I understand the concept, but the way people say it really sounds like they beleive that a pound of muscle is going to show up as more weight.

You are correct on the pint thing, although it really isn't.

Yes and sometimes even more than once a day. Seems to keep me thinking of where I am going and where I want to be.

I have not heard of it. Since I don't eat meat, I never pay much attention to different diets though. They almost always have menus that I could never do.

You will be just fine, I go to them often with my husband and step son. I make myself go for the salad section first. Fruit and fresh salad veggies, and I try to use squeezes of lemon juice for my salad. Or many times they have vinegar on the salad bar. I have a tendency to take a small bottle of balsamic to restaurants…

I got a polar as per what I saw people on here talk about the most. I got a polar ft7 because it was on sale for the same price as the polar ft4. They are about the same, one is a newer model. You will want one with a chest strap as the ones without one will not be any more acurate than the info you get off the data base.…

There is a chinese dish with caulifower that is so good. It uses pork and I dont eat meat, but have had the vegetarian version. Cauliflower chow yok. It has a fermented black bean gravy and green onions with a scrambled egg worked into the sauce. Might have to google the recipe as I know I could stir it up from scratch but…

Thats good to know because if you were 99, then I think you should be advising us on what to eat.

You think twins could be born 30 years apart? lol Maybe mother/daughter.

I live in West Texas and they were at a health food store. I also have seen a few of them at Albertsons before. I found their web site after someone mentioned the correct name. Walden farms zero calorie foods

I didn't buy any because to me it just seemed too weird. It is walden farms, after you said that I googled it and that is what it is. They actually looked good, but it says they have been around since 72, so I am thinking it must not be that good or it would of been popular enough that everyone would of heard of it by now

The label said zero calories

I was thinking the same thing.

These are not just fat free.................. they are calorie free.

Fat free still does not mean calorie free. I am sure even the fat free dressing had at least 25 calories a tbls if not more. This stuff was calorie free.

Even if you did eat 3500 extra calories extra one day, it still would not have time to turn into an actual pound of fat overnight.

Dont cook the lettuce though........... just put it in a bowl and add the noodles at the end.

I was married to a Chinese Chef and he used to use shredded lettuce in his ramen noodles in place of bean sprouts at times. Also a small amount of sesame oil drizzled in the bowl at the end give it that wok flavor. Great with hot oil too. We used to break a few pieces of aspargus in them. Or add a broken egg in the stock…

I think I might be older and fatter both than most on this thread. HW 329 CW 300 goal 180 or less when I get there 5' 7" 55 years old Have 2 grown daughters and 3 grand kids A whole house full of dogs And I am a vegetarian

Wow you look petite, tiny and cute!

I have seen people doing this on tv. It is crazy how much useable food is wasted. I was a manager in a major chain grocery store for years and it was very sad to see all the waste. The store I worked for did not allow things that were still good but expired to be sold, or given away.

I even use green beans in place of pasta. The french green beans are the best for the sauce.

I met my husband in a chat room 14 years ago. I wont go into all of the specifics here, but we lived over 1500 miles apart. We talked online and the phone for a year before we met. We continued taking 2 week vacations together twice a year for 7 years. After the kids were all grown and graduated from high school, he moved…

I can imagine at that weight you would look very thin to me. A small clothing size, and on the tall and skinny side. I also can't imagine I am the weight I am. I am 300 lbs. and while I know I am big, when I see a picture or catch a glance in a reflection from a store glass, I am discusted and mortified. I seem to swere…

Wow thanks to everyone for snapping that feeling right out of me. I really feel so much better after all of the encouragement, thats just crazy. Thats amazing there are such great people to come to my aid in a time when I need it. Just love it, thanks so much :-) Going to get out doggie treats and spend some time making my…

Love your dogs, they are just adorable!

Cute doggie!

Thanks, I have a bunch of dogs. If I took them all for a walk, there wouldn't even be time to eat anything. lol

Thanks Claire, I think I am feeling better, just reading all these posts from everyone.
