    One wonders how a person can have such a spectacularly low level of self -
    awareness...or perhaps one should simply be suspicious of their motives --
    but there ya go :-|

    I dunno... If I dissapear for more than a week, I start getting private
    e-mails from people asking me if I'm ok. ;-)

    That's because you're truly a decent person who gives far more to rfc
    than you take and are a pleasure to associate with because you give and
    take dauntlessly... you're real, you are who you say you are... and
    mostly you're ethical, someone to be trusted, a great rareity these
    days... you're not a liar.

    Nutmeg is fun to read about because there have been so many things
    attributed to it starting hundreds of years ago and continuing to
    today. It's a good example of the persistence of the will to believe
    in almost anything that seems remotely plausible. It's very similar to
    the willingness of some people to listen to the preacher who has
    forecasted the end of the world -- incorrectly -- twelve times already,
    but think this time he must be right.... -aem

    OK< WAIT ..... explain please, do you make the jello and then serve
    it and sort of chop it up and add the cream ?? Or do you mix it with
    the heavy cream to make it???

    That sounds really good for some reason.

    If you don't understand law carb dieting, I'm not going to take the time
    to explain it.

    You can buy the books like I did.

    Atkins, the New Diet Revolution

    Dr. Colgan, The Greenwich Diet

    Or any literature on the South Beach diet.

    For your info., modern research has finally proven that fat is not bad
    and does not make you fat. Even my own Dr. knows this! Fat also does NOT
    raise your blood lipid levels.

    She was commenting on my very low triglyceride level the other day. She
    said "I see you have been virtuous about avoiding sugar and starch". ;-)
    Finally, a Dr. that KNOWS!!!!!!!

    Sugar and starch are the evils, not fat..........

    I've read that Nutmegs are like money in jail populations.
    They are considered a psychedelic if used properly:

    Actually, fats are mostly a bad idea, and eating cream every day is a
    bad idea, but certainly it's not news that some diabetics limit
    sugars, but not fats?

    After Thanksgiving's pumpkin pie, when you're using the last of the
    turkey to make a la king, a pinch of nutmeg in the white sauce.

    Speaking of holidays, it's also essential for eggnog. :-) -aem

    I've chosen the Atkins way of eating. I'm not sure about Om. Atkins
    is a high fat, sufficient (not high) protein, low carb way of eating.
    I'm using it to control my diabetes, but I'm not going to say no to
    the weight loss part. 😄

    I chose this way of eating in 2003, and lost 40 pounds in 4 mounths
    (you lose a lot of water weight the first month, then I leveled off to
    5 pounds a month). My lipid profile became perfect, absolutley
    perfect, in 3 months. This, despite consuming a quart of heavy cream
    each week and all the bacon I wanted.

    Then we moved, and the stress got to me. This is a permanent way of
    eating. So my weight gain was my fault, not the fault of the plan.

    Typical day's food:

    BREAKFAST:
    An omelette of some kind. Usually cheddar with ham, bacon, or
    brocolli. There was also one where you added cocoa and Splenda to the
    eggs, then added a sweetened and flavored cream cheese filling. I
    often added chopped nuts, as well. Kinda like a breakfast brownie.

    LUNCH:
    Generally a quarter head of lettuce, plus cheese, olives, ham, etc.
    Alongside that, a quarter pound hamberger. cheeseburger, or bacon
    cheeseburger. Or a chicken breast. Or a pork chop. You get the
    idea.

    DINNER:
    A large mountain of buttered broccoli along with a moderate portion of
    meat, as above.

    FAVORITE SNACK:
    Sugar free Jell-O with heavy cream poured on top. Yesterday was the
    first time I ever mixed it in. Oh, and deviled eggs.

    FRUITS:
    Berries and melons can be added as you add carbs. I couldn't do it
    first time around because I was under-medicated for my diabetes. I
    look forward to strawberries!

    It's the combination of fats and refined carbs that cause health
    problems.

    Peace,
    Carol

    OK< WAIT ..... explain please, do you make the jello and then serve
    it and sort of chop it up and add the cream ?? Or do you mix it with
    the heavy cream to make it???

    Until last night, I always chopped it and let the cream (one
    tablespoon per half cup of gelatin) run through the pieces. Got
    really slippery that way. Last night I combined them as soon as the
    gelatin cooled. Gives it a more mellow flavor than plain, but I think
    I'll go back to the slippery pieces, at least most ot the time.

    It IS really good! I'm interested in trying orange jello with the
    cream mixed in. Sounds like it would be a good substitute for orange
    sherbet, which I adore!

    Carol
