Rainbow Dancing!!! Yay!!!! :drinker:

Keep your chin up and keep trying. I can honestly say from personal experience that its the meds. At one point due to a certain situation I was consuming maybe 600 cal a day if I was lucky, but then the bi-polar meds I was on changed and all of a sudden I started packing on the weight like crazy. Even at 600 calories a…

I'm a white drinker all the way. I like the sweetness. The only way I can drink red is if I've already been drinking or if I throw fruit into it to make it Sangria! That said, I know there are a few white wines listed here on MFP as far as calories etc go. (I know this because I make sure to track them in my calories when…

I'd have to be a total B**ch with that one, hand him a $20, and say "You Win" while walking away. Of course, then I'd have to figure out how to make up that $20 that was probably going to be gas money or food or soemthing, but it'd be worth it.
-
nice. I'd pay attention to that one to. Though then knowing me I'd get over-analytic and wonder how long it took him to perfect that or what soap opera he heard it on or if he was reading cosmo or something. *laugh* my old standby is a cheesy one: Do you believe in love at first sight? Or should I walk by again?

Add me! lol. My FB is in my profile. Unfortunately, I tend to want to snack most when I am just screwing around on the internet. If I give in I try and keep it to the veggies or salads or something. Tonight it was peas. I tend to make sure I leave calories at night because I know I wll nibble while playing around on the…

not sure about that, but back when I had a personal trainer he said drinking crystal light or the like was just as good as drinking water. I put one tub in a gallon of water each day of the wal-mart brand of such and it works well because plain water is jsut sooo... boring!

I've seen people on here that have pics of that but I always figured that it was from like Wii Fit or some other weightloss video game thingy. :/
-
so I am a 'every-time-I-am-in-the-potty' weigh-er, and usually by the end of the day I am up 3-5lbs from the morning depending on sodium or alcohol intake, ;) but yeah, I take my daily weight from my morning weigh-ins. :) I like those numbers better. Even my start weight here was a morning weigh-in tho so that I would be…

100 calorie snack packs and pickles - if you're working you probably need portability so the snack packs would help out with that.
-
ooops - I entered this thread thinking there was some vegetarian alternative to jello and was really excited. :) But, for non-vegetarians, I did find some interesting recipes on cooks.com, such as http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,1632,150164-247198,00.html

The LC site can be a pain, but if you go to the individual dinner's tab there is the nutrition info there... but its just the basic kinda info. The only real way to figure all the portions out would be to individually weight them and go by their individual calories/sugars/etc e.g. look up cinnamon apples in the database…

just wanted to mention be careful with the yogurt if you're a Veg - a lot of yogurts out there have gelatin in them. Be sure to read ingredients to make sure they use pectin instead of gelatin. That said, I tend to only use plain yogurt when mixing it with something else to replace sour cream. By itsself - it ends up with…
-
I don't eat meat, but cook it for the boys in the house, My little bro brought tilapia about a month ago for me to cook for them all and i think I made the healthiest dinner I have ever made them, lol,. I backed mine @ 350 for about 10 min, seasoned with lots of garlic, onion powder, salt, pepper, parsley, oregano, and…
-
That would include me! I'm looking to lose the 80lbs I've gained since I lost my job. Y'all feel free to add me! :)
-
I did it as a jump start kind of then eased into eating regular foods back 5 years ago. All in all I lost 60 lbs in a matter of months and kept it off for about 4 years. I love it, I would do it again in an instant, I just can't afford it these days. Its just a way of caloric restriction with super high protein and low…
-
I understand your pain - we live on dollar-store food these days here so eating right is difficult. Especially when you're a vegetarian like I am. I go to a local flea/farmers market once a week for lots of cheap fresh veggies. there are a lot of migrant farmers in my area that bring out tons of good veggies for low prices…
-
{{{{{HUG}}}}}} I have those days. I battle depression so I tend to have a lot of those days, lol. Just get through this day and try and refocus the next day. I tend to sometimes have a 'F-it' or "why even bother day' and then end up screwing up a whole week. But I've learned to just be ok with the screwed up day and then…
-
the only thing I could think of when I saw this thread.... Why did the blonde snort Sweet n Low? because she thought it was diet coke. BWAAAHAAAHAAHAA Ok, sorry. My apologies to anyone offended. Back to your regularly scheduled discussions.
-
I'm glad I found this thread to read. I get 'uncomfortable' at times in other threads where the users are only 150-something pounds and looking for like a 20 lbs wight loss. Not that everyone here on MFP isn't awesome and stuff, but like.. for me, 150lbs is a good weight, lol! Reading about all y'all here puts things back…
-
I stumbled across this thread accidentally and wow, it really explains a lot! I had just been diagnosed with ovarian cysts (one was twice the size of my ovary itsself) and had begun treatment for them and was supposed to go back for a check up to see if there were multiple-cysts when I lost my insurance due to lay-off. I…
-
I take the buffalo wings to parties with bleu cheese dressing but don't tell people they are vegetarian. No one knows the difference until they see me actually eating them, lol.
-
I *love* Zip Fizz, I used to get them all the time from Costco from their sample girl in trade for what I was sampling, lol. But I can't afford them now. :(
-
I've been taking sub-lingual B12 tabs for almost a week now (Wal-Mart, $5, lol) and while I don't know about weight loss, I do know I get extra energy from them, so thats a definite plus in my book!
-
I love a nice firm tofu in a buddah's delite type stirfry, or on the grill with seasoning. MMMM MMM
-
For me it does - I use high protein shakes for breakfast and lunch and save a good portion of my calories for dinner. The other night I was actual able to have fettuccine alfredo. :) What works FOR ME - and I stress the for me part because everybody is different - is I don't prevent myself from having something, I just…
-
The only thing I have found to work for me is caloric-limiting. I've battled with thyroid issues my entire life and even on medication wasn't having any luck. Then I read about something called The Thyroid Diet where you pretty much (summary version) find the total number of calories your body can take before it starts…
-
i eat mine with garlic salt on them, but they always make me HUNGRIER than I was before eating them. :(
-
Thanks guys. Yeah, I wish I could get out, but right now its my day to take care of grandma (she's 97 and in the beginning stages of alzheimers) so if I do try and sneak out for a walk I barely make it through the door before I'm needed again. :ohwell: And the house is loaded with bad for me foods because I haven't been…
-
It really depends on the person. mine have always stayed... ther. However the band size on my bra changes - from say a 44-DD to a 36-DD (and back and forth, lol). I had a personal trainer tell me they wer going to get smaller and I was almost excited, thiniing I might actually get to wear a haltar top some day. He was…
