  • Portabella Mushroom burgers. Trust me - they are amazing. If you get really fresh portabellas they don't even taste like mushrooms, which is great for those in my life who aren't mushroom fans. Also, if you stack it full of topings (lettuce, tomato, bell peppers, banana peppers, pickles) and some mustard it feels like a…

  • I actually heard something on NPR about this very thing a few months ago. I can't find the exact program write up but attached is a Live Strong article that basically says what was stated in the NPR program: http://www.livestrong.com/article/266063-does-coffee-prevent-weight-loss/ Basically, coffee in little doses can be…

  • Go online and try PZI jeans. They are based here out of Atlanta and are wonderful. They are literally made to fit snugly around your butt when your pulling them on but once you get them over your hips they zip up comfortably around your tummy and make your but look awesome by being roomy in the seat area They are a company…

  • Wow, grumpy much? Indeed, but YOU have the right to ask for your money back and get the *snap* out of there. Be sure to take a look around before registering at a gym.

  • As stated above by many other MFP users - Biotin. Prenatal vitamins work as well but they mainly focus on the texture of your hair and the clarity of your skin. The reason biotin works so well at growing out your hair (and nails) is because it is actually a vitamin that speeds up your metabolism. So everything in your body…

  • Honestly, I don't really mind. Usually if a guy lacks in height he makes up for it in other ways. However, I must stress this point, if the guy has a "Napoleon Complex" he is out the door. It's not the height, it's the way you handle it.

  • Thanks! I'll definitely check it out. I've only been a vegan for a month and it's been pretty easy so far, like I said, it's mainly the sugar that gets me. Then again, I have days like today when I eat vegetable sushi with Sweet chili sauce and totally knock myself out of the water *sigh* at least I know for next time,…

  • I honestly believe it's your Iron and Vitamin D intake. I've been cold my whole life, whether it was at 220 pounds or now at 145 pounds. I have a low iron count and people who diet tend to decrease the iron in their blood. Make sure you're supplementing your diet with lots of iron based foods.
    in Since losing weight, are you cold? Comment by Beccaliebchen February 2012
  • Girl, it is totally up to you. I was 220 at my heaviest and I'm at 145 right now. My goal weight is 140 and I tell ya, the closer I get to my "goal number" the more I look at myself and say, "Y'know, I don't think this is just right yet." So here's my advice- set a healthy goal weight, get down to it and stop, re-evaluate…

  • You should watch "Food, Inc.", that will certainly make you think twice about eating corn, or eating anything that is force fed corn, aka: cows, chicken, pigs, and even some fish. Monsanto has a monopolistic grip on the farming industry and treat their farmers like crap and other farmers who want nothing to do with them…

  • I gave up so much when I went vegan so I'm actually sitting here thinking - "What on earth could I give up?" Coffee seems to be a good choice but I honestly don't think my kids and my husband would want me to give that up. LOL!

  • Hey there, I was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder about 8 years ago and, needless to say, it's been a "roller coaster ride" for me and my family so I know where you are coming from when you say depression just creeps up on you all of a sudden - for no reason whatsoever. I can honestly tell you that the only thing that…

  • Oh my goodness, this is exactly what I needed! You have no idea, I just ate a full cup of brown rice last night and was shocked to find that I had consumed 300+ calories, on the rice alone. This idea is ingenious! Now, one question - if you don't have a food processor would a blender work?
