While tinnitus is not life threatening, it is an ailment that so severely impacts your quality of life, there are times you feel like dying. Having that incessant ringing and buzzing in your ears all the time is like some sort of medieval torture.
I should know because I suffered with this affliction for more than three years before I found the Reverse My Tinnitus home remedy. Things got so bad for me, I ended up losing my job.
My boss didn't actually fire me because he felt sorry for me. However, he just suggested that maybe I should quit and focus on finding a way to improve my condition.
The only thing that kept me going was my family. My wife and kids were very compassionate and understanding.
Determined to find a cure for my condition, my wife ordered special books on tinnitus through interlibrary loan. I remember the most horrible part when she did this was feeling like I wish she would just stop talking when she read to me from these books… and then feeling guilty for feeling this way.
I had always loved hearing my wife's sweet dulcet voice but the constant echoing, whistling, and scratchy sounds in my ears when she spoke destroyed this. One day I just broke down and cried like a baby, something I had not done since my Grandfather died when I was a boy.
Both my wife and I joined online discussion groups to connect with other tinnitus sufferers, hoping they would have suggestions on how to cure tinnitus. I was so desperate I was willing to try almost anything.
One user early on suggested I try a homeopathic remedy. We had to special order it and it cost more around $155. I took it for six weeks continuously. During this time my condition got even worse!
Following the advice of others, I started taking Ginkgo biloba supplements but that didn't seem to work either. I went off coffee and all other forms of caffeine which gave me terrible headaches and made me almost unbearable to live with.
I don't know how my marriage survived it except to say I have an exceptionally understanding wife. I also went on a very low sodium diet which took the joy out of cooking and eating, two of my favorite pastimes.
I even tried this totally kooky method of drumming on my head. My wife and kids took turns trying this too.
It would sometimes lessen my symptoms for a short time but they would come back with full force in less than an hour and they would never completely go away. Plus, it just made me look like I belonged in the psyche ward or something.
My wife made an appointment with an ear doctor 70 miles away from our home. He professionally cleaned the wax build-up out of my ears and assured me I would see some improvement because he evidently found a lot of wax.
When I called him to let him know that it didn't work at all, he prescribed some different antibiotics than the ones I had been given at the start of my tinnitus, telling me that these antibiotics seemed to work much better for tinnitus… they did NOT, at not least in my case!
Since the standard treatment for tinnitus didn't seem to improve my situation even a little, my wife and I concluded that we should seek out an alternative treatment for tinnitus. However, we live in the southern United States about 70-90 miles outside an urban area. Finding an alternative medicine clinic and/or a holistic doctor isn't easy!
We did get lucky though and one of my kids' Mothers told us about an acupuncture clinic a couple of hours away. She claimed they had relieved her gastrointestinal issues when no doctor had been able to.
We called them and they mailed us some literature on how acupuncture can supposedly help tinnitus. However, our insurance company would not cover the treatment, and more importantly, I have always hated needles. In fact, it verges on needle phobia!
I was in the process of psyching myself up to endure the needle treatment when my wife found the website for the Reverse My Tinnitus treatment. Honestly, I was highly skeptical at first.
Yes, it sounded like a great story since the guy (Alan Watson) had gotten the idea from an actual scientist named Dr. James Phillips at Oxford University in England, but I still had reservations and I was not holding back in voicing my opinion on the subject when my sweet wife suddenly interrupted me with a hand gesture and said in an emphatic, "Enough! I can't take this anymore. The instructions for this treatment are only $39 and we're going to order it…. PERIOD."
After taking this stand, she went and got her purse and entered in the credit card information. Three minutes later, we were reading through the Reverse My Tinnitus ebook report!
What jumped out at both of us was that there was absolutely zero risk in me trying this treatment.
Basically, it was a trip to the grocery store to get the supplies and then me sticking to it religiously to really test if it worked. There was nothing on the list that could in any way be harmful.
So, the worst that could happen from following the Reverse My Tinnitus treatment protocol is it wouldn't work. And I had already been down that path many times before, so even if it didn't work, I figured one more failure wasn't going to break my spirit.
I have to say too that I was intrigued by the fact that it promised a PERMANENT cure, not just masking the symptoms.
Reverse My Tinnitus actually builds up antibodies in your body that go in and repair the damaged nerves in your ears that actually cause the distorted constant sounds! It has to do with the myelin sheath and some other scientific stuff that I'd probably do a really poor job of explaining if I tried. The best way to learn about it is to watch this video from authors Alan Watson and Dr. James Phillips.
Once you have the antibodies built up in your system, they are there permanently in your body. Plus, the damaged nerves are completely healed.
I admit it was tough waiting every day for this alternative tinnitus treatment to kick in. Well, the worst part was not knowing if it would actually work.
By the beginning of the second week, I had resigned myself to thinking if it just helped a little, I'd be appreciative. However, on the 12th day I began to lose hope because the guy on the website said it had worked for him on the 12th day, but for me, my ears were still ringing and crackling.
My wife gave me a kiss and a good back massage that evening and I agreed to be more patient. After all, they did say that the timing of the cure varied a bit from person to person.
Two days later, a miracle happened, at least it was a miracle for my family and I. Most of the crackling in my ears had subsided. I did still hear a slight whistling noise and a few cracks here and there but the constant overwhelming noise was gone!
After a few more days, my tinnitus was completely cured and I didn't hear anything else but the sweet sound of my wife and kids. That night, for the first time in a very long time, I piled up on the couch with my family to watch a movie.
My tinnitus had affected the whole household so much, they almost instinctively turned the volume on very low. I looked at my oldest daughter and said, "Hey, could you turn the volume up?!"
At that moment, everyone laughed and smiled and my wife shed tears of joy. My life was normal again and I owe it all to the Reverse My Tinnitus cure. I can't believe I only paid $39 for something that gave me my life back. I am truly thankful!

