I try to keep feta on hand as it rocks on a salad and is healthier than blue. If there is something I am eating that really requires cheese, I just use a bit less and use a stronger tasting cheese, like sharp cheddar rather than mild to get more flavor out of less. I skip the cheese on a burger as I pile on the veggies and…

Yes, because if it was always 30 lbs before you dropped a size you'd weigh zero to be in a size 2 or some such craziness. I have lost about 17 lbs and am still in the same size so I guess I have about 13 more to go to get into a size 14.

"So if any of you people come through Wyoming.. and you come through Pinedale, send me a message.. I'll gladly share some game with you!" We were out that way last summer! Beautiful country! I was going to ask if you made jerky- it is so expensive to buy at the store, so we make our own too.

I spelled shiitake wrong and it got starred out- funny! That's one mushroom I wouldn't want to eat!

Sounds diverse, I just have lots of pork and deer in my freezer with no room for anything else! I take the cuts of venison that aren't so tender and braise them in my Dutch oven with wine, spices, etc. I prefer this cooking method to a Crock Pot if I have the time, nothing beats a Crock Pot on work days! Look up braised…

I am on day 92 and was thinking when I go on vacation I won't have wi-fi so will be offline for a few, so biggie since there are some people with way more! This reminds me of perfect attendence in school- My oldest son once went nearly the whole school year with perfect attendence- he would have gotten a limo ride to go…

This Southern girl will never ever give up some things like green beans cooked with what every Southern cook has in a container by the stove that comes from cooking a breakfast meat- I shall not name it out loud it is so shameful! I have given up sweet tea and deep fried everything, besides an occasional helping of fried…

at work I get bored, bored = false hunger, so I get up and walk around

I used to not worry about sodium but it does affect your weight even though it's just "water". It's still demotivating to gain 3 pounds on the scale overnight because you overdid the sodium. I love making soups homemade and use lower sodium broth b/c those cubes are pretty much all salt. Some foods are sneaky so track…

Don't know- don't want to be the one to find out either! Besides stevia tastes much better (to me at least).

me too! My kids and husband hate them, they like the smores and brown sugar. Once I saw Amazon had something like 6- 12 packs of strawberry ones for 19.00 and I couldn't resist- there was no way I could eat all those so I sent them out in troop care packages! Hope whoever got them liked strawberry.

It does something to your gut flora which can mess with some medications. There was a very recent study posted about it. I think they also found it can be a factor in diabetes. I always heard it was discovered when scientists were trying to make new pesticides and it is more similar to DDT than actual sugar so I try to…

That crap is terrible. I didn't want to throw it all out so we made bird feeders where you put the seeds on peanut butter spread on a paper towel roll and all the birds in my yard left ;)

My husband's work has Fiber Fridays, someone brings in a super big box of Fiber Ones from Sam's and they share their farts with everyone on the loud speaker.

How is your sodium intake? I never tracked this as my blood pressure is good, but now I do b/c if I go over I put on weight, it might be water weight but still, it sucks. I also have PCOS and not to make excuses, but it seems I have to try twice as hard to lose a pound as my friends that don't have it. I try to stay away…

I do and my husband (who is three years younger) was a freshman when I was a senior in high school. When we started dating years later he told me he thought I was intimidating back then and wouldn't dare talk to me. Now he is intimidating looking himself- he gets asked what club (biker gang) he is in all the time and was…

I love chickpeas in any form- my husband says they taste like dirt. Sabra is super smooth and I'd love to know how they get it that way. I have to confess I hate goat cheese- it tastes funky to me, my husband likes it of course!

I'd start with some buffalo wings with blue cheese dressing and fried pickles, then a rib eye with a baked potato with lots of butter and sour cream. For dessert I would have tiramisu cheesecake or a piece of triple chocolate cake and coffee with extra cream. I would be drinking some good southern sweet tea throughout the…

I keep mine open altough in most other things in life I am pretty private. I don't care if people know what I eat. I like to look at my friends' diaries for ideas too. When I first started this I had one friend send a message about she was dropping anybody who didn't have open diaries and I saw where mine was closed (maybe…

I recently rendered lard and got cracklings from it and my step mom was like "YOU HAVE TO BRING ME SOME CRACKLINGS FOR SOME CORNBREAD!"- I have never had it before. I will ask her to make me some as apparently it is really good.
-
awesome!

Wow- that's a long plateau, kudos for you for not totally giving up. If you feel like you need a different doctor, get on it- l aways try to follow my gut instinct and your gut might be telling you something. A friend recommended me her doctor and is was one of the best decisions of my life. Sometimes you got to shop…

It's probably the coffee itself doing that- my normal dose of coffee is 16 oz- sometimes when I have two mugs instead of one the same happens to me. I am talking "normal" coffee here, not the buttered kind- I haven't had any problems with that- just drinking 16 oz of that.

I had to try this myself and am one morning 3- in the past two days I haven't been hungry until lunch time and I usually eat a midmorning snack. I have also lost around 4 pounds- don't know if it's a fluke or not but I am feeling pretty good wearing what was once my tight jeans comfortably now. I use 2 tablespoons organic…

I have a lot to lose, but that means I have time to save for a beach vacation in Hawaii. I'll have to get a new tattoo once I'm there of course! Near of the end- my husband once got one in Key West and couldn't get in the water- he never did anyway but I like to actually get in the water on a beach vacation.

I do something similar with just garlic salt and butter and grill it, never thought about putting it in the oven. It is yummy! I will try it with the olive oil and bacon bits. Bacon makes everything better!
-
It looks like you've lost more than 25 lbs! Great job!

I was diagnosed years ago by a nurse practitioner, my OB-GYN (who I dumped over something totally unrelated) never once mentioned it. She sent me to a specialist and she was a wonderful Indian woman who would always look over my face for the HAIRS- mine are light though and I keep them plucked. She moved to Missouri, but…
