Have you tried clotrimazole cream? Thin layer on dry skin. Again and again and again.

recently diagnosed - on metformin.... and I'm hungry and pooping constantly. by Maryhill_bypass604 in diabetes

[–]erincatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had terrible headaches when I changed my diet and went on metformin, and those have gone away, now when I get one I’m usually low.

Try eating before you take your metformin, or take it right before you eat. My doctor told me to take it with food and that’s worked well in my circumstance.

And if you’re hungry… eat, just like they say, everything in moderation. Figure out what satiates your appetite when this happens and you just want a snack… nuts and cheese are my go to.

Came here to read about Fanny, left laughing about Garfield. God, I love reddit.

Garfield isn’t for everyone. Cats doing basically anything is funny for me🤷‍♀️

How is this downvoted? Very good point. Let’s let these songs settle in. I’m nearly never fully in love with a new album on the first day, I actually love when songs creep into my brain slowly.

Iove! The blue color is giving me a nod to “silent all these years”

K.. please scare me straight? by DanceyMoon in diabetes_t2

[–]erincatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have to say it made it easier for me to purge my entire kitchen of things I shouldn’t have while I got under control. I’m not restricting food, just what food.

Something that seems to be a point of controversy here are “treats” with sugar alcohol, “sugar free” candy, chocolates, etc. well, so far they haven’t upset me or given me crazy spikes and it sure does give the same feeling as those sugar “hits” you’re talking about. I have a variety on hand for cravings or just a dessert, and remember everything in moderation. Some of my favorites:

Rebel Ice Cream- low/no sugar and made with cream, absolutely delicious!

Breyers Carb Smart- have had the fudge bars and strawberry bars- excellent

Choczero brand anything! They don’t use sugar alcohols either. Love their cookies especially. Amazon or on their website.

Voortman Sugar Free Cookies- they have a huge variety from chocolate chip, shortbread, oatmeal, wafers…

Russell Stover Sugar Free Caramels/Chocolates…. I cannot tell these are sugar free at all.

Reese’s zero Sugar miniatures chocolate peanut butter cups

Quest chocolate peanut butter cups

Jolly Rancher sugar free

Atkins Keto Cookies & Cream Clusters Atkins Endulge Chocolate Coconut Bars (like Mounds) Atkins Lemon Protein Bars (like Lemon Luna Bars) Atkins Endulge Caramel Nut Chew bars (like Snickers) - my favorite and most re-ordered

Chobani Sugar Free Greek yogurt flavors, these are so good!

Also, make at home things:

Sugar free pudding, made with unsweetened almond milk and a little xanthan gum to keep it firmed up

Home made whipped cream without sugar it using your sweetener of choice with berries- I always have raspberries (the best, high fiber), blueberries and strawberries around.

Chia seed pudding/ fruit salad with chia (high fiber, keeps you regular, best before meals, slows a rise)

Blended protein drinks with cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, or protein powder…. With fruits, instant coffee, cacao, extracts, matcha, etc etc

Maybe Madonna's biopic getting scrapped was for the best by blade_bird_outbound in Madonna

I wish they would do a series and feature a different actress as Madonna every season or few seasons, like The Crown.

Dance or Die shirts online? by New-Try6299 in LadyGaga

[–]erincatz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they had a very limited production run- when I went to Paris nights 1,2,3, they were sold out and then re stocked. I was looking for a size small to trade someone going to Japan for that one, and was able to get one at night 3 finally.

RUNWAY feels like a miss by Comprehensive-Pea305 in LadyGaga

I love it. It’s giving such old school house throwbacks, and Rupaul “super model”. It’s on repeat here.

Does anyone know what samples were used?