My family and I, accompanied by a friend, recently spent a week in an apartment in Florence, Italy. We flew into Milan, and then took a three-hour train ride south, through Bologna, to reach our destination.
When we arrived at the Florence train station we attempted to call the company that managed our apartment. My wife bought a phone card from a vendor at the station, but we couldn't figure out how to use it. At first we thought that was merely because the instructions were in Italian. However, when we figured out how to display them in English, they were no more comprehensible. We would swipe our card through the phone's card reader, whereupon it would say: "Hang up and reorient." Well, we certainly were disoriented by these instructions, but we weren't at all sure how we should "reorient."
I went to ask the man at the station's information desk if he could explain how to use our card. Between my weak Italian and his weak English we weren't getting far, until a young woman standing next to the desk stepped in. She volunteered to come over and try the card for me. After doing so, she declared the card wouldn't work at pay phones.
"Wait here," she told us, and disappeared into the crowd. In a moment she was back with another phone card she had just purchased. She made our call with it. I offered to pay her for the call. When she turned me down, I offered her the card we had purchased. She turned me down again, then led us to the taxi stand. I was quite touched by the kindness of this complete stranger, who expected nothing in return and was unlikely to ever see us again.
The taxi ride to our apartment was my first exposure to Florentine driving customs. As far as I could tell, every intersection without a light prompted a game of chicken. When our cab approached a cross street with a car halted at a stop sign, that other car would begin to pull out. In response, our driver would accelerate hard, signaling that he wasn't about to stop, and that there would be a very nasty accident if the other driver pulled out any farther. This worked at every intersection we crossed. I assume it had worked many times in the past, since the driver seemed to be of sound body, even if I had my doubts about sound mind.
Soon we arrived at our temporary home, a two-bedroom apartment on Borgo San Frediano, just a block from the south bank of the Arno River, which flows through the heart of Florence. A nice woman from the rental company, Windows on Tuscany, met our cab and helped us with our bags. Her English was fluent, which was a relief to us after having struggled to get by with our minimal Italian for several hours. Once we were inside the apartment, our kids set out to familiarize themselves with their new residence, opening every door and drawer, jumping on the beds, and trying the TV. They were quite surprised to discover that Mickey Mouse and Daffy Duck can speak Italian.
For those of you who have children and are contemplating traveling with them, I suggest settling into each destination on your trip for as long as possible. The kids will quickly become used to it and treat it as home. In our experience, if children are moved from hotel to hotel every day, the vacation is a much more unsettling experience for them.
We quickly discovered that the corner our apartment overlooked was a busy spot. The cross street, Via Serragli, is one of the six streets in central Florence that span the Arno, so it is a significant route between the south and the north side of the city. Below us there was a good bit of foot and car traffic, but by far the biggest noisemakers were the scooters.
Florence has very narrow streets, making for real traffic problems in a city of 400,000 people. One solution is to drive a scooter, a sort of mini-motorcycle, which can fit through spaces far smaller than can a car. During morning and evening rush hour, the streets of Florence are awash in scooters. (My wife kept calling them "Vespas." I thought vespas were evening church services, but I must be wrong.) In my estimate, the number of scooters on the road at rush hour exceeds that of other motor vehicles by roughly eight or ten to one.
To an American, the sight of swarms of well-dressed, middle-aged people riding these little contraptions is quite odd. It is as if a large chunk of the adult population of the city suddenly went fey and made off with their kids' toys. One day my wife was particularly struck by the sight of a forty-year-old woman, dressed in high-heeled leather boots, a fashionable mini-skirt, and an elegant fur jacket, darting her scooter between a bus and a car with one hand, while smoking a cigarette with the other.
But, as I mentioned, the primary impact Florence's scooters had on us was aural. Scooters are louder than cars, and they have a particularly alarming pitch, reminiscent of an angry hornet. My family lives in Brooklyn, so we are accustomed to city noise, but New York is chamber music compared to Florence's rock concert. Unlike in New York, in Florence traffic drops off considerably late in the night – which only made things worse! After five minutes of relative silence, during which I would just begin to nod off, a scooter, enticed by the empty street in front of it, would race at full speed past our building, revving its engine.
Loud conversations were another source of street noise. What's the right time, you might wonder, to talk loudly on the street in Florence? Eight in the morning? One in the afternoon? Six in the evening?
Well, if you answered any of those, you are correct, because the right time to talk loudly on the street in Florence is any time at all! That's right, even 3:00 AM is a fine time to hold a five-minute conversation by shouting to your friend who is standing across the road. There are both a restaurant and a bar near our corner, so throughout the evening there was a steady flow of Florentines saying good night below our windows. Like in most places, I guess, Florentine good-byes can take a long time. We would hear "Ciao!" ten or twelve times before a group broke up. And the final "Ciao" doesn't end your obligations: Lest your friend think that he isn't already missed, it is important to honk your car horn to him five or six times before you finally drive off.
Florence is a small city in terms of the distance between its main attractions. There was nothing we wanted to see that we could not reach on foot, even with a six-year-old, a four-year-old, and a three-year-old in tow. And the amount of things to see in this small area is stunning. Florence is the city where, more than any other place in the world, the Renaissance took place. Dante, Boccaccio, Brunelleschi, Donatello, Lippi, Fra Angelico, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, Machiavelli, and Galileo all were either born in Florence or spent extensive time there.
Despite this plethora of genius, it is the ghosts of the Medici family, who ran the Florentine state off and on for roughly 300 years, who most haunt the city. My children learned to recognize their family crest, six balls on a shield, and would cry out "Medici balls!" whenever they spotted it. Well, the Medici family certainly did have balls!
