Apologies. My last post wasn't an intent to broadcast will power. What's been weird about the past 8 days is that I really haven't had any cravings. I honestly don't even think that much about food. I did read that loss of appetite could be a byproduct of keto, but I didn't believe it. The popcorn moment was just the first time all week that I smelled or saw a food and actually thought it might taste good. Trust me, I'm a huge proponent of instant gratification, which is why anything else I've ever tried hasn't worked.

Went to a movie today. I can't recall ever seeing a movie w/o popcorn and Coke. I hadz sad but didn't give in. I guess some foods are harder to drop than others.

Wonder whatever happened to Norman Watkins. He would come in at random times and blow up the qb , but as far as I can recall, he never started and def didn't make the NFL.

Will do. I never,ever want to show or use my gun in public; however, if I do, I def want to ensure I have my legal ducks in a row.

Thanks for all the info. I guess it wasn't such a dumb question after all.

Thanks. I get reciprocity as it pertains to travel. Are the rules the same when someone gets a license in TN but moves to TX? I.E. do I just run with my TN license until it expires in 2022 and get a TX version or would I be doing something illegal by assuming my currently valid TN concealed license is ok now that I live in TX?

What about Diet Coke with Splenda? I'm allergic to aspartame/Nutrasweet, so I drink a couple of these every day. No carbs.

First of all, thanks for all the info on this thread. As one who grew up with very anti-gun parents, I'm way behind when it comes to information and terminology.
Does anyone know what the law is re: reciprocity and moving to another state? I got my carry license in TN. It's good through 2022. I now live in DFW. Would I need to update or get a new license here in TX or does the reciprocity stand w/ a TN license even though I live here now?

I couldn't sleep (for the 8th night in a row), so I ate a Pop Tart last night. Slept like a baby.

There's a video of it on Liveleak. The gas is spraying out of the pipe like a fire hydrant. Crazy because I get a little nervous when my gas stove doesn't immediately light.
I feel bad for folks desperate enough to do this; however, it's ass-fucking stupid to be among 100+ people all clamoring for gas. It only takes one spark.

Hayes is really developing. He’s just a smart basketball player.
You're damn right. I can't believe they (announcers) stated that he only played 6 minutes a game as a junior on his high school team.

I'm torn.
I really want this team to make the tourney. Sure they won't go very far, but, for me, March Madness really, really sucks if my school isn't being represented.
OTOH, no way Shaka gets fired if he makes the tourney.
In a way, it kind of sucks rooting for the team to barely be successful.

So? Sugar is the real enemy. Not fat and it’s related components. Sugar causes the inflammation that kills arteries. Don’t eat Whataburger often if the sodium is s problem, but do it keto when you do. Everyone gets to have a cheat meal now and again. Just no bread.
I kind of did last night, but I think I still stayed just below 20 grams of carbs for the day. Went to a Greek restaurant. Had grilled chx and zucchini with a side of green beans and about 5, silver-dollar sized pieces of fried zucchini. I think the fried zucchini was coated in corn meal.

Does YouTubeTV carry the local Fox Sports affiliates- specifically, FSSW?

I was flipping through the channels last night and saw that aggy was playing Auburn in basketball. I switched over to see the score. In the 10 seconds I watched, I saw 3 aggys behind the announcer's table doing the upside down Hook 'Em while the announcers discussed aggy's 79-61 home court deficit with 3 mins to go. Imagine that...
You're down 20 pts,
At home,
Not playing Texas,
Not in a conference with Texas,
You don't play Texas (except for baseball),
You get on TV and you decide to do the upside down Hook 'Em.
It used to piss me off. These days, I just think about how pathetic it must be to always have Texas in your head(s).

My understanding of the keto flu, having gone through it once, is that it's a carb-withdrawal thing, and it happens before the ketosis kicks in. That is, you're not in ketosis yet, and you're not getting any energy from carbs, so you crash. If you're in ketosis, you should feel fine. Maybe you just got into ketosis fast, without any problems and skipped the flu - so congrats.
Or I could be wrong about the whole thing. Some of y'all have obviously had a lot more experience with it than I have; am I full of shit? I do consume a lot of fiber.
I guess I could be one of the lucky ones. I've completely stuck to the no-to-low-carb thing thus far without any problems - except for the insomnia. Sunday morning was my last real carb meal. I've eaten nothing but beef jerky, fajita meat, chili, cheese, celery, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, and those instant egg/sausage cups. Oddly, when I got home yesterday, the keto strip tested almost nothing. In testing it again tonight, it's further to the right than it was 3 days ago.
Another odd thing is that I'm not really craving any foods. Sure, if I could get away with it, I'd eat a Whataburger or pizza, but I honestly don't even think about or consider it. I figured I'd have much worse cravings than I do. I am getting a tad tired of the aforementioned foods; however, I should be good just adding variety without breaking the deal.
One last thing. I did a pretty strenuous bike ride this afternoon. For the first 5 miles, I was really suffering. After that, I felt fine other than I was far more thirsty than normal. I was only out for an hour, but I didn't feel any real fatigue.

DirectTV used to be such a good company/product. I recall a time when everyone was switching from DISH and cable because of the amazing service. Nice fucking job AT&T. For years, my wife has been on my case to throttle down and cut the cord. I've resisted because we watch a lot of different channels and paying a few 10's of dollars extra a month was worth it to know that I'd be able to find 99% of what we watch.
With the current inability to get anything fixed, I'm about to join y'all. I have the 4k service but the GD channel doesn't work. I get a, "Your tv does not support 4k content" message. The F it doesn't. It's a 4k tv which works fine with every other 4k content I have. I'm averse to calling in to fix the problem because every time I try to get something fixed, I'm on the GD phone multiple times for multiple hours. Y'all should have seen the process by which I simply needed to replace the "master" box. JFC, it took 7 phone calls and two different returns to get it fixed.

Didn't feel 100% today. Could just be because I haven't slept right in 4 nights. I don't feel ill or anything. Just a tad fatigued and moody. Up a pound as well. WTF is that?
I did find something I really, really like to eat though.
The cauliflower substitute for mashed potatoes + fajita steak + cheddar cheese. I honestly would have eaten this no questions asked if I didn't know it was part of a low-carb meal.
One glass of wine has given me quite the headache.

My wife buys a case of bottled water every week. We have a fridge with a water filter.

Just got back from my school district's spelling bee. 40 students dressed professionally and to impress; one aggy dressed his or her kid in a 12th man football jersey.

I NEVER visit CR and my Twitter feed is 100% sports, weather, and breaking news. That being said, I did take the time to go to Gillette's Twitter to tell them to F off.

He's got to keep the Russian/Ukranian hottie on a leash somehow. He was obviously getting paid because there was a part where he got a question he absolutely didn't want to answer but he couldn't just get up and leave.
Finished the end with my wife. Kind of disappointed that there wasn't more footage of the actual event and subsequent disaster. IIRC, it got far from comical after the 1st day (what was shown in the doc re: those leaving on the plane). I also thought it was kind of b.s. for all the hanger's on to throw him under the bus know full well they were also complicit. Of course, they're probably not in the business of admitting fault with all the lawsuits going on.

FWIW, the TN carry class was 8 hours long with a written and shooting test. Believe it or not, I was shooting a hand gun for the 2nd time in my life when I took the test. I was actually worried I wouldn't pass - as crazy as that sounds now. I had purchased the gun and shot it at the range (about 50 rounds) one week and took the class the next. Luckily, one of the guys that ran the place had a practice laser pistol and was giving me pointers during the break.
I did have a bb gun on my grandfather's farm as a kid and shot a .22 once.
