Hello Ladies,
I'm in northern Michigan. It has been - 6 below today and going down to around -15 to -20 below tonight. We live in an area that is remote. We don't have a Y or anthing like that. I must do selective exercise, as I've had replacement in both knees and I cannot kneel. Once down, it is very difficult to get up again. I can't get out to the car to go anywhere as the ground is too slippery, frozen and lumpy. My husband and grandson made a path about 1 1/2 feet wide, but it is too dangerous for me to walk on it. My hubby puts ice melt and salt on it, but it won't melt as it's too cold. My hubby of 56 years does the grocery shopping and gets anything else we need from town. He is pretty frisky for his age.
Janet & Kristine, I did read that article by Dr.Davis's in his book "Wheat Belly". I just didn't know what product King Arthur used to make Gluten Free Flour, as I had taken the flour out of the box & tossed the box away, and I put the flour in a glass air tight jar. Know I know, and I won't use it again. I think my daughter has the book Protein Power and also The South Beach Diet. I'll borrow her books and get a little more educated. Kristine, how wonderful for your father to have someone who is helping him eat healthy and he is staying active.
Janet, I'm going to give it a try and make the cauliflower soup using coconut milk. That is an interesting combination. LOL.
Teresaw, are you posting from Italy? If you are Italian, you know what carb addiction is. *smile*. I made spaghetti today for my hubby, and it was so hard for me not to eat a bowl or two, but I did refrain, and only took about a teaspoon of it. I just had to have a little bite.
I found the strength to resist, because of all you wonderful ladies. I couldn't wait to get on this gadget and see your messages and post a reply to you.
Every day I will get a little stronger, and I'll do it this time.
We will all do it together!!