After we visited the Uffizi Gallery, I was stunned to read that the magnificent collection of art it contained is essentially a Medici family collection, presented today much as it had been 450 years ago. Uffizi, in fact, means offices, and that is what the building was: the Medici's offices. We also visited the Palazzo Pitti, a gigantic building south of the Arno. Here, I thought, is a magnificent Florentine building not associated with the Medicis. But that night when I read up on it, I found I was wrong. Poor Signore Pitti, it seems, had been trying to one up the Medicis with his grand palace. But the Pittis went bankrupt trying to complete it, and it was purchased by… well, you probably guessed, the Medicis. And those are only two of the many Medici buildings in the area.
Florence is a shopper's paradise – if the shopper is not short of funds. Most streets in the center of town are lined with clothing boutiques, jewelry stores, and antique shops. Florentines are much more particular about their clothing than are Americans. It was very rare to see a Florentine, man or woman, out in public but not dressed well. The different choices made by Florentine and American consumers are a striking example of what the theory of subjective value, as propounded by Austrian economists, means in practice. Given a certain level of income, an American's consumption is far more likely to tilt toward his house and his car than a Florentine's, who is likely to spend much more on clothing and food than the American. Florentines seem to prefer to live in smaller apartments than Americans, and to drive scooters rather than SUVs, as long as they can wear two thousand dollar leather jackets and eat at nice restaurants. How could anyone objectively determine whether Florentines or Americans are making better choices on how they spend their income?
One day, while shopping for a hat, I stopped into a men's clothing store. A saleswoman ducked downstairs to retrieve some hats from storage. While I waited for her return, I surveyed the nearby racks. A sweater caught my eye. "Hey, that's a really nice sweater," I said to myself. And since I am not a clothes hound, a sweater has to be particularly nice for me to notice it. Wondering what such a nice sweater costs, I walked over and checked the price tag. It was 625 Euros, which is roughly $800. Since no single piece of clothing in my wardrobe has ever cost me more than $300, the price gave me quite a shock, making me realize that I had spotted a really, really nice sweater.
Another thing Florentines do not seem as concerned about as are Americans are their bathrooms. Our apartment was very nice, but the showers were awful, being more misters than actual showers. Each bathroom did have a bidet, which our kids called "fanny washers." My three year old, in fact, found them to be an excellent height for sinks. He would even wash his hands in one several times while sitting on the toilet.
Speaking of toilets, Florence has a truly bewildering variety of them. There are some that are standard American issue. Some are like American toilets except that the tank is high up on the wall, and they flush with a chain. Some flush with a button on the wall. Some flush by foot pedal. Some are mere holes in the floor with foot holders on either side – we found them at the Palazzo Medici. But the most puzzling toilets were the ones that appeared to be standard American-type models, but with the seat and cover removed. Anyone who had hoped to sit instead had to stand on the toilet's rim. We discovered them, among other places, in the Uffizi and the Galleria dell'Accademia, which houses Michaelangelo's David, among other works.
One night I met "Luigi the American," who had lived in Florence for 22 years. I asked him about the strange toilets that seemed to have had their seats removed. "Sure," he said, "the seats were removed. That way the seats don't have to be cleaned." Some clever entrepreneur might profit from this practice by making seatless toilets, saving the expense of manufacturing, shipping, and finally removing the seats.
We only ventured out into the Tuscan countryside once, on a day trip up to the ancient hill town of Fiesole. The town offers a splendid view down into the Arno Valley, and contains Etruscan and Roman ruins. The Tuscan hills are a gorgeous blend of nature-given beauty and human enhancement, refined over several thousand years. Human presence does not always despoil a natural setting – it can also enhance it.
A striking aspect of Florence was the relative absence of children. We would walk for several hours without running into more than half a dozen, while passing hundreds or even thousands of adults. Italy, so I've read, has the lowest birthrate of any country in the world, and the birthrate in Florence is low even by Italian standards. Walking the streets with three children is a cause for astonishment. Florentines generally seemed delighted to meet our children. But for some reason, they just don't want to have their own.
After a few days of walking around Florence, my six-year-old son, vexed by the narrow streets and miniscule sidewalks, asked me, "Dad, why don't they just tear down all of this old stuff and build a new city with more room?"
It was not an easy question to answer. Why shouldn't Florentines enjoy the same 15-foot-wide sidewalks and relatively spacious streets that I do in Brooklyn? For that matter, why shouldn't I, in Brooklyn, enjoy the even wider streets of an even newer city like Phoenix or Houston? (Do those cities even have sidewalks?)
However, I would be sorely disappointed if what my son proposed came to pass. The magnificent history embodied in Florence's narrow streets and ancient buildings is the very reason I wanted to go there. I dearly hope that Florence never transforms into Phoenix.
Such a wish is often used as a justification for state-imposed legal restrictions on how property owners can alter their buildings in designated "historical districts," such as Cobble Hill, where I live. However, states, by a wide margin, have been the primary destroyers of historical sites. All but one of the Florentine bridges across the Arno was destroyed by bombing during World War II. Government-sponsored "urban renewal" projects, launched in many cities in the US during the 1950s and 60s, subsidized the destruction of many historic neighborhoods. The Parthenon in Athens stood basically intact for 2000 years, until the forces of the Venetian state blew off its roof during a battle with the Turks. I could continue citing similar cases until the cows come home, or until you stop reading because of the sheer monotony of my examples.
I believe that we can have both freedom and Florence. There are enough people who want to see such places, to immerse themselves in glorious epochs of history, to view firsthand the works of great artists, including the buildings and public spaces they designed, that I think that most of the character of places like Florence can be preserved without state intervention.
But even if my belief is wrong, that does not make the state a reliable guardian of our cultural treasures. It will preserve them just as long as it serves its interests to do so. The moment they obstruct the state's goals, however "historical" they are, they are just as vulnerable to destruction as any other obstacle to its domination of society.

