So, WTF happens when you're on cortisol?I did see that article. Interesting.
I've been subbing Plain Greek Yogurt for both Mayonnaise and Sour Cream for over a decade. Sometimes you need to thin it out a bit for consistency, but it's a great hack. Less fat and salt, more protein. Yum!How do you make your tuna salad? I've seen recipes using plain greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise. I haven't tried this yet.
New recipe just droppedI use mayo. Qnd 8 doctor it up with salt pepper onion and garlic powder qnd a splash of pickle juice. I add celery and a little onion too...yum
When my mom passed, my youngest brother requested her Holiday Apron. It's a full length, handmade beauty that her older sister hand-crafted. Photographic proof exists that he does wear it at the holidays when cooking/grilling. And good-natured teasing ensues... still, lovely memories there.So, do you wear a frilly apron while making them? Inquiring minds...![]()
I almost prefer it that way - makes a really stellar first impression.Got tossed to the wolves first day out. My direct supervisor is laid low with flu. So, Wat had to rely on previous experience. Good thing there is some.
Absolutely no requirement to keep current here. Jump in when you can - just happy to see folks when RL allows for some online frolicking.I can't believe I caught up after missing a couple of days! I think I was on a bit on Sunday, then must have gotten distracted by something. (A very important youtube nail video, perhaps?)
I have no idea why I skipped yesterday.
Well, it's Wednesday now! Halfway to the weekend for you wage slaves. Just another day for those of us who are retired. I was talking with my SIL today and realized we're at the END of January! How is the year nearly 1/12th over?!?
Keep up the good work on that Anti-virus Campaign!!No taxi for me this morning as doing so tomorrow. Protect grandpa from the dreaded norovirus.
The old dog has stage 2 kidney disease. We are keeping him comfortable as he is presently doing well. He is in dog hospice. Although sad his time will come to an end, I have so many fond memories of him.
You got this!!Today is weigh in
Makes the Welcome Homes that much sweeter. Safe travelsOff to the airport, well after taking the kid to school. Saying goodbyes. Never gets easier…after all these years. Hope everyone has a nice HumpDay…it’s either my first day at work or first day off…so I get two good ones
Of course! Is there any other way??
Is the house still standing?yesterday's house drama
Dang it! So sorry BSK. Stress is definitely evil!!Morning all. Last night was crap. My gut is all messed up (stress) and I couldn’t sleep (anxiety). Yeah, some days it doesn’t pay to get out of bed. Hope y’all have a great day.
I will be bringing you live coverage from theeventriots!
Nope, no shame in that at all! Hang your head high... and join us when you have the time to spareLike you I haven’t been keeping up (hanging my head in shame). Between work and real life I don’t get a chance to troll Lit as much as I’d like.
So, maybe it's my turn to sneak by unscathed...![]()
Dang it! I was so hopeful your first comment was going to stick. Sorry you didn't get a hall pass and are now feeling sick.My turn to catch up on the thread! Extra long zoom meeting this morning...
I think I'm starting to get it now. Really exhausted this morning. AND chills, then too hot, then chills, then too hot...
your body makes cortisol to fight inflammation control blood sugar maintain bp and helps you wake up and stay awake.... so if you have too much or out of balance it can cause weight gain or loss high BP sugar problems fatigue etc.....So, WTF happens when you're on cortisol?

YesLike is it a thing that people take?
If so, I was not aware of it. I know your body naturally makes it when you’re under stress and it’s not a good thing for you.

Right, I understand some of this.your body makes cortisol to fight inflammation control blood sugar maintain bp and helps you wake up and stay awake.... so if you have too much or out of balance it can cause weight gain or loss high BP sugar problems fatigue etc.....
Night shift people stay awake when cortisol production slows and melatonin takes over in normal.people so that is why night shifters have more fatigue weight gain higher bp etc... they r all out of whack
Cushing and Addison disease are caused by cortisol imbalances... Can't remember which is which
hmmm.Fight or flight response stimulates cortisol production
One of the functions of cortisol is to wake you up and keep you awake until melatonin (another hormone) helps you go to sleepRight, I understand some of this.
On cortisol morning dose right now (low-ish dose). Using it to fight inflammation, and it does that pretty well. Not sure what the side effects might be, or how that would play into sleep.
From what I understand cortisol is normally higher in the morning, and should taper off during the day...
I have zero fucks to giveAh, but the real question is... are you out of fucks?
(I heard that second part in my head like it was the Gray Poupon mustard commercial)
