🔥Extra! Extra! WE ARE ABOUT IT✅

Snap out of what? It legit says in the notes that he wanted to retest in a few months and yes I know the numbers have gotten worse. But it doesn’t have to be one or the other. It can be both.

What I meant by snap out of it was don't continue to wait for somebody (him) to tell you what to do.

Ohhhh okay. Well in that case I’m not lol and sorry if you got that idea I’m already changing things. I’m definitely not waiting. I was just saying what it said on the site thing.

I have a 5" cast iron skillet that I use to make a single Dutch baby pancake.

Me too! DB wouldn’t shut up about micro plastics tho so I got a reusable one to pacify him

So I have been called the conservative capitalist since i recycle and compost and grow some of my own food….and work in the investment business…kind of an oxymoron…. These bottles never break down. The payback for convenience is this crap filling landfills that doesnt break down. My grandmother would whoop my A**!! Crunchy rant over.

I keep a bottle of water in my pillows. Before bed, when I first wake up and whenever I wake up during the night, I take some drinks. Helps me fall back asleep a bit faster and I've noticed my nightmares aren't quite as vivid or terrifying when ice had water right before sleep. Not sure if it's related or not, but I won't complain

Well those night terrors might have something to do with you filling those bottles with vodka vs water….

I'm not going to point fingers, but if you pay for water in a single serve... I'll stop there. How are you alive? What fluid do you imbibe? We spend insane amounts of money to clean and filter water, why pay more to drink some other cities municipal supply? Why support a company that decided to profit off of a natural aquifer? Filter your own tap water. It's simple, you worried about pharmaceutical contamination? Charcoal filter. Everything else is covered by a Berkey system. I can't grasp buying single serve plastic water from Jersey (aquafina).
End rant.

Totally agree….and I think I love you

Capitalism beats the h e double hockey sticks out of socialism.

I definitely love you…

My grandmother always said that. She drank (and still drinks) a minimum of 5 Cokes a day

There used to be cocaine in those cokes…someone should tell your granny

Wrong is wrong, regardless of the label. The US is a capitalist country, can't argue that point.

Yep the US is the creator of capitalism…we are the envy of the world and also garner a ton of ridicule which some of it is deserved. Some countries hate us, but most want what we have. only difference between capitilsm and communism is the pockets the money flows to and the concentration of wealth and who decides how it is spent. Sorry…capitalist rant over.

There’s classes!?

absolutley. also search on YouTube to see if there are any doctors that lecture or do videos. I learned a ton about intermittent fasting on YouTube from Dr. Jason Fung.

Huh, interesting! Those would probably be good.

Yeah, I’m really bad about the being proactive/taking the first step part

He honestly didn’t mention it or call or anything, I only found out cause I signed up for the digital thing and saw the lab results myself. Which I had to really push to even have the labs done.

I did note in his notes though that it mentions diabetes diagnosis and to discuss with patient (me) in March (my next physical) but I feel like I should try to go sooner or at least call and discuss it. Idk if he even knows I can see that hah

You have to advocate for your own health care these days. Many doctors are simply employees now and slaves to the medical establishment that they sold their practice to. some simply dont have the time to provide the personalized care they once did in order to receive the reimbursements from insurance carriers. sad but true.

one suggestion to try is recording the appointments with your doctor and compiling your list of questions and email them to prior to your appointment to be sure youre not missing something.

it feels like we have been conditioned to ask for permission for certain things from our doctors. I see that with my dad and his meds. he was paying through the nose for the same vitamins we get retail…same exact dosage. what we paid for almost a year, he was paying each month. they work for us and are partners in our care, not the other way around. dont ever forget that….

I'm willing to bet that most people don't realize they're buying city water when they buy cases of bottled water at the grocery store or Sam's or Costco.

They don't even do anything extra to it, that blows my mind! Straight from the tap into plastic. And to top it off, plastic degrades and water as the universal solvent holds onto the leached chemicals. That's why bottled water has an expiration date.

Thanks!!! I’m gonna look into all that stuff and read that article and find that guy also this place is like pretty big and have tons of doctors in staff, it’s not his place, plus they also run a hospital and bought an urgent care company several years ago too which has a bunch of locations and even this main doctor place has a few different locations as well so yeah, they’re pretty big so probably have criteria to meet or my dad says they get money for every test they DONT order ??

I took the dogs for a run yesterday. My legs are sore today.
This evening is core.

I've quit drinking iced coffee. It's not like I'm using crazy syrups, powders, creamers, Carmel, and whipped cream, but it's not healthy either.
Coffee is crazy acidic, it's really one of the worst ways to start my day, so I'm ditching it. I'll still have one on Saturdays to reward myself for hard work and self control tho

If I could fill it with vodka, I would. Before I just wouldn't drink anything before bed or when I woke up. Still fricking hate drinking warer, but I'll take that over nightmares any night