Proposed Niobrara Falls Project (Graphic: Business Wire)
NuStar Energy L.P. (NYSE: NS) announced today the launch of a Binding Open Season by its affiliate, NuStar Logistics, L.P. ("NuStar"), to assess shipper interest in firm priority space to transport crude petroleum from the Niobrara Shale near Platteville and Watkins, Colorado to Wichita Falls, Texas (the "Niobrara Falls Project"). The Niobrara Falls Project would also have the capability to transport Permian and Granite Wash crude petroleum delivered into NuStar's Dixon, Texas Tank Farm for delivery to the various destinations. The Niobrara Falls Project would allow shippers the option to supply various refiners along the pipeline routes, including Suncor Energy's Denver, Colorado refinery; Valero Energy's McKee, Texas and Ardmore, Oklahoma refineries; and WRB's refinery in Borger, Texas. In addition, it is expected that at Wichita Falls, Texas, shippers would have the option to access the Nederland/Beaumont, Texas markets and/or the Cushing hub via third-party pipelines.
Proposed Niobrara Falls Project
The proposed Niobrara Falls Project would include construction of new crude petroleum pipelines from gathering locations in the Niobrara Shale near Platteville, Colorado and near Watkins, Colorado to a tie-in point on NuStar's existing 10" McKee, Texas to Denver, Colorado petroleum products pipeline (the "NuStar Colorado 10" Pipeline"). The NuStar Colorado 10" Pipeline would be converted to crude oil service, reversed and connected with NuStar's existing 14" Wichita Falls, Texas to McKee, Texas crude oil pipeline (the "NuStar Wichita Falls 14" Pipeline"), which would also be reversed. The NuStar Colorado 10" Pipeline would have an approximate capacity of 70,000 to 75,000 barrels per day, and the NuStar Wichita Falls 14" Pipeline would have an approximate capacity of 125,000 to 130,000 barrels per day. Shippers would have the option to contract for storage at the origin points near Platteville and Watkins, Colorado. Subject to sufficient commitments from shippers, necessary permits, regulatory and internal approvals, the reversed NuStar Wichita Falls 14" Pipeline portion of the Niobrara Falls Project is expected to begin service on or about April 1, 2013, with full Niobrara Falls Project service expected to begin around the 1 st quarter of 2014.
Access to Gulf Coast and Cushing MarketsIt is expected that the proposed Niobrara Falls Project would connect to the Sunoco Logistics Partners, L.P. Permian Express Phase I project at Wichita Falls, Texas and to the Basin System at Wichita Falls, Texas for further continuous pipeline service to the Nederland/Beaumont, Texas markets and/or the Cushing hub.

