I third the Yuengling Light! :drinker: Especially if you aren't a fan of the Miller/Bud/Coors Light watery beers.

Black bean spaghetti. (http://www26.netrition.com/explore_asian_organic_black_bean_spaghetti.html) 2oz = 180 cals, 29g carbs (12g fiber), 25g protein. I freakin love the stuff.

Yeah.... I mean I'm morbidly obese at this very moment from eating healthy fats and animal proteins. And those 40lbs I lost 3 years ago were all in my head. :noway: :huh:

I didn't read through the 20 prior pages, but I'm assuming that everyone's said you're kick a$s. Hopefully those 20 pages have told you that your family is full of it and that you've done very well for yourself. Keep up the awesome work!!! :drinker:

Hell, even if they're working for free, give them the boot. You have the right mindset, don't let someone talk you out of that.

I was reasonably hungry until I mosied in here and saw all of the pics. :sick:

Probably would help if the pus was dressed as a berry.... ya know, because fruit.

SHE'S A NICE LADY!!! :sad:

That's just straight Chicha. The one I had was a non-alcoholic soda version. THE WORST. [And, while we were there, we were told over and over again that they don't have the old woman chew it up and spit it out anymore, apparently they have machines that do that now?.....I still didn't try the Chicha at any bars. Pisco…

I was in Lima, Peru and ordered a Diet Coke at a Chinese place we were getting lunch at (I know, Chinese food in Peru, weird.) but I ended up getting this thick purple stuff they drink there called Chicha Morada- it's made from fermented corn. I didn't realize it until I took a big swig through the straw and almost puked…

:love: :smooched: :love: How long til Christmas.....?

Speaking as someone who works in marketing for a very large company, advertisers can say whatever they want to make certain demographics believe that their product fits into their lifestyle. There are people who literally get paid to twist words to make them sound appealing no matter what. At my job, we sit around a table…

I've been wanting to try them with chocolate chips! Glad they came out good :smile:

That's why I tried it before I posted it. I really do think it's awesome. If you go into it knowing that it's obviously not going to taste *exactly* like regular banana bread then you'll be fine. It comes out more dense in texture because of the eggs, but I love it. ETA: I'm not sure how your protein will work with it...…

Yes... It is Optimum Nutrition brand flavored protein. My favorite!

Thanks! :drinker:

Anyone have any idea how this would work with quick oats...?

Left-over banana cream pie here! :drinker:

Sorry for your loss- I'm sure those were both pretty tough. I'm going through a rough patch myself right now- I recently found out that I have a cancerous polyp in my colon that can't be removed without major re-sectioning surgery- and I'm only 25. I also just found out that my car needs a new transmission (that I can't…

I'm finishing up Insanity this week. Don't worry about the first Fit Test, mine sucked. You'll be amazed how you progress using those Fit Tests as a tracking log. I'm a push-up champ now after hardly being able to do 5 push-up jacks the first day. Just go as hard as you can, but make sure you rest when you need it,…

I'm in my last week of Insanity- I LOVE it. I've been lifting for a few years and I've never been a fan of cardio, so I thought I'd try Insanity to avoid the treadmill. I've never been a huge at-home DVD workout person, but Insanity is definitely something that will stay in my rotation from now on. I'm going to be starting…

Spontaneous combustion. No one wants that.

Absolute favorites are cookies 'n' cream & white chocolate raspberry. Cookie dough is also awesome. Banana nut muffin & chocolate brownie are AMAZING topped with PB2- they're just "meh" on their own.

If you aren't weirded out about ordering food online (some people are. I love ordering stuff online, so much more variety) you can look into Black Bean Spaghetti, Mung Bean Fettuccine and Skinni Spaghetti as pasta "replacements". They all still have carbs (less than regular pasta), but way more fiber and they also pack a…

I've been going to Anytime Fitness for 3 years. Over the course of those 3 years, I've used 5 different facilities. I've never encountered a gym with the smoothie problem OR employees ("lunk" or otherwise) who walked around commenting to people. I've only gotten a "Hi, how are you today?" from the employees at all…

OP asked if they work, the majority said they don't. She asked a question and got answers. Was that not the point of this thread?

Spend a few hours on the weekends making food for the upcoming week. There is entirely too much fast food/"easy" foods in your diet, many of them high in fats. Google some healthy recipes (try skinnytaste.com for starters) and cook two or three different ones on Saturday/Sunday, and you'll have a week full of…

- I'm going to the brewery in my old college town with some friends for dinner/drinks later :drinker: - Next week is my last week of Insanity and after that I get to start going back to the gym to lift! I miss it. :smooched: - I got a raise this week (2.5%...nothing to write home about, but hey.) :ohwell: - The weather is…

8:07. And I started at 8:00. :sick:

It truly amazes me the amount of people who do NOT know how to use the search function of these message boards... Please search for this very topic and you can drown yourself in results- most of which will tell you to save your time/money when it comes to shenanigans like this.
