Am wondering what variations you can make from this? Maybe use almond butter instead?

Thanks for sharing!

You look amazing! I have been off MFP for the past couple months and and have regained 10 lbs. for ignoring what I was eating and slacking on exercise...it is people like you that keep me coming back and further inspiring me! Keep up the good work!

Omg....your story and transformation brought tears to my eyes! Hearty congratulations!!!

If I knew how to share a pic on here (or had the motivation to learn how!) you would see a whole lot of beer in my fridge--Budweiser and Guiness mostly. Got tossed into my empty cooler over the Memorial day weekend by someone else at the camping trip--it's not mine, I SWEAR!!! :noway:

Glad to hear that it went well! What does he say about those of us with nearly flat feet? Always thought I needed the support!?

I took a lot of people's advice here and went to a running store and tried on about 5 or 6 pairs before I went with Brooks. Btw, I had NO clue that when buying running shoes,I should buy up to a size larger than what I would be wearing in a dress shoe...I was overwhelmed with trying on half sizes, whole sizes and wider…

I've done whatever Ive could to tone down my Midwestern accent...growing up with my parents who would say things like "WaRsh" and other heavy-handed "R" words (my father would say things like "tarlet" for "toilet"...not sure where that came from!) but I think living in St. Louis, there is a good combination of Southern…

Miraculously I have not had any problem with either the chocolate brownies nor the chocolate chip granola bars. I am so sorry to hear that they're not agreeing with you. My digestive system can be pretty temperamental and adding fiber to it certainly helps me. Hope your situation works out!

I have SO MUCH fun making up my own exercises that are at least entertaining for my MFPals to actually read: "Yardwork; moderate amount of weeding, trimming and saving worms from uncertain death." "Waking, 3.5 moderate pace while jamming to my tunes and singing along." LET'S GET CREATIVE OUT THERE!!! :wink:

Angels on Bare Faces is the wtuff for keeping my temperamental skin in check...love the Ocean Salt, too!

RE: Gene Kelly Singin' in the Rain

Good point. In those rare emergencies, I have a colleague next door who can keep an eye on my kids. Otherwise, the last thing a teacher wants to deal with is legal issues because someone made a bad choice in his/her absence!!

I've been lucky enough that my plan time and my lunch allows me to get to the restroom when I need to go (I am lucky enough that my body gets into a routine pretty quickly!) Regarding the food, I try pretty hard to take everything in moderation....the 20 lbs. Ive lost so far is a good incentive for me to have a little more…

I look at your situation and am reminded of the guy who sat next to me at the Barry Manilow concert last month (yeah, I like his music. Never saw him perform before. Am comfortable in my masculinity saying that...) and looked completely miserable sitting next to his wife/girlfriend/whatever. I strongly believe she was…

Said I will live to be 86, which isnt too shabby, given that my parents died relatively young (Mom was 71 and Dad was 62). Was wondering why they did not take into account family longevity...my maternal grandmother was almost 101 when she died...would expect that to have some kind of bearing on my average.

The after-effect that makes me sleep really well at night (and if I may be so bold, the part that affects the boost of testosterone! ;-). The endorphin rush really does it for me, though...there are times when the right song is on and I am just GOING and I swear that I am somewhere else entirely and for that moment, all is…

Veggie Delite 12 inch Honey wheat provolone cheese All veggies (no peppers or pepperocinis) Extra tomatoes salt and pepper slightest amount of lite mayo Not toasted Okay...now I am hungry!

I love to bake, but also like the healthy stuff, too....might have to give these a go (sans the coconut) this weekend! Thanks for posting!

Do any of you know my friend Roy? He lives in Leeds as well! Traveled to see him in 2010...we went to York because he said there wasnt much to do/see in Leeds! Lovely country, just the same! Cheers! Marty

Thanks! had to look him up...it really made me smile. And the funny thing is that I am of German/Danish ancestry...have been asked on occasion if I was Latino!
