Confession: I paired my aforementioned supernoodles with fish fingers (I think they're call fish sticks in the States). Best 'placate the pregnancy hormones' dinner ever.
When I was pregnant with my oldest, I constantly craved fish and chips (fries). I think I had fish and chips at least twice a week. So good. That actually sounds good now too...
I was craving it like crazy last week and my mom's boyfriend ordered it twice. I was peeved. So I made my own... much healthier and definitely helped with the craving (just with cod, rolled in flour, egg whites, and panko crumbs, then baked, and homemade baked fries). I bet it tasted better too... but I can't remember every having GOOD fish and chips here in the US either.
I can find OK fish and chips inland, but the best f&c in my experience are on the coast, where they cook fish all day long and know what they are doing with it. I'm going to try to make it at home, that is a good idea. I tend to stick to what I know, and I've never cooked fresh fish!

I confess that I too am having a hard time with all these Father's Day advertisements. I tried to go on a bookstore's webpage the other day and was overcome with all these ''BOOKS 50% OFF FOR DAD!'' or ''DAD'S GOING TO LOVE THIS!'' etc etc, so I closed out of it. I'm sorry you went through a rough patch with your father and I hope you two can patch things up together at some point (take things at your pace).spacequiztime wrote: »Confession: All of these Father's Day advertisements just depress me because I had a really rough patch with my dad this year, he really stressed me out while I was in the hospital and the time I was stuck at home, and still hold negative feelings towards him.
I'm almost done with the book I am reading and am going to go downtown soon to pick up some more for my trip
Excited about that.
EDIT: Why am I making such ridiculous mistakes. ''I do'' instead of ''I too,'' really?
I did see a couple of awesome FD cakes at HEB today though.

What do you eat for breakfast??
454g (2 cups) of Fage 0% plain greek yogurt, 140g frozen strawberries(defrosted for about 30 seconds..so still slightly frozen, but soft), 10g(2 tbsp.) of Hersheys Special Dark Unsweetened Cocoa, and a generous amount of sweetener(I use Stevia) to taste. Mix it all up...A LOT of food, very filling, and only 330 calories.
Sometimes if I'm out of strawberries, I'll use chopped raw apple(about 100g), OR 122g(1/2 cup) of canned pumpkin, and cinnamon in place of the cocoa. Also delicious for the same amount of calories.
Ahh, yeah that does sound really good!
I do a 90-minute work out every morning and it's all I think about...like my reward for getting up at 4:00am and busting my butt. It's like a chocolate pudding with strawberries...and so much of it!
The other ones are good too..like apple pie and pumpkin pie flavored yogurt. Mmmm... now I'm excited for tomorrow morning.
I was on one of those kicks several years ago. But I was doing 90 min. straight cardio sessions on either the treadmill or the elliptical. It was a great stress reliever and I was so physically tired by the end of the day that I slept great! But, for me, I was concerned I was risking an over use injury and was worried that I'd become reliant on that much cardio to maintain my size, so I cut back. Now I do 30 - 40 min. cardio sessions 3 - 4 days per week and lifting is my main source of exercise. I feel better and am really happy to have so much time back in my day, but I do get a little jealous when I see others doing that much.0 -
So I'm going to sound like a crazy person, but diatomaceous earth works awesome at getting rid of ants (or any sort of exoskeleton insect). It's basically tiny glass shards that gets under their little exoskeletons and kills them. You can get it at any garden center/Home Depot sort of place.
I like it better than the poison because I don't worry about it getting on me (don't inhale it though, or let your pets inhale it - glass shards in lungs is not good). Last year and this year I had ant problems, put a line of it where it looked like their home was (so they walk through it and take the little shards down into the nest to kill everyone off) and they were gone in a day. I then wash away the powder so I don't have to worry about my dog deciding to sniff it.0 -

Editing to add: I'm obviously not dissing this confession thread--I love this thing. I'm referring to the people who like to air all of their dirty laundry and that of their family in public for all to see. I find it extremely distasteful.
My "favorite" thing is when someone is fighting with their partner or a specific person and is posting all kinds of passive aggressive and hostile comments about it publicly instead of just messaging that person - or just talking to them in real life - because half the time they are sitting in the same house.
Exactly! I also especially hate the dramatic "fishing" ones where they say something totally vague like... "I'm so sad..." or "I can't believe this!! Ugh!!" and wait for everyone to ask what's wrong and if they're okay. -_-
Ugh, my terrible SIL is guilty of both of these. Hence, the "terrible".
I generally either ignore those, or in one case I texted my friend and asked him what was going on. Only because he and his boyfriend both posted some vague garbage like that at the same time. That was a breakup.
I'd much rather vaguebooking or attention seeking posts than the racist crap my SIL posts. I've unfollowed her.
I do not know how you cannot just rip her a new one.....I generally lose my mind if I see something racist or homophobic on facebook
I have. It's generally met with some comment about me being a "bleeding heart". OK, sure, I'll take that. Gladly. But, I'm sure the Jesus you go and worship every Sunday would be more of a "bleeding heart" than whatever it is you are.
In order to keep the peace, I've unfollowed her.0 -

