Congratulations Neil on the fundraising fantastic work.
Lindsay, I can’t even begin to imagine the stress of what you are going through. Lawyers have perfected the art of dragging things out as long as possible, less money for them if cases are settled quickly. And to put yourself and OH through those horrible questions from the psychiatrist, which I assume is an attempt to discredit you or find something to use against you. Just shocking beyond words. I do home these resolves for you both very soon and you can put the legal battle behind you.
I think when we are under pressure and stress, we become super sensitive to things that normally wouldn’t bother us. I know I felt this way when Mr GDay passed, every little thing bothered me, whether it was something that directly impacted on me or not.
When I was speaking to the lawyer with OH’s will when it was contested, the lawyer told me that the law was there to be ‘fair and equitable’ to everyone and I just laughed at his face and asked him if he seriously believed that – he downcast his eyes and didn’t respond.
Day 3 completed with no dairy, and I can’t say I feel any different other than I’m really, really missing dairy. But will persevere and try to complete 2 weeks. I will attempt to make homemade mayo in a moment so I can spread that on my homemade bread as a substitute for butter, cheese etc as well as mixing with mashed boiled egg as a spread. My homemade mayo attempts in the past haven’t always been successful; I struggle getting the emulsification process to work properly so fingers crossed for success this time around.
Quacka don’t be disappointed with your results, there will be weeks with a loss, a gain and sometimes no change at all and that is the nature of how the human body works but as long as your trend is heading downwards over a period time then all is good.
I think Dr Clare and her son Dr Jack are doing brilliantly at continuing the work of Dr MM. I follow them both on Instagram and am really impressed with them both for providing down-to-earth advice around good health and wellbeing.
Thin, it is so sad to see the UPF’s and drinks people are consuming. Unfortunately, governments around the world have a severe lack of political will to stand up to the UPF companies and enforce proper food labelling laws that make it blatantly clear what the product is and the negative effects it has on the human body, and mind for that matter. I know we’ve had this discussion before and yes there is an element of personal responsibility but the circumstances of so many people doesn’t afford to give them the knowledge or understanding to make the right food choices. They believe what is on the label because they honestly don’t know any different, UPF is all they know.
Mmmm…..worried about LJoyce, it’s been so long since we’ve seen a post from her I do hope all is okay.
