PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS Pure Coffee Club Pure Vitamin Club Villa Cappelli F Bomb Crowd Cow STELLA UPDATE Stella had a surgery recently She is Vinnie's older vizsla Recovering quite well from her surgery now They removed her spleen and with it, a volleyball-sized tumor They are biopsying this and other lumps We are hoping it is benign If it is cancer, we will treat her Hopefully will find out something early this week Sadly, our cat Lola also had to be put down this past week BE KIND IN THE FACEBOOK GROUP People on the FB group have been getting out of hand Ganging up and insulting other people in the group DO NOT DO THIS, even if you do not agree A doctor had posted in the group asking for studies Nobody provided her studies, people started attacking her We need to be nice!!! There's a difference between a joke and overstepping and being wrongly rude Don't attack newbies! If they are trying, that is great Also do not post photos of other people who are overweight without their consent Can be extremely damaging for people who are going through stuff You don't know where they are in their journey This all being said, we aren't going to remove every reported post Some people do take offense to non-offensive things CALORIE COUNT You do not need to calorie count on NSNG® Calories are not a good measurement of what you are eating They are not created equally Check out Good Calorie Bad Calorie A calorie is just a unit of energy Your body can't store sugar as sugar after a certain level Stores it as fat This is why CICO does not work You can have fewer calories but if too many of them are sugar, you will still gain weight and fat (Also, take in higher fat with protein so your body doesn't convert the extra protein into sugar) PLEASE SUPPORT LONNIE AND THE BEAUCHAMP FAMILY HERE
