I kept his name, for the sake of the kids. No matter what kind of father he is or isn't, he is still their father. We divorced when they were small- 4,2, 6 mos, and I thought it would be easier for them to not have to explain all the different names. This was about 20 years ago and on the east coast in a conservative…

NO- the pie filling has spices, sugar and I think eggs all ready added.....

I was at girl scout camp, they woke us up and dragged us down to the mess hall to watch it on a 24" TV...300 of us, I was in the back...it was all pretty fuzzy!

I remember eating paste in kindergarten....the kind that came in a jar with a scooper attached to the lid...Yummy!!!

The TV got 2,4 and 7 in Buffalo , but if the wind was right we could get 9 and 11 out of Toronto....after we played with the roof top antenna and smacked the set....when the Sabres were the Bisons.....

Also a 12 hr night shift ICU RN who flips back to "normal" sleep patterns on my days off- with irregular and often no breaks, eating at work is a challenge. I pack high protein snacks and small meals and aim to eat 4-5 times daily. Some days extra sleep means no time to eat, but often the day before I had an extra meal or…

There are not many teens who are happy with their bodies...this is a time of comparison and criticism unfortunately. Perhaps find the things in her that are beautiful and help her to focus on those?

I am sorry for your loss......

it is incredible to find out what you have been eating for all these years and thought you were making good choices....

a dip with greek yogurt and spicy brown mustard!!

I needed to make radical changes in the way I was eating- it was a challenge, but after 2 weeks, I really didn't miss the processed carbs and junk. Now after 40 days, when I am hungry, I am hungry for healthy protein and good carbs like beans and yogurt. I switched to a South Beach type plan- limited carbs and very limited…

I had one of those mornings, came home from work and hadn't eaten enough, and made bad choices. Drinking lots of water and back on track in the morning, all ready made a chicken salad for tomorrow to help me make better choices!

got into a pair of scrubs last night that I haven't been able to wear in 18 months!

Glad to see you here!

Good morning- new to MFP, and Leslie but loving both! Just did a quick 1 mile after working a 12 hr night- trying to fit in working out with my work schedule has always been a stumbling block. Even thought I got out an hour late today, I still pulled out a faith walk and will take a quick bath, then some zzz's. My goal for…

2 miles today to "A Closer 2 mile walk" and thinking I will really feel it in the morning!
