In case it hasn't been said, eat really slowly when you start again. After fasting for that long, you may throw up if you start eating again to quickly.

I keep thinking about my Dad. He played hockey and soccer. He was a distance runner and enjoyed rollerblading. You would never believe he was in his 60's by how young and vibrant he looked. Injuries and illness have completely destroyed that. He would give anything to be able do these things again. So, I keep on track, if…

No, long story short. The people I work with are emotional bullies who constantly change the responsibilities of my employment daily to suit their mood. I often think of shifting focus but DH is adamantly against the cost of education.

Black bean burgers and grilled corn. :yum:

In this past year I've been involuntarily included in several woo MLM products. 1. Thrive supplements 2. Weight loss coffee 3. Hydraslim 4. Herbalife Mostly because my SIL keeps trying them to lose weight and sell them to supplement the cost.

Lol that's a good one. How about this one: Strangely appropriate since I went home and ate mini chips ahoy for lunch lol (stupid halloween. Did you know the mini halloween chips ahoy are accidentally vegan? me neither!) OP - Dairy allergic vegan here B)

Yes, because then I get excited when I lose it. B) "Allllrighttt!!! period's gone and I'm down 4lbs...this is the best day ever!!!"

This just made me lol in the middle of a conference. Well done. :D

I'm on synthroid but you should always take your morning med. The only time I didn't was the day of my gallbladder surgery.

This and press it. It can be mushy if you don't press the liquid out of it. Tofu scramble is a definite must try! https://delightfuladventures.com/southwest-tofu-scramble-breakfast-tacos/

Yeah, nuts are calorie bombs lol. There are several other recipes for a cheeze sauce that's made with potatoes and carrots and a few recipes that are made with cauliflower. Although, a word of caution. If you make vegan cheeze thinking it's dairy cheese you will be greatly disappointed. ;)

I remember working at Zellers back in the day when that ab shocker belt came out. They were so popular that they'd sell out within a hour of stocking. :|

I was trying to find a more diplomatic way of saying this, but now that it's out there. Me too.

I'm also a vegan and both these statements are true. This documentary to me seemed nothing more than scare tactics, misinformation and a large chunk of bad science.

It was late at night and I was taking the garbage out. (through the backyard, beyond the back gate to the alley where the bins are) I suddenly had a sharp pain in my chest and I went to my knees. After what seemed like a few mins, I was fine, stood up and walked back to the fence and through the yard. but it was all…

OMG! Do you remember when they changed the packaging and it had "NOW WITH FLAVOR!" written on it? :dizzy: oh man, that creeped me the hell out.

IMO, if the child was old enough to understand the rule, then it should be enforced, regardless of who got what. Rules and consequences. Like a few other posters, I take more of an issue with a cookie being offer as a 'reward' instead of just another snack. It seems like this may setup more problems in the future with…

At the risk of derailing this thread further. I have no idea if this classifies as a 'real food' (or even what that means :confused: ) but this is the recipe I use for creamer. It's pretty awesome by itself, but it's also good as a base. Sometimes I add in pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon.…

I think opening it is the only way to tell. Sour, clumpy and thick = bad. Google is saying unopened shelf stable almond milk may stay good for 3-4 weeks after the expiry date. But if it was me, I'd probably just toss it.

You're the thread starter. You tell us :smiley: :D Do we have to be over 50?

The last time I went to the rec center, there was about 15 people there including this very elderly man on the elliptical. He caught my eye, because he was moving so incredibly slowly. Like barely crawling on the thing. So, I started my workout and about half way through and suddenly this elderly man slumps over the…

Boo. I thought this was going to be a debate on the HAES/NAAFA movements. :/

I have 4 rescue cats. :blush: Jasmine, 17 yrs old. White/Grey tabby Pyre, 10 yrs old. Orange tabby Destiny, 5 yrs old. Black long hair (profile pic) Noriel, 3 yrs old. Tortoiseshell-tabby

Started splitting meals into more servings. A dinner for 2 became a dinner for 4.

I sent you a message :) check your inbox.

5' 4.75" SW 310lbs (ish) CW 155lbs (I'm lifting atm to lower my body fat %) no idea what my measurements were. Too afraid to do it. Start in 2012. I totally could have done this faster, but I decided it was more sustainable for me to lose for a bit, then eat at maintenance, lose a bit more, then maintain again. And Thank…

This guy resembles a hack that came through town a few years ago, he was spouting some hoopla that he could tell what was wrong with you by just placing his hands on you. Then you had to buy his supplements after to treat whatever he said was wrong with you. Mom-in-law got suckered into his nonsense, she was the one…

Lentils, black beans, kidney and navy. I find red lentils have a milder flavor than green ones. They don't really over power your dishes. https://rebeldietitian.us/plant-based-protein-charts/

Not quite at my goal yet. I'm still toning :smiley:

All seafood :mask:
