  • Wow they really do look alike, don't they. Love me some Bradley Cooper :swoon:
  • Congratulations on your journey to recovery. Please see your doctor about this and do not, I repeat: DO NOT, rely on the advice of an internet forum to treat your disorder. No really. SEE YOUR DOCTOR!!!!! And good luck with the rest of your journey :)
  • @Erinelda - that happens to me too, with pineapple and peaches! My allergist says some fruits harbor pollen from surrounding trees or something and it can cause an allergic reaction. Be careful, because in some people continuing to expose yourself can cause anaphylaxis. I carry an epi pen because my Dr is worried haha
  • Yes, mixing it with water is fine*. *But it tastes better with milk! (At least mine does haha) Have you tried almond or soy milk? Sometimes those taste better. Also, like 3dogsrunning said, it depends on the brand you're using. I use Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein** **I don't drink it often - but it is…
  • 1999 Ford Escort ZX2 - (unnamed) 2000 VW Jetta VR6 - The Silver Bullet 2014 VW GTI Wolfsberg - The Dark Knight aka Bruce aka Master Wayne No idea why. It just happened. And I've had the last car for all of 7 days - we decided on the name on day 2 hahaha
  • *Note that I am not in any way discouraging what you're doing or trying to convince you not to do it* That being said haha I considered donating eggs a few years ago... my boyfriend and I decided it was best not to do it because there wasn't much research around about the long term effects of the hormones. We compared it…
  • Try any of the peanut butter flavors here: www.theoatmealartist.com I especially like the Salted PB/Chocolate Baked Oatmeal and the PB Cookie Baked Oatmeal. Deeee-lish! (And she's vegan, if that matters)
  • I'm 24.... I have a 122-day streak & am still going strong. I don't usually "complete" my diary (sometimes I'll do it the next morning), but I do log every day. I also pre-log most of the week on Sundays, and adjust according to the amounts I actually eat. Feel free to add me. Note that I'm not the best at initiating…
  • Hummus = pureed garbanzo beans = gas. Take a Beano and enjoy your hummus!!
  • In for PUPPIES!!!
  • I win -- 13 pages of recipes! That's actually a really good idea. It involves less dirty pots/bowls/containers than my method. Usually I keep MFP's recipe builder open as I'm cooking. I tare the pot+food on the scale, scoop out all the food into a large tupperware container or bowl. When I reach the end of the pot, my…
  • Swimming? Sorry, that's all I've got =/
  • [I know you're not the only person to comment on this, but you're the most recent so I quoted you.] Just want to point out here that "having an ED" and "having disordered eating" are NOT the same thing. Dan suggested that this person has disordered eating thoughts -- NOT the same thing as saying he has an eating disorder.…
  • I just started doing that this week. My library has an audiobook rental program where I can rent them through an app on my phone. I"m almost done my first! The way I've done it is told myself that I can *only* listen to the audiobook when I'm running. It's gotten me to run more this week than I have in all of my 24 years!
  • Since it's been so unbearably cold out, I've preferred to run indoors, on the treadmill. And I life weights in the gym as well. I walk my dog outside and commute to work walking, but even if it happens to add up to 30 minutes, I usually don't count those walks as exercise because I included them in my activity level. I use…
  • Cheaper than free? I'm confused. The link the OP posted was for a meal plan/ recipes that you make yourself not a paid service... edited for: html error
  • I posted about it when it was on MFP's sidebar a few months back (maybe February?) I started using it with their $5 sign-up bonus and haven't stopped yet. I don't use the GymPact feature, because my apartment's gym doesn't count and there's no way I'm paying for another gym when I have "free" use of one that fits my needs.…
  • hah. animal. You mean enamel.
  • Re the egg sandwiches: I make these all the time and freeze them! This is how I do it (I prefer fresh spinach if I use spinach, not sure how I'd approach freezing/cooking the spinach): Prep work: Cook eggs, let cool, and individually flash-freeze. Separate english muffins and individually flash-freeze. Individually…
  • Because she's your sister and you probably do want to spend time with her, even if it's at the mall, my suggestion is to bring a few non-perishable snacks with you. I frequently bring carrot sticks or pop-chips or portable fruit with me when I'm shopping. I have no shame in sitting down to eat it at the food court, whether…
  • I allllways make extra of whatever I make for dinner and have leftovers for lunch. But I stagger it so I'm not eating the same food 2 days in a row: Sat dinner --> Mon lunch Sun dinner --> Tues lunch Mon dinner --> Wed lunch Tues dinner --> Thurs lunch Wed dinner --> Fri lunch Thurs dinner --> Sat lunch I do this for…
  • HAHAHAHA OMG note: NSFW but incredibly hilarious.
  • http://www.ucsfhealth.org/education/calcium_content_of_selected_foods/ http://nof.org/articles/886 Both links contain charts of high-calcium foods.

  • OMG I get this with friends! If we all go out and I choose not to drink because I'm low on calories or just because I'm THIRSTY for water (haha) they all question if I'm pregnant. :noway: Just because I choose not to indulge in alcohol doesn't mean I'm pregnant! Sometimes I'm just not feelin' it, but I wanted to hang out…
  • Do people really type like that? I hate when people *talk* like that, but I never realized someone might *type* that way. Mind blown.
  • Happy 8000th post! Now you better get started on your 8000 day juice cleanse so you can get all ze thigh gapz :smile: :flowerforyou: In all seriousness, thanks for all of your hard work and help. I recommend your spreadsheet to everyone who will listen.
  • I am 5'3" and 121 lbs. I eat 1675+ per day, forget or don't make time to exercise very often, and am still losing .5lb per week. You're not eating enough. No way, no how. Edited to add: Check out this group (especially the stickied & locked posts) - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/8017-in-place-of-a-road-map
  • Try starting a group on meetup.com - or checking to see if there is one already.
  • I had to google angel wings... turns out they're what I call chruściki! We make them twice a year in my family, in batches of 15-20 DOZEN. Yes, 180-240 individual "cookies", deep fried in shortening. Twice per year. They are delicious though! And then the pastor's wife at my bf's Polish Catholic church makes them at…
  • Amazon! http://amzn.to/PAbuK8 <-- link to the product page that has a ton of size options.
