Lisa, I am going to order the book off amazon today. Hope it's doesn't use too many technical words. But I am very interested in learning more.

Good Luck, Barb! While you are at it, can you put a GPS on your L & P so you can find them in 10 days. This roaming about on vacation has to be controlled!

If I try to do that, I may never find them!

Extra Huge and Special Prayers for Nell and Marti - this too shall pass and we will do all we can to help you through! You could come live with me but Im afraid all I have to offer is an upstairs bedroom too.DARN it!

Barb - I have complete faith that you will be able to get it right and not let anybody LOOSE on the innocent public! All this "downsizing" has caused alot of extra work for me too, lots of paperwork that was done by another department has been dumped back in our laps, with no extra time or money to get it done. My sympathies are with you!

Lisa - I think the stirred up squash and pumpkin sounds outstanding!!
I know we are all cool here, but I just wanted to be sure I was not stepping on toes, giving out incorrect information , or sounding like I know what Im doing! Cuz of course we know I dont!!

No GPS locator for MY L and P, I would be just as happy if they went on vacation and got LOST somewhere!!

Laura - I get Fatigued just listening to you TALk about all your Zumba classes!! You are my Exercise Hero!!

Kathy - I am praying that the lack of bad news is a good sign too! Maybe somewhere in that mess Common Sense and Decency will prevail!

Pony Girl, All of the above LOL!!

 

[Barb F.]

Georgia Lee just sent me a very nice email letting me know I've been missed. I'm not quite sure how to respond so I'm going to wait until I know.

I know you'll find the right thing to say. YOU said it perfectly for me on a previous post here. You said how important it was for you to be able to share personal things and the atmosphere over there changed so you felt embarrassed for sharing so much. With all the new and unknown people over there, we couldn't do what we do here so well.

Thank you for the info Tutu! It looks like Met B, chronic fatigue, adrenal exhaustion and everything in that category are all interconnected. Isn't it a blessing that we are all on a healing path.

Kathy, your not giving yourself enough credit. I think you'll understand the book fine. Your a very bright woman!

Barb, good thing your getting the practice with the GPS monitoring. Before long we're all going to need them on our L & P's. And it looks like adrenals also.

Ok, honest opinions here. I do have some of the ice cream bars. Are they allowed or not? I have only had 3 over the past couple weeks, so it's not an ever day kind of thing. Not like my jello and whipped cream
But if it is not a good thing, I have no problem not eating them. Just want to do this right.

My honest opinion is that Diane said "welcome back to ice cream" about step two. I would not use ice cream on step one at all. I know some people do, but I wouldn't be comfortable with it.

Do You Have Adrenal Fatigue?

When the adrenal glands are not functionining optimally, you can have a condition that is known as adrenal fatigue, or adrenal exhaustion. Adrenal fatigue often develops after periods of intense or lengthy physical or emotional stress, when overstimulation if the glands leave them unable to meet your body's needs.

Some other names for the syndrome include non-Addison's hypoadrenia, sub-clinical hypoadrenia, hypoadrenalism, and neurasthenia.

Symptoms include:
excessive fatigue and exhaustion
non-refreshing sleep (you get sufficient hours of sleep, but wake fatigued)
overwhelmed by or unable to cope with stressors
feeling rundown or overwhelmed
craving salty and sweet foods
you feel most energetic in the evening
a feeling of not being restored after a full night's sleep or having sleep disturbances
low stamina, slow to recover from exercise
slow to recover from injury, illness or stress
difficulty concentrating, brain fog
poor digestion
low immune function
food or environmental allergies
premenstrual syndrome or difficulties that develop during menopause
consistent low blood pressure
extreme sensitivity to cold


Geez!!! and I thought I was tired from doing a million zumba classes a week. LOL!!!

Thank you Nell. All misconceptions I had are now cleared up thanks to you, Robin, and Barb. So much from the other forum has messed me up thinking way. I will be copying the chart and putting it in my purse for shopping and one in the kitchen as well.
I did go over "yonder" today. I honestly don't see myself over there. Aggie said she is going to email Diane about suggestions about making it a better site. I just don't see me there. I will go over once in a while, but that's about it.

But I still love disney!!

What's wrong with ****s? That's not a cuss word! That's something we have attached to us.

Well, except for Tom.

I love that song!! You have to dance to it at your wedding someday! I am covered in goosebumps.

I was just reading that stress increases cortisol which increases insulin. That makes sense because insulin is also known as the hunger hormone. So when we're stressed that's why we get carb cravings, our insulin level goes up. Pretty cool to begin understanding all of this.

Lisa, I emailed the place that you gave me the link to. I'm hoping it will be ok with my insulin resistance to try that supplement.
