You might as well asked for coffee and popcorn!

You guys are going to love this! My doctor is fine with coffee. And at my last appt, he suggested I consider adding oats and popcorn to my diet. And this from a doctor who is normally against these types of carbs. I think he wants my weight loss to slow a tad.

And meats are weird, so much variability. I can eat shrimp and scallops, but not crab. I can eat chicken, pork and steak, but cant tolerate any ground meats!

The ground meats are the most confusing. My theory is because no mater how much I chew ground meat I can never get it to a near Water like consistency before swallowing like I can with other cuts.

I actually enjoy popcorn occasionally. It has to be a specific brand, called Slim Kim's. Any other brand bothers me, Including home made. I actually find it stirs up my metabolism a bit- perhaps by confusing my body- and breaks any stall I am in- and it stimulates the bowels when it's been too long between them. I'm not suggesting this for anyone else, just seems to work for me.

Ground meats? Same issue. Can't tolerate them at ALL.

Hey!! Here's a riddle for you-- what happens when you mix a Spartan with a Wildcat?

Somehow or another you end up with a Hawkeye. Lol. Having that put in a Tshirt for parents weekend at Iowa.
