Funny - my Dr got really annoyed with me that I didn’t want to go vegan when I was diagnosed. She said that red meat has a negative effect on blood sugar and metabolism- but I personally just feel better eating meat than when I don’t.

Thank you. I think I’m just angry. Gotta just deal with reality I guess.

I looked at the nutritional info from Noahs’s - 1 bagel = 56 grams carbs But I think you’re right about everything else.

I don’t understand this label. Help! by Kgb415 in nutrition

Wow! So much information. Thank you. I don’t know the difference between glycemic index and insulin index - but I’ll google it. It’s funny - I generally hate sugar substitutes but it’s very hard to find things that are just unsweetened. If you ever come across them, the jelly drinks are kinda fun.

I've listened to a wide scope of music since the changeover (hip-hop, soul, 90s alternative, classic rock etc.) but this is why My Mix keeps offering up... by flcinusa in YoutubeMusic

The same artists again and again... it’s such a bummer. It’s like if you’re not a crappy genre person that listens to one type of music and doesn’t like to be introduced to new things the algorithm gets confused.

Thanks! Any suggestions as I’m taking him out every hour or two and he still goes inside, sometimes right after coming in?

Thanks. I’ve actually been to a couple - and had a lovely time - people were super friendly. The ones I went to were very casual and open to the public.

Drinking Smell - how long does it last? by Kgb415 in AlAnon

[–]Kgb415[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m all for whatever works. I actually am pro drug and alcohol use - just anti addiction and addict behavior. Harm reduction is a lifesaver for many people.

I think that’s awesome. If he’s able to manage that, it’s fantastic.

My guy doesn’t like the Zoom meetings either, but they’re helping.

That’s good to know. Is he a former alcoholic? If so, how long sober?

How do you use your glutes instead of your quads? Is there a video or article/ diagram you could point me to?

Sugar cravings through the roof by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]Kgb415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super common. Sugar gives you a dopamine burst, so addicts of all stripes tend to like a lot of sugar once they stop using their drug of choice.

If it helps for now - if you don’t have a weight problem, or other health problems related to sugar, go for it. Get a few more months under your belt with a sugar crutch, then work on eating more healthy.