I wonder what he would've yelled had he been jogging past dead, unwatered lawns instead?
He probably would have nodded and thought "good". Seemed like a human Grumpy Cat. I just thought it was so funny that he yelled it at us, like we had some control over the lawn care.
Human Grumpy Cat! Hahaha! Yeah, that's what I was thinking when you mentioned it was an apartment building. He probably had something negative and grouchy he yelled at each place he jogged past.0 -
I'm actually wanting to hurry up and get my workout and shower in for the day because it's going to rain from 3 PM onwards and I need to binge-watch the new season of Orange is the New Black. #priorities
I couldn't sleep last night I was so excited for it to come out!!! We all know what Laura's doing this weekend!
Unfortunately I don't know when I'll be watching it... My husband isn't into it so we're still watching X Files in the afternoon, and my kids only have one week of school left and most of them will be half days... so it might have to wait until September, as I don't really want to start the season and not be able to finish for months.
But to be honest, I'd rather watch X Files anyway.0 -

I have a cousin who posts crap all the time. She's the attention seeker type, so she'll post something like "Worst day ever" or "I'm so done", and then people ask what's wrong and she'll reply "I don't want to talk about it". SOOOOOOO ANNOYING!
I have a couple of those people on my wall. Or they post things like ''I'm so ugly!!'' along with a dozen selfies, and then when someone says ''You're gorgeous!!'' they'll reply with something like ''Yeah right'' or ''Thanks but you don't have to lie.'' Next day, same thing.
I finally had to exit a couple of groups I was in that were fitness related. Women would post pictures of themselves in bikinis or swimsuits and say, "Please, no negative comments, do you think I can pull this off in public?" or "I would never post this on my personal page" or some other such nonsense.
Why do you need a bunch of people's opinions about whether or not you should wear something in public? If you like it, wear it. If you don't, don't. That's the only opinion that really matters here.0 -

Even though you're younger than me- will you be my mother? I hate baking! I need someone to do it for me!
Consider yourself adopted, if you'll save me from myself by eating my baked goods. I LOVE to bake! But then I end up eating a little too much of what I baked...
YAYY!! I would like some chocolate cake with white whipped cream icing Haha that is why I'm glad I hate baking because if I did I wouldn't be able to stop myself from eating everything I made!
While it isn't chocolate cake, you reminded me of this dessert that I made when I visited family in March:
It's layered from bottom to top: Digestive biscuits (A bit like graham crackers), vanilla custard, Oreos, chocolate custard, repeat... And the top is real whipped cream (not the stuff in a can).
Oh YUM. I did something a little bit similar with graham crackers, strawberries, and ricotta (sweetened with a bit of sugar and some vanilla extract), plus whipped cream on top... Left it overnight in the fridge and it was a delicious breakfast, actually thinking of making that again for tomorrow, but without the whipped cream as I don't have any.

I swept the floors and cleaned them all and noticed that most of the ants were gone, but some still remained near the door of our apartment. My boyfriend and I finally investigated outside and saw some coming from a hole in our building, near our neighbor's door. This needs to be brought to the owner's attention, but I can't help but feel glad that it doesn't seem to be MY fault (food on the floor, etc). I was terrified to think that I caused an ant infestation
TERRO is fantastic to get rid of ants.0 -

Maybe that was his motivation; he yelled at different locations to keep him running. I use music, but maybe yelling helped him! I can just imagine him smiling once he got past your building! 0 -

I will definitely be looking for this . Thanks!!0 -
Ok I'm caught up.
Confession - I've figured out how to stop double posts... just close the window as soon as I hit 'post reply' even if the page doesn't load.
Second confession - all that talk of rib festival reminded me that there's another food truck festival here on the 20th... and I kinda want to go, but last time ended up badly (4000 calories badly) so I might have to skip that one.
Third confession - I should have gone to the gym or do a workout after lunch but instead I spent 1.5 hour catching up on the forums. I was due for a rest day anyway.0 -

I was on one of those kicks several years ago. But I was doing 90 min. straight cardio sessions on either the treadmill or the elliptical.

