Cherry RaincoatJune 2015
Tuesday, May 26, 2015
Spring rains are the bane of an Oregon cherry farmer's existence. Even a few sprinkles can crack the fruit so badly it's not worth picking. Science to the rescue: Researchers at Oregon State University have developed a spray-on film that cuts rain-related cracking in half, potentially saving a season's crop. The coating, patented as SureSeal, is made from natural chemicals similar to those found in the skins of cherries: cellulose, palm oil-based wax and calcium.

So now I'm puzzled; since that traumatic experience on your first visit to the Mansion, how come you're a fan now? I would think you wouldn't want anything to do with it.

I'm definitely a Disney fan. [Walt Disney] has inspired me in so many ways, including how I feel, where I chose to live my life, and what I wanted to be. I spent a lot of time in New Orleans, and that's all because of the Haunted Mansion. Over the years, I just would try to find [Walt] wherever I would go and try to get inspired the way he was inspired."

You say that, but as a kid I was deathly afraid of Phantom Manor, i'd get angry at my parents for suggesting it. Its amazing how you grow to love these things
It took a good while to even get back onto the ride (try 2005) , but I'm such a sucker for horror, and ghost stories that I couldn't stay away forever. Plus learning about it made it... less intimidating.

Brian holds a BA degree in Linguistics (TESOL concentration)
English has long been the world's language, and not knowing how to speak English properly can hold one back in both personal and professional circles. English, after all, is the official language of science. Many textbooks and manuals in the computer and medical fields are written in English. Additionally, English is also the official language of airline pilots throughout the world. Regardless of where flights originate and land, even if it's a domestic flight where English is not the official language, English will be spoken by the pilots and air traffic control.
The services offered by English Buddha are varied: English lessons, grammar rules, pronunciation, editing, and tutoring – all conducted by native speakers of English from the United States of America. What is more, all the teachers are certified to teach English to second language learners and hold at least a BA degree from an accredited institution of higher learning. The different types of English teaching certifications are varied: TEFL, CELTA, and TESOL just to name a few. There are all geared for the same purpose: to help people who do not speak English as a native language.
Because Brian Daniel has traveled so extensively throughout the world, he understands the complexity of cultures and how that can affect English learners. Some of the places Brian has been includes but is not limited to: the United States & North America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East.
If you are interested in hiring an English tutor for help with grammar, speaking, reading or writing English, then contact Brian Daniel at http://www.EnglishBuddha.com.

Much better than the last bottle (hot, roasted). This one is fruit dominated as in ripe, sweet fruit, however the acidity and tannins are in balance so it drinks well so far. Only just opened. I don't want to look at the % alcohol but my guess is 14.5 - 15% ish
Porty. Roasted. Hot

Poured through aerator into decanter. Then swirled and let to breathe for a while. Then from decanter again through aerator into glass. This was not sufficient. This wine requires traditional breathing of letting it sit for quite a while. Once I had been drinking it for a couple hours, it really came into its own and was one of the most elegant wines I've ever had.

My mother loves the telephone. This picture, based on an old photograph, exemplifies that passion but also the early years of my parents' marriage. They loved old jazz music and they played it loud. I imagine the music is turned way up and she has moved to the farthest reach of their apartment so she can hear the person she is talking to. She is in the middle of cooking dinner and is, no doubt, on her second martini. She's probably been on the phone for at least an hour – which is a short conversation for her.

Anyone ever try a Wavewalk Catamaran Fishing Kayak?
Very interesting concept and seaworthy design.
I am very interested in kayak fishing but I am just not comfortable sitting in that position for very long.
Wonder if there is anywhere that one could test drive or rent one to try ?
Wavewalk Catamaran Fishing Kayaks

