  • If I don't workout in the morning I usually won't workout at all. I prefer getting in, working hard, getting done, getting on with my day. You have to make exercising a habit, like brushing your teeth or getting a shower. You will never, ever regret a work out, no matter how much you don't want to do it. Don't think about…

  • NSV = non-scale victory! The shorts that I wear as pj's have gotten so big on me that they fall down when I walk, I'm constantly pulling them up. Most of my shorts and skorts need a belt now. One pair of shorts and one skort I can put on/off without unbuttoning/unzipping them. :bigsmile: Not one person, at all, has said…

  • If it were me in this situation, I'd leave the house 15 min earlier to avoid her. If that failed (she started leaving earlier too) I'd film her over a period of a couple of weeks. You're facing her and it will be clear if she is crossing over the line towards you. She will see you filming her and that alone may make her…

  • I have a pair of Kathy Ireland shorts that I bought from K-Mart yearrrrrs ago ... like eons. They're elastic waist, no string to make them lose/tight, super cozy, I wear them as summer pj's w/a t-shirt. What started out as having to turn the waist down once to keep them up has turned into turning the waist down three times…

    in What to eat with Lobster other than butter? Comment by looseseal July 2014
  • 1. Do all the work upfront so you have a big plate of lobster. 2. Squeezy squeeze some lemon over the pile of lobster. 3. Drizzle some butter over all that lovely lobster. 4. Do the lobster dance! Seriously, set aside 200 cals for 2 Tblspns of butter and enjoy. Eat other things besides just lobster. Move more today and…

  • I recently had a root canal and the dentist put me on a (preventative) antibiotic. Gaaaa, it rocked my stomach and I had to stop taking it after about the 5 or 6th day (10 day course). I was totally and completely exhausted, did some googling, found out that the antibiotics kill the bad and good bacteria in my gut,…

  • Is that a website? I bought a 10 lb kettlebell about five or six weeks ago and have only used it once and ... I don't think it's heavy enough! But I'm not familiar enough with these types of workouts to really know how much I should be attempting.

  • I've tried doing that before and for me, it just doesn't work. I always felt not full enough and was hungry and waiting around till I could eat again. For me, I'm better off eating a good b-fast (400 cals give or take), lunch, snack (if needed) and dinner that stick with me for several hours. I try my best to combine good…

  • My youngest got braces when she was in fourth grade. She also had an arched palate and needed a palate expander. Medieval device! She couldn't eat for quite some time so I made her protein shakes. I've tweaked them and eat them myself. 1/2 block extra firm tofu (don't say ewww, you don't taste it and it gives the shake a…

  • Oh, just to be clear. I wasn't suggesting to feed a cat baby food for their main food or for a long time. Just if they get sick and refuse to eat anything else, even crap cat food, try the baby food tip ... just to get them eating again. And yes about the onion/garlic. I used Gerber 1st stage food and it only listed beef,…

  • The baby food tip is the best tip I've read. My cat was hungry -- he would go over to his food but whatever was wrong with him, he just wouldn't eat. He had been throwing up for two days prior to not eating. I couldn't even get him to eat people tuna, turkey, chicken ... nothing. I was doubtful the baby food would work,…

  • I've given and taken this advice many times. Just for one day, today, stay on track. Just today. Don't worry about all the food you ate yesterday or if you can do this all over again tomorrow. Just focus on today. There were times (for me anyway) where I literally had to focus on just breakfast, then lunch, then dinner.…