Jackson has hardly played this season (if you don't count garbage time) and is still nothing more than a project who needs to put in a lot of offseason strength and conditioning work so it makes no sense to go into next season relying on him and not looking for an upgrade from guys like Jackson, Siliga, and Unrein. Two out of those have hardly played.
We can definitely do better there.
I think we have options here anyway because we could always look to shift Wolfe inside and have someone like Ayers start so the draft will at DL will really depend on what happens in free agency.
Wolfe needs to gain weight to play inside. I was hard on him in here, I didn't realize 3 players on our DLine were two gapping. Given that and our scheme, I like Wolfe outside. But I have to agree and I have been very vocal about upgrading our DTs. I really think Vickerson should be back, and Silga/Unrein upgraded via the draft, it's a strength of the draft as I keep saying and we need to double up! Cincy did it last year with Still and Thompson.. They play behind Adkins, Peko, and Sims, yet they took the value that's was there. We need to do that this year. I also wouldn't mind upgrading Bannan via free agency. Again he has played solid, but we can do better and younger. Someone who can stop the run but get after the QB.

GTCC holds tech trades job fair Friday
Guilford Technical Community College will host an Advanced Manufacturing and Technical Job Fair 1 to 3 p.m. Friday on its east Greensboro Campus.
The job fair will showcase employers hiring applicants who are skilled in the industrial, construction, engineering and technology fields. The event, in the GTCC Technical Education Center at 3505 E. Wendover Ave., is free and open to the public.
The purpose of the job fair is to help local employers meet hiring needs for skilled workers and highlight the college's technical programs. Department chairmen will be available to talk with prospective students about educational and career opportunities within technical fields.
"According to the Department of Labor Statistics, more than 70 percent of applicants are hiring through networking, and job fairs are the perfect start to building a network," said Dan Grigg, organizer of the job fair and a career adviser at GTCC.
Approximately 30 employers from the various fields will participate in the job fair, according to organizers. The fields include: • Electronics and electrical, mechanical and electronics engineering technology

I never said all blacks are like that... However I'm not the one that wrote the article. Plus this isn't just a black thing. Remember when OJ got acquitted? There were tons of white people running around looting stores and beating blacks in the streets. Oh wait....

I still don't understand why you are mad at me... I didnt write the article, I didnt do the looting, I wasnt the one who attacked people at random, shouldn't you be mad at the people committing these crimes and giving ammo to the racists you seem to despise (not the person pointing out the FACTS)?

First of all, loving you guys for writing in last week. The world is filled with blogs these days (hell, this site is filled with blogs), so for anyone to read mine, much less reply? Im feeling very Sally Field. Thanks for liking me!Now, about the 90210-Melrose situation that seems to have erupted. Like Chappy explained with NASA-powered GPS accuracy in the comments, the final two episodes of 90210s sophomore season introduced Grant Show as Melroses Jake Hanson, the dude who taught Drunky McKay "how to surf, ride a motorcycle
pick up girls." And having just finished the second season on DVD, that skill set obviously also included getting with Kelly Taylor, which is what Hanson tries while not building Jackie Taylor and Mel Silvers wedding pavilion and squinting through his carefully swept-back-but-floppy hair. "I should probably be arrested for thinking what Im thinking right now," he tells our favorite jailbait. Nothing says romance or spin...

Look, ya'll! I'm blogging!OK, seriously how fun is this? I feel so hipster. And so honored that all four of you have dropped in on my first-ever blog. As for the name, I gotta say that this was a tough one. Not much rhymes with Damian — Bahamian, New Canaan, that's about it — and it was stressed to me that Omen jokes were just too weird. (Although I did like the idea of "Channel 666.") But instead, I stuck with what I wanted to write about: the glee one can find revisiting their favorite TV shows on DVD. Hence, "The Joy of Sets."So once a week, maybe more, I'll be sharing the Joy and shedding some light on whatever TV on DVD set currently devouring my free time. Also, for anyone who remembers the original Watercooler column here on TVGuide.com, there may also be occasional updates on (and input from) Pepito the Wonder Chihuahua, who is right now staring at me with his bug eyes like I owe him scratches. 'Cause that's how he rolls.And I promise, these entries will be fun-s...

