LOL This couldn't have come at a better time. I got home from work ( I'm a hair stylist:} My lower back has been killing me after work. So I walk in, grab an ice cream bar and turn on CZcams. Perfect timing. Hugs!
LOL, I’m so glad the timing worked out perfectly! After a long day on your feet as a hairstylist, you definitely deserve some relaxation. I hope your lower back feels better soon. Thanks for tuning in and sending hugs your way! 🍦❤️
I'm a sugar craver, and I have 2 autoimmune diseases. Thanks for making why I crave sugar, make sense. I'm so glad I found your channel. Thanks again from a fellow Canadian.
Hey Keri! I totally get the sugar cravings. I’m so happy you found the video helpful, and even happier to have connected with you. Thanks for sharing a bit of your story with me, it means a lot. Keep hanging in there, and feel free to share anytime!
This was a terrific exploration into the love/hate relationship between sugar and our bodies. Thank you for taking the time and effort to stay up to date with such a wide variety of topics that relate directly or indirectly to living with chronic illness. This is a great help to the community because many of us lack the energy, resources and time to get at what’s really important and best for us. This is such a big help to me personally that I can’t find the words to describe how important I find videos like this particular one. I think you’ve managed to put the awful July that you’ve been through behind you, and with this video it looks like you’ve hit the ground running! I’m sure that this video will help many others to make better decisions regarding food and pre-exercise snacks. Thank you so much for working so hard and sharing what you know with your viewers. Words simply fail me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm really glad you found the video helpful. It means a lot to hear that my efforts to stay up to date with topics related to chronic illness are making a difference. Your compliments about the video and the impact it's had on you truly warm my heart. Knowing that it helps you and others in our community makes all the hard work worthwhile. I'm hoping that August will be a better month for all of us. Thank you again for your support and encouragement! 💖
Thank you so much, Nadia! I'm glad you found the information helpful. And thank you for the compliment on my hair. I love the layers too but I do miss the length.
I watched this video at the right time! I'm in such a bad pain flare, and am craving sugar. Can't cook right now (that bad), so I grabbed a 0 sugar protein bar (no gross ingredients). My husband was just on vacation last week, so we did A LOT. Pushed too hard, I'm such a mess today!
I'm so sorry to hear about your flare. Those days can be so tough. Good call on the 0 sugar protein bar though! It's great that you and your husband had a fun vacation, even if it led to pushing a bit too hard. Take it easy today and don't be too hard on yourself. Sometimes we just need to listen to our bodies and rest. Sending you lots of healing vibes! 💖
@tt_looking_glass thank you! Still flared. I just got diagnosed with arthritis on top of everything and nerve pain in arms and legs. I'm a hot mess! 🤣. It's ok though because it was worth it!!! Yep, just have been resting and not pushing myself.
@amandalininger1616 oh man, that’s a lot to deal with all at once. I can’t even imagine how tough it must be to add arthritis to the mix of everything else you’re already managing. Nerve pain is no joke either, it’s like the universe decided to hand you the most frustrating combo deal ever. But your attitude is amazing! Honestly, being able to say “it was worth it” in the middle of all this is such a testament to your strength and spirit. Resting and not pushing yourself is the absolute best thing you can do right now. You’re taking care of yourself, and that’s what matters most. Sending you lots of healing vibes and hoping you get some relief soon!
I had a health scare a few weeks ago and my doctor thought I might have a very serious illness. Testing was negative but I do have a condition that is mostly a big inconvenience, and easily treated. The problem is that the pills that the doctor prescribed are raising my blood pressure. I’ve just started taking a spoonful of unsweetened cocoa powder twice a day in decaffeinated coffee and I’m getting positive results already. I don’t want to have to give up the new medication because it’s helping me sleep better at night, so I’m determined to make this work. I’ve also started eating more fresh fruit and I’m taking a CoQ-10 supplement with added beet extract. I’m seeing results in less than two weeks so wish me luck with getting more sleep and keeping my BP down!
@user-gn3cx8rt6q Dark chocolate is the best! And you're right, dark chocolate does have its health benefits, so why not enjoy it? 😉🍫 @lumberlikwidator8863 I'm so glad your tests came back negative, even though it sounds like quite a scare. It's great to hear that the unsweetened cocoa powder is helping with your blood pressure. Finding those small tweaks that make a big difference is so important. Sending you lots of positive vibes for continued good results and better health! 🌟

This video was really interesting!!

Thank you Daniella. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! BTW your hair looks great! Love the layers!

me watching this while trying to avoid eye contact with the gummies in my room...
Haha, I totally get it! Those gummies have a way of calling out to us, don't they? Stay strong and maybe treat yourself to just one... or two. 😂🍬
@@tt_looking_glass I'll stay strong 💪😤

How'd your channel get to #1 on my subscriptions list ?
Love that. ❤️ I guess because you comment a lot (which I appreciate) so CZcams knows you interact with the content.
@@tt_looking_glass what'll I'll do with the seat in hell they're reserving just for me ?
Wait for me and I’ll join you. 😈
@@tt_looking_glass something to look forward to in a world of toil and woe. Did you get the the comments about your July of hell ?
