Cravings are caused by sugary sweets & of course that prompts you to eat more sweets. I've found that the best thing to do is ween yourself off the sweets rather than just trying to stop. I've got to the point I can have 1 small square of 72% dark chocolate whenever that craving happens, which is usually once a week or…

Agree!

The best thing is to have smaller goals & you won't feel like it's so far off & unattainable. It took you quite a while to gain the weight, you will not lose it any quicker. Don't think about failing, take a deep breath, tell yourself you Can do it & you WILL do it. Set your goal at 10 to 20 lbs gone, give yourself a…

Which proves he's full of krap!:laugh:

Anyone who is a Specialist may be very good in their chosen field but they usually don't know squat about anything else!:noway:

Although I don't get migraines too often, I do suffer from chronic sinus headaches due to various allergies. Sorry I can't suggest total relief from the headaches but if any of the exercises trigger them, try some yoga. You'd be surprised at how many calories it can burn, not to mention relaxing the brain with the…

Great minds!:devil:

I'd be worried as to whether the kidney beans in the Chili, were!!!! Oh! :sick: barf!

Let's face it, if any of these quick fixes worked, there would not be any obesity in the world & none of use would be here. :yawn:

Gotta love the Seal A Meal machine! I make extra of everything now, just so I can freeze meals for later. :love:

Chinese food in the Western world is made for us. Chinese people actually don't eat the same Chinese food that we do, which is why they aren't usually fat!

The worst one of my pet peeves is a can of soup 70 cals for 125 ml but there's 284 ml in a can. Ummm! you'd think they could tell us how many cals are in a half a can instead, or put 250 in the flippin' can. Wonder how many extra cals we burn trying to figure out the proper measurements! :tongue: And I also know a lot of…

I'm at 250 days in a row this time!:happy:

I use Shirakiku Shirataki White Noodles in all my stir-fry recipes, they're way better than ramen. Calories 0 Fat 0g Sodium 0mg Carbohydrate 0g Fiber 0g Sugar 0g Protein 0g Doesn't get any better than that!:bigsmile:

Don't you have clubs down there that musicians can jam at? That would be neutral ground & a good way to find out if you could tolerate this guy. :smokin:

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<wicked *itch! :devil:

Agreed! the no sugar added variety is an excellent choice, even though it has a few calories.

'64' Valiant, push button start lol! & they think that's something new! wahaha! :smokin:

78's, LP's & 45's all vinyl, 8 tracks & cassettes. Rabbit ears to watch black & white t.v., Drive-In movies, portable manual typewriter, still have mine. Atari, PacMan, Space Invaders, airplanes with props, OMG! I am older than dirt!!!!!!!!!!! :cry: Oh yeah & reel to reel tape decks!

In Canada they used to supply tea & biscuits (plain cookies) after donating.:drinker:

I get boney shoulders & unfortunately "the girls" are what take a hike first! :grumble:

If you have an ipod etc you can record your own music to dance to. I do 1 hour of Pitbull, Enrique, Rihanna. JLo etc, something with a good beat. :glasses: :smokin:

I only use it with honey in hot water for sore throat & colds, I also use it with olive oil as a salad dressing. Don't think my stomach could take it with just water, Good luck!:drinker:

Lindsay Lohan - wish they'd just throw her in jail & be done with it!

Check out my avatar, need I say more! And yes, the one in my ticker is mine too! MEOW! :love:

Everyone burns differently, you really need an HRM to gage your burns. I only burn 479 calories in a 75 min class of hot yoga.:sad:

I drink unsweetened coconut water after a workout too. It replaces your electrolytes.
