Im here, but this group has never been very active. Too bad because there are a lot of us out there and im sure on here too!

I did it the other way around too when my cousin was in beauty school. I definitely had to go to work with some pink hair for a day LOL. I change my hair color, cut, length, whatever all the time too. Keeps it modern!

Scientists have actually been researching this pretty extensively in recent years and have found that the dopamine system gets all out of whack for some people from highly palatable foods, just like any other psychological addiction (sex, marijuana, gambling, etc.). I KNOW there are addictive patterns in my behavior.…

Hi all! Looking for new friends. Im 31, married, no kids but 5 big dogs keep me mighty busy. I have done MFP in the past and lost a lot of weight, but stopping tracking was a kiss of death for me. Now I am back on the wagon and dont intend to ever fall back off. I am a Seattle area veterinarian, and I love dog sports,…

Five Akitas! Juno, Aero, Giada, Mooney, and Eden. Show dogs (trust me, its a LOT more fun than it sounds!)

Hi everyone! Im a new grad (2012) from Illinois and I am currently working in privat epractice (some day, some ER) in the Seattle area. I lost a lot of weight in the early years of vet school, but 4th year rotations and the challenges of moving cross country have wreaked havoc on my eating habits. Im back on the wagon…

I know this post has been a while but I make one every morning. Big handful of spinach half a cup fruit of the day (blueberries, strawberries, cherries, pineapple, etc) half a cup of whatever juice seems to complement the fruit half a cup of greek yogurt tbsp raw local honey a couple handfuls of ice Mine are not the…

I just kinda wing it. I do about a cup or so of spinach, half a cup of plain non fat greek yogurt, half a cup of whatever fruit I have, half a cup of whatever juice seems to compliment that fruit, a tablespoon of honey, and ice. With cherries because they are pretty tart, I would probably choose apple juice. Somewhere…

When mine are ripe, I am going to throw them in my morning green monster. Also cherry sauces go great with fish, pork, and turkey. Of course there's cherry desserts, but that kinda defeats the purpose of eating fruit IMO. Whole grain cherry breads and pancakes would probably be pretty good too.

I only eat more if its before 8PM. If its once a week or so, no big deal. If its more than that, a more nutritious breakfast or lunch may be inn order. Also, I try to eat something with something other than just straight carbs: cheese, yogurt, almonds, apples with peanut butter, hummus & veggies, etc.

Im thinking that 1/2g per lb is per lean lb or at least adjusted for healthy weight correct? As in if you are 50 lbs overweight, you probably dont need an additional 25g protein than you would if you were lean? Just curious as most medications are dosed based on lean weight, it would make sense to me.
