Mmmmmmm. Steak. I'm absolutely CRAVING some juicy red meat. Steak is good food. I tried to eat chop meat. Didn't work. I was nauseated for 3 hours. But nice rare, red beef filet? No problems digesting it whatsoever. I AM looking into organic, grass fed meats. The chemicals in commercial meats are too dangerous for all involved. Anyway, fat is good for you. I can't digest it but I'm reading more on the topic. Be well. Stay well. I'm putting this video on my blog today so people can enjoy you!
Steak is awesome. It has helped me cut fat and gain muscle. Red meat offers the best source of protein for a bodybuilder. You cannot go wrong with steak.
I've never eaten breakfast, or should I say.... I usually wake up in the middle of the night and eat a protein bar, like 3-4am... that's breakfast. :)
I've heard people having far better luck with their leftovers by heating them using a bamboo steamer instead of a microwave. Sounds like a pain in the arse, tho.
I like the B.A. Passion Fruit iron. I usually just let it melt on my tongue instead of chewing (here's hoping that helps save my teeth!)
Hey Beth, just FYI, as a nurse I was always taught to warn a patient that chewable iron will take the enamel off the teeth.. i hate to tell you that :(
Liquid forms of iron supplement tend to stain the teeth. To prevent, reduce, or remove these stains: * Mix each dose in water, fruit juice, or tomato juice. You may use a drinking tube or straw to help keep the iron supplement from getting on the teeth. * Iron stains on teeth can usually be removed by brushing with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) or medicinal peroxide (hydrogen peroxide 3%).
I mispoke, you are right. It is the iron that discolors but chewable vitamin C that causes degredation of the enamel of one's teeth. Ooops. Sorry about that.
I had steak for the first time the other night and it did not sit well. I was beginning to wonder if I will be ok with ANY meats! So I can relate! The iron looks good! Might have to check that out :) Thanks girl :)
300mg's :) 150 of each type. Poly helps blood iron levels and the carbonyl helps the ferritin iron store levels. Trust me ... you know us DS'rs know our supplements :) hehe
Damn, that's way more than any typical supplements. Do most DS'ers take those levels? I mean, bariatric supps come in 18 mgs, 29 and 60 mgs, and you're getting 300 daily? Any reaction to it?
Yes most do. No constipation here!! The carbonyl is the tender iron from vitalady and it's very gentle and does not cause most people any issue. It's a non flavored chewable or swallow 25mg each. I do take 2 Mag Oxide nightly too so there will never be an issue if ya know what I mean :)
I really hope you're in and out faster than 10 days! (or get a pc to take with you)
Have a steak in the fridge from last week....it was sooo good. I know it'll end up the same as you....might need to stop reheating it and let it come up to room temp and have a beef salad or something
yay!!! a video from you!!! i can do steak, but it has to be real soft and chewable...but can't have too much cuz it does fill me up quickly but you are right it keeps you full for a very long time.
yeah..i saw that on your blog today..yuck! i wonder why it made you dump? isn't dumping syndrome supposed to be due to sugar only? thats kind of confusing isn't it?
Nothing much. Sometimes simethicone helps, laying on my left side helps, and moving... but if it is sugar alcohol gas, or veggie gas, there's not relief.

Wow. I thought it was just "staining," no?
