Today 8-21-12: 10.0 incline on the treadmill to give myself a nice power walk on the legs and butt - great way to pump the heartrate up. Worked 150lbs on Hip adduction/abduction, back extension, leg press. 75lb shoulder press 3 sets of 25 ab crunches...

There is something sexy about a compound butter melting on top of a big fat juicy steak. Or, the silky goodness of bleu-cheese as it softens on a freshly grilled breast of chicken... Damnit thats sexy!

ROFLMAO - the sad part is, Im dead serious! LOL!!!!!

Ive always revered McDonalds and Burger King the Colon-cleanse for societal needs. When you were bound up and couldnt take a dump, all you had to do was eat one burger, one order of fries and a milkshake. GUARANTEED to clean your inner 'self' out within 6 hours... 8-P

Worked two trades up until my daughter moved out of the house last August 2011: Chef Advanced/Certified Medical Reimbursement Specialist. I love being a total witch to insurance companies and get paid to do it! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAA I keep up with my ServSafe Management certification by doing some side work on my own or…

I still wear my checks!!!!! I am rather fond of my Berry chef pants!!!! LOL!!! I worked two industries for almost 16 years in case one fell through and had a backup with the other. I miss the chaos of a busy kitchen... so I make up for it at home! LOL! Ive got some seasoning rubs that are KILLER on some lamb or pork…

NOW we're talkin' dirty!!!!!!!!!!! :tongue:

Everything with bacon in it IS good! LOL!

The darkest purple should be monitored by a physician/treating specialist to make sure it is ok to maintain that. Those types of patients require more review. That is good common sense. I work in healthcare for a living and have seen patients go through serious medical problems as a result of not consulting with their…

Broccoli salad w/roasted red peppers, red onion, artichoke hearts, fresh chopped hickory bacon, chopped walnuts, yellow pepper strips and a homemade buttermilk Ranch-style dressing. Baby spinach, strawberries, chopped almonds, yellow and orange pepper strips, thinly sliced bermuda onion (very spicy), white mushrooms, fresh…

This is rather ironic - Im working on medical claims right now for our Endocrinology Dept and have to report these readings on the claim... ****whoodathunk

Ketosis and ketoacidosis are two entirely separate issues - here's the medical definition of both: ketosis /ke·to·sis/ (ke-to´sis) accumulation of excessive amounts of ketone bodies in body tissues and fluids, occurring when fatty acids are incompletely metabolized.ketot´ic ketoacidosis /ke·to·ac·i·do·sis/…

****raises her Patron Margarita in agreement 8-)

Around here, the old school "drowning yourself in food" is a common thought for the depression. Because we cant cope, we turn to food, blah blah blah..... Its alot of hocum

Ketogenic has been around since the 1920's... Treatment of epilepsy with low carb intakes has been an ongoing effort. There's also some studies going on right now with lower carb intakes and autism patients as well. Diabetics have been directed by their physicians to do a lower carb intake for decades....and the mere…

Doesnt have to be popular around anywhere.... Get like Nike and just "Do It" By the way, if the southern folks of Alabama can handle the heat from chili peppers, you can handle the heat of most Indian dishes - in fact it will be a walk in the park! 8-)

If you burn past your BMR, then yes you can eat those back to stabilize. If you dont go below your bmr (meaning BMR being your net), then you dont need to.

Well.. there might be others like yourself who only eat a slim list, but I will tell you though: we have many who eat a large variety... but they are just as nice as well! Speaking for myself - Im an avid rabbit-food lover myself! LOL!

Head over to http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ Run the information through to get an accurate picture.

EXACTLY! Money is tight no matter whether or not you have a job or not. Ultimately its up to the individual to make adequate decisions. Right now, I have three gallons of homemade marinara sauce cooling in one-quart containers. It literally cost me about $5.00 to purchase everything and make that homemade marinara. Each…

And, they have a website with the complete list of foods that are categorized by low, medium and high glycemic indexes. A Dermatologist that I once worked for often advised patients that for every high GI food you have, you need two low GI's to counter balance it if you cant control your food choices right away.

Seems to me you are missing the glory of all that is Asian, Greek, Czech, Indian, Portuguese, Spanish, Singaporean, and so much more. Take a peek at www.recipesource.com ... think of a country, its more than likely there.

2516 (TDEE) - 15% (376 calories)=2140 2140 is your target daily intake. If you burn calories through exercise, make sure that if you burn well past your BMR, eat those calories back to bring you back up again.

Anything that comes from the bakery - basically in that category of foods, I get extremely sick. It caused significant cardiac problems for me and thanks to allergy testing, I got rid of them last year. For one year, this coming September, I will have completely eliminated any risk of heart attack or diabetes - and the…

Vim, I have resources linking to that very same subject so I got you covered! LOL!

This is definitely the place to get food porn, Ill tell you that much! 8-) Welcome to the group and enjoy your stay! I know we have a thread going for those that wish to share what they are having for dinner (or any meal really)... great ideas are found there. By chance, are you looking for anything in particular? Can you…

Honestly speaking Im a glutton for punishment, I do Advanced Medical billing for a living and I absolutely LOVE numbers. I can eyeball when the insurance companies charge the patient the wrong balance without using a calculator... lol!!!! So, the numbers-way of thinking comes home with me when I get my kitchen skills…

I had me a good 51g protein all natural breakfast this morning: eye-round steak tips, 3-eggs, freshly sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms, sprinkle of bleu cheese crumbles..... That will hold me for a good 4 hours!

Yup! I agree ! Taking a recipe for 6 and making it into 2 would mean a 66% change. Decrease it by 2/3rds... I love math!!!!

Well... you could look at this from two different ways: 1.) Cook a recipe as-is, and freeze the other portions for future meals (bulk cooking) or 2.) Consider using Google or Ask.com - they can help with breaking down measurements...