Anyone ever try a Wavewalk Catamaran Fishing Kayak?
Posted August 01 2007 - 4:03 PM
Have not had any experience with the model you are asking about.
As far as trying before you buy, I'm sure there are retailers in your area that
will arrange for some demo paddle sessions. Best I can suggest is to check around. There are a few members here at SOL that are in your neck of the woods who could probably hook up with you as well.
How 'bout it guys?
Posted August 03 2007 - 8:12 AM
I have a business trip to Mass in Oct maybe I could check it out then as they do not appear to have retail dealers. I wanted to hear if anyone else had first hand experience with the wavewalker Kayak.
Can't put the link here but just put " Wavewalk Catamaran Fishing Kayak " in to your favorite search engine and you will find it. It looks so easy in their demo videos including riding waves.
Posted October 07 2007 - 9:35 PM
Well I am in Billerica MA all week so I am going to try to drive down there to Newton and try one out.
I am really surprised that no one else here has any comments on it.
The key thing for me is that you get to sit in a more natural position int e wavewalk even better than a canoe. My back aches after only 1 hour in a kayak (I know -I'm totally out of shape:-(
So I hope I can get a few hours out of work to tryo one out and I'll post the results here.
Posted October 09 2007 - 9:34 AM
Hello Voldemars.
I'm a newbie here just joined a fiew minutes ago.
I'm located in Va. and have been on the Wave Walker web site several time and have been in contact by email with the company.
I'm an older guy 63 and I'm recouping from hip surgery I had 2 weeks ago.
I have been kayak fishing for a couple of years and love it and don't want to give it up.I don't know if I can get back to the regular L sitting position in my yak and I believe if I can't this Wave Walk may be for me.
So if you get to check it out even paddle it while you are up there I hope you will post your toughts on it here.
I saw a review on another forum and this person wrote that it wasn't made very strong or thick and that it loses it's shape after a warm day's use but that it springs back over night to it's shape other than that he said it is great.
Will be looking forward to your post
Posted October 11 2007 - 1:03 PM
That looks like the same position I am in when I peddle my hobie. I tend to bring the back up a bit when I fishing, but for moving across and type of distance I lean back and peddle hard.
Posted October 14 2007 - 9:31 PM
Hi All,
I got out of work in Billerica MA at 12:30 on Friday and shot down to Newton MA to meet with the inventor of the Wavewalk Kayak and take it out on the Charles River for a test paddle.
The inventor and owner of Wavewalk, Yoav Rosen gave me a lot of detail on what to expect and then demonstrated the entry and exit of launching a Wavewalk - basically you just walk right in between the 2 hulls and sit down! not even getting your feet a little wet. The demonstration showed it could be paddled in a "riding" position with your legs bent and leaning a little forward, a regular sitting position and then STANDING! He showed the stability by jumping up and down and leaning side to side even when standing. Paddling while standing was possible using a 10 foot modified kayak paddle. Turning was even more impressive as he could carve a turn sharply by leaning a hull into the turn. Beaching the craft was accomplished by paddling straight for shore sitting far back in the saddle lifting the bows of the hulls then leaning hard back as it beached. Exiting was as easy as standing up and stepping out between the 2 hulls. He made it all look SO EASY .
Now it was my turn. I am 5' 10" and weigh in at about 245 so I had to widen out the PFD quite a bit before getting started. OK - he has been talking all this time mainly about how the W takes a little getting used to and that I will not feel comfortable at all when I first start. He actually stated I might feel very uncomfortable - possibly one of the worst feelings I could imagine. If he was trying to comfort me that was not working but how bad could it be - he made it all look so simple Heck, the videos on the W website show his 10 year old surfing the W in ocean waves
So anyway I get in wiggle in the saddle a bit till I think I am in the "riding position" and try to lurch forward the way I saw him enter. At this point Yoav tells me I do not have permission to launch and that we are going to do this slowly, that we have all day. Well I do not really have all day - I wanted to get home to Long Island for dinner after being away on business all week and it was starting to rain again. Well at this point he lets me move forward a foot so the main part of the hulls are floating but the stern is still on the boat ramp and I am instructed to shift my weight side to side to see how it feels. OK - not so scary, then he moves me out another foot, still at the boat ramp in less than one foot of water and again - shift my weight side to side. Now this is quite a responsive little craft and I do not have to shift much at all to really make it lean and reverse sides. This does not feel comfortable at all but I trust this guy really knows what he is doing and follow the instructions to the letter.
