bump thanks!

bump Thanks!

Oh, honey, let yourself grieve! You are on a long journey, not a short race. There are sure to be obstacles along the way, and you have done great so far. My heart goes out to you in your pain- be kind to yourself. Only time will help.

WAY TO GO!

Thank you! Can't wait to try them!

Sounds great, thanks!

Raw spinach, of all things :-)

1. Sniff the air and see if the coffee has brewed 2. Go to the kitchen and pour the coffee 3. Drink the coffee ;-)

I'm on the 1200-calorie per day also and ADDICTED to coffee. I use 1 TBS honey and 1/2 cup nonfat milk in my coffee :-) Sometimes I have two cups per day.

Oh my god, you're incredible! Thank you for sharing! :-)

Thank you!

Thank you!

I have taken Celexa for 2-3 years. The only thing that has affected my weight is exercising and calories! Good luck! I weighed about 20 pounds more when I started on the drug :-)

It's been over 100 degrees every day for over a week in Oklahoma. I'm staying inside.

I agree with the trail mix idea- I like raisins, chocolate chips, nuts, and marshmallows!

Depends on the day and time, but usually not, unless it's a little concealer. I look like hell at the gym :-)

These are SO funny! My now ex-husband and I were having an argument about what time we should leave for dinner that night. I was so mad I hopped in the car and put it in reverse. He happened to have his foot in the way and I ran over his foot with the tire and then DROVE AWAY. We laughed about that for a long time…

Arkansas moonshine.

This is MY FAVORITE dessert lately! I either add: 1 TBS of peanut butter, or a spoonful of cocoa powder. I also add a little sweetener (stevia). I'd rather have this than "real" ice cream anytime! Try it!

Whoa! Thanks for the tip!

I've ordered steamed chicken with mixed veggies and steamed rice. Only eat about 1/4 to 1/3 of the dish. It's not the most appealing looking plate, but it tastes good with some soy sauce. I ordered this last Friday night at the local take out place and made 3 meals out of it. Good luck!

This happened to me in February and my knee has not been the same since, although it is much, much better! I did go see a physical therapist who gave me exercises which I did on my own and am still doing. One thing that really helped was to stand up or lie down and contract the thigh muscle above my hurt knee- hold the…

Bananas! Don't worry about the natural sugar in them.

Take a slow walk, pull weeds, clean a room or two in the house... :-)

Congratulations on your journey AND being alcohol-free! I am a drinker and here's what I think: your friend is slightly jealous and feels judged for her drinking (even though you're not judging her- your non-drinking status is threatening to her status). I would definitely confront her nicely about how her words and…

WOW! You look so much younger! Awesome job!

Buy the strongest toothpaste and mouthwash you can find and brush your teeth, then gargle with the mouthwash. NOTHING tastes good after that!

PS, I know everyone is different, but the two times I attempted incorporating Splenda into my diet (this was about 3 years apart, too), I experienced really weird heart or chest muscle pain that I'd never had before nor have had since. Just FYI. I'm really scared of it.

I have used it for years. In addition, my mom used to grow stevia and we would just eat the leaves like candy! Put it in coffee, tea, smoothies. I also stir it into plain, nonfat yogurt for a sweetener. The one thing I don't like it in is coffee, I just can't do it- but I no longer like hot or cold tea with anything except…
