Meal prepping for the week

2,000 calories a day is moderate for most people. A 8” pizza doesn’t sound like that much. It depends on the quantity of ingredients. The calories can add up With dairy products. Also what else did you eat that day. If you only eat 2 meals a day it would probably be fine for most young men, but metabolism is slower as we get older.

I wanted to raise chickens, but my 13-year-old is highly allergic to eggs so I have not, but I’m still pondering it. A couple years ago his duck hunting dog that got into the neighbors chickens one time, and when he came back my son petted him, and it caused my son to swell up and even affected his breathing slightly. (Dog is gone now, anyway).
Want to raise chickens myself but it seems like it may be asking for trouble because of that, so then we buy all our eggs from an elder in the church that raises them and they graze “wild”.

Is that allergy with duck eggs? We raised white Pekin ducks and they have nice big eggs. They are stronger tasting then chicken eggs, but I like them about as much.

The allergist told my wife that he is, because they have the same protein make up… Whatever exactly that means.

Ok, its a high fat high carb serving. Walla! High carbs and high fat is the basic American diet that is clogging arteries across the world. Moderation isn't your calories, its what you choose to make your calories. You use to eat keto? Didn't you understand what ketosis really means? Keto isn't a food, it is a metabolic condition. I see individuals everyday who claim to be keto, but are more like Frito, and lots of them.

Chickens know how to take care of themselves.

No one is allergic to eggs,

That's your first mistake.

This should be a thread all on its own.

Religion gets a bad rap for being a cult, but when you really look up close cults are everywhere. People like to be told "things" and believe those "things" because someone wearing a uniform told them those "things"

A lot of people in my area that raise chickens have problems with foxes and raccoons getting into them and killing them, although it might be that they are not locked up tight at night. I take it you don’t have any problems then of anything messing with your chickens.


Regarding my son’s not being allergic to egg whites.
When he was probably four years old, we went out to eat at a Mennonite restaurant, and at the end of the meal his face and throat swelled up and he had trouble breathing and mucus started running out his nose. we later took him to a doctor, and they ran some test and said he was allergic to egg whites, and gave us an EpiPen to use if he accidentally got egg whites that come in prepared meals. there have been several instances where he had some effects by eating something that had a little bit of egg white in them, like a pie. He can tell that they were in there because it messed with him, like with his stomach and with clearly breathing. I was at the doctors office about two years ago when we tested him to see if he was still allergic to eggs, they pulled his shoulder sleeve up, and poked him just barely into the skin with about five different things in five different areas, one of which was egg whites, and it swelled up in that area, I think the other things might’ve been peanuts and I don’t know what the others were. They tested him for allergic Ness to both egg yolk, an egg white, and he was allergic to both, but more so allergic to the egg whites.
Please explain your position and why it is that he (or anyone) is not allergic to eggs when the doctor said he was allergic especially to egg whites. Where do you stand on allergies to food or even like tree pollen, mold and honey.
Or are you not being serious with your comment that nobody is allergic to eggs?
