Hi,Gina can I come over & lose wait with you lol. Your doing so good & your dinners look great. I love shrimp tacos, so good. One thing that really bothers me is sunflower seeds. I cannot eat them , with this diverticulitis & I haven't ate peanut butter in probably 5 yrs. Yeah it's that bad. So good to see you today. 💛

Heck yes, you sure can!!! I totally understand. Now that I think about it I had a few sunflower seeds on a salad a few days ago….maybe that was it!?! I can’t eat peanut butter either, I can understand peanuts but whyyy peanut butter? It’s smooth?!? These wonky guts play a big part in me not eating as healthy as I should that’s for sure!!! Love ya girlie! 🥰🥰🥰

Very nice. You’re a good cook. Looks like a restaurant. Your dog is cute x a million. Wow. I have two Bichons and they are like my sons. Love them ridiculously much. You beat me to it when you mentioned about the quinoa, I was going to say doesn’t that aggravate your diverticulitis. Additionally there’s seeds in tomatoes and cucumbers but if you listen to the wisdom today they say it doesn’t matter lol but I tend to disagree but who am I. But just wondering if you have an issue when you eat these foods obviously it seems you do not. But great video and your sound was excellent by the way in the beginning. Be well

Thank you Dave! I love my two little girls just like my kids too! When you cook for them, sew for them, sleep with them, and take them every where you go they are family they aren’t just a pet! 💓 The quinoa does hurt my diverticulitis…or hurts my colon, I’m not sure what’s causing the pain but as long as I keep taking my ACV gummies daily it will go away. I’m probably going to avoid the tri-colored quinoa from now on. I avoided popcorn for over 25 years but started eating it daily after I learned the ACV gummies fixed my issues. That was too much, it caused pain so now I eat it ever now & then! These wonky guts have sure caused me enough misery for a lifetime!

So glad I checked in on your channel, I am all caught up now. Girl how ai missed you, your cooking, your sweet girls ( sad that Abby is having issues) and Clayman, I feel like all is right with YT again! You look fabulous. Thanks for giving me some food ideas. I just turned 50 and I find weight goes on by just drinking water.

Awww thank you Janice! We can do it!!! I had done the low carb thing and took off 100 pounds and kept it off for about 5 years. If I hadn’t had such trouble out of my wonky guts I think I would still be successful doing it! It’s totally a mind set ….if I’m not prepared mentally I’ll never be successful. It took my dog getting sick with skin issues and me needing to make her eat nothing but a certain dog food for me to get my butt back at it! 🤭 I can’t deprive her while I eat terrible so she and I are on a journey….to fix (horrible) itchy skin and get triglycerides back down! Join us girl, we can do it!!! 🥰🥰🥰

Oh, Gina! I can so relate! I have gained weight over the past 3 months. I was on my diet cause I knew my Dr. appt was coming up. As soon as I left the doctor, we ate out for dinner. 6lbs is great!

We are totally kindred spirits Katie! I wish I didn’t have such a bad relationship with food but at the same time, I’m glad I picked food for my addiction instead of alcohol or drugs! 🤷🏼♀️ I used to tell my diabetic daddy “just eat right how hard can that be” 😐 I owe him an apology! lol It’s reallllllyyyyy hard!!! 🫣

Thank you so much Dellzy!!! 🥰 I had to put myself on a diet to be able to deprive Abby’s sweet self of her favorite foods! I’m such a push over!🫣 lol But hey, we both need to do it so I’m trying!!!

Thank you so much Connie! I really need to get on Pinterest and find me some more recipes. That gnocchi was really good, it tasted like the inside of a really nice chicken pot pie. Now that flavor I can get behind….but all that stuff that tastes like spaghetti….issa no for me! lol 🥰🥰🥰

I've lost 30lbs in 4 months with WW. You eat what you want so nothing is off limits. It's the only thing that works for me because it's sustainable. If you're eating a diet you don't like you won't succeed with the weight loss or with keeping it off.
@MsDreamcakesАй бұрын
That’s just it….there’s not a single diet I like. If I can’t eat the way I enjoy eating …it’s a diet. I’ve tried them all and I’ve eventually failed at every single one. The last two times that I’ve failed, it’s because it’s thrown me into the worst diverticulitis attacks I’ve ever had. So managing what I eat and my diverticulitis is proving impossible for me at the moment. But I’m going to try again, hopefully I can get my head back in the game soon! 🤷🏼♀️

Hi Gina..heve you tried a candle lamp? My daughters told me about them a couple years ago.. I'm like you and forget to snuff my candles sometimes..of course thats extremely dangerous. This candle lamp puts my mind at ease. No open flame. Get one with a timer,and dimmer..you won't be sorry💪..oh, Amazon is where i got mine
