Sounds Tasty! Bump!

We may or may not have had a similar incident with sweet chili sauce. We had to individually pop off each key on the entire key board and clean them very well using various q-tips, paper towels, rubbing alcohol, etc. That stuff is really sticky and spreadout all over the keyboard. eta: q-tips work really well :)

I'm making chili at the moment with a hunk of beef :d It also has all kinds of spices, onions, garlic, bell pepper, tomato, carrot, and butternut squash.

I ate a medium pizza today plus some dessert pizza. I had been craving it for at least a week and it was spectacular.

What I've done when I don't drive myself (where I cook and pack everything for the entire week and bring it with me), is try to find packaged food for two of three meals and make decent choices for the other meal. I brought tuna, crackers, cereal or oatmeal, protein bars, apples, etc in my luggage. I had some success at a…

haha yes!! at 195 Ive probably just jogged up that nasty hill in my neighborhood as fast as I could go! GAH that hill sucks!

I was told awhile back that I was losing weight too easily (so there MUST be something wrong with me) and that my heart rate was too high. This particular person scared me so I went to get a slew of heart tests, including a 24 hour monitor thingy. Turns out I just run high and getting up to 135 just walking was ok for me.…

We cook a half a bag of dried beans with an onion (quartered), several cloves of garlic, dash of veggie oil, chicken stock, and some sausage. Cover beans/stuff with the stock (could also use veggie stock, or part water/part stock, whatever). You could not use sausage also. Cook on low for a while until they are done, a few…

Because of having to fly to my work assignment for the past two weeks and this next week, I'm having to eat out 2-3 meals a day. Basically one of the only things I can make work with the few calories I have, and still have enough for an afternoon snack, is grilled chicken salad or chicken breast and veggies. I now gag at…

We have three large-ish dogs, and we feed one of Wellness kinds right now. We order from Amazon and get a discount for having a monthly delivery, which is AWESOME. They get an raw egg and shell once or twice a week, raw veggies, chicken trimmings, etc. We also give them Kong toys stuffed with nonfat yogurt, shredded apple,…

Me! Watching the marathon all day :D

I'm also doing the 100 pushup challenge. I'm on week 3 (again because day 2 was just too hard for my liking). I did 25 on my last fitness test! eta: I cant say I enjoy them per say, but I enjoy being able to do more and feeling stronger.

Last time I found that could gain 10 pounds a month.

I wish we had the time and energy to do this for our pups (and ourselves!). I'm impressed!

We have three. When I'm home on the weekends they get an hour jog/walk. During the week, about 30 minutes. They also get play time outside with a ball or frisbee. If we skip a day or two, its extremely obvious and good reminder of why they need the exercise!

You can scope it all out one serving (whether its a cup or whatever you want) at a time into another bowl and then dump it all back into the crock pot or leave it in a serving dish or something. I usually take my giant silver bowl, put it on the food scale, tare it out, and weigh the entire dish I'm making. Messy,…

yup I sure do drive a stick! Right now its a 6-speed accord coupe. Its my preference for sure!

I 2nd (or 3rd or whatever) slowing down your pace. I found if I tried to keep up with my husband, I can go..maybe a minute? But if I go at my own (very slow) pace, then I can jog for much much longer. Right now I'm trying to up my distance, speed comes later.

you have more workout clothes in the laundry than work clothes you want to shop for more work out clothes than anything else, I'm a little excited about buying cold weather running gear. you get excited about new tan lines. I kinda look like a road map right now. you name and talk to all the neighborhood dogs on your route…

The Descent. Gory but very scary psychologically (to me at least, I dont do scary darkness, claustrophobia type things). I left bruises on my husband's arm. Plus theres a 2nd one thats awesomely cheesy!

When we go eat into a place without posted calorie counts, I just choose a good estimate from the list. With Wings it should be super super easy. I'm kind of jealous because wings are good :D If you want, you could pick a few and take the most average one. edit: I didnt answer your question. For me, this is supposed to be…

We definately have similar goals and I also have ashtma and allergies. I get allergy shots, take the standard allergy/asthma meds. Ive found the longer I can job (right now working on distance over speed) and the more weight I lose, the less my asthma affects my jogging. Though, I've not seen improvement in my day-to-day…

I'm in Birmingham :D
