I know frozen foods aren't always the healthiest, but I LOVE Amy's Mexican Bowls, Mexican Casserole, Enchiladas... I think Healthy Choice has a "burrito bowl" sort of thing as well. And Michaelina's (i think that's the company?) has a Spicy Chicken Alfredo as well. I really like the frozen meals cause they're easy to take…

buy some "Dude Wipes" - they're pretty great for a *kitten*-bath and they're flushable (Amazon). in regards to "should you"... hey, if it's not a strain on your budget, and it makes working out easier and more convenient... DO IT.

ditto to freezing and ditto to keeping a small amount in a plastic bin - then you have some on-hand if you don't want to worry about thawing. I do this w/ the "sandwich thins" which are essentially the same thing :smile:

They've done studies on animals with sugar and cocaine and the animals went for the sugar over the coke EVERY SINGLE TIME. So don't feel too bad.

My dad and I do remodeling things around the house together. Or if you're good at car repair, you could teach her that? I've always enjoyed the fact I know my way around a hammer and a Phillips-head Screw Driver :)

no?

HUGS for you!

Mysterious as the dark side of the MOOOOOOON!!!

Shoooooot... story of my dating life. Power through because you'll most likely regret it. They're usually pretty crappy in the sack.

and now I have "How Can I... Make a Maaaaan... Out of Yooooouuuuuu" stuck in my head. Thanks! :smile:

IMO, as long as you are telling your girls that your goal is to Get Healthy, make Healthier Choices, and Be More Active (and not put the emphasis on being THIN or losing weight), you are setting a much better example for them than if you were to continue down the previous path. If nothing else and you continue to feel like…

i have a pair of skinny jeans that are just a tad too tight, but i like wearing them because they work like spanx and hold me in just enough to make me feel better about my thighs and eat less that day because eating much while wearing them makes me feel sick.

I've totally been at work reading these for the past hour... I'm super far behind but would prefer to just keep reading.

i wish i could "like" all of these... i just keep reading through and thinking "wait, that's weird? i do that all the time..." :)

I think the important thing to remember from all of this is that if added sugar isn't helping you achieve your goals, there's nothing wrong with working to reduce it. However, it isn't a "magic solution." If you're a person who finds sugar to be a trigger for you (like myself), there's a good chance that reducing your…

Pinterest has TONS of recipes for smoothies. Personally, I like to use frozen chopped spinach (convenient, already washed, keeps for quite a long time), Unsweetened Almond Milk and Chocolate Protein powder. Sometimes a little ground flax for some Fiber as well. I use spinach instead of kale because spinach has a better…