The next step is to move out a few feet and just float there. We were BS'ing all the time but mainly again he was telling me that it is OK - that I will get used to it quickly and will be paddling in no time. 3 minutes of just floating go by - felt like 10. OK - I can float. During this time he said not to touch the cockpit combing but I don't know why and forgot to ask. So I sat there with the paddle about chest high and then got ready to take a few strokes. A few feet out from the ramp then back. After an other 2 minutes he tells me to give it a try.
So I start taking a few strokes and it feels pretty good but each stroke causes me to get off balance and you can really feel how all of your control in in your legs. I would think this boat might not be great for someone with bad knees. Anyway - I paddled in circles off the end of the dock first to the right, then to the left. He told me NOT to lean into the turns, I was leaning all over as I paddled but not on purpose.
After a few circles he tells me to try figure 8's. and I started feeling a lot more secure. Then without even trying I noticed I was leaning into the turns and carving them out a bit. not much but it was a controlled lean for me in the one direction of the turn. I forgot how many 8's I did when Yoav tells me to go over to the other side of the river - take it easy turn and come back. I left the relative safety of the end of the boat ramp dock and proceeded to cross the Charles. IT was easy to take long strokes by pulling in the top of this long paddle and using my lower arm to guide with. The W behaved quite well in the wind and current.
By now it was really raining and I felt bad for him standing on the dock giving me all this guidance. I did not really care that it was raining - I was really having fun now. But since it was going to be a long ride home I figured it was time to wrap up and get on the road. I beached the W just as easy as he did and stepped out on to dray land, well relatively dry seeing it was really raining hard now but I did not step in to the river as I exited. I did not try to stand up during this trial run. All told, I was on the water for 18 minutes.
The base model weighs about 50 pounds and he estimates another 3 lbs for the extra flotation foam they add. Not too heavy and he hoisted up on the roof of his blazer with no problem. It sat on the roof rack upside down that was covered with foam. I asked about how the plastic would fair in the heat and he indicated that it will soften to some degree and care should be taken not to leave it out on the roof of a dark colored vehicle in the sun too long. But other than that there would be no problem.
Bottom line is that this is a very stable craft that does have a learning curve not unlike that of learning to ride a bike. But he assures me once I get a few hours under my belt that standing will come easily. It was very comfortable once I got over the initial tension in my legs. There is a lot of room in the hulls for storage and it can be outfitted with 2, 4 or 6 rod holders.
I am seriously considering getting 2 of these to be able to go out not only fishing but with my kids as well. Now if I can only convince "the boss!"
Take a look a the website and see what other people have done to set them up to fish - depth finders, trolling motors, storage, anchors etc. Any questions give Yoav a call or an e-mail, he is a very friendly guy.
Posted October 16 2007 - 4:12 PM
I agree with Voldemars. I went through the same exercise with Yoav but mine took about two hours. I am not a kayak fisherman but want to get into it and felt that this would be an interesting boat to try. Since there's no way to rent one of these to test it out for a few hours, I met Yoav and he took me down to the Charles River in Newton. I am 5"10, 195 lbs. At first, the W feels tippy but not any worse than some touring yaks I've paddled. A lot of that has to do with the high center of gravity. The W offers you a lot more range of motion than a SINK or SOT so you need to get used to how small shifts in your weight translate to the boat. One of the keys to this boat is to RELAX and let your weight sink into your center. (In Tai Chi we call this your dan tien).
After a few minutes on the water in fairly windy conditions I was feeling a lot more comfortable and probably paddled for a total of 20-25 minutes. At the end of the demo he had me try standing while he held the front of the boat steady. I am not yet ready for prime time.
I am doing a lot of research in advance of buying a yak in the spring. Yoav said that he'll let me take the boat again out for an afternoon to get a true feel for it. I've pretty much ruled out SOTs for a variety of reasons. The Pungos are still an option but when I compare all features and the versatility, the W remains at the top of my list.
I would recommend that everyone spend time on the wavewalk website. There is a ton (and I mean a TON) of really good information, both technical and practical. Yoav's a VERY nice guy and will talk your ears off for hours if you let him.