Induction Week 2, Still not losing??
[COLOR=Purple]Induction Week Two
Taken from "Atkins Essentials" book
If the fat is not coming off, the scale is not your friend, and your clothes are still too snug.... don't despair! First, double check your measurements. Some people lose inches without losing pounds. (This can happen in any phase of Atkins). If that's not the case, it just means you're amoung the small percentage of people whose bodies are somewhat resistant to shedding pounds, a condition commonly referred to as metabolic resistance. Like life, it's not fair, but we can help you overcome most of the reasons for this annoying tendancy.
Resistance to weight loss can occure for a number of reasons. Some can be influenced by changes in behavior or lifestyle. For example, if you are eating too much, you can learn to moderate your portions. If you are sedentary, you can find an exercise regimen that you enjoy and that suits your lifestyle. Individuals with very high insulin levels are likely to be slow starters meaning that they may lose very little weight (or none) until they have controlled carbs for a longer period of time than people with more normal insulin levels.
You may lose slowly in the week before your menstrual period. Cravings may also be aggravated during this time. Just be patient. Weight loss is likely to speed up once you have finished your menses.
Solving other problems, such as an underlying thyroid or use of medications that either make you gain weight or slow weight loss are more complex, but in concert with your doctor, you can seek solutions.
Then there are things that you simply cannot do anything about : Genetics and age are obviously beyond your control. So is hormonal status - menopause and perimenopause typically slow a woman's metabolism- or a sluggish thyroid. In such cases, you need to readjust your expectations. You may never get down to the weight you were as a younger person, OR it may take you longer than you originally hoped.
Another common reason for your body to resist weight loss is a history of going on and off diets, known as yo-yo dieting. When you get into a pattern of repeatedly losing and gaining weight, your body becomes adept at protecting it's fat stores by slowing down your metabolism.
additionally the book discusses medications can interfere with weight loss. Common culprits are :
drugs for high blood pressure
Remember: Check with your doctor before changing or stopping any medications. Talk to your doctor about alternatives.
So, if you are facing less than steady weight loss at this point, it just means that your body is a bit slower to release it's fat stores and your weight loss will likely be more gradual. If you are a slow loser, you may also experience frustrating stalls, when the pounds simply refuse to budge at all.
Be patient! Don't let it get you down, and by all means, don't give up!
(There are additional adjustments discussed in the next section of the book.)[/COLOR]
Hello newbie the board. Ive read the stalling posts etc, but this is day 8 of induction, my ketosis are very very dark pink and have been for 3 days, but the weight as yet is not coming off. I have yo yo'd this past year, am totally addicted to sugar but I am on this plan the protein seems to stabilise my blood sugar and I dont get cravings.
Basically, I know its still early days but im feeling very full and abit bloated. Ive done this before, a couple of years ago, so know the drill about the food and the fat to kick off ketosis. Ive been in ketosis from day 2, and the sticks have got darker. Ive made sure I drink plenty of water. Im not constipated, but its a couple of days so perhaps a herbal laxative tea would help. Motivation is running low!!!!!!!!!! Im hanging in there but it would help if I could see a couple of Lbs lost!
Any advice would be much appreciate. Oh btw I am power walking a total of 5 miles a day, probably 45-50 mins in total. (Journey to work) - surely I am active enough.
My stats are currently
148 Lb
At that weight and height, depedning on your frame size, it could be that your body does not have enough fat to burn off, even in ketosis.
So its possible to be in ketosis and not burn any fat? - :eek: :eek:
I really confused, there is excess fat on my body......
Sorry im new to the board, just jumped right in here and moaned but im at the stage where if i dont see any results i will give up and I know that isnt a good idea.
Do Cardio, weight training ( I just read that if you weight train for an hour it speeds belly fat loss)
It might just be a matter of gaining lean muscle because you *are* at a healthy BMI weight. Yours is 22.5.
As for the waist thing:
Candida or yeast overload... Not losing...
I have been on induction for 3 weeks and have not noticed any weight dropping. My clothes are not as tight but I really thought I would have lost at lease 5 or so pounds... I am 5ft 4in and weight 148lb... I dont drink alot of water but I am trying. I do drink a lot of green tea... I am exercising although not as much as I usually do. I've only gotten in a couple days of weight lifting and a little cardio, but not much to speak of...
I do believe I have what the Adkins book talks about yeat overload... I am going to a nutritionalist next week....
Any suggestions? There is no way I can cut out as much as your suppose to with the yeast overload so I hope this nutritionalist can help me....
I'm suppose to do a yeast free, sugar free, vinager free... Very impossible for me for the vinager free... I've been doing very well with the yeast free and sugar free!
Can being on induction phase for a long time be dangerous?
Dr Atkins said that induction can be followed safely for up to 6 months but I guess this would depend on how much weight you have to lose
i would just like to get through the first 2 week. that would make me so proud of myself. I know I will do it this time after about 50 tries. the most cheat free days I have ever had is 7 last week 5. and when I cheat I really cheat. I cant be fat anymore I am 29 and very unhappy with my life in general. My excess weight has got to go. so I am on day 2 for the (too many to count time) and I dont plan to ever do day 2 again. somebody pray for me please. cant do another year FAT
You can do it!!! :aprayer: :aprayer: :hugs:
Wow, 6 months, huh? What happens after 6 mos?
I started Atkins 2 years ago -- was in Ketosis quite quick and lost about 15kg over the period of time from Induction to maitence. Goal weight 52 -- 53 kg which I think is about 125p ?
Anyway have slipped along the last couple of months and am now on 133 p -- 61 kg. Starting to feel flabby again so here goes induction !!
Have been back on for about 2 weeks now, not obsessing though and not really sure if Im under 20 c/ day -- just know what I should be eating.
Not dropping any weight though :down: just sitting on 61 kg.
Im like you, would like to drop some so that I know things sre moving for me.
