Today's breakfast
I had seen somewhere about combination of eggs and cottage cheese for scrambled eggs. Decided to try it today. Had 2 eggs, 1/4 cup cottage cheese made into scrambled eggs. The rest of my plate 1/2 cucumber, coffee with 1/4 cup lactose free milk, 2 tbl college peptides, cinnamon. All together 30 grams protein

You could also blend the cottage cheese and eggs, add sweet or savory spices and then cook like pancakes. I grew up on those.

Why I signed up for Nagina's course
I have been a professional weight loser. I've been playing this game of ups and downs since late high school. I was a practicing bulimic and binge eater through college running eight miles a day and still gaining weight because of my habits. My husband and I have done Weight Watchers more than once with success in losing, but not in keeping it off. In between we had an incredible life in Alaska where I was constantly on the go, however skipping meals was how I lost weight which I gave myself permission to eat treats or sugary items from time to time. I had a killer wardrobe and loved how I felt. Then we returned to the lower 48. During COVID we did Keto, however the program I chose was focused on his body type. He lost 50 pounds, but I gained. Then he gained it all back. We buy organic groceries all the time, however our life is such that we are often in a "fast food season" as my husband's career pulls him in multiple directions with little consistency; he's on-call 24/7. Starting day 2 of the 5-Day Metabolism Boost workshop gives me hope even with what I was able to implement on day 1 that my husband and I can be successful. More than anything, I'm curious to hear more of what she is teaching as I think it will build on what we have learned so far and begin to undo the negative thinking and shame/guilt we've experienced in the past. I love the mindsets. Good food for thought!

Kombucha??
Curious about how kombucha might fit in the framework discussed. Not recommended??

@Bridget Sloane are you putting your story in ginger green tea? I would think the ginger would injure the scoby. If you add fruit or say pumpkin and spices I do it in a second ferment. The sugars get eaten in the ferment stage

@Sandra Slaven You can start with small amounts. I generally make enough for about 24 to 32 oz. It is also best for second fermentation to use the bottles with flip tops (thing the beer bottles that you can open and close). I have used cleaned store bought kombucha bottles but have had a few lids blow (messy to clean ceiling and everything else). When you are first getting started it is best to use black tea or a blend of black and green tea. Your scoby will have a better chance of getting strong. I also make it with coffee - that scoby will make it for several months and then get weak. Many will tell you that you can't use honey. Not true. But it does have a different name. I also tend to use less sugar than many recipes call for - but experiment. You can taste the liquid as it ferments. When you no longer taste sugar it is ready. If you wait longer it isn't bad but may be sour. Be sure to cover your jar with a coffee filter, cheese cloth or even an old square from a tee-shirt. If you brew more than one type - keep the jars far apart from each other. For example I don't keep the kombucha brew close to a sauerkraut ferment.

Set back in my lessons
I have had a fall so missed on 3 lessons. Hope I can sit and catch up tomorrow and get back to my routine with the follow-up lessons. Missed the Weekly Planning though which I cannot recover