If you're looking for something comfortable and "stand-in-able", I just purchased a Native Ultimate 12 and I dig it so far. Don't get the Angler package though. Install the anchor trolley yourself and save $150. The seat is super comfortable also.

would come down to preferance,
option to throw a little electric motor on it is nice,
lots of rigging options
something to consider is space,
can get a small bass/jon boat, that would be same length,
yet give you all 10' to sit, store, fish from,
yet catamaran style kayak looks faster and easier to paddle than flatbottom boat, less resistance?
I have both, 9' kayak,
and 9' bass boat,
like them both for different reasons,

Saw a couple U-tube vids, and wondered what these were. Had a pretty seasoned, older type fellow, fishing bridges in Florida. Very nice from the vids....
Thanks for getting the info on here to hook up to the site! Very impressed, to say the least. Had been wanting to try Yak fishing, but this just seems to have so many advantages over a standard Yak. A few disadvantages as well, but so goes the territory.
You guys that met up, or did a test run... where abouts is this possible???
Think one of the things that concerns me the most is: "Beware of the Sun" Well something to look into at least
Thanks for any help/or resources...

I've used a Wavewalk for two seasons of rough and tumble fishing on bays and inlets in Long Island -- New York.
I use it mainly to get to where I want to fish then jump out in 2-3' of water and do my thing. Jump back in go somewhere else. Always in a wetsuit. Once you get the craft's balance you can really throw yourself around. My absolute favorite is 'run and gun' nightime bluefish blitzes in the marshes . ..
Can stand up and snag bunker and throw a cast net. Can stand up and pole in shallow water. No worry about rough water/wind/wakes
It can haul a tremendous amount of gear, but I keep it down to a small anchor, tackle bag and one pole and a white stern light.
Have a custom cart made by paddlecart with arms that extend up inside the 'V' of the hull which enable me to pull it over rough terrain . . . or down the street in Queens (which some consider rough terrain, too) . . .

Stay informed of the latest progress in canine health research.
We need your support to fund research that helps dogs live longer, healthier lives.
Donate Today
Recent results from research funded by the AKC Canine Health Foundation have the potential to significantly impact recommendations for spaying and neutering dogs in the United States. Most dogs in the United States are spayed or neutered, and for years the procedures have been completed prior to maturity. The study, published in the prominent, open access journal PLOS One, suggests that veterinarians should be more cautious about the age at which they spay and neuter in order to protect the overall health of dogs.
A team of researchers led by Dr. Benjamin L. Hart at the University of California, Davis has completed the most detailed study performed to date that evaluates incidence of cancer diagnoses and joint problems in one breed -- Golden Retrievers -- by neuter status: early (before 12 months old), late (12 months or older), and intact. Consistent with previous studies on the topic, the results showed increased likelihood of hemangiosarcoma, lymphoma, mast cell tumors, and canine cruciate ligament (CCL) rupture in neutered dogs.
The most profound observations were in hip dysplasia in male dogs when comparing early and late-neutering. The risk of development of hip dysplasia doubles, and disease occurs at a younger age in the early-neuter group compared to both the intact and late-neuter group. No occurrence of CCL disease was observed in intact male or intact female dogs, or in late-neutered females. In early-neutered dogs, the incidence of CCL was 5.1 percent in males and 7.7 percent in females, suggesting that neutering prior to sexual maturity significantly increases a dog's risk of developing CCL disease. With respect to cancer, cases of lymphoma were 3-fold greater in the early-neutered males. Interestingly, incidence of mast cell tumors (male and female dogs) and hemangiosarcoma (female dogs only) were highest in the late-neuter group.
"Dr. Hart's landmark study is the first to provide evidence for when to spay or neuter dogs. For years the veterinary community has been aware that early-spay and neuter may impact orthopedic health in dogs. Through a very detailed analysis and inclusion of body condition score as a risk factor, Dr. Hart was able to show that timing of spay and neuter does indeed have health implications," said Dr. Shila Nordone, Chief Scientific Officer for the AKC Canine Health Foundation.
"CCL disease is painful, debilitating, and costs dog owners $1 billion annually to treat. The AKC Canine Health Foundation is committed to funding research, like Dr. Hart's study, that can lead to evidence-based health recommendations. Armed with prudent guidelines for when to spay and neuter dogs we will have a significant impact on the quality of life for dogs," continued Dr. Nordone.
Importantly, the task at hand is now to determine if the observations in this study are indeed true across all breeds and mixed breeds of dogs. Dr. Hart is interested in continuing his work by studying Labrador Retrievers, German Shepherd Dogs, and Dachshunds. Additionally, gaps in knowledge continue to exist concerning the complex relationship between sex hormones and cancer.
Last summer the AKC Canine Health Foundation released a podcast interview with Dr. Hart on his early-spay and neuter research as part of a series dedicated to the health of the canine athlete. To listen to the podcast visit www.akcchf.org/canineathlete
The publication "Neutering Dogs: Effects on Joint Disorders and Cancers in Golden Retrievers" is available online through the open access journal PLOS One. The work was funded by the AKC Canine Health Foundation with sponsorship from the Golden Retriever Foundation, Schooley's Mountain Kennel Club, the Siberian Husky Club of America, and the Vizsla Club of America Welfare Foundation.

