  • Just because your kid can't access certain content at home doesn't mean they can't access it elsewhere. My mom had parental controls on our computer at home until I graduated and left home... But it didn't take me long to figure out that my friend's mom didn't give a flying fornication about the browser history. So I just…
  • I got nothin', but I have a feeling I'm going to want to keep up with this thread. :laugh:
  • I do a yoga video once or twice a week... During and immediately after, I feel totally relaxed. The first few sessions made my muscles a little sore, but I think I was trying to push my body past its flexibility limits. If you don't want to invest money in a DVD or class, check out Namaste Yoga with Dr. Melissa West on…
  • I'm there Monday mornings... 4:30am, when everyone else is sleeping. You're welcome. :wink:
  • Have you tried this? http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/06/skinny-chicken-tikka-masala.html I could eat a whole batch of this stuff... Not exactly the same as restaurant-made, but it's pretty amazing. (You *could* eat the whole batch for under 800 calories, without rice. IJS :wink: )
  • My grandma wore this, too! My mom and I can't wear it... Our body chemistry makes it smell different. But one whiff of it immediately reminds me of my grandma.
  • This is embarassing... But Radiance by Britney Spears. Bought it on my honeymoon, and I puffy heart love it. ...Also, Pink Sugar by Aquolina... But you'll smell like delicious cookies all day. lol
  • -Peanut butter -Hot French fries -Fresh baked cookies -Hershey Kisses -Ice cold Coca-Cola (NOT diet or zero) in a tall glass with ice
  • By this time next year, I hope to be debt free, close to my goal weight, and ready to start a family with my husband!
  • Definitely see a doctor... Angular chelitis can also be caused by a vitiman B deficiency. I'm anemic, and take a daily iron supplement with a vitamin C supplement. I started on a "high" dose, and have gradually been decreasing my iron dosage under my doctor's supervision. Watch your caffeine intake with iron; caffeine can…
  • Tea! I typically make a cup of tea every afternoon between 2 and 3pm. I add a little sugar (or you could sub Splenda or whatever you like). You could even add a splash of milk for some added nutrients.
  • A cup of strawberries, 1/2 TBSP Hershey's chocolate syrup, and 1/4 cup of Cool Whip Free = 105 calories of deliciousness.
  • My go-to easy meal as of late is honey balsamic chicken... Season a chicken breast with some salt and pepper (or whatever you like), saute until cooked through in a little oil or butter. Remove from pan, and set aside. Add equal parts balsamic vinegar and honey to the pan (I usually do 2 TBSP of each for DH and I, but we…
  • I started WW last March to drop some weight before my wedding... By October, I'd lost 25 pounds. And then... I stopped losing. I tried a ton of different things to get the scale to move again, and had zero luck. The program just didn't work for me anymore. Plus, points tracking can be a PITA, even with WW's buggy iPhone…
  • I make eggs in muffin tins a lot... The re-heat in the microwave really well. Scramble some eggs (or use the liquid stuff), and mix in whatever veggies, meats, and cheeses you like. Pour into greased muffin tins, and bake until the eggs are set. Kind of like tiny little omelettes. Oatmeal, fruit and yogurt, egg sandwiches,…

  • Anyone can feel free to add me! I've been trying to be more active with my friends list, so I'd love some new people to interact with!
  • Zero caorie drinks (unsweetened tea, Coke Zero, water)... I usually don't even bother tracking my Crystal Light anymore. The calories are so few that it's just not worth the time it takes to type it all in. I don't track most vegetables... Unless it's a potato or sweet potato. That's a habit carried over from when I did…
  • My grandpa was a smoker... At 63, he was playing tennis 4 times a week, swimming daily, and riding his bicycle everywhere he went. He bowled and played basketball in his "free time." He could run circles around guys that were half his age. He died of small cell lung cancer as a result of his lifelong smoking habit. Yes he…
  • Kansas City... Northland. :)
  • I'm in the Northland, near-ish to Zona Rosa. Feel free to add me! :)
  • Request sent. :) Also looking for supportive MFP friends, so anyone can feel free to add me!
  • I took my first Zumba class last night, and I'm hooked! The hour seriously flew by, and I worked up quite a sweat! I have two left feet, and I'm not super active, but I was still able to keep up with the rest of the class. I can't believe I've spent so much time being bored to tears on the treadmill and elliptical! I'm…
  • Late to the party, but I'm in KCMO. Near Zona Rosa. :smile:
  • Hello! I'm Malaya, 25, from Kansas City, MO. (In the Northland, near-ish to Zona Rosa.) I'm looking to drop about 50 lbs., and generally improve my health so that I can have a happy healthy pregnancy! We are thinking of starting a family in the next 2-3 years. My husband and I got married in Oct. 2011, and I had dropped…
  • 5'10", currently 205, with a goal weight of about 150. I'm in Kansas City, MO. I weighed 135-140 in high school, and the pictures make me cringe. I look emaciated. :P Hoping 150 will be a good "stopping point", if I can ever get down there! It seems so far away sometimes.
