    Please help me settle a debate.

    What is a normal number of eggs for one person to consumer in a week? Let's imagine this person eats meat, but not necessarily every day, and not big portions of it. This person happily consume plenty of wholegrains, fruit and veg, dairy (and too much sugar but never mind that).

    So normal number of eggs in a week?

    I'd ask in the normal forums, but I don't want my face ripped off by the 'eat all the protein carbs are evil' mob. (Not having a dig at you low-carbers, just at the way some people harp on about it!)

    Actually, what'll skew that number isn't LC vs regular, but lifters vs non-lifters. I know some of the guys out there go through 5-6 eggs a day. I'd say it's safe to ask out there, just phrase it as what's normal for a typical, non-bulking person.

    Also, did you do a search in the forums? I think it has been asked before, because I had looked it up months ago. You might find some other answers there too.

    Here are pictures of my fur babies. I am WAY behind on this, but I wanted to join in on the sharing party.

    This is Owen. I fear he's not to return. It's been over 3 weeks now and haven't seen him. That makes me sad because he was my baby boy.

    6enh80drb2ti.jpg

    This is Lucy and Otis. Lucy is the big (for her breed, she's actually on the small side) Staffy, and Otis is the little one in the background.

    qtlw994hg1gz.jpg

    Awww, they're all so cute but I love big dogs so can I have Lucy?

    ETA: I love their names and I'm really sorry about Owen

    You'd have to fight (physically more than likely) my husband for her. That's his baby and he was heartbroken when she ran away a few years ago. That's a long story and she didn't run away on purpose. Anyway, NO, you can't have Lucy. Although, you're more than welcome to come and visit her. :smile:

    Edited because sometimes reading and typing is hard.

    Deal, I'll bring my Hannah :) she's my profile pic

    And she's adorable! I also love big dogs. Grew up my whole life with them. I just don't think I'm a small dog person. The smallest I think I could go for my own dog would be a Frenchie. I love Frenchies.

    I totally want a Frenchie!!! So cute!

    tpqxbxnydohh.jpg

    I KNOW!!! I mean how freaking adorable is the this little pile of rolls and fur?! I already have a name picked for when I get him. Pierre. Cute, right?!


    Gimme one! I want a brindle, tho.

    I want all the wrinkly dogs, French, English, pug, mastiff, shar pei, bloodhound.

    ALL the wrinkly dogs...ALL! I have hubby talked into a pug when the boys are older. I want a Frenchie but he says they're too expensive.

    He's right, they ARE expensive. If I DO get one, I'm going to go through a rescue. I have a heart for rescuing things. I think it's one of my spiritual gifts. :smile:

    I just now finished my protein shake. It was warm and gross and tasted nothing like chocolate cake @quiksylver296

    Unless I have a huge dinner, I'm going to have a hard time hitting my calorie goal today. I'm just not feeling like eating. I just want to lie down under a blanket and not be working. I will force myself to walk the treadmill at lunch so at least I can get some kind of physical movement today.

    side note, does anyone have any experience with Anthropologie? I found the CUTEST swimsuit on there yesterday but I didn't want to fork over the money if it's not good quality or has a crap return policy, etc.

    bexu1ow7ilgn.jpg

    What do you think? Now, I won't look anywhere close to what she looks like, but I think it's sexy pinuppy but still super modest and conservative.

    Very cute! Although I can't wear anything that hits my thighs right there. It is not pretty!

    Yes, I agree with @kellienw335. It is really cute, but you generally don't want the bottoms to fall at the largest part of the thigh. Of course, that may not be true in your case. How do you think it will fit?

    Sorry, but I have no knowledge of their quality or durability, though.

    I swear they should have that option. A two hour sweat session between the sheets should definitely count

    It does ;)

    Or at least I hope so, that's how I justify our post coital snacks

    I tried on a pair of swim shorts that hit in about the same place and they were super flattering and they made my butt look incredible. I should have bought them. I'm not sure how it will fit and I'm nervous about spending $148 on something I can't try on first. But I'm 100% in love with this swimsuit and it got all 5 star reviews on the site.

    ModCloth has ones like that, I think, and they're far less expensive, I think! I can't check right now, but I strongly believe they have ones that are very similar! (I only state this because I've had very, very good experiences with ModCloth and their shipping/quality/return policy!)

    I used to break spaghetti into 3 when my kids were little. I still break it in half. I rarely order it in a restaurant because I don't like the looong strands.

    I also never order ribs. I hate getting my hands dirty, even if it's because of delicious ribs.

    I stopped eating meat 25 years ago because seeing raw meat grossed me out. I stopped eating anything you had to rip off a bone 35 years ago. Completely turns my stomach.

    That's very similar to my explanation of how I eat: if it reminds me of what it was when it was alive, I don't eat it. Sometimes it's appearance, and other times (like pork) it's texture that puts me off.

    I can force myself to cook it but I won't be able to eat the end result, having handled it.

    But I can eat ground beef from time to time (bears no resemblance to dead cow, in my mind) or small pieces of meat like ham in pea soup or chicken bits in fried rice with no problem... just don't plop a steak on my plate.

    I'll volunteer as tribute to eat your steak. Oh, and pork.

    I accept, thank you! :)

    You get my steak, roast, porkchops, bacon, ribs and chicken parts -- never been able to eat wings.

    (Needless to say, anything with a bone in it immediately fails the "it used to be alive" test.)

    And apparently my egg consumption isn't as high as I thought...

    I know I've got you beat, but then, that's keto problems ;)

    For the first time in my life I care about muscle mass and, sadly, I can confirm that protein intake has a huge impact on the success of lifting. "Sadly" because I've happily eaten high carb/low protein until about a year ago.

    I have binge eaten so badly that I got sick and threw up, on multiple occassions.

    Thankfully I am on the path to seeing a therapist to deal with my emotional eating!

    I'm so glad you're getting help! :)

    When i get on the elipitcal in my basement I have to cover up every clock in the room including the one on the machine and then I spend the entire time trying to figure out how long each song I hear is or how many minutes between commercial breaks on the food network show I'm watching and how many minutes I have left. I hate it.

    I close my eyes. It seems like it drags on and on when I stare at the time on the elliptical. I also listen to music and tell myself 1 more song, ok 2 more songs, now 3 songs, etc etc.
    Eh, it works for me. :blush:

    I do 20 minutes of cardio every morning before I lift, and I get through that by telling myself at least I'm not doing squats (my least favourite lift).

    When I'm into the lifting part of my workout, I just keep reminding myself that at the end of it I get my reward, my delicious Dyna Whey iced cappuccino protein shake (you're reading this, aren't you @JPW1990 ? ;) )

    I've bought a few tops from there and they're really nice and have lasted but I've never bought a bathing suit so I can't speak of the quality of them! Sorry!

    They had lots with similar top but a regular leg cut... as far as I can tell on my crap monitor, which distorts images horizontally. Not many with the longer boy-short style leg though.

    I confess, that's a hot picture. I may have to save it to my hard drive so I can double click my mouse later, if you know what I mean. Or would I be clearing out my cookies?

    Well I get what you mean but since you're a dude ( I think) you would not be doing this.
