LOL I guess I'm the only one. Oh well.

For me, when I'm craving cake or chocolate, I'll eat a Tootsie Pop (60 calories) or half a roll of Necco Wafers (110 calories) vs. the 300+ you get from cake or chocolate. Sometimes I just flat out crave sugar and fruit doesn't cut it. I figure that the Tootsie Pops and Necco Wafers last a long time and are very sweet and…

Edamame are great for snacking on

I made this last night: 2 tbsp olive oil Sliced carrots Sliced onions Cherry tomatoes, sliced in half Sliced bell pepper a few sliced green olives 1 whole chipotle pepper Any other vegetables you like could probably also be added 1 pound ground turkey 1 tortilla of any kind, I like whole wheat or spinach Cook the…

I have them fried for breakfast sometimes. Two eggs and a fried banana. Delicious! Slice it into pieces, put some no stick cooking spray or a tsp of butter in a pan and cook until the bananas start to turn brown.

I rarely eat cereal, but I love Golden Grahams, Frosted Mini-Wheats and Honey Nut Cheerios.

On the weekends, I toast or oven bake two sopes (see pic) and then put two eggs inside of it and salsa (preferably homemade with chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro and spices). Under 4 00 calories. Half that if you only make one.

I second this. I remember reading that very fresh eggs have an extra membrane that makes them tough to peel when hard boiled, but eggs that are 1-2 weeks old don't have this so they peel more easily. I peel them underwater in a pot which seems to help

Chunky all natural, store the jar upside down so I don't have to stir.

I think back to my Human Nutrition Professor in college who pretty much told us that if you eat more calories than you burn you gain weight and if you eat fewer than you burn you lose weight--period. She even said that you could do a Pepsi diet and drink a six pack of Pepsi every day and you'd still lose weight, though she…

Veggie sub Jalapeno or habernero?

Yeah, I thought about this part. Mostly, though, I like to snack on pickles and pretzels (though not lately). I do like to cook with a lot of spices and that includes salt and/or salty spice mixes.

Usually with hot peppers there's more heat in the seeds than the peppers themselves. That's why, when you cook with them and leave in the seeds, the food gets hotter.

SF, CA but looking to move ... have lived in NJ, NY and VT.

I *LOVE* sugar of all kinds, especially real Vermont maple syrup. For me, the key has been cutting back but not giving it up. I'm finding that substitutes and lightly sweetened stuff just doesn't cut it for me--I'd rather save the calories and just eat less of the real thing. My point is that if you love sugar and give it…

I think real emotional maturity is just being yourself and not caring so much about what everyone else thinks. If I'm 70 and still running and it's hot out I'm not going to wear a shirt and sweat like a pig (do pigs actually sweat?) just to meet someone else's idea of what I should be doing. Then again, where I live it's…

Six days a week of planned exercise for me. I take Thursdays off, other than walking the dog. I also work for a University so often have to walk from one building to another, sometimes up to 10 or 15 minutes away so I'm always moving in some way.

Fever dream

I'm a technical writer for a large university. I write stuff for both end users and technical documentation for IT people. Used to be a web developer but like writing A LOT more.

This is the forum for posting that kind of stuff, not to brag but to keep myself in check. Now that I know people are watching, even if it's just strangers, I think twice before stuffing a donut in my face :smile: and, on a day like yesterday when I didn't feel like exercising, thinking about the small validation of seeing…

Bullet with Butterfly Wings--Smashing Pumpkins

I confess that I'm still playing Fallout 4 even after having finished Far Harbor and reached level 95.

Vodka South Park or Family Guy?

Weekdays: whole wheat bagel with cream cheese and sometimes lox. Weekends: Vegetable omelette.
