Well you got me laughing


Laughing? HEll I was trying be romantic and was hitting on you.......damn book (How to pick up a woman in 4 easy steps) *throws book in garbage*

Glad I made you smile....life is short...act like an idiot!

Thank you, I'm flattered. Best "pick-up" line I've had all day. It's also the Only pick-up line I've had today. What can I expect in a school library?

100% pure maple syrup does double duty here... it flavors and sweetens! I make my cream cheese clouds with maple syrup for this very reason. Yummo.

My body reacts to maple syrup in the same way it reacts to sugar. I use it to cook for others for the reason you mention, but I don't eat it.

No need to explain, really as long as you are feeling good, letting go of fat, generally happy that is what matters/

Just trying not to sound crazy LOL.
I guess it balances out, I am sure ill get days where I need to eat more.
Maple sugar is the same for me, honey too.

[demuralist]

yep, honey too. too much xylitol will cause intestinal problems. I pretty much stick to stevia, because technically I could actually make it at home, if I took the time to grow the plant, make a "tea" out of the leaves and then concentrated it. I guess the same is true of honey and maple syrup but the stevia doesn't give me the negative effects the others do.

[Kymma]

Stevia for me too. I love it now.

Stevia for me too. I love it now.

Where can you get pure Stevia? Truvia is the closest I can find and I think there is something in it besides Stevia.

Yesterday I ate:
BP coffee (I am still torn about stopping this, as I do like it, but it does keep me from being hungry till afternoon).
2 rashers of bacon and guacamole (maybe 1/2 cup, it has sour cream in it).
Tuna with sour cream
Bone broth.

Could I get some ideas on high fat foods...not dairy, I don't do dairy of any kind...It's day 2 and I ate the same things today as I ate yesterday...I can see myself getting real bored REALLY quick and I don't fancy drinking oil as half my food intake for the day.

I do either honey or maple syrup in recipes, nothing else. I don't have a negative effect to them as long as I don't make it a habit to use them every day. Right now, I use 2 tbsp in 12 servings of cream cheese clouds, or 1/4 cup in muffins one day out of the weekend (I only eat 2 of 12 muffins). I don't think I'm consuming very much in that regard.

Oh and I use honey first and foremost since it is unprocessed (can go collect from a hive and use immediately if you're not allergic to bees). Maple syrup needs some processing (cooking) to be usable, so I use it second. I don't trust stevia after reading It Starts with Food. Personal preference, I guess. Fully primal according to Mark.
