LOL, Mag - hope nothing caught fire!

Beef jerky! The real stuff, though, not like SlimJims - real beef jerky is low in fat and calories and has tons of protein.

TVP is soy protein, in crumbles. I use Bob's Red Mill brand - a 10oz bag is 3-4 bucks. One bag lasts foreeeeeeever if I just use it for these. I get about 7 batches (70 burgers) out of one bag of TVP. :) I just crunched numbers on how much this recipe costs, for anyone interested - 60 cents -TVP per recipe (at 4 bucks a…

Fixed, thanks! And wow, great job on your amazing weight loss!

I actually use dry cream of wheat in a bean burger recipe that is OUTSTANDING! I'll go post it, in case anyone's interested.

Tomatoes, avocado, cottage cheese and Tajín seasoning!

DO THIS! It's two whole tomatoes, 1/2 an avacado, 1/2 cup cottage cheese and a LOT of Tajín seasoning. So freaking good. I eat it a lot in summer.

One of my first celebrity crushes was on young Jeff Goldblum.

I second the yogurt mixed with sf pudding mix - did that tonight. 1/2 cup plain yogurt (not greek, I use regular) 1/4 packet sf white chocolate pudding (just the mix, not prepared) Added 1/2 cup unsweetened apple sauce and a dash of cinnamon on top, parfait style - super yum.

I will! And if you're an 80's guy, you must read "Ready Player One" - you'll like it.

I sure am - raised in the deep south, and though I don't wrangle horses anymore, I'm still quite country at heart.

LOL! Thank you. Your weight loss and upbeat attitude are truly inspiring.

Oh em gee, Paul Feig. Freaks and Geeks. <3 Not a movie, but still...

Can rock the red lipstick!

You have very kind eyes.

Except, (call me crazy) in the original script, Clarence dies. I would have liked it better that way.

I honestly think that Moonrise Kingdom is my fave Wes Anderson. I also love Paris Je T'aime, Bullets Over Broadway (most Woody Allen, actually) and Whit Stillman movies.

Hahahahahaha! I really want ramen and eggs scrambled in a 1/2 stick of butter right now - but I won't do it!

Very pretty smile :)

Uh, and The Fisher King - also a great movie.

I love yoga pants, but I don't do yoga.

I prefer being barefoot to wearing shoes. Like, at all.

Moonstruck Oh Brother, Where Art Thou? Kung Fu Hustle True Romance and yes to - Bladerunner - hottest kiss scene in movie history. Princess Bride - amazing.

FR, awesome hair!

Borrowed, returned - sad! and, for you - You go, girl.

Love those shades!

Nah, I just have a photographer friend. :) Poster above - owns a tanning salon?

Nada - what a great picture, so inspiring!

I say (based on the facial expression) - Professional turner-down-of-lame-dudes-in-bars. Says "no, you can't buy me a drink" like a BOSS.

Nothing - great smile, you look happy and confident!
