I think anything in excess can be bad. The problem with a lot of foods is that we don't know where they came from or where they were produced. I really want to up my intake of veggies and grow more of my own.

I've got lots of green tomatoes if you want some.

Interesting... The say people are night owls or morning people etc based on the time of day they were born. I'm curious if that theory holds true. I was born around 3am and if left to my own devices I'd tend to stay up until 2am or so. My problem is that I sleep a lot. Again if left to my own devices I tend to sleep 11-12 hours.

Well, it's after midnight here and the alarm goes off at 6am, so I'm going to call it a night. Everyone have a great night, sleep well and no ibs flareups!

I had IBS-C for years, and attacks were often associated with stress. Have not had one flare up all year since I've been Keto. Not sure if it was the sugar, the grains, or just carbs in general that tied into it. I also have way less joint pain and no hypoglycemic episodes.

Just glad it seems to be gone!

Wow that's interesting! My friend's sister and now I think family is keto but idk, it seems like too much work for me hah plus I'm sure that much fat is bad eventually too

Ick. That's not living as far as I'm concerned. I cut out pop a few months ago and had a regular normal "routine " for the first time in my life. Sadly, it only lasted a week or so and then it was back to the same. I guess I'm lucky. The horrendous pain is a rare occurrence for me for the past few years. I can eat bread again and really don't have to watch my diet (unless I'm wanting to lose weight of course). I remember when I was first diagnosed back in the 80s I was told to avoid coffee and chocolate. No way in sam he'll.

I don't drink coffee either, but if someone tries to take my chocolate, they die.

I read that if you wrap them in newspaper they ripen nicely. I will be right over. Thanks!

I sleep more when feeling down. At one point i was staying up until 2 or 4 am and sleeping until 2 pm. Now i try to get up by 930 or 10. Husband doesn't get it , but then he does not suffer from depression.

Someone wake up! I hate doing morning by myself.