I can still fit into my jeans etc, but the have been feeling very tight lateley.
might start using ketosticks again just to see if Im in ketosis --
When I was first on atkins, I satyed on induction for around 10 weeksat first. If I stalled -- I went back on induction for a week or two. It usually started me up again, --- but I think that my carbs levels and what my body will tolerate has really cahnged due to this.
just kep going -- it gets easier, and you really can do it :up:
Hi, just a little advice from an oldie, newbie here. Watch stallers, which range from artificial sweeteners, sodas, so called sugar free candies and gums, etc. I find olive oil to help greatly in weight loss. Mix some olive oil with spices, my favorite is Ms. Dash, and use it is a dip for meat, veggies, etc. Cut down on sodium, it will make you look stalled when your body is just holding water. If that doesn't work, shake up your body with a few days of low cal then high cal. Hope this helps. :p
I like the tip about mixing olive oil and seasonings for dipping meat...I will have to try that out.
I am on day 5 of week 2 induction! This is the first time I have stuck it out this long and I have not slipped out of Ketosis yet. I seem to stay in the moderate to dark range. :) The first week I lost 5 pounds, hope to lose the same this week, but I know PMS is coming around so I might not be as lucky!!
losing weight is so hard, one of the hardest things to do I think.
Hang in there everyone!!!
I am restarting again and again and again! This time, doggone it, I'm going to make it!
I was up to 260 (5'2") got on Atkins, got down to 214#, then blew it, got up to 234#,
blew it somemore, got up to 242# as of a week ago last Monday. I got on induction and so far in 9 days, have lost 9#. With no exercise other than to laboriously get myself ready for work, walk down 3 flights of stairs (this is a new job, as I was pretty much sedimentary before) mow the our 5acre lawn on riding mower, and then crash.
Has anyone tried the Atkins products in induction? If so, what's good for meals?
Thanks for "listening".
Well ladies I am just getting started again. I have been on every diet it seems like this year and have failed on every one of them. The low carb lifestyle is the only one that actually makes the scale move!
I was wondering , What is PCOS?
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a health problem that can affect a woman's hormone levels, periods, and ovulation. This can affect fertility and pregnancy. It can also cause male-type body changes.
If you have PCOS, your hormone (endocrine) system is out of balance. This can lead to serious health problems, such as diabetes and heart disease.
If you have PCOS, you may have problems with:
Weight gain and have trouble losing weight.
Male pattern baldness or thinning hair on the scalp.
Hair growth on the face, back, or chest.
High blood sugar (hyperglycemia).
I'm just coming back and having problems. I did this WOE 4 years ago and lost 30 pounds - since then I quit smoking and gained everything back.
Have been on Atkins Induction for 1 week now. Lost 3 pounds in 3 days then nothing. I'm working out at lunch time every day, I feel great! However, I'm retaining water and am somewhat constipated. I actually gained back on of my pounds when I weighed in this morning. This is very frustrating and it's hard for me to stay motivated. My carbs are right on but my calories are 1500-1600 which I suspect is too high.
I am dissapointed that no ones replied about candida overload... Does that mean no one has heard of it????
I quit smoking to and started to regain some of my weight so now I;m back on induction and find it alot harder this time around. But I keep going because I worked to hard to lose the first time.You can do it to Good luck.
Induction Week Two
Topazz: Thanks for the info. It's helpful to reread the Aitkins info as a reminder.
I've been on induction for just over 3 weeks. I'm doing fairly well. Dropped 10 lbs as of yesterday.
For the last two days I've been battling leg cramps. I've starting taking postassium as of yesterday because that seems to keep the cramps away.
How is everyone else doing? I hope it's been good for all.
Have a great day and hang in there!
I have been on induction exactly 2 weeks. I have followed it very ridgedly. I have not lost a pound! I am so upset over this. I probably don't drink enough water and i work out 3 x's a week for 1 hour (walking) What can I do differently? Should I be taking L-carnitane, and q10? I am in ketosis still. If you can help that would be great. email@example.com thank you.
Hi everyone:D
Will someone tell me how long before you go into Ketosis?:dunno: I started Atkins Sat. the 23rd, but then farther into the book I saw where we were not to have coffee unless it was decaf.So I quit drinking it and bought decaf. I usually drink two cups maybe three a day.Also I have been eating on plan veggies( cauli, cabbage, green beans, brocc.spinach) instead of the salad will that make a difference?Because as of today Wed. 27th I have not went into Ketosis it is still beige!Is there a limit to the veggies you can have? I have been having about a cup with lunch and dinner.
I really hope this works I have tried about every other one out there to no avail!This one seems like it will be easier to stay with.
I'll appreciate any help anyone will offer me.:up:
Are we allowed to use low carb baking mix other than the Atkins one? Because of my thyroid I can't use soy product?:heart:
Thanks Roberta
You can do it. Trust me. I didn't think I could, but I'm doing it. Do you know how many times I've started and messed up? Sitting around feeling sorry for yourself isn't going to make you lose weight. Take Control. Do it....Do it for yourself!!!
Your stats
I had really good success while under Induction two years ago. I fell off the wagon and started again two weeks ago. Unlike two years ago, the weight is not coming off. What may be the root cause why I'm not losing this time around?
First time poster
I am first time poster, so confused
Jade 06, I'm sorry your having a hard time , are you following the induction rules to the letter? Some people never get the keto stix to turn purple but still lose. maybe you should post what you have been eating so we can see if it is something you need to change, I know I stalled and was really getting crazy over it. I cut my morning shake out and bam the next morning I was down a lb. not much but sure is nice to see the scale move. Opps! I have to go pick up my daughter from school. I'll be back. love Pru
>>Unlike two years ago, the weight is not coming off. What may be the root cause why I'm not losing this time around?>>
It's generally "harder" the second time around.
This may apply:
What exactly are you eating?
Are you getting 12-15 net carbs from vegetables?
Are you getting a minimum of 64 ounces of water?

