Yeah you rock for sure!:smile:

I'd be interested to know how they flavor it and how healthy that turns out to be. The mixing with jello to make pies definitely sounds tastier to me. :smile:

Yeah. I saw Food Inc. It was very informative. It's still playing at some of the "older movie/dollar theatres"- Thanks for the post! :smile:

Casper, I wouldn't say that you lost "a little"- there is a big difference in those pics! Claim it! Good job. :smile:

Yeah. Huge John Hughes fan. Bummer:brokenheart:

Speaking of the dog on the scale- congrats to you for getting him/her there! My dog won't even get on it at the vet. Monkey See Monkey Do I guess. :laugh: Ps. Thanks for the recipe too. I make this alot, but your version is a little different. I just might give it a whirl.

Well It depends, you have maybe 7 weeks, at two pounds a week- it's almost feasible. It will depend on how much you have to lose, and how much of a change you are making. Often folks who make a radical change and have more to lose see a bigger, quicker initial loss. Work for it- in a healthy way, and if you make it…

The way I've always seen it is that certain breads are included in the calories, and only certain veggies. So my veggie delite sandwhich numbers include white or wheat bread, lettuce, tomato, onion, green peppers, and maybe one other veggie. I would guess that the sandwhich numbers include bread, but only a few vegetables,…

Good Question. Wish I had the answer for you. I guess, the best I've got is that Dairy has been a staple in the American diet, well, a long long time. We don't have a lot of great habits, but considering it's been around soooo long, I wouldn't imagine it could be too terrible for us. it's true that alot of other countries…

I'm not particularly happy with the pill either. It seems my symptoms start a little earlier than one would suspect, so give it time, maybe it'll turn out just to be PMs. Jstar513- hope all continues to go well and those tests have nothing but good news. :flowerforyou:

I like: Rattatoulie (likely not spelled correctly) - Just slice eggplant, zucchini, green peppers, tomatoes, and onion (if you like) layer in a pan, drizzle lightly with olive oil, cover and bake at a low heat for about an hour. Delish. I also make a nice rice pilaf that has chickpeas, green onions, carrots, mushrooms, and…

Update on the Naturally More, the person earlier was right. It's pretty darn yummy. I approve. :happy:
-
Ummm... I'm not sure you gained 4.5 in one splurge. Wowza- must've been a big splurge :wink: , some folks on here know how many extra calories you would have to eat to gain 4.5 pounds, I don't tho.... Perhaps there was a water weight situation. That happens to the best of us. But hey, congrats on the loss you did achieve.…

Jiff's alright, but I thought I would say it before someone else- some of the oils in the Jiff (Rapeseed, for one) scare some folks. Just thought I'd put it out there for ya. :smile:

Most days I eat two pieces of healthy life bread and 1.5 tablespoons of PB for my lunch. I just got this "Naturally More" PB that has egg whites and flax seed, I'll let you know how it tastes. :wink:

I guess my two cents is that everything in life is a cost-benefit analysis. What are the pros and cons? For some a diet soda pro is that it's not a regular soda or a fat and sugar filled coffee product. Maybe the cons are the artificial sweeteners, or the monetary cost, or whatever it is for you. And maybe the pros…

You can also make Tortillas at home. I got a decent recipe from a bread cook book one time- just flour, water and salt, I believe- but you can always try the internet.

Like others have said, you are doing alot of things right!! You are seeking support which is awesome, and it sounds like you are self-aware and that is very very helpful. If meds help, there is no reason to be ashamed of taking them. Hang in there, and don't hesitate to seek help from a professional if you feel like it…

I would also suggest looking into some mindful eating- mindful eating is a part of a lot of mindfulness courses, and is probably pretty accessible on line. I say this because imho, when I really think about what I am eating, and how it tastes, I enjoy healthier, smarter foods than when I just stuff something in my mouth. I…

That is really super!! :happy:

Lil' off topic, but I'm in Psych Grad School and some of our professors who work with folks who have clinical Obessive Compulsive Disorder will eat food off the floor, and do other amazingly risky germy things as they have had so much practice doing such things in the treatment of their clients. It's interesting to watch…

Yeah! That rocks! You're out there getting it done! Whoop Whoop!:happy:
-
I'm not done, but I"m working through the C25k and I agree with what everyone else has said. Never ran in my life, I really like it now. It certainly gives a sense of accomplishment. I take a day or so off in between. The podcast I listen to suggests 3 days each week, so usually I go Monday, Thursday and Saturday. So far…

I'm called goose- because when I was as young as I can remember up until like 7 or so, I used to love to sit on my grandparent's porch on their concrete goose they used to dress up. I'm also called noots but there is no good reason- my cousin just made that one up. I'm called bethers- my best friend and I in high school…
-
Yeah. I don't know about this corn syrup stuff- It just seems unnatural to me. I'm not a genius or food engineer, but I'd prefer to eat stuff that I know what it is- like ingredients that I know what they really are...I mean I guess corn syrup is syrup made from corn...but it seems strange, why hasn't it been around for…

How I Met Your Mother (affectionately called HIMYM) Lost Greys Anatomy NFL- Colts Fan (Husband likes the Pats. and I cheer for the Steelers when they aren't up against one of our teams). We also usually watch The Big Bang Theory because it comes on after HIMYM and sometimes we catch what ever is on after lost, and I like…

I'm one of those veggie heads now, but my family eats the meat that my Father in Law kills- we think it's good meat and food should never go to waste. I ate it until I became a pescatarian again. I totally respect hunters, especially those who eat their kills. It is a better way to get meat than to buy something that was…

Hey That's certainly something! Way to Go!:happy:
