We don't know when it will happen, but we do know it will happen. Eventually, the 'plan' will come to fruition. And I'm sure we all want to be at our healthiest and best when that happens.
I was thinking that perhaps we could have an ongoing thread where those interested would post their routines and even questions about how each of us can be our healthiest. I'm sure there are those here who are bodybuilders, for instance. Perhaps they could post about what they do, what they eat, etc. There are probably those who want to get in better shape. Perhaps they could post questions specific to their concerns and the frens could answer.
For instance, I would love to know what my fellow frogs are doing on a daily or weekly basis to keep fit.
Exercising? (What kind)
Eating a certain way? (what, specifically)
Taking supplements? (which ones)
Let's help each other get as strong as we can, physically and mentally. And if people are interested in this idea and would like to partake, I will eventually post some info about our spiritual health, as well. What do you say, frogs? Are you ready to get in the best shape of your life? Let's gooo!
I wish I could follow that advice to the T. I have developed an allergy to eggs, which is very inconvenient, to say the least. I love them and they're so versatile. And red meat usually hurts my stomach, but the other day I made the best steak I'd eaten in years and it didn't hurt my tummy. (I'm a bit of a disaster when it comes to cooking steak) but this time it came out great. If I could manage to do that a few times a week, or more, I'd be very happy. What type of steak to you eat and how to you prepare it?
Growing up I always ate eggs with no problems. I had my first child at 20. Something changed after that. Whenever I'd eat an egg it made my stomachache. I tried just eating egg whites and still my tummy would hurt. Then I tried just the yolks but still a tummy ache. I even tried farm fresh eggs to only still suffer. I could eat cookies and cakes that had egg in them with no problems. Probably because I was only eating a small percentage of egg in the batch of cookies. But things like French toast, custard, or something with a high egg content I'd suffer.
I'm 61 now. I started Keto a year ago. Three months into Keto, I ate an egg. To my surprise I didn't suffer a tummy ache. I eat eggs everyday now. Weird huh?
Wow, that is weird. I wonder if you went off the keto if you'd go back to having tummy troubles. Anyway, that's great that you can finally eat them again! I hope I can do that one day too. I really, really, really miss them.
The trick for steaks is to buy a New York strip, as thick as you can. Preferably salt it many hours ahead but 20 mins is fine if you’re in a rush. Add garlic and pepper, let it get to room temp if you can as well. Cast iron, medium high heat with olive oil. 2-3 mins first side, 1-2 mins on the flip side. Add butter to the cast iron and stick that baby right in the over at 450. Wait another 6-8 mins and it’ll be perfect every time.
Thank you! I'm filing that info. I would love to be able to make a great steak. Appreciate it, fren.
It might depend on the source of the eggs. Do you buy them at the grocery store, or do you buy them from a local producer?
I like sausage and eggs for breakfast, and sometimes bratwurst and eggs for supper. Tomatoes and onions are good, and they combine with ground beef to make a number of different things.
At the grocery store. I would love to have that for breakfast.
Try those Banquet frozen breakfast sausage links. I like the maple flavor. Just put a few on a plate and microwave on the Reheat setting. I have daily "doses" vacuum sealed in my deep storage.
If I eat out, I get the large sausage links and eggs. The restaurant adds cheese to the scrambled eggs. I don't have to order any more, as they know what I want.
You must be a regular, lol.
