Still attempting to lose more weight. Not done yet, but it has been quite the journey! Granted, I'm down to about 150-153lbs right now. I just don't think there is much of a physical difference.

I only accept friends who leave a message for me. If there is no message then I deny it. Almost none of my friends ever comment on questions I post on my page. So friends can be pointless if you choose ones who don't pay any attention. Lol

OP, this is something you can do. Willpower is not easy to come by but it is possible. Up until the last year my willpower was 0. I suffered greatly from bulimia (binging and purging) and emotion issues and it took a toll on my work life and home life. I lost weight, sure. But I gained a whole lot of unhealthy habits that…

How exactly do you marinate a boiled egg? That sounds awesome.

My significant others lunch for today. Jasmine rice, french green beans, hard boiled egg, and lightly breaded chicken chunks. Plus the fruits. Mine was similar, I just couldn't get a pic of it. :(

Shirataki noodles w/ shrimp and mushrooms in a jerk sauce, a turkey rolls with blue cheese crumbles and grapes, strawberries & cantalope! :)

Meatless Meatballs (Kale and Quinoa) over spinach, grapes and Krave snacks! Not the coolest lunch but I was lazy.

Got my bento box in! It's small, but it's the perfect size for me. AND, surprise suprise! My local walmart redid the store and suddenly is selling fresher vegetarian foods in the veggie aisle! I'm not a vegetarian but I can't eat many meats because of my stomach so woohoo! Lunch yesterday: Marinated tofu and mushroom…

I'm the calorie counting nut in my household. My marine-significant other has always been well built but he also loses weight like a champ. I tend to feed him the foods I wish I could eat myself (I bake all sorts of stuff and pack him huge lunches). I didn't realize I was causing him to gain weight. Instead of telling his…

<3 I will maybe start taking pictures once my bento box comes in. So far they aren't nearly as cool as everyone elses but I made black bean patties last night and made an awesome one with those, cherry tomatos, hard boiled egg, raw mushrooms, and some grilled chicken for the Misters protein!

I've started making my loves and mines lunches like this in plastic containers. I may or may not have been inspired by this thread and bought a bento box online last night. :smiley:

I fear raw eggs. But this sounds cool!

So I that bento thread really caught my attention. That is an amazing idea! I may or may not have purchased a Bento box online last night so we'll see where this goes! :)

I have two big skulls tattooed on both of my upper, outer thighs. One is a skull with roses around it's head the other is a melting skull with a straight razor through its head. They're big but you can't see them unless I wear short-shorts and then you can only see the bottoms of them. I like to keep them hidden and then…

I eat less calories during the day when I'm not sure what I will be preparing for dinner. I eat most of my calories after work so it's easier for me.

I'm not going to lie, I have tried high protein breakfasts and all sorts of stuff. Eventually I bought carnation breakfast essentials (sugar free, chocolate) and that is the only thing that keeps me full until lunch time. I used to make breakfast sandwiches for the entire week on Sunday, I'd wake up and make eggs or toast…

Oh jeez! Looks like Houston out there! Hehe

I've been really slacking on packing in the miles on the roads recently....finally got myself out, though. Headed for the county airport to watch some planes land and take off (nothing is more cool then low flying aircraft right over your head!). After all the floods down here in Texas it was nice to have a sunny day. This…

I didn't even think about craigslist (where I just sold my last two frankenbikes) or garage sales. I haven't bought a bike from Walmart since I was a little kid! It must be the desperate need to ride making me derranged to want to buy one from there, I know... I'm taking a look at that website now. I have a road bike but I…

Is it from a restaurant?

I would be interested in this too! lol I saw this once on a website: Ingredients * 1 (12 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate (thawed) * 1½ cups (12 fluid ounces) tequila * 1 (12 oz) can diet 7-up (1½ cups) * 1 (12oz) bottle or can of light beer (1½cups) * Lots of ice cubes * 2 limes, cut into wedges Instructions 1. In a…

I finally bought one off of Amazon and have fallen head over heals in love with it. My chicken measures "One breast to 4oz". The day I measured my chicken breasts I discovered the majority of them were a good 6-8oz in size. Life changing. Lol

Welcome! I'm from Texas and my favorite ride is any and all new rides. :) I mainly do off roading and am very limited on trails around good ol' East Texas. The highways here can be very dangerous for road cycling because the teenagers around here are notorious for driving in the ditches (and aiming at cyclists :( ).

Oh wow that actually sounds awesome. We only eat ground turkey so this sounds like an awesome way to spruce up our normal turkey burgers!!!!!!

I've done that a few times! I ran over a huge snake that was across the entire length of the road once (I didn't see it until it was too late).

I've never thought about putting Mozerella in the eggs before. Hmmmm...

My life is chicken dinners. It is my quickest go to meal without it being eggs (with is also my life). Every two weeks I buy a 5lb bag of frozen bonless, skinless chicken breasts. For two people it usually lasts two or more weeks (with other meals in between). I also make sure I have a jar of chopped garlic and a family…

Are you going to Scarborugh Fair? :# Couldn't help it. Yet another day off that began and ended with storms. I can't catch a break! I don't mind riding the trails when it's raining but the humidity in between storms really kills me sometimes. They're doing a trail clean up tomorrow (That I have to miss for work :neutral:),…

I never ride on the road at night simply because I'm afraid of things coming for me from the woods! East Texas for ya.... We had someone get struck and killed by a car Christmas Eve last year. He was riding in the lane without any lights on his bike, wearing all black. The woman was at fault since she wasn't paying any…
