I like to layer cottage cheese, salsa and sliced almonds on top of a scrambled egg.... I get some weird looks when I make it at work. But from the looks of this thread, maybe I should start consuming dead baby ducks to REALLY get some looks in the lunch room :happy:

I understand what you're going through... I have to get a foot of my colon removed because of a malignant polyp they found that is growing abnormally fast. The surgery I'm going through is pretty major- I'm going to miss at least a month of work. I can't do any physical activity for at least 2 months (because of the whole…

Squirrel Spaghetti.....NOM.

I :heart: this post so hard. :drinker:

Same with a$sholes. :laugh:

...reason being?

I can bet most of my possessions that he didn't gain the weight back because of not going to the gym twice a day. There's this sneaky little thing called "diet" that leads the majority of people to gain weight back.

I :heart: Quest bars, and I recently just purchased 3 boxes of Oh Yeah! Chocolate Chip Cooke Dough. I'd have to say that Quest are superior to Oh Yeah! taste & texture wise- I'm a fan of the Quest bars that have the chunks of stuff, cookies n cream:bigsmile: NOM... The only reason I purchased the Oh Yeah!'s is because I…

Dear Lord, just eat the shrimp! :yawn:

Salmon & almonds. Hardly ever ate either. Now I eat both up to 4 times a week :heart:

Word of advice- if you haven't been working out prior to starting Insanity, you'll want to do yourself a favor and do at least a couple weeks worth of exercise beforehand. Running, body weight squats/lunges and push ups will help you get into shape. I had been a regular at my gym (lifting/running 4-5 days a week) for…

In that case, you can not carry one with you. In the event of an emergency, trust the goodwill of absolute strangers. Anywho... I have an iPhone and I found a case with a built-in clip on the back. I clip it on the back of my pants/shorts. It's not the annoying huge plastic belt clip kind, it's very slim and sturdy. I've…

I have a co-worker who also flies off the handle and loses his *kitten* a lot... He listens to death metal and has swords in his cubicle. I feel like I should have a meander through his public records....

That's what I was thinking.... Also, dairy.

I graduated high school in 2007 and we were required to take a milk before the wonderful lunch ladies would let us even leave the line. Most of it ended up in the trash while everyone went back up and bought an iced tea or something else.

This entire thread reaffirms my decision my senior year of college to ditch teaching and become a graphic designer :drinker:

It'd be nice if things were in my world as simple as they are in yours....and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

^^^This. I usually get to the gym around 5am. It's the only time I can fit it into my day. When I first started working out, I went after work- usually had a 250~ish calorie protein/carb snack after lunch at 3:15 and got to the gym at 5:30. Now I train on an empty stomach in the mornings- I usually don't eat after 8:30pm…

Being a fellow (ex) art major myself (graduated in 2011) I think it's awesome that you're so dedicated while in college. I found the gym my senior year and haven't stopped since. Everyone thought it was so weird that an art major was obsessed with lifting because of the stupid stereotypes- we should be smoking weed and…

OMGGGGG :love:

I bought & completed Insanity as a (mental) break from my normal routine (lifting 6 days/week, little cardio). It's a solid program and it's cool to see how you progress through the fit tests. My 5K time also kicks more a$s after a round of Insanity. BUT. All of the supplements and other junk they push so hard is utter…
-
Also watch what you eat before bed... High amounts of protein (or a large meal) before bed can make it harder to fall asleep. Something about your body working to digest it keeping you awake....I've seen it a in a few articles about sleep problems/disorders. I have the opposite problem, I have trouble sleeping on my rest…
-
Fats are also calorie dense... Does that mean that almonds are bad? Protein is calorie dense..... Chicken breast anyone? Odds are- you're working out and your body is using that carby pasta goodness for energy to fuel your kick as$ness. It's about moderation and making things fit into your day. I still eat pizza/fries and…

:laugh: Same. I tried working out with one of my friends before... Switched my lifting time from before work to after (I hate the gym after work. Apparently it's social hour). She stood around and talked to everyone at the gym instead of doing sets. Drove me insane......so that's never going to happen again. I've been…

Foul. Hair in my food.

$165 for one shirt and a pair of pants makes me want to vomit. Go to Old Navy, JCP, Target and TJ Maxx.

That's pretty limiting... But you could try low-sodium canned soups (you don't *have* to heat them up), a veggie salad (he could add tuna or canned white chicken?), peanut/almond butter & bananas/celery/carrots, beef jerky, granola... It's not really a structured lunch menu, but he could put a few different things together…
