Where I am now: We reach the Great East Road and follow it east toward Bree. The Road wasn't in the best repair when Frodo, Sam, Merry and Pippin jogged along this way on their ponies. "It was rutted and bore many signs of the recent heavy rain; there were pools and potholes full of water." I'm at 124.4 and may have to…

Okay...I made it this morning for myself and my kid. She had chocolate chunks (I use Lindt 85% dark) and I had raisins...so freaking tasty! All I can say is that this is my new favorite breakfast!!! My daughter even asked if she could have it again for dinner, lol.

And do you know the reason iodine was originally added to salt? It's not needed...we at least in the majority of the US do not need it added to our salt because we absorb it from foods grown in soil that is already naturally iodine rich.

Sea salt has a better flavor so you use less and it also contains trace minerals that are beneficial. Okay...as for the OP- use fresh mint or melon in your water. Herbal teas will also count to your water content since there is no caffeine. If you do not subscribe...I highly recommend picking up Clean Eating Magazine or…

I was in Culinary class (10th grade) and at first I thought that it was an accident...then when second tower was hit panic shot through my body. We watched live coverage of the second tower and then them collapsing. My second thought was that my soon to be brother in law would be deployed. I knew that if this really was an…

Music! It depends on why I feel down? Am I upset with my job/life situation? -I Hate My Life by Theory Of A Deadman Am I pissed at the ex for not paying child support? - So What by Pink Is it just a general funk? - American Honey by Lady Antebellum Am I upset with my body image? - Who Says by Selena Gomez There is a song…

FYI: that nasty liquid is whey. You know...the stuff you pay gobs of money for in protein shakes, lol.
-
I can't eat the typical stuff...the yoplait, the dannon...anything like that makes me gag. I even tried the dannon greek style and it was horrid! I love Fage and Chobani...plain! Or with a small drizzle of honey. I will never again try to eat the liquidy, faux flavored, chalky crap again...blech.

Truly doesn't matter. I've dated both types....Chewy fuzzy and totally clean shaven/waxed. It depends on the man. Mind you...there are parts that need to be groomed on a regular basis. Lol. *edit- the man I'm dating shaves everything but his goatee. He's into running, biking, and Brazilian ju jitsu on competative…

I usually take my own...however there are times I don't and that's fine...I use them for poop bags with the dogs or they carry wet clothes from being at the lake or even taking my left over stale bread to the park to feed the ducks. Plastic gets recycled in this house...always.

I always get my PB there because I can grind it myself and it's super fresh.

This is my current play list and I love it! Taylor Swift- Mean Christina Agulera- Fighter Pink- So What Selena Gomez- Who Says Toby Keith- American Soldier Christina Perri- Arms Fall Out Boy- Dance Dance The Black Eyed Peas- I Gotta Feeling Taio Cruz- Dynamite Andy Grammer- Keep Your Head Up Theory Of A Deadman- Hate My…

I spend around $100 a week on myself, my daughter, and 3 dogs. I buy local, fresh, and do not buy more than we can eat. This also includes any paper products, cleaning supplies, dog food...ect. I love the farmers market and I use coupons as often as I can. If possible grow as much produce as you can, become friends with a…
-
Aww...Tas...I'm happy that you finally got to do that! I use Nature's Gate as they are cruelty free, organic, and do not use sulfites/sulfates or alcohols which can be drying. *edit- I only wash my hair every 2-3 days. I'll use conditioner everyday. Check out my pics...I have one of me from when my hair was down to my…

I'd rather use my natural fresh ground from Whole Foods than something that's been processed. Calories aren't a big deal to me...it's about it being natural and wholesome. I can easily eat up to 2,000 cals a day and be just fine...and on my frame...I'm trying to bulk up.
-
Asparagus tarts Mini cheese and spinich quiches Crackers...homemade of course. I make some very tasty cheese straws that are fairly low cal. If you do want to bake...make black bean brownies...so tasty, low fat, low cal, low sugar and are amazing.
-
This sounds so tasty. I'll omit the sugar/sugar substitute and I'll maybe swap raisins for the chocolate chips.
-
Bump. My daughter is almost 8 and I still can't get rid of the pouch. My abs actually split, my innie became an outie, and I have more stretchmarks than a zebra has stripes. I think a tummy tuck is in my future. I am very tiny but still very selfconcious of my stomach. *EDIT- I thought I'd share this with everyone....…

The guy I'm dating has a bit of grey in his goatee...he's 36 and it looks good. Ironically...you look a lot like him, lol. I have a pic of him in my profile.

My ex-MIL is known as Nanny. Funnily enough because everyone has the 'y' added to the end of the 'name'...you know...mommy, daddy, nanny...ect. My ex FIL became Poppy because my daughter thought he should be called Poppy instead of Papa.
-
Fage and Chobani are the only two I like. I buy both plain and will add 1/2 a teaspoon on honey per cup of yogurt. Fage has the best flavor but Chobani has an additional 3 bacteria which gives it a slightly more sour taste.
-
Pretty boy...I was married to the badass type and he truly was an *kitten*. 11 years with him and all I got out of it was a beautiful daughter....he f'ed up everything else in my life. At the moment...I have a guy that seems to be a good combo...I'm hoping he's a bit more on the pretty boy side.
-
Bump. I'm looking for a good HRM as well.
-
One of mine is in my signature. I adore Dean Karnazes and he is such an inspiration.

Greek yogurt with berries. Scrambled tofu PB on whole wheat toast (you can find some good low carb bread if you really look) Protein shake...just watch out for artifical flavors, sugars, and colors. I use Vega and it's wonderful. I blend two scoops with 1/2 cup greek yogurt and 1/2 cup of milk and a small banana...so tasty…
-
I use less than 1/2 a teaspoon for a full cup of yogurt. I don't like my foods to be too sweet. Lol.
-
I always buy plain...and either add fruit or honey. When I can't afford the fruit I use the honey...and a jar lasts me for months. I also get it from a local bee keeper and it's helped my allergies a whole lot.
-
I'm 4'11" but I always just say I'm 5'. I'm at 90 pounds which is ideal for my small frame size...I still have some T&A going on, so I'm happy. I'm trying to actually gain 5-7 pounds of muscle at the moment. I'm eating around 1500 cals a day and of course I eat back 85% of my excersize cals.
-
I plan on wearing whatever looks good on me as I age. I plan on it being tasteful however. It's one thing to wear a mini that's almost to the crotch and another that's only an inch above the knees. Even though I'm 26 I still dress fairly 'matronly'...I had my daughter at 18...so I don't show my stomach. I do love showing…

If you want it short...go for it! Talk to your stylist and make sure that the cut you want will work for your hair type. Depending on thickness and texture short hair either works well or looks horrid. I haven't had super short hair all over...I did have part of my head shaved at one point and it looked good. I however…