Interested in new Jack Spade products?
JACK SPADE was founded in 1996 in a loft on Warren Street with the idea that useful items could be both utilitarian and stylish. Living in downtown Manhattan, with space at a premium, everything we owned needed to serve a purpose – or even better, multiple purposes. We couldn't find the kinds of products we had in mind. So we decided to make them. We began with bags. They were fashionable and functional, designed for city life but appreciated by men everywhere who refuse to choose between something that looks good and works well. Accessories followed. Then a full line of clothing. We soon outgrew the loft on Warren Street, but we still challenge ourselves today to create the kinds of simple, iconic products that would make sense there. Then there's the matter of our name. There is no Jack Spade at JACK SPADE. There never has been. Instead, we were inspired by two of our idols – Beat novelist Jack Kerouac and business titan Jack Welch – to build a company where art and commerce could comfortably co-exist. JACK SPADE is named in their honor.

Low/ no carb diet while bfing

Posted 19 January 2013 - 05:30 PM
am curious if any other members had a low or no carbohydrate diet whilst breastfeeding with no negative effect or drop in their supply?
I was on a low carb diet before conceiving and had great results, since having bubs Ive been on around 1800 calories a day but the weight wont shift at all. I know for my body to lose weight I need to cut back on carbs but dont want to jeporise feeing my baby which is far more important.
Really appreciate your feedback.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:08 PM
I've been on a high protein, low carb (maybe 1 piece of bread a day, no potato, rice or pasta) since January 1st (DS was 6.5 months) and I haven't noticed any supply changes. However, I'm drinking heaps of water, and have started taking Herbs of Gold breastfeeding tablets, plus Blackmores P&BF gold tablets. Maybe they help??
How old is your LO?
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:13 PM
Within a few days my supply drops right off. I'm still holding onto 5kgs of baby weight and can't wait to get rid of it! Low carb always works for me too, but I'm going to have to wait until I wean DD. I have a dodgy supply as it is so any drop is quite significant.

