I'm not new, but anyone can add me.

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted) mixed with the juice of 1 whole lemon. Mix in a large amount of minced garlic, I use the jarred kind. Spread on the cod. I use the 1 lb frozen fillet bags from Meijer. Then generously cover in chili powder and onion powder. Bake at 350 for 20 mins or so. Serve with veggies of various…

purple cow popsicles and graham crackers are my nightly sweets these days. I try to always leave some room for one or the other (sometimes both.)

I love it when you people fight. It's like Housewives of New Jersey meets House meets Hell's Kitchen with a rainbow of gifs. It is glorious and warms my blackened, evil, little soul.

I've only seen one episode of this show that I think would qualify as humiliating, and I think everyone already knows which one that was, even though she should be mortified at herself. But no, these people are giving us a glimpse of what we could be, of what complacency will get you, what apathy and denial can do.…

I ate a whole bag of doritos this weekend, like I tend to do every once in a while. In my defense, they deserved it.

I love this so much! It's entirely true.

I truly hate the taste of sweet potatoes. Russets are my best friends, though.

Avocados and lemons at $1 each, $3.50 for a not-quite-medium-sized head of cauliflower, $5 or more for a pound of lean hamburger, $8 a pound for salmon. Thankfully potatoes are super cheap here, and unfrozen chicken of various parts is usually on sale for $.99 - $1.50 a pound somewhere around town. So yeah, chicken and…

this is on pinterest, btw. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/255508978834394528/

to be able to use 20 lb hand weights. I'm super weak.

^^ this. I don't see any reason to associate with anyone who makes you feel bad about yourself and apparently doesn't have the common sense to be decent, family or not. They sound psychotic.

there are lots of comfort foods you can make healthy versions of yourself. I think potatoes get a bad rap. I love 'em and I don't go without. I weigh them and log them like everything else.

Co-worker said to me last week that I "eat like a gerbil." I said I would eat a freakin gerbil, if it was cooked. Not raw.

I don't recommend anything anyone has said on here except the ones that said go to a doctor. Why in the world would you trust internet peeps for a medical condition. Seriously.

Yeah, I wish 3.5 slices of pizza was 588 calories. I didn't bother to read past that.

Because I want it that much.

omg I wish my mom had done something about me being a fat kid. I starved myself in high school because I was just terrorized all the time and couldn't deal with it anymore. Talk about a lifetime of emotional problems. So yeah, don't leave this alone. Help her any way you can. Maybe even some family therapy might be in…

Taco Bell and Jimmy John's! Most places have a nutritional menu online. Print them out and put them in your glove box if you expect to have to do this often.

Congratulations! I quit 4/15/14 for the 2nd time. It was the last time. Just do yourself a favor and stay away from other smokers if it triggers you. I've had to really re-evaluate who I spend my time with because of it and frankly, it was the best decision I could've ever made. Not only have I made some really nice new…

I only do brats on the foreman. I boil them in beer/water for 12 minutes then char them a little bit with the foreman. Might venture into paninis at some point. I, too, am a pan user for steaks.

I've noticed this too. It's completely wrong with most cardio calories. I use an elliptical machine mostly and MFP says I'll burn 300+ calories in 20 mins or some ridiculous amounts. The machine tells me 120 or so. It's best to research instead of relying completely on MFP for these.

Hi Kristen. I'm a binge eater too. Have been most of my life that I can remember. 1. When you do have a binge, forgive yourself. It's going to happen. The trick is to not give up over a mistake and get back on track immediately. Thinking "oh well, I've been bad all week, I give up altogether" is not how to get to your…

All chicken wings in existence.

Error on the side of caution. If you have to guess, guess high. Also, remove or substitute things you know will be bad. There's a cobb salad at the bar I used to go to a lot and I had them take all the meat off except the little bit of bacon. They knew me there, so they liked to jibe me about it. That was fine with me.…
