Can't get the link at work either, will check it out later.

I wish we could stop, it's an everyday thing at our house. Drink from 6-10 then dinner then bed - just working wonders for our waistlines. I think we may have gotten to the end of the rope though, my liver hurts and DH feels like crap all of the time. For those of you who quit completely did you pick a day - say June 1 and…

How old are you? I am surprised that the doctor did not automatically prescribe BP pills. BP is nothing to play around with so he/she must have confidence that you can lower it on your own. My doc told me number 1 culprit was cheese so cut out pizza, cheeseburgers, etc. It's been very hard for me since DH is die hard…

Love those dresses and you look great!

Has your fiance done the math for the drink card? We drink a lot on cruises but not enough to equal the drink card. If you drink a bunch of fruity drinks and eat all three meals and deserts you'll probably do some damage; but you might be running around all day and up and down stairs and work it all off. Some cruises I…

I am addicted to weighing everyday during the week but never even think about it on the weekends. I don't think I could go a month without weighing.

broccoli does it for me - whew baby! Doesn't matter if fresh or cooked. And potato chips but for some reason those smell the same coming out as going in. (sorry - but bet it keeps you away from the chips!)

Dh will love this.

Over in the recipe section someone posted a recipe using eggs, spinach, mushrooms and cheese and baking them in muffin tins. My husband makes these about once a week and stores them in the refrigerator so I can take them to work for breakfast. She posted them as 62 calories each but I came up without about 50. I like to…

"How's come" when used for "why". How's come you didn't go to the gym today? Drives me nuts. Tasty I love Peeps though! And never thought of roasting them like a marshmellow. (talking about the yellow bunny things, not the annoying peeps here in the office. :smile: )

It's not the chocolate, it's the Peeps. I love Peeps, no matter what color. (although yellow is best) And I hate that they are now making Halloween and Christmas Peeps, Peeps are for Easter, people!!

I'm tracking it because I'm pre pre diabetic but it is annoying. Could not believe there was sugar in low sodium V-8 juice or in greek yogurt. Who knew? After my numbers are back down I think I will stop tracking again because it's the only number that is always over.

thanks for the recipes.

thanks for all the tips!

You didn't say how many soda's you are drinking a day, that could make a difference in our suggestions. And if they are full flavored or diet or caffeine free? (I'm guessing not caffeine free) I used to have 1 regular coke everyday at work @ 3pm every single work day - probably for about 10 years - and then just decided to…

You may also want to do a search for the other threads on the 5:2 diet and there are also 2 groups that I know of in the group section. "The Fast Diet" book is now out in the US, the program in the UK last year on his findings started many people on the 5:2 path.

On my first 14 (15?) cruises I lost weight every time due to all the walking. We love having cabins in the very back (aft) to watch the wake so it would be a hike to get on/off the ship and to the buffett. The last 2 cruises I did gain a little 3-4 pounds but the very last one was a 16 day cruise and the weather was…

I just finished Jen Lancaster's "My Fair Lazy" which was cute and funny but not really thought provoking until the end. It gave me some ideas of how my husband and I can get off the couch and away from the TV and start some new experiences. I'm about to start on the final Harry Potter book, not sure if I can stand the…

Think of how proud you will be of yourself once you've done it. And how lousy you will feel if you don't.

Be careful! :happy:

I am trying to add friends on my goodreads account (to get free books, it says the more active you are and the more friends you have the better your chances) but when I go to the Friends section all I get is the option to add people from my face book friends or my email contacts. How do I enter somebody not from either of…

I do that exercise where you touch your fingers on the right hand to the toes on your left foot and then alternate. I think Jack Lalane used to do it on his show. (thats REALLLLLLY old) I keep thinking it will help whittle my waist but so far no luck - probably because I only remember to do it like once a week. :laugh:

Thanks for the links and books, I will check them out also. (57 here - gasp)

Funny, I was just sitting here thinking how much I hate my fat belly. Everything else is just a little 'fluffy' but the belly is F A T. I hate it.

Thanks for the link. I had two Joye 510's and lost them both :sad: but was not real happy with them because the vapor would make me choke. (I think it was 12mg) Then I tried one of the Njoy disposables which gave me a terrible headache. Back to the drawing board.
