Like my wife was a very picky eater. She was very much into I want this and nothing more. So when she could eat again after six months of not being able to handle more than Ensure. I would fix things three or four times before that was OK. I never knew what would be OK. So I prayed. For two months God told me what to fix. She ate it. Every stinking time. No more two or three rejections. That could not be by chance.
The devil isn’t that smart, it’s just we are idiotic
Once again more power to ya I’m glad you found a way to process life
Knowledge is power my guys
I made sure I never told my wife I had prayed about it.
Why not she should know why
I’m sure she’d appreciate it
I guess placebo effect
She was freaked out. After two weeks she said. How can you know what I will like. Then I explained God was telling me what to fix.
Then she’d hate it again
Double blind tests and placebo are interesting
The most effective ways to prove somethings actually doing what it’s intended to in a study
An absolute blind test of is God telling me it.
To be fair in a study, it might be doing what it is supposed to while a placebo effect also works
That’s why placebos are interesting
The body believes in something that isn’t anything
You never know if it’s a placebo an actual effect or both
The organizer of the study should know what’s happening in the study
Yes. But this was impossible. I did not tell her till she asked after three meals a day for two weeks. Every one she liked without exception. Sometimes she could not eat much but she liked what she ate.
Also that’s the point of the placebo the organizer knows which is which
Yes but, even if they are taking the pill which helps, a placebo effect may be placed on top of that
No that’s not how an experiment works
So it would feel as intended for both placebo and real pills
That’s why placebos are introduced
And double blind tests
Neither the proctor or patient would know which is which
Yes if done properly no one knows what pill is what.
Ah, see I didn’t factor in the double blind
The point is to make sure no one knows and no external forces are at work
So yeah
Only the administrator and that is hidden from the one taking it and the one given it. Even the administrator may not know till after the test is done and then it is studied.
Well steve, what do you mean by “fixing” her food
As in removing/adding ingredients?
Cooking or warming up some food. Several possibilities.
And so “god” told you stuff like warm up her food?
Sometimes a dozen or more. Hashbrowns, eggs with cheese or not rice on and on.
Hmm, interesting
Have you cycled through various plates over time
You could have struck a lucky chord
I did what I could to try to help her eat. I in no way complained when she did not like it and I had to fix another. I knew she needed to eat to survive. It was a lot of work. Usually the fourth would mean she would not eat.
Was it picky or a serious eating disorder
