euheide's Journal, 04 February 2014

Yesterday I was super tired and didn't even touch the computer heheh. Today I'm feeling better :)

I just found out the magnesium capsules I'm taking have sucrose lol... It's near impossible to escape sugar! That won't change my diet though.


Weight went down today which was a good surprise :) the bio-impedance says I'm at 9% body fat. The real number is definitely higher but it's always good to see where it goes from here in the long term after weight training for some time because, any permanent decrease in the number will probably mean a decrease in fat, despite the device's inaccuracy :)

I decided that I will go lightly at my first weight training session, since I don't want to get traumatized right at the begining ahahah.

130.5 lb Lost so far: 13.7 lb.    Still to go: 7.1 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

I have read a lot about the importance of magnesium with our bones. I guess it plays even a bigger part then calcium. Sorry to hear they have fake sugar in it. Not sure how things like that are ever helpful. Lol

Thanks iamachristianjesusfreak! That was surely not a nice surprise but hey lol... :) I think they do it for the liquid to taste sweet. Despite the fact that sugar is a health hazard, it has this level of infiltration in our society that it even finds its way to drugs lol. Hopefully it won't disturb my balance even while taking two capsules a day :)

They say it has sucrose, but they don't say how much ;)

I don't know why they have to put sugar in everything. Crazy! Maybe there is another brand that's more natural.

Wow, wonder why they have to add SUGAR to that!?? Just like, why do they have to add caffeine to sodas??? there's NO REASON. (Don't go throwing tomatoes at me now hehe)

When my daughter needed antibiotics the only choice i had was either with real sugar or with a sweetener that would probably give her a sore belly!

I agree Skwhite! :P The problem is this was prescribed by my doctor heheh and since I already have the full package, I would now have to waste it to get another one plus having to make another appointment to get a different one without sugar. Besides, the doctor would probably look at me like if I was an alien and not have any knowledge of which magnesium drugs don't contain sugar lol :D

I could try to bypass the Dr. and go straight to the pharmacist but I would still be wasting 2 packages :P heheh

never mind where I wrote "full package" I have two lol.

Thanks Babe53! :) I think they possibly add caffeine to sodas for a greater addiction. Both sugar and caffeine are highly addictive substances and people will have a hard-time laying off sodas because of that since many sodas have both :P. lol (the tomatoes) :)

That's definitely not good Ninaj! Still, between sugar and artificial sweetener, I would probably go for the sugar :P

I would go for sugar too. That was something that has been consumed for years. We just consume more now then people used too.

Definitely iamachristianjesusfreak! As unhealthy as it may be, it is, at least more predictable than those chemical replacements :P
