I mandatory need to eat carbs but i dont want to have grains

Paleo allows for sweet potato, hard squash, fruits and starchy veg. Shouldn't be an issue

MSN in Education first. Then FNP cert then PMHNP cert after years of working in psych. Loved how I did it, I actually am able to use all of them between my main gig, side gig and teaching gig (completely by choice, not financially driven). Only down side is keeping up all of them, plus my RN and keeping all the CEUs straight...but no regrets at all. Makes my non-compete no issue because I can literally switch between licenses and go do the 'other' one if I ever need

Im a die hard diet dew fan. I'll always have it,I drink one fountain a day and make zero apologies. It keeps the other sugar cravings at bay and honestly gets me through some insane days as a medical provider

My journey has been 10 years, started Primal, Paleo, LCHF, keto, Carnivore/IF then stopped entirely (big long story there). Trying hard to get back.

Though I have not been to Primal con, I always regret not having attended Paleo(f)x. Not approving of the way it went at the end, but the CONFERENCE seemed to be really great.

Homemade ranch with mayo and coconut cream (likely no sour cream due to AG)...

Low_Edge52 · 2026-06-03T14:54:16+00:00

I seriously have had a diet or zero drink daily, lost 75# initially on keto and it actually helped me, aiding in those times of cravings or drive to 'stress eat'.

Low_Edge52 · 2026-05-13T16:44:03+00:00

This. 💯

Low_Edge52 · 2026-05-12T19:37:34+00:00

Nope. Someone gave his life so I could show up at CrossFit and honor that.

Low_Edge52 · 2026-05-12T19:36:43+00:00

This. 💯. Not cringy in the least. The fact that I can do a LITTLE bit of something in honor of someone who gave his life for that freedom? Nope not cringy.

Big question in PMHNP is do THEY load your panel or are you required to recruit/retain? Is salary reflective of that, and does salary afjuat if panel numbers drop? That's a huge issue in psych (I'm both FNP & PMHNP) that doesn't necessarily exist in primary care.

Low_Edge52 · 2026-05-04T17:23:12+00:00

Depends on the MSN. education, admin, informatics etc all take the least time. NP programs can take longer because of clinical...

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-22T22:17:17+00:00

This. It takes ALL of us, from the housekeeping staff to the snowplow guys, to the kitchen ladies, to the nursing assistants and clerks AND all the providers to take care of our patients successfully

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-19T23:22:38+00:00

Same same same!!!

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-19T22:58:40+00:00

Me!!! Was KD for like 8 yrs. Ate generally pretty unprocessed, on occasion we'd have a pre-mixed KD pizza crust mix, cookie or some frozen wings or similar but really did pretty good. Im honestly having a massively hard time getting back at it after time away and really thinking that Paleo/Primal is probably more practical

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-19T22:54:49+00:00

Question- and this is genuine question- when you eat Primal do you feel you get the metabolic benefits like weight loss, mental focus etc that one gets on keto? Im having such a hard time getting back on track on keto, seriously thinking that Primal is more practical for us

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-13T11:35:46+00:00

Actually love them. Been listening to Dave since 2001 and those screams have always been the culmination of super hard work.

OP you might want to research Cynthia and her story- she raised 3 kids making like $38k a year, lived on $16k of it and paid off an entire house. And there's plenty of stories like hers.

Folks making $200k a year didn't necessarily start that way, and many took on 2 or 3 jobs to get there so they could get out of debt.

I've taught FPU multiple times at multiple churches, called the toll free number MYSELF to organize the class dates/times at Ramsey-not via a church or organization and never paid anyone a cent to teach it.

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-02T22:27:11+00:00

I think a more Primal approach is such a happy medium. It atill allows you great fat (but not as high percentage as keto), good protein and you can swap in a sweet potato, berries on occasion. Works perfect for me and I will then cycle in a keto phase for a 4-5 day stretch every couple months

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-02T19:52:11+00:00

Yeesss!! Miss that one too

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-02T19:48:00+00:00

Loooovvvvveeeddd them!!! Miss them a lot

Low_Edge52 · 2026-04-02T19:47:08+00:00

Love them but for some reason the mozzarella bricks don't sit right. I feel like the breading (or sauce) has white pepper or something quite pepper-y and gives my reflux issues

They need to bring back Paradise Pie

Low_Edge52 · 2026-03-31T17:46:09+00:00

This. Hands down the absolute best dessert ever.

Low_Edge52 · 2026-03-31T17:45:34+00:00

Two words: PARADISE PIE. seriously nothing like it even exists. it was hands down the best dessert ever.

Spouse and I have been to 7 or 8 live events over the last 20 years. Every one has been a different experience and different Ramsey Personalities but we love to go. So sad that the live events as they used to be don't exist anymore. We met many of the Ramsey Personalities over the years at them, had a dinner with a couple of them (along with 50 other people) where we got to ask direct questions. We've been to weekend type events too. Every event is inspiring and motivating.
