I think I get what you're saying. Bacon for instance gets a bad reputation due to the amount of fat however what most people don't know is it's 54% monounsaturated fat which is the good fat like olive oil.

Sauce has water in it so it will evaporate when cooking. The nutrition will stay the same though.

Are you using hr to calculate calories? My teenager and I can do exactly the same thing but I will get a lot more cardio and fat burn then she does. She's young and fit, I'm middle aged and getting back into shape. It makes a big difference.

How bout join a second fitness app like Fitbit? That way when one goes down you have a back up. Pack in the "friends" on both so you're likely to always have someone supportive around. Emotional baggage is the hardest to loose and even harder to maintain untill you get enough practice. And instead of beating yourself up…

I could be a car but alcohol would be my windshield wiper fluid. 😁 Either way. You do you. Whatever works. Good luck!

It could be just water retention. I read somewhere that you can gain like 5lbs in just water by changing how much sodium/sugar your eating, being more physically active (initially), etc. If you didn't go over in calories that much I would just wait it out and let your body regulate.

I cook primarily with whole fresh/frozen ingredients but I don't put a name on it.

I had to explain rice cakes to my teenager. lol However, in all seriousness, if you like it eat it, if not then don't. If there is something you like more, go for it.

Chilling after evening farm chores.

The day when you had to rent the vhs player with the movies you rented.

I'll be your friend

Only 8:48 here. I'll be up for a couple more hours.

Still iffy. lol It's all good though, takes a special kind probably.

I'm good. You can move on to the next poster. ;-)

lol thanks!

I need a spoon tonight so yeah. ;-)

Walk the PCT, AT and CDT.

Tiramisu is not grilled. lol

What kind of pranks? That's an iffy statement.

Take your memory with you when you go... Just keeps going around like a broken record.

How about prolly? That makes me nuts.

I just want to have an intelligent conversation, be heard when I'm talking, not have to defend my character against snippets of "sarcasm" and not have to listen to constant complaints.

Me too. Too many years out of practice.

Homegrown bacon. :-D

Damn I think I'm making that for dinner. Now to go crush the calories so I can eat guilt free. :-))

Smoked some salmon and cabbage for dinner last night. The salmon is only flavored with wood smoke, the cabbage is sprinkled with balsamic and Worcestershire.

Yum! I just smoked a salmon last night. :-)

I feel for people who have a bad relationship with food. I can't imagine. I also wouldn't want to be in a position where any emotional connection could be stronger or more fulfilling than with another human being.

I'm pretty sure watching someone else eat would be far less satisfying than eating or having a fun romp. No offense. Lol

I love food but I can't imagine it ever substituting sex. Or at least not good sex. You can never have an emotional connection with food. Not the way you can with a person.
