Variation on a tuna melt using gluten free baguette and tuna mixed w/Primal Kitchen Chile Lime mayo & capers topped with shredded pecorino cheese.

Don't even thing about it!

I weep for humanity.

Give me the treats or the tree comes down.

Todays topic is hunger pangs. Here's an article talking a bit about it. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/321725 How do you experience actual hunger? I'm one who feels hunger pangs strongly. Sometimes it's like a gnawing and other times it is actual pain and even nausea. My partner on the other hand says he never…

I've met the goal of AF Sun-Thu this week. I may or may not have a couple of drinks today and tomorrow. Playing it by ear. Somebody earlier made a comment about drinking out of habit and I think that's what I do on the weekends. By making Sunday AF I'm attempting to make it less habitual and more of an active decision.

January goal: < 120 Joining a little late this month. Same goal as the last few months. 07 - 121.2

Lemon parm salad and spaghetti alla carbonara using the rest of the bacon and some pecorino rather than guanciale and parm because that's what was in the fridge. I think this is only the second time I've ever made this pasta dish and it seems to have turned out OK. In any case it was delicious.

Sockeye salmon over sautéed power greens, cherry tomatoes and polenta w/balsamic bellavitano cheese.

Do you track everything? Every day? Or do you skip higher calorie times? I track everything every day (except of course the occasional pass day). A few times I've suspended logging for the day once I'm over calories especially if it was because of a restaurant meal which is always more difficult to track. Do you weigh your…

Track: yes Calories: yes Exercise: yes* Treadmill: 1.33 mi / 22 min Pass Days: 0/0 I don't hate the treadmill but I don't love it either. It's more that I tolerate it but I'm also not a runner. I read while I'm walking which makes it not so bad most of the time. A couple of years ago I was doing a 5k most days but then…

Chicken stir fry over soba noodles.

I can understand that @Mouse_Potato ... I had thought about doing a Dry January but in the end just decided an extra day to my normal AF days. I'm doing it more to keep calories at the lower range as I seem to be up 2-3lbs from the holidays in spite of eating maintenance level calories. I'm sure it was related to what I…

For January I'm planning to extend my usual Mon-Thu AF to Sun-Thu AF. I like tart cherry juice with sparkling water or club soda as a non-alcoholic beverage. It provides the stronger flavor that I prefer. I'm going to start trying to create a mocktail of the week for this month as well.

I'm so sorry for your loss @Winner_in_Life That's tough especially in a new city where you may not have much of a support system yet.

Day 15 of EPIC II - full body strength & cardio circuit workout. I usually enjoy the EPIC workouts but this was too much calisthenics and not enough weight lifting for me.

Well whatever the problem was yesterday it seems to work today as it should.

This is the problem with everything regarding healthy eating, exercise and nutrition ... there's so much conflicting information out there even amongst so called experts. And it's not easy to study unless we lock people up and 100% control what they eat and what exercise they do. A lot of the studies are observational and…

Happy New Year everyone! I truly hope 2022 will be a much better year than either 2020 or 2021 and we won't have to deal with this stupid Covid anymore by the end of 2022. Our NYE plans were canceled earlier today because one of our hosts was feeling poorly this morning and decided it would be too risky to get together.…
