Grandma...made meals for diabetic grandpa...said,
"Breakfast is gold, lunch is silver, dinner is lead and anything after that is concrete!"
She was a spunky, active lady who lived to 101.

My doctor once told me, "Most people have their idea of eating backwards. For Breakfast you should eat like a King. Lunch you should eat like a Prince. And Dinner you should eat like a Pauper." In other words, breakfast should be your biggest meal because you'll have the entire day to work it off. Lunch should be medium and Dinner should be your lightest. Your grandma was wise.

Quite the shock then huh? It will do that to ya. Why did you decide to go that short then? I know it probably won't help now but once you have a few days, maybe even a week to get used to it, you may find that you love it. And it isn't permanent. It is temporary because it will grow back out.

I wanted to lose a couple of pounds.
It worked!


I actually volunteered my hair for this.
I agreeded to what ever they wanted EXCEPT Conan colors.

Going out now to work on flower beds...my order of hosta, day lilies and iris came this week. I need to get them in the ground!

Crazy Crttr beat me to it.
If you don't like it the hair will grow back
My hair was always short and permed sometimes just past the chin. Easy do for work. Now it is longer than I ever had before...takes less time to ponytail or bun it.

I used to have long hair but my hair is very thick and naturally curly. When it got to the point that I was constantly putting it up in a bun or ponytail, that's when I started to get the itch to chop it. The weight of it was starting to hurt my head and give me headaches. I look back at pictures from a few yrs ago and sometimes miss it but the ease of being able to mousse and go is just as easy to me.

A small reward is much sweeter than a big binge where you are just stuffing it down.

As a diabetic, I try to eat four to six small meals during the day to help balance out the blood sugar during the day.
Breakfast, mid morning snack (a piece of fruit, raw veggie or handful of nuts), lunch, mid afternoon snack (yogurt or sugar free jello or celery and peanut butter), dinner, bedtime snack (something light...jello pudding or a Glucerna shake).
I keep pecans, almonds or raw peanuts on the table so I can grab a quick handful between tasks and I keep a thermos bottle of ice water on the table as well.
Cut up raw veggies like carrots celery or Swiss chard make quick snacks.
Cold fruit...1/2 Apple or peach or banana or a handful of frozen seedless grapes are cooling snacks.

Thank you!! This is very helpful!! I need to eat smaller meals and light snacks like that.

My hair is really thick and curly too. Have to shower or at least brush it every single day or it practically turns to dreads LOL well not really but will knot. how short did you cut it? My family used to always want me to cut it and said it would look good short but I like my curls lol

 

[Conan]

Yes. I'm heading there in an hour to finish getting my hair did.
Icy blonde.

I feel naked I said!

Well, I suppose feeling naked on video is better than being actually naked on video... Right?

You should do cinnamon colored hair. It would look bonkers good with your green eyeballs.
