Great job!!

Great job!!

Kimchi is pretty gross tasting! ;)

Great start, stay with it!

Throw in a measure of laziness and I think you've got it. ;)

Add 8oz. of lentils to 5 cups of chicken stock (or water) and bring to a boil, let boil for a minute or two and then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 40 minutes in a COVERED pot. Perfectly cooked every time. ;)

Thanks I just went over my calorie limit for the day. Just looking at the above posts has to be at least 4000 cals!! ;)

Great job, hard to believe it's the same person!! ;)

Good coffee ice cream....yum!

Their breads are excellent, but they are overpriced.

Invest in a food scale, they're inexpensive. Eyeballing and guesstimating can be WAY off!

Peanut butter on buttered whole wheat toast, but straight from the jar with a spoon works too. I no longer keep it in the house....it's powers are too strong for my willpower ;)

Quitting smoking is not easy! I smoked heavily for many years and attempted to quit many times. Tried the patches, gum, hypnosis and group therapy (gum and the patches several times each.) What finally worked for me was Chantix, I've been smoke free for over four years now. It does require a doctor's prescription and it's…

Strip steak for me too. Filet while being ultra tender, tends to be mushy textured and lacking in real beef flavor.

Sounds delish, especially the lobster.

Same problem here and it continues.

Great job!!

Sadly there are many, many errors in the database. Always double and triple check the nutritional info before you log it in your daily food diary.

It bugs me too, rather than turn around, I go right up to them and say "excuse me" in a polite but firm voice ;)

Great job!

I agree pork loin is a great alternative to chicken breasts. Also if you belong to one of the warehouse clubs like Sam's or Costco, buying a whole boneless pork loin and cutting it up yourself is another way to save money.

Cups are great for liquid measure, but inaccurate for most dry goods. The density varies so greatly in many products. A cup of flour will increase in weight on a humid day and decrease on a dry day. Commercial bakeries always use the weight of dry ingredients when preparing a mixture.

It has been a while since I ate at McDonald's, but I think none of their products have a barcode assigned to them.[/quote] I'm not a fan of McDonalds myself, but they do offer a very comprehensive nutrient/calorie listing of every item on their menu.

Leftovers from the previous day's dinner make a great breakfast. While not traditional breakfast food, it's usually quick and easy to prepare.

It's working for me so far.

Peanut butter cups or just plain PB in a jar is my Kryptonite, if it's not in the house I don't have a craving for it, but if any is nearby, it calls my name and I can't resist. ;)

Great job!