Just 13 weeks, but I feel so so yucky at this weight (20 ish kg to lose) and I want to do something serious to shift it now. I know my body doesnt drop kgs on low cal/exercise alone from previous weight loss pre pregnancy, but low carb is the only way Ive been able to lose before... Glad to hear your experience has been positive, have you lost any weight so far?
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:39 PM
I've heard you shouldn't, because it forces your body into ketosis and ketones leach into your breastmilk, which isn't good for bubs.
Stick to a balanced diet while breastfeeding.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 07:50 PM
This might help, there are lots of other articles to read at this website.
Posted 19 January 2013 - 08:02 PM
I eat a sort-of-low-carb-diet, because I suffer from low blood glucose, but I eat small amounts of unrefined carbohydrates - brown rice, bread with lots of grains and seeds etc. Could you maybe just do that until you're finished BF? Go for small amounts of low GI stuff?
13 weeks I wouldn't be too worried though. If you're hungry then you need to eat - eat good stuff, and listen to your body. Someone told me, and I'm now convinced, that you need to give yourself two years to recover from a birth.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 08:05 AM
I'm eating low carb high fat, and have been for quite awhile now (maybe coming up to 1 and half years, I'm not quite sure, could be longer).
Anyway, this whole time I've been breastfeeding two children with no problems. But neither of them were little babies when I started, they were older - I think the youngest was probably around one and half years old when I started.
I eat lots of non-starchy vegies and salad, meat, nuts, berries, that type of thing. I'm eating much more nutrient dense and healthy food than I was before (when I ate lots of rice and junk food), so I figure it can only be a good thing. I also eat heaps more than 1800 calories (that seems rather low, especially when breastfeeding) But as I say my kids were both older than yours. Anyway I've lost over 30kgs now while breastfeeding.
Anyway, 13 weeks after having a baby seems a little soon to be worrying about weight loss to me. I was just lazing around at that stage, taking advantage of breastfeeding to stuff my face, lol.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 08:11 AM
Don't do no carbs but I'd say you're fairly safe to cut carbs completely from one meal and stop any sugary drinks and snacks and see how you go. I'm breast feeding an 8 month old and have lowered my carb intake.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 08:27 AM
I don't think you should do the 'no carb' thing while breastfeeding as it messes with your body's chemistry. I'm vegetarian, so can't totally cut carbs, but I do go low carb whenever I can - I avoid rice/bread/pasta (particularly in the evening), but I do eat cereal (muesli) for breakfast, skim milk in coffee/tea, and I avoid sweet things. I did stints of low carb while breastfeeding without it affecting supply, but my babies were both 1-2 yrs old and eating regular food as well. I think the main thing is to not try to lose weight too quickly, drink lots of water and add in some exercise. A friend of mine launched into a strict diet and heavy exercise routine when her baby was about 6 months and she lost all the baby weight within a couple of months but lost her milk too. To be honest, I'd rather be overweight for a little longer than jeopardise breastfeeding, it's only a short period in your life that you are breastfeeding after all.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 08:29 AM
I was told it's at around 4 months that the weight starts to drop off when you're breastfeeding. Certainly that's when I lost most of mine.
I wouldn't go NO carbs, but a low GI diet with good carbs certainly can't hurt.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 09:39 AM
Thanks all, appreciate the feedback. I judge myself for wanting to be rid of this weight so quickly too! I was obese before conceiving, lost about 15 kgs with a no carb (ketogenic) diet in a few months after trying all kinds of diets/eating plans - this is what works for my body. Now, Im up another 10 kgs from pre pregnancy which may not sound like much, but this is on top of an extra 15 I had to lose plus Im only 5'2. Anyway, I know that if I cut out carbs completely the weight will drop off but I of course dont want to damage the breastfeeding relationship that I have...
Ill take your advice and try low carb which seems to still be healthy. I think I also need to watch calories a bit more closely, I probably am going over what I need and just dont realise it.
Posted 20 January 2013 - 09:48 AM
A low carb diet and a low calorie diet both caused my supply to drop but my supply was so tenuous to begin with that lots of minor things would impact it. I think it depends on you. You're pretty much established now so you could probably afford to watch and learn. If you feel wonky or your supply drops, include some low GI whole grains and see if that makes a difference.
Agree with the 4 month thing to. I started to naturally trend down from 4 months with not a lot of effort.

