  • 2007 Mustang red and convertible :love:
  • Welcome to the community!!! I just sent you a friend request :flowerforyou:
  • I have had dark circles all my life. The doctor said that the skin near my eyes is so thin that you can see the capillaries through the skin. So the blood that irrigates the eyes is what actually causes the dark circles. At least in my case. So far the best remedy I found is to use a concealer. The only one that works for…
  • Let me say first of all that all these dishes sound delicious. However, most of them have nothing to do with real Italian food... They are in the category that I like to call "what Americans think is Italian food" :tongue: Therefore, I will go with the pasta with marinara sauce. But please, no garlic: Another false Italian…
  • I'm sorry, I don't understand your point. Why do you need to weigh your pasta after it's cooked? If you cook for 4 people, you will cook 4 times one serving, no? What am I missing here?

  • Welcome to MFP!!! Feel free to add me if you like :flowerforyou: I also live in California and I find it somehow easier having at least a part of my friends in the same time zone :smile:
  • I noticed that the choice depends a lot from the country where you live. In Italy (I am Italian), it's absolutely not common to change your last name. I am not even sure it's possible. You have to go through millions of bureaucratic papers... It's a nightmare. I don't know any Italian woman that changed her last name. Not…
  • I have C25K Free. It's for free and I love it. It lets me also listening to my iPod while I practice! Have fun!
  • I do ashtanga yoga. And I think this pose is included... Even though, for sure, I am not able to do it :laugh: In any case, you don't do the same poses every time. After 6 months I'm going to yoga, I'm still discovering new poses... it also depends at what level you are :glasses: The important thing is to have fun!!!
  • Indeed, that's why I said that it should taste good!!! I'm very spoiled and picky with food, especially when it's Italian food (I'll blame my mother for that :tongue: ). But this might be a good solution for a lot of people that normally eat frozen pizza in any case. Furthermore, this might give a hint to other cooks to…
  • Sure, but not everybody has the time or the will to cook... so a more healthy choice available at the grocery store is always preferable :smile:
  • Welcome back!!!! I'm almost at my goal weight (only 3 pounds to go) and then I will start maintaining! I'm always in to receive and give extra support!!! Feel free to add me :flowerforyou:
  • I always weigh in every morning after using the restroom and I'll do it naked. I know a lot of people saying to weigh once per week because of fluctuations but I'm a scientist and I disagree. I weigh in every morning and then on Wednesdays (but you can choose any other day) I check in here on MFP my average weight for that…
  • Have you tried BeFitin90? You find it on youtube. I love it!!!
  • You guys did it together? That's awesome!!!! :smile: You really have something to be proud of!!!
  • Being an Italian girl moved to the US a couple of years ago, I've always struggled with friends and colleagues about GOOD food. They keep saying I'm spoiled :angry: So I ended up going for lunches and dinners with them and gaining 12 pounds in 3 months. It's taking me ages to lose those extra pounds and I'm only half way…
  • Awesome story!!!! Congratulations!!!
  • peanut butter and cucumber :sick:
  • I agree with the others, take picture before and after. They can be very motivating :smile: I will also suggest you to take your measurements. The scale can be tricky. You might lose fat and gain muscles. Result: the scale won't go down or will go down slowly. But measurements will tell. I lost 5 pounds so far (in 2…
  • Thanks for posting this!!!! I started as a rectangle 38-32-38 :grumble: and now I'm an hourglass 38-29-38 :glasses: You totally made my day :flowerforyou:
  • I'm going to get married some time soon. Still waiting for the engagement ring, but he started talking about having a baby next year. I think he's almost ready... I hope so! In the meanwhile I'm trying to lean out :smile: Feel free to add me :flowerforyou: and maybe someone wants to join this group…
  • Cereal first! On the other topic: bread slice #1 spread with AB on the left side of the cutting board, bread slice #2 spread with strawberry jam on the right side of the cutting board, fold the 2 slices on each other like closing a book! Enjoy!!! :wink:
  • I'm 5'3" and my goal is 110. But as long as I get rid off my fluffy belly, I'll be happy with any weight within 110 and 120 :smile: Feel free to add me if you want :flowerforyou:
  • On youtube there is also "Be Fit in 90 days"! And you have the possibility to run outside the house but you don't know how, I will definitely recommend C25K aka Couch-to-5K! They have a free app online that you can download and just listen to it.
  • You should tell her. But consider also this: Far distance relationship are very very difficult. Both of you have to be 100% committed! This doesn't want to discourage you, but I know what I'm talking about. It's not impossible, but it's hard!
  • *kitten* = Donkey :laugh:
  • Are you on a BC pill or similar? I started to lose my hair because of it (and gaining weight) and I discovered it's one of the most common side effects. However, since is not really considered a health issue, USDA doesn't ask pill companies to write it in the drug facts. Just my 2 cents!!! BTW, super congratulations for…
  • I love pic #2!!!! If I would have your leg, I will wear those shorts all day long every where :heart: (BTW, You gave my daily motivation to exercise today :flowerforyou: )
