There is a bag of macadamia nuts six feet away


(Scott) #1

and I am supposed to avoid snacking between meals (he looks up at the clock and its 10:10)


(Alex ) #2

dont do it Scott!


#3

Put those delicious temptresses out of sight.

when you eat all the nuts you have there will be no more nuts to eat.

To funny, my wife said to me before I left the house “do we have macadamia nuts at the office”. So you see it is an endless supply.

We work together, keto together and today is our 38th anniversary not even counting the years we dated in high school…

I had a thought (dangerous as it may be) maybe I am craving the salt as I don’t feel very hungry. I got up and grinded some salt into my palm and popped it in my mouth. (clock says 10:40 now)

So happy to see another couple!
My husband and I do it all together also. Congratulations on your anniversary! Happy anniversary. :slight_smile:

I’ll see your macadamias and raise you a jar of Marcona almonds, three inches too far for me to get at without moving my desk chair.


(You've tried everything else; why not try bacon?) #9

But now you have all that fantastic keto energy to use for chair-moving! :rofl::rofl:

I actually made it without dipping into macadamia heaven, getting busy helped. I am now eating an avocado that has the meat taken out mixed with olive oil mayo and tuna packed in oil. Mixed up and placed back in the two halfs. This is accompanied by a hard boiled egg and a side of pork rinds getting dipped in pimento cheese. Who says keto can’t be fun!

You are enjoying yourself entirely too much, you know that? :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

I was out in the garden 2 hours ago (lunch time here now) picking [spoiler]potatoes and corn[/spoiler] and I only had 2 small bites of [spoiler]corn[/spoiler]. I’ll probably do [spoiler]baked potatoes[/spoiler] in garlic butter for Mrs Grumpy’s dinner tonight. Maybe pour some of the garlic butter over my dinner.

Head cold still awful but I did mange to drop a full pound last night. The reduced fat breakfast research continues.

Pretend the nuts are sugar-coated and throw them away. Or give them away if you can’t do that.


(Alex ) #15

did you cave into the nuts?!


(Scott) #16

I went the whole day without and yes they are still here.


(Alex ) #17

easy peezy!

Yes I would avoid the snacks, not worth it lol.


(Alex ) #19

…especially on a Friday… when that Friday feeling kicks in…

Normally I try to sneak a six pack of corona light into the fridge and pick them off one.
