I was thinking of the vomitorium in the Hunger Games. I'm guessing it's the same sort of thing.

I don't know if you're using the app or the desktop version of mfp, but the link for the desktop recipe builder is: https://www.myfitnesspal.com/recipe_parser Input the totals of your ingredients, list how many servings there are, and oui la! Recipe done.

Subtract fibre from total carbs to get net carbs :)

I've lost a newborn giraffe, with a bale of hay to go.

^^ This. Running always burns more calories per mile than walking the same distance. The reason behind it is the energy required to make the movement, since they require a different gait/movement style. Walking requires forward motion, with one foot on the ground at all times. Running requires a forward and upward motion,…

I miss making them and taking photos! At the moment the hubster and I are on a super tight budget whilst our house is being built, so my lunches are pretty much batch cooked meals from my slow cooker and thrown into tupperware right now. My box collection keeps calling to me, asking why it's been abandoned :'(

But harvesting tonnes of pig pancreas' is so much more natural and must be better for me then the ebil GMOs! :D But if you go to my website, I have an all vegan, raw, organic juicing diet plan that will reverse your diabetes in 6 weeks! Sooner if you buy my supplements! It peeves me to no end that most of the fear of GE…

Heh, I figured with your username. Then how about the question I posed? There’s a reason I put (not just crop) in there. What about GE lab grown meat? They’re not quite there yet, but I’m sure it’ll eventually get to the point where it’ll be more environmentally friendly to do so. When the time comes that you can get…

Heh, you’re saying that to a person who now works in quality and compliance in the pharmaceutical industry. I’m nowhere near a lab anymore as haven’t been for over a decade. Funnily enough, the reason I’m so passionate about educating people about GE foods is not just because I support the industry. It’s about the lies,…

Your family situation, however sad, sounds more like a hereditary issue than a farming one, but that's not the issue for debate here. I'm not trolling, but I'm going to be blunt: if you want to avoid glyphosate due to toxicity, then you might as well not eat any fruits or vegetables ever, organic or conventional (whether…

The first thing I noticed (other than the loss), was the improvement in posture. Kudos to you!

I checked yesterday, and the shirts have been and gone already. Seems they were an Autumn release here, so there's only a few one-piece shirts left :'( I can get Doraemon tshirts though ;)

Really?!?! I need to check out and see if they're offering it in the Aussie stores!

That's what I was thinking it might have been. The fitbit app on iOS now has a female health feature that tracks your cycle and fertile window and after a few cycles will (supposedly) start comparing trends with your menstrual cycle and sleep/food/exercise habits. That being said, I have used 'mycalendar' before and it's…

I agree, a lot of the ingredients are regular ones that would go into a bento, and some are quite healthy, but there are plenty that aren't. A lot more rice is used than what normally would be for the sake of character moulds, and the lunchmeat that gets used (versus say a piece of chicken or salmon that's been grilled)…

You can add in pics in the forums through iOS but not android unfortunately. Total pain in the butt. And Uraraka chan is best girl! With Tsuyu being a close second lol. Currently, most of my bento's are identical to the last one I posted, with just the protein changing from day to day (eggs are my lazy choice).

I can at least answer the part on the cleansuit getup; it's to stop additional fungal/bacterial/insect contamination getting into the crop from footwear, clothing, fingers, etc. I bet there are anti-fungal sticky mats at every doorway and an intense pest control system that you can't see in the picture because it'd look…

I'm a nerd because I walked around saying 'may the fourth be with you' to everyone I've interacted with today.

I'm back playing Conan Exiles since it finally goes to full release soon instead of just sitting in early access. I haven't played it in about 12 months, and the changes they've made have improved the gameplay dramatically.

Haha I’m not surprised. And even if you do find them, gremlins will have taken half of the inner lids and bits just to frustrate you

Nomnomnom. Back to a more traditional box this week

Hubster gave me a TMNT bento box! It needs to be celebrated. It came in to a whopping 333 Cal, although it's probably about 10 Cal higher as I think the nutrition label on one of the koushoshibazuke (pickled vegetables) was a bit on the low side. Yay for bad translations.

As an FYI, I've just noticed there's now a second "This Girl Can" campaign. I don't know how to post video into the forums, so if somewant wants, feel free too. EDIT It's also an Australian campaign now. Seems it's gone from UK to global.

I remember when that advert was released. The UK-based (I think?) "This Girl Can" campaign was to get women to exercise more. It was in response to a study which showed that a high proportion of women were too embarrassed about their body to exercise because of a fear they'd be body-shamed whilst performing said exercise.…

I've never posted anything about my weight loss on any social media for the same reason. It's not even to remind them how big I became; it's more because when the drastic weight gain started I'd already shut myself off from everyone as mental health issues overwhelmed me, so most people outside of immediate family and my…

I was noticing that yesterday. I was working from home, and pulled one of my chicken & rice meal preps from the fridge and put it in a bowl to reheat rather than it's container (the container is 500ml), and the bowl was overflowing. At dinnertime I don't even fill the bowl up, so it was a bit of an eyeopener. And of course…

Prof. Yoni Freedoff (one of the few MD's that I trust in regards to weight loss information) has a nice blog post covering this particular study, and how even the study design contradicts itself in regards to the 'it's not the calories, it's what you eat' primary end point. Yes, Calories Counted (Literally) In The Recent…

In relation to the original question: if a TDEE site doesn't ask for your height, age, sex and activity levels at a minimum, it's never going to be even close to accurate, it is based off averages, so it's not going to be spot on for everyone. I find that I feel like they calculate TDEE at sedentary levels just fine, but…

I made a thingy! I also actually remembered to snap a pic of said thingy for once! Today's lunch is rice with 5-spice pulled pork (recipe right here) and mixed veg, including tomatoes and a mini capsicum from my garden as well as a couple of strawberries.

Lazy bento Friday... Ham mustard and vintage cheddar sandwich (we’re still going through our Christmas ham lol) and some mixed veg with olives. The tomatoes and mini capsicums are from my garden :) I tried to use the pokeball press on the inside of the lid on my sandwich, but the bread wasn't big enough :(
