Thanks, I'll take mine black. We are starting a Whole30 diet today. No dairy, no grains of any kind, no sugars or sugar substitutes, no legumes, but snow peas and green beans are ok, just not the seeds (beans or peas). It's a meat and vegetable diet. Almost ALL processed foods have sugar in them. A lot of label reading and putting it back.

I bought all 4 of the books, 2 cookbooks in the lot and we started off the morning with scrambled eggs with mushrooms and green onions and pan sausage. No toast.

We have played around with it since Thanksgiving, but wouldn't commit until after the holidays were over. We ate our last pieces of key lime pie last night. LOL Our son in law did the Whole30 from the day after Thanksgiving to Christmas. He feels better, lost some weight and his clothes fit better. He says he will stay on some form of this diet the rest of his life in order to eat healthier.

We have two freezers full of meat. Half a grass fed steer, lamb, chicken and home raised pork. Also corn, purple hull peas and butterbeans which are not on the diet. But we have turnip greens, mustard greens and collards in the freezer and lots of canned tomatoes.

So here we go!

@Baymule - good luck and have fun with that! I think the "fun" is important; if a diet seems too much like a chore, you're unlikely to stick with it.

I started a thread in Random Ramblings, i'll be posting pictures.

sounds like a doozy!

Hopefully after a week of adjusting to it, you will start to feel great with all the extra veggie intake.

If anyone wants an evening cup, I just brewed one of the small pots. There will be a high of 30 F tomorrow. Then snow all day Thursday and another drop into the single digits. Getting all my outside stuff done tomorrow.

Thanks Sour,

When I get cold I like nursing a hot cup during all of my waking hours.

Good morning, coffee drinkers. Coffee is brewed - have a safe and productive day.

Water is boiling on the stove, no not for coffee, it's so the animals can have a warm drink and to melt the ice.

I must be part werewolf or vampire, super moon last night and I couldn't sleep. I am tired of cold (after 1 week) tired of ice, tired of hauling water, and grumpy because I had no sleep. Gripe, gripe, gripe. Ok, that's over, I am back to my cheery self. I'm dragging butt, but I am cheerful. Supposed to get above freezing today!

Thanks Sour, I'll sure take that coffee! I put out a plate of pan sausage!
