  • I'm so jealous!! All my Road House restaurants in South Florida closed:explode: :mad:
  • Sounds good for the holiday! I can use some mangos that are killin me:laugh: any suggestion on the wine? I don't drink wine much so I have little exp w/brands
  • I got this off chef2chef Title: Low Fat Greek Salad Dressing (1 Point) Yield: 16 Servings Ingredients 4 Tbsp fresh lemon juice 4 Tbsp red wine vinegar 1 ts dried oregano 1 ts salt 1/4 ts black pepper 1/4 ts garlic powder 1/4 c extra-virgin olive oil 1/4 c vegetable broth Instructions Blend together all the ingredients…
  • I do much the same but I replace breadcrumbs with quaker oats, add red pepper and chopped mushrooms.
  • Good to know! I lost my thread there for a few days!:tongue:
  • yep you got it kitn. When I first started here, I got stuck on 5 and 7 lbs. The bf and I went to Chilis and instead of eating off the guiltless menu, I ordered chicken and steak fajitas, I only used one of the tortillas and no cheese or sour cream - then just at the meats and veggies.............this turned out to be about…
  • When my girlfriend goes to a bar, she buys a bottle of water, takes her crystal light orange packet and also buys a shot of vodka..............I thought it was a fab idea. I typically just get bacardi and diet or bud light. I did mix some left over vodka from bloodymarys with Crystal Light Green Tea Raspberry and it was…
  • it is water storage in the muscles................my bf had alot of success with it but certainly not to overuse as you can look puffy. There is some good info on Muscle & Fitness about the newer versions they have which have more balance than the older styles.
  • Yeah, sounds like you got a crown on that broken tooth, I would suggest not eating on that side today but otherwise you should be okay. The dentist would've advised certain restrictions if you were to eat aything special. I will say no starburst, gum or crunchy stuff like georg mentioned. I got my braces in my late 20's,…
  • What procedure did you have done?
  • Actually Jacque it was nice to realize the world isn't sitting on my shoulders. Was feeling a little down in the dumps today...............it has rained all week, my pool cover blew off and ripped down the middle (now it's raining in the pool :grumble: ) and our new patio furniture blew over and messed up the umbrella on…
  • Hey Jacque! You didn't bore me, I love me a homemade taco too!!!! BF usually takes one shell, and makes a salad out of the rest of the fixings. You've earned a good taco enjoy it the way you want - remember calorie zig zagging really does work.
  • The transmitter shown at the bottom is the chest strap.....so you use both components. This is not the watch only ones that some folks don't like. You should be good with this, I have an F1 - doesn't count calories so I have to plug my numbers into an equation but it helps me stay in target range and work harder.

  • Does the Crystal Light Natural Green Tea have the same qualities as the hot tea? I live in South Florida and hot tea is not appealing to me and all we drink in the house is crystal light. thoughts?

  • 8:00???? Is that normal? I think ours are open until like midnight
  • Purrr!!!!!! So happy to see that smilin cat again!!!!! I missed you, I fell off the wagon so I certainly was a contributor to your feelings, I have picked myself up and got back to the gym, plus posting here everyday - sometimes more than once, hope to see you around you were so good for my self esteem.
  • I am up two lbs this week, I am about stuck......................I'm back to the gym so perhaps next week.:grumble:
  • When I make the grilled or baked veggies (my bf swears he does not eat zucchini or squash - they are certainly lemons and limes - plus asparagus are green beans - lol....) we get full sooo fast, even with the 4 oz of meat I have previously weighed prior to freezing - with the veggies he feels so full and thinks I have…
  • It must've been in the cards today/tonight - certainly your experience sounds reminisent to what I experienced except I am usually the one not being *****ed at - with that said, sorry for your lack of dinner and guess we all (bf's, hubby's and all) fall of said wagon and act like fools!
  • Girl, thanks for the commiseration/confirmation. It's quite out of character for me, I'm thinking I am worried about being up on my weight as I have slipped some even though I got back to the gym. With that said, he's been my bf for more than 13 years so I certainly know he's not likely to finish a project when started, I…
  • Okay, had a great test drive on my shoes today. Like I said, I primarily like the stationary upright bike or treadmill as I haven't built up more more endurance yet - BUT, aside from tying one shoe too tight (that was dang annorying) all was well and the little tootsies were fine afterward. Yayy! Obviously the real test…
  • Fingers crossed for ya!!! My shoes worked out good today, although I did have one tied too tight and that was a bit annoying until I could change it. I think you are right about the concrete........................
  • Losinit - you definitely started a funny thread that I'm glad I am not the only one who can relate to. Yep, I fell victim to the Alli - well actually I took it when it was Xenical and prescription - so each pill was 120 mg as opposed to Alli's 60 mg (I think) and we were in Jamaica, eating buffet - my boyfriend will never…
  • Okay - CONFESSION - after I got all motivated being on here a long time lastnight, since I didn't get to the gym this morning, I was really dragging my heels getting there at all. BF got up to start getting ready this evening, I got really pissy with him - to the tune of "why can't you ever finish any projects you start…
  • I had a cookies and cream sandwich lastnight

  • My only pressure is making sure I get the "surprise" effect:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
  • One banana today. The 200 squat thing looks cool!
  • I had 1/2 advocado lastnight, that is a fruit, right?
  • Calie - I do the same with checking in here, keeps me more focused!
