Yay! my cushions are finally sellling ^_^ I finally got permission to post about them on a forum I'm on, on I think Wednesday, and I've already got orders for 5 o_O Only problem is that my pot pourri just doesn't want to take on the scent so that at the moment, my cinnamon smells like cloves and nutmeg, my vanilla smells like buttercream (which is ( Read more... )

hey, looked you up after your post on carb less at food porn. Looks like you didn't get quite what you asked for and to avoid another rant on diets, give me a few more specifics and I'll go through my recipes and send you some. Can i also assume that you are as busy during the day as the rest of us and things that are quick to make or make great left overs would be appreciated? Tell me a bit about your IBS- salad not good but are cooked greens okay? What kind of veggies are considered 'carbs' (like white potatoes are considered carb, but I think sweet potatoes might not be?) Anyway, would love to help out if you're interested. And yeah, having a male dog myself, what's up with that? I mean really, how big is a dog's bladder?

Hiya! I haven't forgotten to email you, I promise, it's just been seeeeriously hectic here and I haven't gotten much time to reply to anything much. I'm putting together a list of what ingredients i've found that I can eat and are low carb so as soon as I've got that, I'll email it to you if that's ok?

On the plus side, although everyone on the food_porn coom was telling me how bad this kind of a diet is, I've lost nearly a stone (not sure if you're British or not but in case you're not, a stone is 14lbs) and am feeling better than I have in a long time, and it would appear that, as my doc theorised, my IBS actually WAS down to eating carbs, as since I went off carbs as much as possible (allowing a tiny bit a day as the doc said), I can finally eat salad greens again without pain! Yay! However, I have found out, fennel is gross. ^_^

Thankye muchly for the support! It's great to have people around that aren't constant ranters :)

Is it ok if I add you?

Hey! Glad to see the lunatics didn't scare you away entirely. If people would just realize that anything taken to an extreme is not a good thing well, that's another soapbox. YES add me (and I'll add you back) if you really wanna hear all about my family, kids, hobbies and such. I'd love to get that email about foods that work and such. My oldest child has learning problems - in there with Attention Deficit and borderline autistic and dislexic. We are going to try a diet modification. Some experts reccommend a wholly protein breakfast and not introducing carbs and fruits until lunch and round the day out with a veggie packed dinner and more protein, something about how the brain functions in relation to metabolism. But bacon and eggs gets really boring. So I am definitely looking for good low carb recipes and not traditionally breakfast foods ( ... )

Hi there! Stalk away, the more the merrier! ^_^

Thanks for the links and advice, there's some really useful info there. I showed my mum your reply and, goodness knows why, but somehow in the last couple of weeks she's become and olive oil and lemon pepper fiend. Hmmmmm, I wonder why *heehee*!

As I mentioned to the person above, contrary to the reports everyone over on food_porn was giving, I feel better than ever now I'm used to this diet (which for someone with M.E. and IBS is a biiiig thing), and it seems to be sorting out some of my food problems as things I couldn't eat before, I'm suddenly able to eat again, I even managed 1/4 glass of milk the other day!!! O_O (to put that into perspective, around the time I developed M.E., and at the same time, IBS, I also suddenly became unable to drink milk AT ALL, it gave me a severe reaction)

So yeah, that's my ramble over with for now, before I get too hyper lol, but as I say, feel free to say hi whenever ya want, I love to chat :D

Awwwwwwww hun! *hugs* No worries about it, I just wanted to be sure our postie hadn't decided to filch it or something (they tend to do that a lot round here so I always follow up on posts after about a week, just to be sure something hasn't been swiped again).

I don't think anyone will hold it against you, after all, it's been less than a week, and a lot of people take much much MUCH longer than that to send things out. And besides, you have a very good reason for the delay, which is more than a lot of people do (it usually comes down to 'I forgot'). If you want to, I could post for you on the comm, save you having to email everybody, if that'd help. You could draft a message and I can post it on the feedback comm. Just thought it might save some of the time you could spend resting and getting yourself better :)

Hope you feel better soon hun, and don't worry, I don't think anyone will be mad, and if they are, it's just them being petty :P xx
