I've used Ritz crackers instead of breadcrumbs in meatloaf - not healthy, but HEAVENLY flavor!

You don't have to log calories, but you can still eat sensibly. Restaurant fare: bfst - egg beater vegetable omelettes, lunch-salads with grilled chicken, etc. dinners - grilled seafood, ckn, etc. at the in-laws house - same thing lots of fruits and veggies, almonds and popcorn for snacking, stay away from creamy sauces…

Maybe this will help - If Jen's fiancee was in love w/ two women, would she marry him or would she want him to figure out who he wants to be with? I don't want to be with someone who is thinking about someone else. And what happens 2-3-5 years from now when there is a big argument or issues? Is Jen going to run to the…

Although I am not a guy, it seems that being fun, sense of humor, easy going, smart, not clingy, and secure with yourself - and of course take pride in your appearance - isn't it the same for both sexes? And good/fun in the sack.....

Men need to know their place and its always in the wrong. But, saying that, as long as a guy remembers two things then there will be peace and harmony for ever. 1) A woman is always right 2) In case of dispute or misunderstanding, refer to Rule 1 The above is so condescending. We're not always right, but if we are - we…

Jay_Jay - did you read all the comments from people with diabetes that can eat that pasta? It really doesn't sound like a scam to me.

I looked up 'frozen chest" and it discussed COPD issues - what in the world is frozen chest?

First, I am sorry that you are upset that this person deleted you from their friend list. If this was someone that you were friends with outside of myfitness, then yes, you have every right to be hurt. However, if that is not the case, I am confused by how upset you are. If you get this hurt by someone you don't even know,…

Why don't you "play" along. "I already had a donut", I ate a donut on my way into work, no I'm not only eating toast - but don't elaobrate. As long as you are going to play into his "mean game", he will continue to bother you. Change your response and act like it doesn't bother you.

My dad did until he remarried and the new wife (I was 8 when they got married) got very jealous....To this day I don't understand why he didn't stand up to her and why she was jealous.....and no I can't ask now because he passed away from cancer. I did try to discuss with my stepmother but she got angry - conversation went…

As you (should) know by now, our God is a loving God! I pray that your husband will realize that he has a beautiful wife and family and will learn to treat you with respect. Is your husband also jealous of the lord? Because according to the Bible, arent' you the bride of Christ and you are supposed to put him above all…

If you are afraid he will argue at your reunion and you are constantly "avoiding" commericals, etc. isn't he being manipulative? Keeping you from friends is the start of an abusive relationship. He is isolating you from others. He really needs more help than church bible study. If he is "hiding" the problems - that is more…

I see that you state in your profile that you struggle w/portion control. This might be because on your busy days you don't eat so the following day or day after that, you are ravenous and over eat. Part of the issues might be this inconsistant food consumption.

she is 5'3"

I think that given the choice of working out vs. not working out, I would work out....

Congratulations! That is a huge milestone.

I own a pool, but go to the gym 3 times a week to attend bootcamp classes. I work much harder in those bootcamp classes than I do swimming. Go for the gym - I think you'll push yourself harder and build friendships because everyone will be pushing themselves and tend to talk about the class - thus making you feel more…

Unfortunately, because of your age, you will be taken off of this site. Good luck with your weight loss.

I read that the treadmill calorie burn is based on a 150 lb person. If you weigh less than that, you will be burning a lot less calories than what the treadmill is giving you. But, to be more accurate, a monitor is necessary.

How do you figure muscle weighs more than fat? Muscle is denser, and more compact, but a lb is a lb.

I use sugar free syrup or blueberries and vanilla protein mix

Hello - I'm a little concerned regarding the amount of calories you're consuming and the amount of exercising you're doing. It is not healthy. On top of that you exercised for over 9 hours on Saturday! Please be careful. It is good to be healthy, but this seems obsessive.

Teriyaki Sauce - only marinate meat 1.5 hours or less!! 1/3 cup Soy sauce 1/3 cup sugar 1/3 cup olive oil 1/3 cup wine 3-4 cloves chopped garlic 1/2 inch piece of fresh ginger or 1 tablesppon ground ginger combine and marinate meat for about 1 hour (after marinating, discard remaining marinate) Delicious I make chicken…

Maybe cut down on the sweets?

Are you accepting any blame? If she tells others your business, then don't tell HER. I also though it sounded VERY rude that you point out that she can keeep re-reading your letter until she gets it. Is she pointing out your weight because she is worried about you? Is she over-weight? If not, is it an insecurity issue on…

I wasn't able to lose weight until I stopped eating processed foods. Maybe if you cut down on the processed foods, you might see better results? Good luck.

I have a scale that shows body fat %. I, too, was wondering if it was accurate. The trainer at my gym measured my fat % and my scale was higher by .5. So I now use the fat % on my scale as an estimate.

I use vitamin E oil - swear by it!! I wash my face, put it on and then take a shower - people are constantly commenting on my skin.

Ignore my exercise question - I realize you do. Regarding sugar - did you know that your small McDonalds smoothie contains 49g of sugar??? That is an awful lot. Are all of your smoothies homemade or bought? Unfortunately, if you are not making these items, you can't control the ingredients. Too much sugar is a disaster for…
