I agree that having the oil good and hot should help avoid having too much oil sopped up. As far as using your scale, it seems far easier to me to batter your slices, weigh them, fry them, let them drain, and weigh them again. Should be easier than weighing your Fry Daddy :smiley:

My usual go-to snack is a dill pickle. Especially the Claussen brand. You have to be mindful of the sodium.

Looks like there might be a need for honesty coupled with tactfulness in regards to dealing with kids...especially broaching the subject with their parents. Is the child in question honestly at risk of malnutrition or obesity or some other condition? If so, what is a tactful, appropriate, and effective way to address this…

I am lost...what were we fighting about?

"It's time to eat, kids." "It's time to eat kids."

Think of THE CHILDREN! It doesn't matter if a law makes sense or not. It doesn't matter if it is helpful or harmful. All that matters is whether or not the intentions were good. It's all about the feelz.

I totally disagree! Wanna fight about it?

Good work...really big difference!

I wasn't aware of there ever being a debate on this subject.

I hate to say it, but there's not much you can do for them. They like eating what they've been eating and the negative consequences aren't bad enough for them to want to make a change.

Glad to see you here. I hope you enjoy a lot of success!

When the charges get dropped!

I'm glad you're back and wish you all the best. And that little fella's smile in your profile picture is adorable!

And now I feel bad for making fun of you, because I totally agree with you.

Yeah, but on the MFP forums, any and all trangressions, no matter how slight, must be corrected IMMEDIATELY. Even if doing so seems silly and completely unnecessary.

Howdy! You can change your daily calorie goals manually. I've had too much rum to remember how...but you totally can!

Ha! This post is from June! No one replied for WEEKS, and now...

Tallahassee, yo!

Hey...I'm not trying to be rude... DO NOT let yourself make excuses!

I lost 85 pounds last year pretty quickly and had some loose skin. However, it tightened up within a short time.

I drink diet sodas regularly and have actually developed a taste for them. I. I'm more of an aspartame kind of guy than other 'fake sugars.' That being said, when I do have a 'regular' soda, it's really good!

Oh I thought this post was asking for advice on how to binge. You know, the thing about the wagon is that it comes around every morning, so just jump back on. Folks have told you to keep the things you binge on out of the house, and I agree completely. I'm glad to see you recovered well!

Sorry if that link didn't attach correctly. It gives 150 calories, 4g protein, 12g carbs (all sugar), 7g fat

Might have to check their website. I have also been successful finding things in the USDA database. Good luck!

Recognize and accept that you will not see a loss every time you weigh in. That's ok, though. Something that works for me is breaking up the big goal into much smaller goals. I want to lose 20 more pounds...but I'm not looking at 20 pounds...that'll be a while. I am, however, looking at what I'm going to choose to do after…

1. Listen to my life advice. 2. Do what I do. That's my world-famous Recipe for Disaster.

1100 calories a day...How 2 loose weight?

Iron weighs more than Styrofoam. o:)
