  • I do something similar to what cobygrey posted. I cut potatoes into wedges... usually 24 per potato. I drizzle them with olive oil and sprinkle on McCormick's Grill Seasoning. I arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet. Honestly, I lay them out on the sheet and THEN add the oil and seasoning. Bake in a 450 degree…

  • Yeah, I'm a chai tea freak, too. A whole teaspoon of vanilla? Extract? Wow. I guess the splenda is enough to counteract the bitterness. How many ounces of water are you using? Yeah, and this has got to be better for me than the Tazo concentrate I usually use. Thanks!

  • I think what Pink said can be used for almost everything we discuss on this board. People talk about not being able to stop themselves from eating the whole box of cookies or chip. They say they can't have just one. YES YOU CAN. YOU are in control. You are a human being with a brain, intelligence and the power to make…

  • Following up what Casper said... You could be gaining weight in the form of muscle as you're losing weight in the form of fat. I'm not entirely sure, but I think a good way of figuring out if this is the case is by checking your measurements. Your measurements might be shrinking (because you're losing fat) even though your…
