Protein shake and a piece of fruit.

Sorry I am so slow. Here is one I love. Red Lentil Burgers Serves 8 Ingredients 1 pound (1 1/2 cups) red lentils 5 cups water, salted 1 cup minced onion (1 medium) 1/2 cup minced carrot (1 large) 2 teaspoons minced garlic (2 cloves) Olive oil for the skillet 2 cups chopped crimini mushrooms 1 tablespoon chopped fresh…

I have tons and tons of recipes. Is there anything in particular you are looking for?

I have been doing something similar. I work out 2 hours a day at least 3 or 4 days a week and then the other days I do 1 hour. It works for me. My trainer says if my body feels tired to take a break from it. He also says if I feel hungry to eat more. I think it is a very individual decision. And wow...elliptical at level…

Oh come on live a little...lol.

Better add that to my bucket list.

Oh I hope that didn't sound mean.

Due to Directv issues I missed last nights episode. I couldn't be more upset. The old me would go eat a bowl of cereal. :)

Don't you hate the whole BMI thing? Beanpole is not a good thing. :)

Replace the cream with vegetable stock and silken tofu.

Hmmm, I would give myself a day of two off of exercise and really rest up but keep up on the nutrition.

I am just looking for my like button on ALL of your comments. :laugh:

I would start with a gentle cleanse. If it is your first cleanse be careful. You will read and hear some crazy stuff out there. I have done a lot of them..hehe. Then you really just want to avoid processed foods like the other posters are saying. One good rule of thumb is avoid boxed or canned food. Avoid the "whites" too.…

I think the number one reason...not enough xanax. :)

ROFL!!!

My personal trainer told me not to eat them back unless you are doing above and beyond your normal workouts then eat a bit more.

Oopsy...missed the memo on panties AND as a teacher....please no hitting, no biting, no pushing, ughhh....lol

Yikes!! Now that is scary!

Wow, now that is really what a lot of us do really fear deep down. Thanks for sharing that!

I thought of more...falling for another "fixer-upper", disappointing people AND escalators...one tried to eat me when I was little.

Anything happening to my son Failure Even numbers

I am new to MFP also. I do a lot of weight training on top of the cardio as well as group fitness classes. Is there a way to put in the calories burned for strength training? Am I just missing it? I know when I work with my trainer....I have to be burning some calories...lol.

You're welcome. If you can't tell I LOVE tofu!

I suffered from depression and anxiety in silence for years. Like many of the above posters I thought medication was a last resort. I tried everything...I mean everything. I finally realized that if I were diabetic I would see nothing wrong using insulin....depression and anxiety aren't a made up problem. They are a real…

It actually has tons of health benefits http://www.fitday.com/fitness-articles/nutrition/healthy-eating/the-health-benefits-of-tofu-is-it-nutritious-enough-to-replace-meat.html http://mdheal.org/healthtips/tofu.htm

I just thought of one more thing. There is also Tofu Shirataki Noodles. They are super low calorie noodle replacement.

You can marinate it in anything. My favorite is a spicy Korean chile sauce. For this, I like the extra firm. I just cut the tofu into fourths or sixths, put it flat onto a pile of paper towels on a plate, put a bunch more paper towels on top of it, stack a ton of plates on top of that, and put it in the fridge. After a few…

I love tofu! It has to be prepared well though. It takes on the taste of whatever you prepare it with or marinate it in. The best thing to do it to press it first to remove the excess liquid then marinate it. Yum, yum!!!
