Just joined. I’m having trouble sourcing enough low carb items that taste good, so I thought I would try this for a year to help with my insulin dependent diabetes. I’m better on new treatments but going to the store for suitable products is a total joke. Fingers crossed!

[@gingeehermann4711]

That's petrifying......THRIVE 😮 isn't that Shannan Watts business 😮 See where that family ended up 😬😮‍💨😨 HORRIFYING

We get bulk fruits and thrive don’t do bulk fruit we don’t eat meat so thrive is not for us

[@fredadunne5382]

@@RichardBorgmandabs I live in a very warm and humid climate. Every delivery service I’ve tried with protein , veggies and fruits can’t seem to deliver food without the dry ice or other cold packs melting/evaporating before it gets to my front door. I go with seasonal local produce and bring it home myself. It’s finding snacks and the basics to make low-carb breads, crackers, etc. that is a problem. I found a recipe using coconut oil the other day that should have been easy to make. I couldn’t find coconut oil anywhere, including health food stores. Maybe it was the Holiday cooking crush, but this is worth a try.

What is there not to love about this video - incredible scenery, great background music, parents and child bonding time, teaching and learning, a snack break, a Kenji update that oozed with love, and an inspirational reminder that today is all we really have.

[@patriciafuchs5970]

So sad for Kenji. He has had the best life a dog could have. You can talk all you want about rainbow bridges, but when you deal with a family pet it can be heartbreaking. When our dog, Sherlock, passed, I think I cried for days. I still grieve for him. My heart goes out to you. Love him up while you can, Kenji knows you love him. That matters. Gotta love corn nuts!! You are right, shopping is nuts. I’m a single senior and have see the cost of things skyrocket. It’s tough when you need stuff that keeps getting more expensive every week.

I'm so sorry 😞

Many prayers for peace and healing for kenji. Hopefully he will not pass in pain. I hope you will have a few more months.

[@GoodSimpleLiving]

That's our goal as well

[@elgonwilliams7624]

When I was 10 y/o my cousins from Kentucky, who were carpenters, came to stay with us for a summer and build a new house for my family. I was on the job site all day everyday and learned a bit of everything about construction. I added this to the knowledge I was already gaining from being a farm kid, knowing about growing crops and raising animals, along with repairing things when they break. Ironically, many years later, I began working for a retail home improvements chain as a manager. It was invaluable knowledge that I had retained from all those years int eh past that helped me work with a variety of customers from homeowners to landscape and construction contractors. So it's never a bad thing to learn life lessons when you're young.

[@maryjscholl1963]

Sad to hear about Kenji, God Bless him. I have a LhasaApso/Shihtzu ,Charlie, Charlie had a tumor on his side, vet kept draining it, finally could drain no more. Within a month tumor grew to size of a softball. He is 13 years old, vet operated, Charlie did fine. Mass sent out, results came in, stage 2 Cancer,low grade. Hes happy, no pain, eats good, slightly overweight but at least gave him more time. Enjoy them while with us.

Poor Kenji. Best to just keep him comfortable and warm. 🎉

OMG guys, my heart is breaking for you with Kenji. My own GSD is turning 11 in April which is very old for a German Shepherd. She is also losing weight (muscle mass) but thankfully her hips are still good. I pray you get another year or two with Kenji, and I get the same with my Leta. Jeremy, you must be SO happy to be done with the overhead drywalling. When we added the 520 sq ft addition to our home, we used scissor trusses for the cathedral ceilings. The worst/hardest part of the entire addition build was doing the overhead drywalling. I am so happy for you that it is done. You need to oil up that drywall lift lol. We are finally back to reality here in N. Saskatchewan. Currently -20 and going to -42 on Tuesday night brrrr. I see in your forecast that snow and cold is coming for you too this coming week. The mild fall was a nice change for us up here. As always, sending love and hugs and a special hug for Kenji and a "woof" from my Leta and Colt.

January 20th will be the 2nd anniversary of my Ziva crossing the Rainbow Bridge. She loved me perfectly for 12 years, but she was tired, in pain, and she was ready. I held her and cried the day she came into the world, and I held her and cried the day she left it. I got another fur baby a few months later, and I swear that Ziva is somehow giving Brody pointers on how to get certain reactions out of me. He still surprises me with his out of the blue "Ziva-isms", and if she really is teaching him how to con me out of extra treats, I guess I'm ok with it! There is one thing that I know for sure when it comes to our pets. They love us so completely, so amazingly, so selflessly, up until their last breath... and the only thing that we can do for them when their time comes, is to hold them, tell them it's ok, and to give all of that love back to them.

As a human that grew extra bones (spurs) in my shoulders, I can attest to the pain they actually cause, it’s going to be hard as they are on his spine, but the less he moves the less it will hurt.

Definitely cherish every moment! Our angel, Max, is a real angel now. He went through a similar experience, and eventually could not stand or walk without his wheelchair. I stopped working and spent nearly every one of his waking moments of his last 8 months trying to make his life as comfortable as possible. We burned through a large amount of our emergency fund. I don't regret it one bit. He gave our family joy for over 19 years, and we wanted to do whatever we could for him! He always loved getting kisses, and I'm pretty sure he averaged at least 100 kisses per day in his last years! 😊 🐩
