Just because death is a normal part of life doesn't mean it isn't painful to
the survivors. Grief is also normal.

Why don't y'all use some of that bitch magic to get some of that
fat
off
your asses?

Because it's bogus?



lol "Will" is the BASIS of spell casting!
"Will" also works for losing our fat fannies. G


Not so far, obviously.



So far, obviously dork!
I've dumped 40 lbs. remember?
I'm also back at the gym 5 days per week!!!

Never heard of traumatic depression?

Try losing your best freind, sister, soulmate and mom all rolled up
into
one. Watching them die slowly of a terminal condition while all you
can
do is stand by helplessly and watch them die.

Life sucks sometimes!


Wiccans are supposed to be more in tune with life cycles. People die.
That's part of life.



Don't even go there...

I know you get off on being an asshole, but I am NOT going to go there
with you. It still hurts too much.

You seem to think it's special, since you said before that bad things
don't happen to everyone.


Who said it's a bad thing? It happens.


It's not bad because it happens? A full life includes tragedy, loss,
sadness and grief.

Why is it necessarily bad? I can think of many cases where it's good.


Ok, sure. Actually, I'm uncomfortable labeling events as "good" or
"bad." There are things we want to happen, and things we don't want to
happen. When something that you don't want happens, it's normal and
natural to feel sad, angry, frustrated, etc. It's also normal to do
out of character things when one is really sad, like eating too much or
too little, sleeping too much or too little, taking time off work or
school, etc. Sometimes emotions are so big that they require all your
energy to process, which means other things temporarily fall by the
wayside, but eventually you move on and return to normal.

We're talking about a diet which encourages bacon, are we not?

Conventional
wisdom would say that eating any fat in a diet is generally a bad idea.

But,
the low-carb method challenges this.


I don't think anyone really encourages bacon, just includes bacon. If you
want encouragement we're talking about fish, asparagus, leaf lettuce, green
beans, celery, cucumbers, radish, cauliflower, etc. Also, the fats in
nuts, avocado, and olives are good for you.

btw, I was talking to my aunt yesterday, she has been low carbing for a
while now. She has RA, fibro and was just diagnosed last week with lupus.
She was telling me that wheat makes her pain worse.

Which is exactly why I brought it up...
It's the reason it's taken me this long to try to get back into shape
again. It was a long, hard road and staying in shape and eating properly
were not my main priorities.

And after the fact, for nearly 3 years, I did not give a rats ass due to
sorrow and depression.

Well, even tho' I still miss her and it still hurts, I've learned to
cope finally and it's time to move on and prioritize what I need to do
to fix my health...

Thanks for understanding Luna! hugs

Spaghetti makes me want to eat more and more even if I'm not hungry...
That's my theory so far. My question is: Is there an Atkins principle or
low-carb reason for the fact that tacos either help me maintain or
encourage weightloss even though mine are laden with fat, and the fact
that spaghetti does not?


Half of Atkins is about food intolerances.


Yup, there's a standard Atkins answer to what you've described.
If you were to follow the directions for Atkins eventually
you would discover that wheat is a binge trigger for you and
that you need to be wheat-free from here on. But! The but
is there are a lot of other ingredients other than wheat and
corn. It might be one you of them not the wheat.


I suggest you go wheat free for at least two weeks and see
how you feel. Then add wheat for a week and see if you get
worse. Then back to wheat free for a double check. You may
be amazed at the difference.


Fascinating. I'll check it out. I'll also do some more reading on the
subject. Do you recommend any good low-carb books out there?


Try the Southbeach diet book, and the Greenwhich diet by Dr. Colgan.
IMHO both are superior to Atkins... A lot of people that do straight
Atkins get constipated.

You already have a problem with that so a true Atkins induction would
probably be a bad idea. lol


For the food intolerance portion the book to get is Doctor
Atkins New Diet Revolution editions 1972, 1993, 1999 or 2002.
South Beach introduces grains early and therefore does little
on the food intolerance front.

You could also google for "texas elimination diet" or other
elimination plans.
