  • Logically, this all makes perect sense but I'm generally on my own (no kids and husband works away) so it's all up to me... And if I go off track its really very ugly... Sometimes my self control is astounding - even to me! But when I'm on the downhill slide its definitely not pretty...
  • Same... I'm suffering the consequences of half a cheesecake, 1/2 pck of choc biscuits, sausage and spaghetti dinner, 1/2 bottle of wine and 2 chocolate bars at the moment (ate he other half of packs yesterday...) :(
  • I so relate... :)
  • Yep... Exactly the same! Good to know I'm not the only one :) And I'm definitely off the wagon... Today has been atrocious! I haven't logged since lunchtime because I've just kept eating to the point that I now feel absolutely revolting... This has been building over the last week but I'm hoping that I've outdone myself…
  • This... I love mine too. I've only had one day in the last 4mths that I haven't worn it and I was so frustrated at myself for leaving it in the charger! A very valuable tool although, as mentioned above, its not a replacement for a HRM. I think you need both.

  • You make a very good point and I apologise for 'highjacking' your thread - however, if you'd worded it as above initially rather than just telling us to '*** off' then it would have been much less offensive!
  • This whole post is surreal! ... And scary! It's generally unheard of to carry a gun in Australia unless your a Police Officer or a criminal!!
  • Yep... It can be significant part of my calorie intake sometimes! :tongue:
  • There is massive debate about this and I have no idea what the truth is... I think it all comes down to different things working for different people. However, at 5'1" and 56kg, I'm thinking your BMI may still be in the healthy range. Another thing to consider is that, at 23, maybe the kidney stone has just triggered a…

  • Lol Lelstar - your who I was thinking of when I just posted Bronwyn's address in my status update :happy:
  • Yep :) What do you want to hear from me? :laugh:
  • Its insanity that things like the solution above are obvious to us but not to the people in power... Its criminal actually...
  • Bahahaha! :) I don't sweeten it anyway... I love it just the way it is! :)
  • Yep... The standards... Pants falling down, wedding snd engagement rings are loose, fitting into the small clothes I could never wear and the fact that my knuckles are really pointy now whereas they used to be rounder! :)
  • Great story... And so very true! Now to remember it all when I'm looking in the mirror!
  • Hmmmm small boobs are one thing but deflated empty skin is another! I had a girlfriend refer to her post weight loss boobs as 'goat nipples' (ie: as you see 'hanging' under goats after they've been breast feeding their kids)... I think this term suits my post weigt loss breasts perfectly... They were much nicer before I…
  • Tehehehehehehe.... :laugh:
  • Lately I've been hooked on a 'Mexican Style' breakfast that we got from the Food Channel's 'Mexican Food Made Simple'... The presenter made a simple salsa of tinned tomatoes, onion, garlic, chilli, olive oil and a dash of Worstershire Sauce then she spread the salsa over a tortilla and topped it with a fried egg and grated…
  • Yey!! Its back on again thankfully! Ohhhh.... I have no idea how people deals with this happening frequently although I guess you learn to notrely on it so much. Thanks for the advice. I've checked the contents of fridge and both freezers and it all seems ok, albeit several things in the freezers are a little soft around…
  • Thanks Triquatra... I just check the company's website and there is a Claims process. I was momentarily excited as the site said our power should be reinstated on the hour but as that time elapsed, I checked again and now its saying 'unknown' again... I guess they found more damage :(
  • Taking the afternoon off from renovating... Just invited a group of friends over for drinks in about 4wks time (always hard to get time for all of us to get together) so now I'm running a mental checklist of all the things I have to do before they get here!!
  • I'm just curious as to why the OP refers to 'PBJ' - which I'm assuming is peanut better & jelly - as opposed to just PB... As an Australian, I've never understood the peanut butter & jelly (we call it jam) concept but I find it even more odd that some ppl can't seem to dis-associate the two! Lol... Just an observation…
  • I quit just over 2yrs ago and I haven't really had any problems with cravings after the first few weeks unless I'm mega stressed - that was always my key smoking trigger apart from the usually habitual practises. I found that the most satisfying things to 'replace' having a cigarette at those habitual times (with coffee,…
  • I agree with this... Essentially, I guess the water content could count towards you water goal but if there is any type of dehydrating effect from the caffine, wouldn't it be better to just drink an extra glass of water anyway? It won't hurt and the more the better really - within reason - I think excessive amounts of…
  • Just tried these and YUM!! I used chicken salt - and used too much - but they really worked and tasted great! I microwaved mine for about 3mins on high (1100w machine)
  • Just tried the microwave chips on this post... YUM! :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/578282-potato-chips-in-the-oven-magic-absolute-magic?hl=Chips+oven
  • I've been using himalayan salt crystals for ages now - they're supposed to be really packed with minerals as well. I LOVE my salt though... Always have. I was worried I was eating too much but on my last test results from the dctors (general halth checks and bloodwork) the doctor said all results showed me as having…
  • Awesome job!! I was so chuffed when I passed 20,000 in a day! Quite a feat!! :flowerforyou:
  • Please forgive me if I'm out of line here because I know I don't know you or your boyfriend or your situation but this strikes me as really weird - and makes me angry.... I actually can't think of a better reason for you NOT moving back to Austin and I would have expected your boyfriend to have the same sentiments!! There…
  • Has anyone else noticed how NEGATIVE this post is?? :tongue: It's strange I know but I'm actually finding it very frustrating! Yeah, sure - there are foods I dislike but I will try them again every now and then just in case my tastes have changed and it has happened... I never used to like olives, beans or any type of…
