Ketosis (pronounced /kiːˈtoʊs ɪ ) is a state in metabolism occurring when the liver excessively converts fat into fatty acids and ketone bodies which can be used by the body for energy.

I would love to be able to fast, but until I have repaired the injuries to my body's blood sugar control system, my body is unable to mobilize its existing energy stores. Every time I have tried to fast I have collapsed physically. In this state it is not a safe endeavor.

It's the perfect crime, really - make them fat in a way that ensures they will stay that way, unless they seek other ways: http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2010/01/26/Sugar-May-Be-Bad-But-This-Sweetener-Is-Far-More-Deadly-Part-2.aspx

What's really sad though is that I don't even drink soda or fruit juices :(

it's safe if it's just once a week, sorta like a guilty pleasure

it's a nice idea, but it's really not safe for me until i can get things under control. besides, i prefer ice cream to soda anyway.

do you take 1,000 or 2,000 i.u. of vitamin D3 everyday?

heevoling January 28 2010, 05:05:35 UTC
yes, i do (2,000 daily, with proportionate calcium and magnesium)! and i've started 16,000 mcgs of biotin daily as well, to help improve blood sugar control until repairs can be made.

my fasting blood sugar was 104 this morning. it has started to creep in the wrong direction again, under pressures of excessive stress and erratic sleep patterns :(

it's very alarming to see movement in the wrong direction.

you're kinda lika a stock trader, worrying about day to day fluctuations

the fundamentals never change...adequate rest & physical activity...good habits of hygiene
then nutrition...for the long-term

micromanaging is evil

it's just that i can't afford to lose further control. i don't want this to end up being any harder than it already is.

I have wondered if I were to just eat, exercise and rest well, would I live to a ripe old age despite the extra weight and having been an obese child. I would be just fine with that in fact. What's killing me is the heartbreak of being unlovable, and who cares about the hearts and souls of the obese.

Re: the beef; that's why it's critical to know your sources. Find those who take their work seriously and you are more likely to stay safe.

i have noticed since the beginning...the mercantile aspect in you

your approach is always of the > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cui_bono

the capacity to love is more important than expecting or receiving love, or expecting love in return (and in kind)

even with religion/spirituality...it has always been a mercantile approach in you...you're a "cui bono person"

you can't hide what's really inside, for long
there's something cold & calculating in your approach
which repels you from people

or maybe your hunger for love etc. is just too great

Or it could be that I'm simply awkward and overly cautious because I've never been allowed to be myself, or that what I have to give and want to give is never wanted ( ... )

It would be nice to be able to just love someday.
