  • Some people look great natural they have the right face for it, the long eyelashes, perfect nose, nice skin etc. There are SOME that really could use a little makeup to bring out their good qualities. I say it never hurts to put a little paint on the ole barn.
  • When my kids were little i never had alcohol in the house at all. I didn't want them to think you had to have it to have a good time. I got divorced and where else do you meet people to socialize with limited planning? Your local bar. I will admit I started out with low things like Zima. I had to "graduate" as it were to…
  • We can be our own best friend or worst enemy. I know a girl that was always happy and cheerful. I asked her how she stayed that way. She said when she woke up every morning she tells herself,"Today, I choose to be happy." With your good attitude you will succeed! Good luck in your journey to good health!:wink:
  • I had the same problem. When I have the actual product to look at I take it from the box raw or dry. When I log things and not sure, I type in "cooked or boiled" and someone has already figured it out. I do that a lot with my pasta and rice. It used to be I would log in the rice at the amount I ate when it was cooked and…
  • I LOVE sesame seed oil!I love the nutty taste it has when I use it in cooking (like stir fry) It is soo expensive here in the stores, never thought about going on Amazon to see if I can get it cheaper. Did't know about the benefits either! Thanks for the info!
  • First of all don't go to the store hungry so you won't pick up the "junk". Good news is you can have that chocolate shake, but lean it up with either skim milk,low fat yogurt I hear skinny cow ice cream is good instead of chocolate syrup use Hershey's cocoa powder and add truvia if its not sweet enough.You can add fruit in…
  • As far as the scotch short bread I am with ya I cannot say no ,so I looked it up after i made some in 2 round cake pans pressed it out almost like a cookie) to take to work. a 2"x2" isn't as bad as you think. I ended up with 2"x1" square and its 120 cal. The fat content is the biggest thing because of the butter, the sugar…
  • There is a lady that comes to my shop and started WW about 2 weeks after I started MFP. She has lost 49 pounds where I not so much, but she walks every day. The thing I noticed, she has flab in her belly and arms. I think I don't mind the slower rate and weights. I WILL say she was probably more motivated because she had…
  • A gorilla escaped from the local zoo and had climbed up a tree and would not comedown. The local police found him there and called the zoo keeper to come get him. When he showed up , he brought with him a bulldog, a pair of handcuffs and a shot gun. "Whats with all the stuff you brought?" "Well, said the zoo keeper," I'M…

  • Ya its kinda like EWWWW ha hah hahha
  • knock knock who's there? "BOO" "BOO WHO?" Well ya don't have to cry about it
  • I agree! My daughter -in-law told me that my son was so shy and wouldn't talk, (Hes better now in his older years) She broke up with him because of it for awhile. She said "How is a person supposed to try to get to know someone if they don't talk?" Needless to say 15 years later and three kids, because of her outgoing…
  • some women look great with the grey, some, look old and washed out. As a cosmetologist of 35 years i recommend you go to a professional(one you trust and doesn't just want to do it for the money) and get a professional opinion. Even with semi permanent color your hair shaft collects and holds the color, only less of it…
  • wow you eat a lot of food! What is your work out program to stay thin and still eat the way you do? I would love to eat as much as you do and be where you are! I I always look at successful peoples diaries to see if I can learn from them on how to eat and the types of programs they are following. Were you heavy at one…
  • I guess to remind yourself you are getting enough..sometimes we are not aware that we are dehydrated.

  • Go all the way! fill out the rest of your profile, why you want to lose weight etc, use your diary, add friends all are on here for support because we all need it! As far as being scared of a diet, you should be MORE scared of the diabetes. My late husband refused to eat right when his blood sugar came on and I watched him…
  • give her a before date call have a little chat and see what her interests are and what she likes..I remember one date I had the fella asked me if I liked to dance I said sure! he said he would pick me up at such and such time. I thought we were going dancing so I bought a fancy dress and heels. When he arrived,I ended up…
  • they now have a music pod that is small and thin as a size of a pack of matches. (It might be smaller) get the ear wires that hook around your ear. It can fit anywhere on your person even your shirt pocket. My girlfriend got one and I was amazed at the sound it gave for such a little device it was like stereo!
  • ask your stylist about the new "water fall braid"Google it. its beautiful for long hair. I had the pleasure to do a few half up and down dos' last week at our shop except using the wavy style curls and pulled back on the sides with a "bumpit" on top they loved it. Another one that is nice is to pull back the hair in three…
  • WHOO I DO DECLARE! (taking out my little fan and waving it in front of my blushing face) I may be married, but I ain't dead! Never really noticed before, but you girls are right! There are a few hotties on here. course I am old enough to be their grandmother. Still nice to ponder on though lol:love: :blushing:
  • I have read tea has more caffein than coffee course you could make it weaker I guess, as you could coffee,but would miss the taste.
  • NOOOO!!!! Don't take away my coffee! I love espresso shots in it, coffee beans in chocolate YUMMMM ( a rare treat) seriously I have associated coffee with breakfast and that's where i limit it. there are other things that can give you true energy. When you feel in a slump drink more water or eat an apple. I tried it…
  • love this am putting in my topics. Thanks!
  • I started taking trace liquid minerals. In orange juice, not too horrible. A Little coffee and breakfast and with in an hour Its time to go. they are bitter so orange juice helps with the taste (about 1/4 oz.) Some days I shudder afterwards but I know they are good for me and really help. Remember Cod liver oil? Same…
  • I continue to lose weight and still drink once or twice every 2 weeks. That day was planned as a low cal day. The sugar content goes over, but I still lose. It takes longer though. After drinking, for me, its "eat anything" ravenous time. so I account for that too. I may eat fast foods like taco bell chalupa,or fried…
  • a poor share cropper hit the lotto.He asked his wife what is the one thing she always wanted. She said a milk bath like the rich ladies have. He went to the local dairy and asked for milk so he could get it for his wife's milk bath. The clerk asked him how much he wanted . the share cropper replied, "I don't know, a few…
  • I have the same problem.Keep upping and lowering my cals,watching nutrients (salt and sugar intake) I almost gave up when in two months had not lost a thing . I started picking up more days on excersise and low and behold I started to lose. I carry most of my weight in the middle so strength excersises added to the walking…
  • Is this all for real?
  • The rain pounded the windshield blaring my song as I drove back to Kansas to see my aunt, her voicmail fresh in my mind. Unfortunately, lights up ahead. In the distance, I saw a shimmering light past the tower of Evans discount BBQ and nail Salon. Even if she hadn't said "Give me your money" pull the car over baby and lets…
