It's an herb. Your grok self would just grab some stevia leaves off the plant. You've got an option of buying the actual plants as herbs, or getting crushed leaf stevia (which is green) or...

This is how I see IF as a weight loss strategy. Just my $0.02, I don't claim to be an expert, blah blah.

I do use the calories in/out concept for weight loss, and it worked fine for me. It's up...

Yeah, probably electrolyte issues. Mark's talked about it on the blog, I think in the marathon fuel post?

I've been dealing with the same thing. I got some concentrated mineral salt stuff from a...

Just saw this thread resurface, thought I'd update on me-land. :) I sure was a hardcore sugar addict at one point.

And I am braindead due to low carb flu of the braaaaain, at the moment. So I...

I'm using some, but I could use more. Can't hurt. Thanks. :)

I've cut my carbs down a bit to aid ADHD/depression issues and I'm having a brain foggy low carb flu.

My brain is kind of not great in terms of clear thinking, focus and concentration,...

Shit happens. Best advice for how to cope:

1)Don't stress it too much. Torturing yourself psychologically makes everything needlessly worse. Just move on. Nobody's perfect, and no one has to...

Glad my ADHD rambling yielded some useful info. :cool:

Ok, I think I've got my answer figured out.

So FYI for anyone who may do a search for this topic in the future:

I think in my case, my brain-not-awake has been highly aggravated by the...

I've been meaning to do a google search on it, haven't had time/brainspace. I'm curious myself. Related- it's tough to make ice cream with stevia as a sweetener in those (awesome) cuisinart home...

Glad I could be some help. :)

I know what it's like to be doing everything right foodwise and just NOT losing those last 20. I was there for a good 18 months and it was NOT fun. I was busting...

Having actually READ some of the thread now, I'd add:

I'm also 5'6-5'7ish and my comfort weight is 120 (but I have a light build.) I also struggled with that last 20lbs. Calorie counting and a...

I second the creme fraiche rec. There's also clotted cream, though I'm not sure how it differs. Any kind of Whole Foods-type food store will carry creme fraiche for sure. Helps if you're in a...

Well, to be honest, calorie counting was THE thing that made it easy for me to lose weight and easily maintain an ideal weight. But I am a control freak, lol, I enjoy knowing EXACTLY what I'm eating...

You know. If it it's a latte fix you're after, I discovered a weird thing about stevia.

Which you may also dislike or not tolerate, but just for general info:

If you get the white powder...

You're a lucky American, Neckhammer. :cool: Canadians don't appear to have TJs. But I could probably suck it up and part with 20 bucks.

sbhikes- Good point about using it as a moisturizer. ...

Thanks for the info. :) Some further questions:

Catharsis-

Do I need to do fish oil supplements to get the omega 3s? I already eat fish every day, but not terribly fatty fish (mostly...

(And I just noticed the typo in the post title, should read 'a question', not 'questions'. See what I mean about brain-not-awake? :cool: )

I did a quick google search of MDA.com for info on...

I do as well. :D Forgot about those.

They are totally porntastic, but it's some great beach/hammock/evening on the deck with glass of wine reading.

Nion-

Hi from a recent ex-Vancouverite. (I'm moving to Vic pretty soon, so all your tips are transferable.) I was already doing the Asian markets for produce, but I never thought of going to the...

YES. This. :D These are the best escapist reading ever.

The True Blood novels aren't half bad either. (And check out Snoop Dogg's 'love song' to Sookie, it's pretty classic.)

My favoritest...

I'm an adult with (very recently diagnosed) ADD. But even given my recent diagnosis, I have noticed that my inattentive ADD (and my mood issues in general) have improved vastly since I've been off...

Well, consider that being overweight, routinely overeating, getting little exercise, eating shite (as you noted), eating out often (which is $$$ that you really don't need to spend for food that...

Okay, so. Day 45! Awesomecakes. Or, I guess more primal-esque... awesomesteak. Actually, I wouldn't mind a steak... maybe I can score one for the bbq tonight. Salmon steaks are good too.

The...

Lol! Well, me too. I just got sufficiently high on sugar to not have to bother with anything else. But otherwise.. yep. :)

Also, congrats on your sobriety! :D How long has it been now?
