I got the grill going and quick smoked the Salmon and a cast iron skillet on the outdoor wok stove for some not so Blackened Shrimp. I poured melted Butter all over it and called it Dinner. :yum: :cowboy_hat_face:

Try Allulose. Bakes like sugar and no cooling effect

@David_Stilley, @monsterjuice, I used the following recipe: https://www.delish.com/cooking/nutrition/a29872749/keto-lasagna-recipe/

It was a combination of mozzarella and cream cheese with some egg. It was super easy to do. The recipe site also had an instructional video which is helpful.

Dinner. Mushroom kielbasa frittata and lemon arugula. A few berries and cream, 3 sweet potato fries

Thanks, @Janie. I’m working off a new cookbook by All Day I Dream of Food, and she mentions Allulose quite a bit, but did say it can cause serious gastrointestinal distress and I just know that’s going to be me. I’m already battling chronic (5-6 weeks now) bowel issues now. Thank you though for the suggestion. I’m just scared to try it at the moment. In fact, I probably should lay off all sweets until things calm down.

#1291

Oh my, that looks and sounds delicious!

Slippery little suckers!

Yes you have both been unwell, I am so glad you are feeling better.

Absolutely! Apart from a bit of nose blowing I slept for 10 hours! Pure bliss, and I feel much better.
I’m hoping to get tested though to get back to work. But the testing is a bit chaotic still!
:blush: Thank you all for your good wishes!

A (very strong) Bulletproof Coffee & Exogenous Ketones Breakfast of champions!

After a couple of very wobbly days, these exos are really helping my moods and energy levels.

I hadn’t heard that but not surprised. It’s too expensive to chance buying a bag and find out it causes problems.

(Candy Lind) #1295

I usually eat more when I feel bad. Probably just another bad eating habit of 65 years. Feel better soon! :kissing_heart: xo

I suspect you always fix too much just so you can share. :thinking::smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

David, there’s a finger-poke test for antibodies that’s pretty readily available here in TX. Not sure what your situation is, but I would be happy to know if I’d already had it.

Not for me. Wheat got me into this mess, & I don’t care how they play with it in the lab, it’s never knowingly going in my body again. I can’t see anything in there that would actually be healthy, and if you started eating keto to regain health, it’s probably a step backwards.

('Jackie P') #1296

Thank you @CandyLindTX. I am having a Covid test tomorrow am.
Feel a bit better today🙂

(Jane) #1297

:crossed_fingers: it is negative! How long to get results back?

(Candy Lind) #1298

Back to food instead of bugs! LOL I’m finishing off some deli roast beef in a chafflewich with the requisite pickles and romaine. Baking up some chicken thighs for myself and hubby, who comes home today. I’m a bit grumpy because the guy I tried helping by hiring him to personal shop for me got boneless skinless thighs when I was looking forward to making bone broth! :rage: YOU’RE FIRED. :rofl:

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death …
*Sigh *
Is this a picture of today’s eggs, yesterday’s eggs, or tomorrow’s eggs. Much like the flukes on a rising whale, the only way to tell the difference is by looking at the clever pepper pattern

Fairly tired of isolation, and praying for the recovery of all those who are more impacted by Covid then by my sorry boredom.

If it’s pure erythritol, try adding some stevia. Many say they don’t like erythritol because of the cooling & many say they don’t like stevia due to bitter aftertaste, but somehow both of those traits are cancelled out when used together.

(Karen) #1301

Good to know they cancel each other out because I don’t like either for the reasons you just described.

#1302

Thanks, @CandyLindTX. I have liquid stevia, and also liquid Stevia Glycerite coming from Amazon Friday. I know liquid stevia is pretty concentrated, just not sure how much to substitute. This is all so new to me. Not sure what exactly the difference is between the liquid and glycerite, but many of the recipes listed it. Thank you for your help.

#1303

Couldn’t agree more. I can only tell quickly what part of the week it is by which side my estrogen patch is on. Lol. Sigh.

#1304

I’m not going to have anything new today because I have too many leftovers. Sigh. Unless I make a keto bread​:dancer:, but only if my delivery of new ingredients show up :face_with_monocle: It’s a crappy cold drizzly day here.

(Mame) #1305

on the other hand if it’s positive it sounds like you had a nice mild case!! so really it’s win/win I think.
And I am really hoping antibodies will provide future immunity.