But, for me, I was concerned I was risking an over use injury and was worried that I'd become reliant on that much cardio to maintain my size, so I cut back. Now I do 30 - 40 min. cardio sessions 3 - 4 days per week and lifting is my main source of exercise. I feel better and am really happy to have so much time back in my day, but I do get a little jealous when I see others doing that much.
I'm very shy and would never go to a gym or run outside where people can see me. I also have to work out early in the morning before my son gets up...because my husband is getting ready/going to work. Anyway so yeah, I have to work out at home and always did the treadmill. I never minded it and, as you said, it was a great stress reliever. However, I've now started doing 30 minutes of circuit training(video) and then the remaining time on the treadmill. We have an elliptical too but I almost never use it.
As you mentioned, I do rely on it to maintain my size. I admit that I do cardio/treadmill so much because of all of the stress/emotional eating I've done over the past year and it's the only way I know I can keep myself from gaining a bunch of weight.
Every day when I wake up, I have no clue if I'll end up giving in to a binge and killing my calorie goal by 2000-3000. I am jealous that you slept good though...that's something that I struggle with...which also doesn't help when trying to not gain or give into binges.0 -

Good idea to add in circuit training. But from your picture you clearly have nothing to hide by going to a gym or being seen in public! I used to be that way, though, so I understand. Now? Don't care. I work out in the weight room along with all the young men (I go to the gym early to late afternoon and it seems to be all youngsters) and don't care at all. I just do my thing.0 -

Yes, same! I pair my salad with that "dressing", an egg white/cheese pita sandwich, and raw veggies dipped in spicy mustard for my lunch every day and it's 190-220 calories (depending on which/how much veggies I have) and keeps me full!!! Love it.
I would probably get eaten for ever daring to promote a cauliflower substitution for ANYTHING in the main forums, but what's probably my most favorite meal on the planet right now is mixed fried cauliflower "rice". It's the only thing I've ever tasted in which cauliflower actually tastes like/has the texture of the real thing, and I can eat a bowl the size of my head for less than 400 calories. I'm seriously in love with it. It is SO GOOD. *drool*
Yeah... I made some. Ate the whole thing (seriously, a whole cauliflower plus all the toppings etc). I managed to make myself sick of it after one attempt. Go me.
Still love cauliflower but nope that way anymore LOL.
Trying to catch up... you all have been busy. I went to see Jurassic World instead of working out. Then got home, made myself a huge salad... and had 3 cookies and 2 squares of chocolate. Should still be within my calories though (there's a school party with food trucks tonight but I'm having dinner before going, I don't need a 1200 calories meal).
I have made a curry cauliflower dish for years but I have not made it for while. I'm going to have to fix that problem soon.

That sounds good! I want to try a whole roasted cauliflower next... I have one in the fridge.
Confession - I feel guilty because I haven't done anything today exercise-wise. Apparently can't do rest days. So I'm going to drag my kids to the gym after school.0 -

Trying to catch up... you all have been busy. I went to see Jurassic World instead of working out. Then got home, made myself a huge salad... and had 3 cookies and 2 squares of chocolate. Should still be within my calories though (there's a school party with food trucks tonight but I'm having dinner before going, I don't need a 1200 calories meal).
I have made a curry cauliflower dish for years but I have not made it for while. I'm going to have to fix that problem soon.
Recipe? Pretty please?
Has anyone else been getting randomly added by people you've never interacted with in the forums or anywhere? I find it annoying, especially because my profile is designed to avert friend-collecting friend requests. They don't even bother to leave a message with the request, which means they probably didn't even read my profile... So why add me at all? :-/0 -

I love hot sauce too! I use apple cider vinegar, hot sauce, and Mrs. Dash Garlic and Herb spice as my salad dressing every day. And hot sauce goes on pretty much everything else too! I use a bottle of it every week...just for myself.
Yes, same! I pair my salad with that "dressing", an egg white/cheese pita sandwich, and raw veggies dipped in spicy mustard for my lunch every day and it's 190-220 calories (depending on which/how much veggies I have) and keeps me full!!! Love it.
I would probably get eaten for ever daring to promote a cauliflower substitution for ANYTHING in the main forums, but what's probably my most favorite meal on the planet right now is mixed fried cauliflower "rice". It's the only thing I've ever tasted in which cauliflower actually tastes like/has the texture of the real thing, and I can eat a bowl the size of my head for less than 400 calories. I'm seriously in love with it. It is SO GOOD. *drool*

I've sent *one* friend invite. And I have a ton of friends. Mostly people who send me a request then never interact with me again. I don't get it.. but I'm too lazy to go through the list and remove the ones that don't interact.0 -

I've had a couple of younger women... most of them disappear quite fast, to be honest. I think one may have been an early contributor on this thread (hazy recollection).
My profile isn't even visible to non-friends (it's quite uninteresting, I didn't put much effort into it). And my diary is only visible to me.0 -

Yes, same here. I've received three recently but I've never heard of them. I don't add people anyway. I have two friends and they are people I know in real life.0 -

Yes. I have nothing other than my age, that I'm female and a quote on my profile. I don't log food and I don't interact with too many people other than this thread. It's weird that it's happening to a lot of us though, isn't it?0
