Tonight I'm using them on 10oz of wine :embarassed: lol! Hey, I had like 300 cals leftover and I've done very well ALL day... I rarely drink, and that bottle in the fridge is calling my name. This is not, obviously, how I recommend you use your calories :wink: I happen to be full from dinner, and after my day, I could use…

Some friends recommended the site. Haven't been doing so awesome at keeping up on it though! I've always been chubby, the highest my weight got was before I was pregnant with my first (I was up in the 150s and uncomfortable). After he was born we had to go on a special diet and I dropped to 98lbs. Doesn't sound like a lot,…

I have a small container garden. Tomatoes cucumbers peppers carrots basil and I know there is more... Oh onions

It's been years - but I used to drink ONLY soda. I have no idea how much a drank, because I got it for free at work AND went through a case of 24 at home/week. Needless to say, it was a lot. The first week was hard. First I stopped drinking it at home. Then I held myself to 1 at work. Then I stopped all together. The…

I've been seriously considering cutting corn lately. I've been having a lot of issues, and it occured to me that I'm eating a TON of corn. I'm also considering ditching the rice, but that's going to be even harder for me :/. I LOVE rice.

If you a: stay away from premade gluten free food (which largely has no nutrition to begin with, and is typically high in calories and carbs), b: eat mostly real food from scratch, and c: stay away from dessert dishes - then yeah, you'll lose weight. I only lost weight after going gluten free because I wasn't so freaking…

Just finished: Wind through the Keyhole (King) Hunger Games Trilogy (Collins - OMG loved them!!!) The Secret Keeper & The Secret Keeper Confined (It was Ok, not awesome don't recall the author?) Harry Potter - pick one, I've recently read it, lol. The Stand (King - the unabridged version that I had previously been unaware…

I have two: on my left ankle (inside) black flowers, one for each of us (myself, my husband and our two boys), and the other on top of my left foot is a celtic tree of life - which is to always remember that my stepmom saved my Dad's life by donating a kidney to him. It's got a lot of meaning for me. Planing a couple more…

Yup, don't get a dog if you're not up for it! We rescused our Eva a year ago now. She's a lab/shepherd mix (we think?? lol). She's getting close to about 3 years old we think. Biggest sweetheart ever!! She's so good with my boys, who are wild at 4 & 6, lol. Not the brightest dog ever, but I think she does OK, she gets what…

Not dx as Celiac, but strict gluten free - any one can feel free to add me too. I've been slacking really bad lately though :embarassed: I'm going to try really really hard to get back into the swing of it!!

Oooh, careful with the vegetarian 'meats' - a LOT of them contain gluten, and so do canned beans. That's cross-contamination for you. I was lucky when I went gluten free - I already had a very good grasp of cross contamination and label reading practice as my oldest has had a severe dairy allergy since he was 1. My gluten…

That looks so yummy! Dang I wish I could have oats... I need to find a good oat replacement that I actually like, lol!

Um, yea... Law is 8 AND 80lbs AND 4'9". The reasons for this are simple. You have to properly fit the seat belt for it to WORK in an accident. I'd send the car seat. My oldest (nearly 7) just switched to a low back booster because of the way the seat belt fits when he's in the high back. It wasn't a proper fit, therefore I…

Amazing!! Congrats!!! Your story is truly inspirational!

If you're diagnosed Celiac, please don't do this. Cross contamination risks are VERY real. You cannot just scrape the toppings off a pizza, its already contaminated with gluten. Please, please read the risks for eating gluten containing foods if you are a diagnosed celiac. Your villi in your stomach will never heal if you…

Yup. For me to was. I don't know that it was love - but I knew that he was the man I'd marry. I just *knew* (admittedly, I have very good intuition, lol). I had just started back at an old job, working at the local movie theater. He was brand, spanking new there (in fact, ALL the employees were, which happened to be a…

I have 2, 6 & 4 years old. My hardest thing? Getting them to not be underfoot whilst I'm using the TV to workout. And moan about how its THEIR turn for the TV. And listen to my 6 year old scream bloody murder because I'm taking the dog for a jog. Really?? (Yes, he stood at the end of the driveway screaming for 10 minutes -…

Don't dye it. The s&p will look better, and dye never looks right! And you're just now getting some gray? That's amazing. My high school boyfriend was graying already (and through pictures on facebook, its completely gray now, he's only 30). I'm almost 32, and I've got lots of gray hair. I'm not going to dye it either.…

be my friend,lol. I thought I was the only one!! It drives me crazy that my kids were born in 05 and 07, because of the uneven numbers! I change the stereo volume by one if it happens to be, say 17. My husband thinks I'm nuts.

I got funny looks from a pharmacist once because I asked about the gluten content of a medication. After that, I made sure my doctor understood to double and triple check before he prescribed something! I check to make sure my soap, shampoo, and conditioner are gluten free. Also also check make up and lip sticks and such,…

I have a BA in History. I seriously had no idea what I wanted to be, and I Really like history. I concentrated mainly on Chinese and Japanese history, and I don't remember a thing. Truly.

Welcome! I'm a newly implanted MN gal now :), we moved up from IL about 4 months ago. I live about an hour from the cities. I have to say, I really like it here! It feels more like 'home' than home did :D

1. Buy a bikini 2. Wear said bikini out of the house :0) My weight has fluctuated so much the last few years, that I just want the flub on my tummy gone. That's all. I don't even care about the stretch marks anymore. I just want the c-section shelf gone!

Diarrhea, joint pain, foggy-headed feeling in addition to a migraine (which will be the last to leave - takes about 2 full weeks, then I'll suddenly wake up and be fine, wtf?? lol), grumpy and emotional, nauseous, little red bumps come back on my arms (while the bumps on my arms have gone away since going GF, the ones on…

Probiotics. Lots of them! I need to deal with this too. I'm having a really, ahem, hard time lately. After having IBS for so long, not being able to go is an issue! I'm taking a laxative 2x a week right now. And I drink plenty of water, and eat plenty of fat. Pretty sure I'm getting enough fiber too. I do have an issue…

I was wondering the same thing! We have a weight machine thing, but I hate it. I use it, but I hate it, lol. It's a Weider Pro something. I hate that it doesn't even tell me how much weight I'm pulling :grumble: And, there isn't that many exercises I can do on it. Being short, its hard to reach all the things on it. And…

I had to get my kid off chicken nuggets. You know, the frozen kind? I don't know if its Autism related, or what, but he wouldn't eat anything else. Ever. He would simply NOT EAT. For days. Eventually, I just stopped buying them. We had a rough week, but he finally got off the nugget kick. He's still beyond picky. There are…

I do because I am set to sedentary. Anytime I get my butt off the couch I log it, lol. This morning I spent 45 minutes deep cleaning the bathroom, I logged it. That was hard work, ha! But I was scrubbing the floor and the walls.
