Carnitas are so ‘me’ ….. I love cooking simple but flavorful meals AND Carnitas are BOTH. And… once the pork roast is slow cooked…it’s quick too! I want to thank my friend Lily Pink for suggesting these. As she mentioned… the basic recipe works great for many different meats. My wife and I are …
In the previous post, I posted pictures of our trip to Wilmington, NC (and Wrightsville Beach). In this post I will be showing people the food choices I made during the 36 hours away from home. Above is “my” low carb primal meal plan… did I stick to it? On a daily basis, I show people …
Does Red Meat Kill??? … of course NOT. In this post we’ll discuss an article “Eating Lots of Red Meat Ups Women’s Stroke Risk“. The article reports on a Swedish study and suggests red meat consumption increases stroke risk. I’ll prove: red meat did not cause an increase in stroke risk not even processed meats caused …
I was ‘chained’ to drugs and insulin for survival … or so I thought.
Since I have been on a low carb paleo meal plan and lifestyle… I’ve been diabetes drug free!!
I have been completely drug free except for the drug for pain after my dislocated shoulder.
Regardless of your level of dietary indiscretion, you only have one choice. You must get back on the wagon. Your life depends on it, literally.
If you noticed the title of this post… “Diabetes Statistics I” , yes there will be others.

For the last four months… averaging between 13 and 16 net carbs per day… and the American Diabetes Association claims you need 120 g of carbs for body function… BA HAHHAAH!!!! :)
I want to thank Stacey Clayton for posting this article, a listing of “12 of the Most Disgusting Delicacies” … it reminded me to do this post. Growing up, my brother and I had to eat at least one bite of everything on our plates. If I heard my dad say this once … I heard him …
In my opinion low carb primal is THE best way for all humans to eat. There are many variations within the “primal meal plan”… you don’t have to eat just as I do, especially if you are NON-diabetics. Living according to “The Primal Blueprint” is the best way to live in my opinion because it …
No… sadly, this was not a dream where all the people ran around in loin cloths. HA! This was a day dream concerning our national nutrition … Imagine a time when an overweight teenage boy goes to the pediatrician. The boy and his parents are sitting in the doctors office and the the doctor after …
This is why I say YOU MUST BE CAREFUL READING ONLY STUDY HEADLINES, deceit and treachery lurk around every corner… :(
I was reminded of my food journal “reports” which include Protein, Fat and Carb ratios yesterday. I had not posted this in some time…. so here’s an update. (Thanks to Donna D’Souza) The report includes August and all but the last two days of September…so for practical purposes, this is a two month summary. Keep …
In July of 2006, I realized something was wrong. Frequent urination, terrible temper, always thirsty/hungry, tingling hands and feet. It was to the point where going to the bathroom was getting annoying, and even interfering with work. At my nephew’s baseball game that evening, my sister pointed out the number of Diet Pepsi and water …
I can and do eat chili year round … but had not made it recently…. that all changed this morning. In my opinion, low carb “primal” chili is a great food for diabetics… and it is what I call a “3-2” pitch in my personal diabetic diet. Truly, it’s a great food for EVERYONE! Why? … …

When I first saw the word “corpulence” … I had to look it up. It’s meaning? According to freedictionary.com The condition of being excessively fat; obesity. Indeed I once suffered from corpulence… here is a picture from last year showing my 40″ Levi’s ….the picture was taken in July 26, 2009. At the time, I …
I am ending my Fitday.com journal entries for awhile. I know… this is not FRONT PAGE news but I wanted to let everyone know who may care so they can check out the summary. (below) FYI – I changed my mind…. several people found this valuable so I will continue. Thanks for the feedback. :) …
Update: Since I originally wrote this post much has been made about the ‘money connections’ with members of the government. the medical industry should wear nascar-style jackets. government officials should wear nascar-style jackets. A suggestion was made that people in government should wear uniforms like Nascar drivers showing who is ‘sponsoring’ them. Personally I agree. …

This is a follow up to yesterday’s post “See, hear and Speak No Evil….”. It is a story of a friend of mine and his battle with Crohns Disease. I also discuss the similarities in treatment and in poor medical advice for both Diabetes and Crohns from the medical establishment. In summary, his doctor told him …
