I swear by blue powerade. In my heavy-drinking days my close friends would know when I had a crazy night bc I would drink a giant blue powerade. Now that I have significantly cut back on my drinking, I hope I don't have a hangover on Sunday. I've got to remember to drink a ton of water and take an ibuprofen before I go to…

Five servings of fruits and veggies Hitting 100% of calcium, iron, and potassium Doing a new workout like dancing/Zumba, yoga Getting a certain number of miles in by walking, running, or elliptical Keeping sugar below 25 grams a day Nothing besides water to drink Hope this helps!

Finish losing the weight. As of this week, I am halfway there. Run a half marathon. I got up to a 10k, then I took some time off to let things heal/took a vacation/got sick so I am back at running 3-4 miles. I really just need to bite the bullet and sign up for one. And lastly, get pregnant!

I get annoyed when I really want a bite of something and I know I have the calories for it, but I won't because I am too lazy to figure out the tiny portion size to log it! I guess that is one way to keep me from snacking! Another annoyance is when I look at the database for the calorie count to a simple food, like pork…

I quit (for the most part) drinking alcohol and I started exercising. I have not changed my eating too much, but I am losing slowly. I'm ok with this.

I marinate them for a few hours in a mustard/jelly combo, then I cook on a pan with no oil but with the rest of the sauce. Sounds a bit odd, but I think it tastes good.

Don't feed the troll! They have been on other forum posts doing the same thing! There is a reason her profile is closed/has no profile pic/no ticker!

Enell.com I'm large, have been for a long, long time and this is the only sports bra that holds them down.

I completely get what you are saying. There is some error in however you are tracking food in or energy out. My suggestion would be to not eat back all of your exercise calories. I try to have 100-200 calories left over by the end of the day. I am only on a 1 lb/week loss so there is no way I am going to hit that dreaded…

I've worn contacts for 20 years and have played soccer in them every single time. They have never fallen out nor have I ever gotten sweat in my eyes. Contacts are awesome, you need to work with your opthamalogist to find the right pair.

I'm glad to hear someone else who is wogging/jogging is running 10ks! I ran my first 10k this past week and out of about 3000 people I was in the last 500! I was proud of my 1:15 time and I was really proud that I ran most of it! I wasn't so proud that someone wearing jeggings (JEGGINGS!!!!) beat me :( Anyway, my mile time…

I had them when I first started running, they are so painful! What I did was I went to a specialty running store and got fitted for shoes. Turns out I have a severe overpronation and I needed stability shoes. They weren't too expensive, around $90. That helped a massive amount. Then, I looked online and found some…

ugh that is terrible news. I use their workouts when the weather is bad/don't feel like running. It was what got me started on working out. I wonder if comcast will at least offer a non on-demand channel for workouts. Guess I've got to start buying real videos...

Everytime I had a craving, I went for a walk or a run. I shook off my nicotine addictions and exchanged them for an exercise addiction! It has worked and I am so happy I quit. I started my weight loss on the same day. It has been 130 days, I've lost 24 lbs, and yesterday I ran a 10k.

Forgot to add: I taught a Ricky and his two older brothers were Richie and Richard. I guess the parents REALLY liked the name!

One summer, in late high school, I worked two jobs. In the morning, I worked as an assistant at a vet's office, walking dogs, cleaning cages, messes, etc. In the afternoon and evening I worked at a BBQ restaurant. Between those two jobs, I completely lost my appetite and it was the only other time in my life I have been…

I switched to a macbook about three years back and I love it. My Dell was just too slow, bulky, and cumbersome. iMovie is easy to use. I teach high school and we are a apple campus and we have the kids use iMovie all the time and they learn it really quickly.

My husband is half Thai and his cousins (who live in Thailand) have the nicknames of Igloo and Wigwam. They are well into their adult lives, have professional jobs, and still go by those names.

That's sounds like something I would love! Do you have the exact recipe?

foodgawker.com is the best resource for most meals. It has thumbnails of a ton of different recipes, which then link to the webpage where the recipe can be found. If you search the site for specific recipes, I bet you will find recipes from a ton of cooking websites that specialize in Indian food.

This isn't an awful thing (although I could talk plenty about that), but I wish my parents had been a little more daring and open about the foods they fed us. My parents were both very midwestern, plain and simple with the foods they ate, and we never strayed from the same few foods. Vegetables were almost always frozen…

Festivus for the rest of us! Poor spelling, punctuation, and grammar skills. My biggest peeve is when people say "I seen". People who speed recklessly on our highways. I am ok with you putting your life at risk, but don't put MY life at risk with your crazy driving. Bureaucracy and overspending in the government. I wish…

Easy reasons: Stopped being on sports teams, really enjoyed food, really enjoyed drinking, didn't so much like exercising. The psychological side of it is that when I was younger, my mom (who is tiny) would constantly monitor our food intake and give us hell about bad food choices. When I went away to college, a lot of…

For some reason, the MFP burn for circuit training is much too high. Even when I do some very high-intensity circuit training and use my hrm, I don't get near the calorie burn that MFP says I should have. When I use my hrm for the 30ds, I burn about 220 for level one and 240-250 for levels two and three. I am 5'6"/185 but…

We had taken our first international trip together to Peru and we were in Machu Picchu. His late mother had traveled there by herself a number of tears before and my husband wanted pictures of him standing in the same place and in the same pose, so we had trekked all over the area with her pictures as a guide, trying to…

Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance Plan out all of your meals on the weekend and ONLY buy those things. Don't go to the grocery store and buy a bunch of crappy food just because it looks good (ice cream, chips, cookies). We only buy food that we use in our meals and we don't have a lot of food laying around that…

I plan on eating the following first: Turkey breast with cranberry sauce, not dressing. I am going to try to eat about 6 oz first Sweet potato casserole (I will not eat the marshmallow or probably the nuts) Mashed potatoes with very little gravy If there are green beans not doused in cream of mushroom soup, I will eat them…

Great story! You have done a fantastic job!

Leon's is on Broadway, pretty close to the turnoff to I-45. Fair warning, it's a dive and it is not as traditional as places like Salt Lick, Rudy's, Pappas, etc but their meat is delish!
