When we have ordered it, it easily serves 5 of us with a small amount left over. As much as I love them, I can't for the life of me imagine eating an entire one by myself.

25, and I'm 70.

I drink only Diet Dr. Pepper. Everything else I like has sugar in it and I live with an insulin pump so I just don't drink milk, fruit juices, etc. I also can barely stand water. I have never been one to drink water unless I was crawling thru the desert and nothing else was available. Two things in your list that I would…

If I were younger, yes; but she's younger than my granddaughter.

Please, and thank you.

In a heartbeat - right after I get my wife's permission.

Welcome, Rose. That's exactly what I do. I eat those things that I like and try to stay under my calorie limit. I've been at this for 4 months and have lost 32 pounds. What has become habit, and I hope it remains habit, is to open a kitchen cabinet door or the refrigerator door with the intent to get a snack only to close…

Never tried that. Maybe I'd score better!!!

Great job on the 41 pound loss. Keep up the focus and you will achieve your goal. What do I hope to achieve in May? 1. Continue losing no matter how much or how little. If I can lose 1 pound/week that will have me closer to my goal than I am today. 2. Play a LOT of golf. No matter how much golf one gets in their life, it…

Bears Chicken Noodle Soup and saltine crackers because we had lunch in a restaurant and didn't feel the need for a large supper.

Funny. Your finger looks like a pin cushion was left out.

Why would they consider 83 to be low? The low reading alarm on my pump is set to let me know if my BS goes down to 70.

I don't know if this will be of any help; but, maybe it will be. When I went on an insulin pump years ago, I learned that the pump can be programed to provide different basal rates at different times during the day. One of the things that was done by the pump clinic educator was to increase the amount of insulin being…

Audra, I think you've stated why you haven't lost in the past 2 months. However, even if you don't eat in your calorie range, you can lose if your net calories after exercise are within the range. It may be a small adjustment is needed in reigning in the calories or doing a bit more exercise, or a combination of both. If…

Back in the early 1970s I worked with a gent that wanted to go to a particular restaurant every Tuesday for lunch for their special - blue point oysters. I've never understood how anyone can eat one of those slimy things. But, I'm the guy that thinks applesauce makes the perfect dip for EVERYTHING. Just last night it was…

I tipped the scales at 185.0 this morning - down from 216.2 on 12/27/14. That is the same weight I was at when my wife and I married 31 years ago. My original target was 190; however, I am now shooting for 170. When I got out of boot camp in 1966 I weighed 169. I'll be amazed if I get there; but, I won't be disappointed if…

I was like, "What?!" I'm doing it all wrong, eating eggs before noon ?! :smile: [/quote] Yeah, it has to do with actually having to look at an uncooked yolk. Yolk is a word synonymous with yuck. lol!!

My favorite breakfast since I don't care all that much for cereals, and eggs shouldn't be eaten before noon, is the following: 1 medium banana...105 calories 1 cup grapefruit segments...60 calories 1 cup strawberries...50 calories 5 oz. grapes...100 calories Total calories is 315 which isn't bad. At least I can't think of…

Not many. My golf partner and I buy season passes to the D.A. Weibring Golf Course at Illinois State University. I played 1 round while we were in SC last week and I will play 2 of the courses at Innisbrook in Tarpon Springs, FL in June (not the Copperhead Course where the tour plays) and maybe 2 other courses during the…

Doing well. We've returned from our short trip south and the sun is now out and the temps are in the 60s. That means golf!!!! Played a round on Saturday, spent Sunday watching the Masters after which I mowed the yard, and will be playing another 18 holes tomorrow. There is nothing quite like the beginning of golf season to…

First off, welcome to the group. As you know, if it were easy we wouldn't need help and support along the way. You've come to the right place for those things. You are correct about it being a bit tiresome measuring everything you eat. However, from my experience if you will be diligent in doing so, one day you will…

Due to spring break for the schools, our trip to SC and now a short visit from my son and his family, I will not get to the pool until next week. Those are not excuses - they are reasons. Anyway, the 1 trip I did make to the pool has convinced me I will most likely be swimming my laps using the sidestroke. It will, I…