After having a baby, and while breastfeeding, my body completely changed. Pre-pregnancy I was 80 kg, end of pregnancy I was 93kg, 9 months of breastfeeding I was 65kg and now at nearly 2 years of breastfeeding I am 60kg. It has been dramatic. I now eat an awful lot more than I used to, although my diet is pretty clean (treats only about once or twice a week). I eat for hunger - I don't deny myself ever, but I also stop when I'm full. I eat everything although most carbs are in the low gi variety, mostly because I don't eat anything too processed.
Your baby is only 13 weeks. Definitely eat healthily and low gi, and dont overeat, but I would wait to see where things are at 6 months before doing anything dramatic like no carbs.

I have been on the Dukan diet for about 3 weeks and it has dried up my milk very noticeably! I'm okay with it given that ds is nearly 11mo but if iwas you I'd be very cautious!
Posted 22 January 2013 - 12:45 AM
You're only 13 weeks out from pregnancy and it is way too soon to be doing a drastic medically unproven diet. Even limiting calories to the extent you are is not a good thing.
Seriously give your body time and feed your baby. It will all come right with time.
Posted 22 January 2013 - 01:06 AM
Hi, just saw this topic...I've been reading stuff, but never taken part in any discussion. Thought I'd start
I was on a low carb diet just before I fell pregnant, (and lost a good bit of weight) but made sure I came straight off as soon as I thought I'd conceived. The Atkins book which explains the science behind low carb diets mentions really strictly that pregnant and nursing mothers should not do the weight-loss phase of Atkins. In fact, it mentions it a few times!
Just found the book, dusted it off, here is warning from Chapter 18 Regiment to Jump-Start Weight Loss 'And just in case you actually did the unthinkable, and skipped the beginning of the book to get to this chapter, let me repeat one important health warning: None of the weight loss phases of Atkins is appropriate for pregnant women or nursing mothers...'
As a previous poster mentioned, I believe it's to do with ketones (ketosis is where your body burns fat instead of glucose). A friend who is a neurosurgeon says this is a big no-no for breastfeeding mums.
So although I am seriously keen to lose weight or even just get out of maternity clothes (had my baby 2 months ago) I don't think low-carb is the way to go until I stop breastfeeding.. just don't know if it's worth the risk. Bust as soon as I'm done BF, I am definitely getting back on!

Im 5 months post partum, have been 'calorie counting' since birth (im quite overweight) and on 2100 calories (and eating back my exercise calories) Im losing 5kg a month, so nice and slow, and havent affected my supply.
Posted 16 January 2015 - 09:22 AM
Can you just change the type of carbs you are eating and try and always pair your carbs with protein? I find high in sugar carbs are an issue for me, but low sugar carbs combined with protein make a huge difference.
For example for breakfast I have oats as these have a fairly high amount of protein and are pretty un-processed. I also found them really good for keeping up my supply.
At lunch I have a salad, but add Chickpeas which have carbs and protein, then at dinner I typically have a no carbs
Posted 16 January 2015 - 09:43 AM
I live on a low carb diet pretty much full time (but I include milk in my diet), and I agree that it's the easiest way to lose/maintain weight without feeling hungry.
But if I were breastfeeding, I would just do a low GI diet, rather than a really low carb diet, and just limit the amount of white bread, pasta, sugar you eat.
I had GD for both of my pregnancies, so I had to follow a low GI diet, and I actually lost weight while pregnant, so if you are breastfeeding and on a low GI diet, you would probably find that you would lose weight as well.

McNabb needs to chill
Posted July 12, 2013
Wasn't Mcnabb the guy who got booed on national television??? Wasn't he the guy that didn't know how to find anyone on the field but Chad Lewis for his first few years as an Eagle?
I've never liked the guy much, but I won't say he didn't accomplish his fair share as a QB. What I am saying....he should hold his tongue a bit longer.....Stafford hasn't shown us what he's got yet.....
3 Comments:
We will NEVER see eye to eye on 5, but I agree that he should keep quiet about another QB's deal.
But there is a legit question here.
Stafford actually HAS shown skill but last year his team was just as 4-12 as ours. Where does the incentive to win come in if you throw 76 million a t guy over 5 years to well...not win?
[not displayed: comment from locked account]
This wasn't about his career here, it's about something he recently said.