'Midas Watch' Columnist Thomas Leaves Observer, Says Kushner is One of 'The Bad Guys'
Michael M. Thomas, New York Observer columnist, Forbes.com and Daily Beast contributor and author of several books including the recently published "Love & Money," has decided to leave the salmon-colored paper after 22 years.
Thomas, a recent Morning Media Menu podcast guest, wrote about his decision to leave the Observer on his personal blog Midas Watch (which has the same name as his Observer column) on Sunday, and sent a letter out to friends.
"It looks as if the NY Observer and I are parting company for good," he said. "The new owner stands pretty much squarely on the side of those whom I consider the bad guys in the great civic and financial equations that govern our parlous existence. That his prospective father-in-law is Donald Trump, a person known to earlier readers of the NYO 'Midas Watch' as 'the Prince of Swine,' only adds to the confusion."
Thomas said he'll stick to blogging, about "books, food, the media, golf, music, Wall Street, manners, the writer's trade, Brooklyn, local politics, the Hamptons," and anything else that interests him.

Wilson County mourns Bobby Lynn's death
Wilson County News
February 15, 2011, 1:09pm

11 comments
Residents and elected officials throughout the area are mourning the loss of Wilson County Pct. 3 Commissioner Robert Harold "Bobby" Lynn. Wilson County Judge Marvin Quinney confirmed that Lynn passed away at approximately 2:30 a.m. Feb. 15.
Lynn, who had been battling various medical ailments over the past few years, was being treated in a San Antonio hospital. He was recovering from surgery after a recent throat cancer diagnosis.
Quinney said Lynn recommended that his foreman, Ricky R. Morales, be named as his successor in the event of his death. This is the subject of a special meeting set for 9:15 a.m., Friday, Feb. 18. But because Friday is also the tentative date for Lynn's funeral service -- for which arrangements are pending -- Quinney said this meeting could be rescheduled.

Our condolences to the family. I just have to tell one of my husband's favorite times with Bobby. It was Bobby's first time to play golf and he was playing in our Newspapers In Education tournament at the old Quail Run Golf Course in La Vernia. Bobby played with gusto -- wearing his cowboy boots! Al got a kick out of that. Yes, he will be missed.

Bobby was a very good man and a friend to Wood Valley Acres subdivision. He helped us on numerous occasions and I consider him a good friend. My condolences go out to his family and friends. He will be missed and not soon forgotten. Whenever he was asked how things were going, he would usually respond: Fine as frog hair. I am certain that where Bobby is now is certainly fine as frog hair. Rest in peace, my friend.

text: KFOX14 - kfoxtv.com - Search Results The following is an archived video story. The text content of that video story is available below for reference. The original video has been deleted and is no longer available. Former EPISD trustee heading to prisonBy: Melissa GundersenEL PASO, Texas -- After 17 years of accepting bribes and bribing others, a former El Paso Independent School District trustee is sentenced to three years in prison.Monday a federal judge sentenced Sal Mena, 67, to three years in prison and three years' supervised release. Mena is also ordered to pay a $176,455 fine. That's the amount Mena is believed to have collected within the past 17 years for his part in a large-scale public corruption scheme.Mena was arrested back in 2008, after FBI investigators said he was accepting bribes and also bribing district vendors for a contract to Access Health Source that was worth $150 million. Mena pleaded guilty in 2009 to one count of mail fraud and one count of wire fraud. During sentencing, Mena had an opportunity to apologize to the judge."I take full responsibility. I allowed myself to get caught in a web of deception," said Mena.Mena then started tripping up on his words. The judge gave him a short break to collect his thoughts, but when court came back in session, Mena's attorney decided to speak on his behalf. "I know that Sal has done everything he could to repair anything that, any damage that, he could have caused in the community," said defense attorney Randy Ortega.The judge then gave Mena his three-year prison sentence. That's when a teary-eyed Mena asked to talk. "I need closure, but I need probation if I could. I know what I did wrong and I'm sorry for a long time," Mena told the judge. Judge Frank Montalvo responded by saying, "Out of all the public officials caught, you, Mr. Mena, were the one most extensively involved in corrupt conduct and benefited the most." Montalvo said Mena still stands to benefit. "You still have information that could be beneficial to the government that could put more people in prison. So you still have opportunity to benefit," said Montalvo. He didn't budge on the sentence.Mena was immediately taken into custody and placed on suicide watch."There was some kind of an overdose of drugs or something and the concern was him attempting suicide and I think the judge took him into custody to protect him just in case, having seen how difficult it was for him to speak," said prosecuting attorney Debra Kanof. In the same public corruption case, Chris Pak received a much lighter sentence. The former financial adviser was sentenced to three years' probation for his role. Both attorneys and the judge agreed Pak played a minor role in the scheme.
