  • Alcoholic beverages.
  • Almonds or pistachios can help stem the urge for the salty snacks. I've been getting those little Jell-O sugar free pudding cups, 70 calories per, for when I'd really like some ice cream. Also, here's a piece of advice that really helped me. If it's not in your house, you can't eat it. So don't buy it in the first place.…
  • Now this is a discussion that society has waited way too long to have. At 59 proud years, I approve. 8-) All of you who said yes have remarkably sophisticated tastes.
  • The town was named after Lord Dunmore, who fought a famous but largely futile war with the native Americans, Lord Dunmore's war, in the early 18th century. Could be you are part of that brood, spelling was more interpretive back in those days.
  • Dunmore, PA, right next to Scranton. I never ran into Joe Biden, though everybody knew the Casey's. Lot's of tasty cakes, hoagies, and pierogi, not to mention white pizza, porketta, french fries with gravy, and 24 hour diners. Hard to maintain there, even now when I just go back to visit.
  • Get a nice omelet, maybe mushrooms and cheese, 2 pieces of bacon, a piece of toast with jam, a cup of coffee, and a glass of orange juice. Then split it with your partner. Stay away from the pastry, even a small one can set you back 200 calories. You can get out of this with something in the 300-400 calorie range, and…
  • Here's an idea, ask for more responsibility at work. Even better, look for opportunities to contribute to the business on your own. It's worth a shot, and it might turn out that you find yourself on a better long-term career path. Can't hurt to try.
  • Provolone cheese is much tastier than, let's say, Kraft. The goat cheese is fantastic. They also have gluten free stuff - sweet potato chips, corn spaghetti, fresh Udy's bread. The wine selection is accessibly priced. I get the organix vanilla soy milk there by the quart, and the butter chicken with basmati rice frozen…
  • Cook a loin of pork in one bottle of root beer on low for 6 hours. Discard liquid, shred pork, mix with bbq sauce.
  • Well, the obvious things are to move closer to work and use what used to be commute time to train. Alternatively, you could get a job closer to where you live. If neither one is possible, do what the other folks here are telling you. :happy:
  • Make your own, if you have a blender it's not hard. Chickpeas, tahini, garlic, a little lemon juice, and parseley. A little salt doesn't hurt. Put just a little olive oil and some paprika on top of a scoop, eat it on toasted pita points with a small portion of top ramen soup and a couple of greek olives. If you're under…
  • I also sweat profusely, and it doesn't make any difference if I'm in shape or not. I think that tendency is something you inherit. The thing that bothers me, though, is that after I'm done with whatever it was that made me sweat, I'll keep sweating for maybe half an hour or so afterwards, though it tapers off. Drink lots…
