I'm pretty sure knox is stronger since I think its used mostly for those "salads" and "molds" that you see on recipe cards from the 70's. Its also not flavored.

Hopefully, you have the receipt. Make sure you speak to a manager. Be willing to talk all day in order to get what you want. State what it is that you want over and over again like you have a brain defect. You don't have to yell, you just make it clear that you have all day. If the manager won't agree, tell him or her that…

I read that. Interesting but gross. I think that after about 3 days I would just look at the snack cake and loose my appetite.

Unless you just want some rice, then have the steamed white rice (or brown if its offered, i don't think its a big deal.)

Or, you can just eat Twinkies. http://articles.latimes.com/2010/nov/08/news/la-heb-twinkies-diet-20101108 The guy lost 27 pounds eating nothing but snack cakes just to prove a calorie is a calorie. Better him than me.

Ditto except I weigh on Tuesday morning.

I do "save up for the weekend" but I'm not trying to loose weight, just maintain.

I agree. Well said.

Welcome. For some reason, your intro really made me smile. I like nerds. I am one. I think you will like it just fine here.

I go with diet tonic and lime.

A friend of mine posted this on FB: Are you feeling bad about yourself ??? I have the perfect Rx----5 minutes of Jerry Springer and you will realize you are a total Stud. just sayin LOL You could try it.

Maybe you are having a bad day? You look like a young and lovely ginger to me.

I don't know what to say. I think its a combo of hormones and your thyroid but I'm an Interior Designer, not a doctor. That's got to suck. I hope you find the help that you need.

I was having a similar rant to a friend of mine who has been through this. She says, you are 45, your progesterone is tanked and then she suggested that I get this stuff from the health food store called Pro Gest. I haven't used it yet, but she swears by it. I guess what I'm saying is you have a hormone imbalance and…

I try not to exercise right after I eat a meal, however, if I am exercising first thing in the morning, I do have a snack of toast and peanut butter or a bit of cheese before I head out. That's so i don't fall off the treadmill.

I eat it. Get the leaner ground beef. Drain it. Rinse it with hot water to take the grease off.

That man is completely out of line and you shouldn't explain anything to him, its none of his business. The most you should have to do is give him a disdainful look and continue with your workout.

That's what I thought, too!!! :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

I think that if you are loosing weight, you shouldn't over think it, just stay the course for now. At some point, you will plateau. That's when you start worrying about how to mix it up.

I have a digital scale that I got at Walmart for $30. I couldn't even tell you the brand. I also weigh myself at the gym on the Dr's scale on a regular basis. The digital scale is pretty darn accurate. The only complaint I have is it tends to move in increments of .5 whereas the Dr's scale, you know, is more accurate. At…

Or worse, a human vacuum when hungover.

I switched to light beer for now. Heineken Light is drinkable and doesn't send you straight from sober to hungover with nothing in the middle. I used to be a microbrew girl, but the calories add up way to fast.

"Can't sleep, the clown will eat me. Can't sleep, the clown will eat me" Bart Simpson. LOL.

You are Moroccan/Irish, I see from your profile. Leave the (I'm guessing traditional) Moroccan side of you home and take the 19 year old Irish side of you to the Dr. To quote an old song from the 60's, "You're 18 you can do what you like."

You could just switch to a regular salad dressing or something. The sauces and gravies comment made me think of that. If you are way below all of the time, it means you can actually butter your bread (or jelly it) you know what I mean.

string it. more fun that way.

For me, I worry less about one splurge on the Thanksgiving meal than I worry about noshing on the leftovers. It's being a repeat offender that will get me. I think that this year, I'm just going to make less of the high calorie things to cut back on the temptation of leftovers. I don't mind so much about the turkey, but…

It happens to me sometimes, especially if I am walking instead of running because of the way I hold my arms. Sometimes I lift my hands over my head for a bit and I can feel the swelling going down. Sometimes, I don't really do anything about it. It goes away when I cool back down.

Spot on. When I first read your post the first thing I thought of was, "did she just have a baby?" Your hormones are changing. You are fine.

Hop-in-john is a tasty dish of black eyed peas, onion and rice. It goes well with ham. Then you can have some steamed broccoli on the side and maybe some baked apples.
