I make my own pasta....now brown rice is just below white rice in the gylcemic index—and then one has to consider glycemic load which is another whole barrel of variables.
I have used Keto recipes to make pasta for type 2 diabetes. Its not semolina but its passable. Have fun. I use wheat gluten and then combinations of Oat fiber, Coconut flour, Almond flour—things like that...
“Sustainably sourced cocoa”. lol
THAT’s what I’m looking for in an Oreo!
These people kill me. ROFL
Pretty much hubby’s standard!
“...will finalize an application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for fast-track approval”
Fast-track approval. Sounds familiar. In a bad way.
Used to be MINE!.......................
Accomplish the same results with diet and exercise...and be healthier for it.
Those who say that does not work simply do not have the will to accomplish the goal...or are their enablers.
See #46 and do not be one of those enablers.
I’ve been on mounjaro for several months, and have lost 30 pounds. My a1c is now in the normal range. Medicare part D pays for most of it (cash price is ~ $1200/month), but it puts me in the dreaded donut hole rather quickly, so that as of this month, it is costing me $250, instead of $47. But it will put me into catastrophic coverage in about 3 or 4 more months, so my cost will then be very little. I reckon that over the year, it’s costing me an average of about $125/month. It completely takes away any thoughts of food, as well as appetite, whereas without it, my mind constantly runs to “I want to eat everything in sight, especially carbs”. Worst side effect? Diarrhea.
Eat real food. Nothing from a box. It works every time.
What model of under the desk elliptical did you get?
Worst side effect? Diarrhea.
That’s a pretty bad side effect for me!
A few years back I went hard on the low carb, 20 a day for a month and then up to 30 the next month. Lost nothing, no inches, no weight. Thing is 30 yrs earlier I had lost 100 lbs on low carb and kept it off for 20 yrs. After nearly 3 months I finally broke out in strange blisters on my hands and had to increase carb intake.
Side effects have been mild nausea, mild constipation, and sluggishness, all of which come and go. You have to be diligent about strength training but especially eating enough protein because you will lose muscle mass if you don't get enough protein and when you have no appetite you simply don't eat enough.
My husband has been Ozempic for a year and lost about 10lbs.
I have been on Victoza for three years and lost 75 pounds. It is also doing an exemplary job of keeping my blood sugar down.
The cubii jr2, I bought one during the black friday sales, bought a different type for my mother but it was too heavy for her to move so I gave her mine, gave that one to my mother in law and bought the jr2 to replace it.
My 86 year old mother has been using one for a couple weeks now and she’s seeing a major improvement in her leg strength, be advised this crazy woman goes to the gym every other day still.
I can’t say enough about under desk ellipticals, as long as they’re used they work miracles.
Not as advertised.
Congrats!
Do not be one of the self righteous that has not walked a mile in someone else’s shoes
“Ozempic and Wegovy — drugs touted by celebrities”
If /when the Pharmas juice them up with some kind of mRNA. I suppose Americans will buy more of them. As it is, I am kinda amazed that weight obsessed couch potatoes will fork out $1400 a month for Ozempic. Which is the one I hear the most about
Only celebs can afford them.................
