I think I'll go make me a mug of bouillon.

I bought some avocados and apparently they are Florida ones and they are higher in carbs?? They have more fiber though and more protein. How? Why? Waaaaa.... I want to eat a whole one and not knock my carbs outta wack.

I guess I thought all avocados were the same...

[demuralist]

The Florida ones have more water too. Not quite as tasty, but when I lived in Florida, much easier to find and cheaper too.

Jen, I thought they were all the same too.. but no. California ones are the black bumpy ones and Florida's are the pretty smooth green ones. Grrr double grrr.. I could eat a whole calif. but only a 1/2 florida one. That is just not right.

Here... *hands over avocado* you can have mine. I'm finding I still don't like them, after 2 weeks of eating them.

Me too. And those cream cheese clouds sound amazing!!

I live in FL, and I'm here to tell you... those big FL avocados are an ABOMINATION!



Seriously though... I won't even eat them if they are free.
Avos are supposed to be fatty and creamy and good.
F* those things.
Gimme the real deal!
Either Cali or Mexican is fine... little ugly fellas.
Those big smooth things aren't worth putting in the cart.

*note: locally you can get some little ugly-fatty Avo Mexican hybrids that withstand the cold and are very tasty, but I don't think they grow enough of those down south to make it very marketable. Those are small local truck farm and yard trees.

Thanks a bunch Pebbles!

Downloaded the calorie count app this morning.. it's hating me. I went over my saturated fat limit in my coffee

Okay now DH is sleeping like he's been drugged. He went to bed at his usual time and slept until the alarm went off, he never does that and he said he was dead asleep went the alarm sounded. It must be the oil, perhaps I should post this on the SLA thread. We are both on the GAPS diet, but we've been on it for several weeks so I don't think that's the cause.

I have that not so tasty tinny taste in the back of my mouth. It makes me want to eat something to get rid of it... will this taste last forever??

I wish I'd grabbed my ketosticks this morning. Would love to see what color I'd pee today.

I've had that taste too. It didn't last a long, long time. Someone else on the forum described it as "like you've been sucking on pennies".
