Had Another Fat And Sugar Attack
So how did I satisfy it?
Coffee and Molasses
Coffee and molasses? There’s something about those two, especially when the coffee is served black, they just hit it off!
When I Crave Fat And Sugar
Maybe some people only crave fat or only crave sugar. It seems lately that when I crave anything it’s a combination of the two. So what to do between feedings for a simple to prepare snack – when you’ve eaten all your snack bars and the cupboard runs bare?

Extending Autophagy and/or Ketosis
Extending Autophagy and/or prolonging Ketosis Could lead to dependence on fat already stored in cells as fuel sidestepping glucose even when there’s plenty of glucose available. Even when the body should be out of ketosis, due to carbohydrate consumption, ketosis still may occur – even long after the ketosis diet regime was terminated.
Stop Hedging
I’m giving myself choices. I’m not one for eating the same breakfast, lunch or dinner every day. Lots of people are and that’s fine for them. I’m just as happy with leftovers from the night before as someone else is with their oatmeal done the same way every day.
Animal-Free Friday
ANIMAL-FREE FRIDAY MEATLESS MONDAY encourages people to eat other parts of the animal on the one day a week they don’t eat meat.

Cumin – I’m In – Finally
Cumin smells like human male underarm perspiration to me. Makes me wonder why. Does that mean it has testosteronic properties? Or did I make that connection between sweat and cumin by being around people from India who eat a lot of cumin? And the odor comes out their sweat glands.

DON’T PUT AN ANIMAL IN YOUR BODY; DON’T PUT A ROCK IN YOUR GAS TANK
Eating only protein, or only carbohydrates or only fats will not produce a healthier you in the long term. We’ve been led to believe throughout our lives that animals are protein, and everything else are carbohydrates, except for the fat of animals and vegetables. Long ago, fats came only from animals – long before someoneContinue reading “DON’T PUT AN ANIMAL IN YOUR BODY; DON’T PUT A ROCK IN YOUR GAS TANK”

No More All-You-Can-Eat
Some diet advisors suggest that people fill up on low or essentially no calorie, high fiber foods to help lose weight. If you stuff yourself with an all-you-can-eat nearly raw broccoli, the fiber is good for sweeping the intestines, but you may still be hungry in an hour or less.
Compassion, what’s the point?
