  • Welcome back, Aquon01. I'm new, too, but like you, have been on before for 2-mos. I'm doing Dukan until I lose 20-lbs, as I slowly increase exercise, so it's nice to be back. Good luck on your track. Keep us posted on your progress!
  • Calories & nutritional info listed are for the product in the container only. With cereal, the milk calories wouldn't be added because there's no way of telling which kind of milk you'd use, fat free, 1%, 2%, whole... all differing caloric counts. For example, the rare times I eat cereal, it's dry out of the box without…
  • As to the original q, I'll tell you what works for me in the hope it helps. I suppose different results are always achieved based on one's normal weight and/or weight struggle, age & sex, health condition, activity level & normal diet. For me there are 2 diets. A weight loss diet, which I've only needed once after an…
  • My mum used to keep a bowl of carrot & celery sticks in the fridge to snack on anytime, so I got used to it. I still snack if hungry, but instead of chips & pretzels, which I'd prefer... I reach for the aforementioned, yogurt, handful of grapes, few raisins/figs/dates, if I crave sweet or a couple of olives/small…
  • Sex Pistols, Stooges, Dead Boys, Germs. Is Sonic Youth considered punk or no-wave? A lot more I can't think of now... you gobsmacked punks are pressuring me! And, grunge that followed was awesome, maybe cuz I lived in Seattle at the time it began & could get away with washing my bleached out tangled mane every other day.
  • INFJ/P. The last letter differs on subsequent tests. I'm unsure what much of it means, but have been asked, strangely, on a couple of job interviews.
  • 41 & New Zealand. Okay, I cheated... & I would have guessed 32 & Glaswegian.
  • 30-yrs ago, I worked at a huge company in Natick, MA that had a vending machine candy thief. Of course, security thought it to be someone working night shift. Turned out to be a squirrel in the bldg... the doors were left open on summer days, so he'd apparently snuck in at one point & had no reason to leave with his…
  • Cravings are odd, aren't they? Lately... jarred Italian tuna in olive oil (drained), a soft boiled egg yolk (the whites creep me out), an avocado, 2 olives. If I could wash it all down with a bag of Ruffles I'd feel better, but I skip those for now.
  • My goal is to marry Zac Efron, retire to SoCal & surf all day. Until then, it's to lose the 20-lbs I gained recovering from foot surgery & return to being as flexible as Gumby. Nice to meet you all & good luck!
  • I come from a big medical family. Hormones affect periods or lack of them. Drugs, the same. It seems as if you need a good over all check up to determine the cause of your distresses. Good advice above to see a dr. Good luck!
  • Getting back to normal after a long foot surgery gone awry recovery. Being on the road for 1-yr didn't help with maintaining weight, so, I'm glad to join all of you. Good luck everyone!
