Sheer blouses. Shorts. I have a few really cute things that I bought overseas. Including a Kaftan from Egypt, an adorable traditional Hungarian blouse, a silk Korean dress, and an awesome leather jacket I bought in Italy. All have been in my closet for the last 10 years. I want to wear them again. :flowerforyou:

zucchini chips. slice thin and bake. healthy, crunchy and low cal.

I find red beans and rice an inexpensive meal. Add a zucchini (sauteed) for veggies (can add onion or tomato for $0.25 more per person) the meal costs about $1.75 each. Ham and navy bean soup is also inexpensive per serving. Ham bone $7, beans $2/lb, onions (2) $1.50, celery $0.99, carrots $2.99. add water, salt, bouillon…

Bristol, land of the RenFair? I'm in Madison.

asked my sister, a nurse. UTI's do not always have to do with one being sexually active, having sex, or anything else. Elderly people get them all the time, toddlers get them as well. I know my grandmother gets them once or twice a year - she is in a ladies only Lutheran assisted living center. Yeast may contribute. Drink…

Ummm...at 5ft3 and over 200 I still go swimming. In a swimsuit, a speedo. If your self conscious wear a rash guard but I doubt anyone will care.

I was a weird kid. I loved broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, bean sprouts, cucumbers, peas, beans, carrots. Still allergic to peppers and still don't like beets, radishes or onions (cooked or raw). I might make a cauliflower mash tomorrow, its just as good as mashed potatoes just healthier or maybe steamed carrots, broccoli…

Hi Nebraska! So far I've dropped 5lbs in 3 weeks. I hope you have success with your weight loss goals too! Fall is going to be great. I have Badger football tickets ( I am from Wisconsin) so I can't skip the 1.6 mile walk to and from the stadium every Saturday home game! Good Luck Girl!

did my crunches. had a power outage at work and ended up having to work through lunch. stayed under my calorie goal :)

I'd pick #3 and add a wrap or a necklace, its sexy.

Going cold turkey is hard, so I didn't. Instead I bought a bag of Godiva dark chocolate caramels (they have them at Boston Store and a lot of grocery stores) 5 pieces 200cal, 11g fat, 23g carbs, 2g protein calcium 4% iron 6%. I have one with lunch, one with my mid afternoon snack and one after dinner. Don't feel deprived…

20 minute walk Monday through Friday (during my lunch break) 5 X 10 crunches MWF Jump the entire Jump Around song at Badger Game Sat (2.5min) and walk to and from stadium from my parking spot (0.8mi) Sunday water my plants, rake leaves and put in three new mums. Digging the holes are hard work! 5 X 10 leg lifts(each leg)

I fell off the wagon hard today. Had pizza , spare ribs bagels, bread-sticks and cookies. Went to a training for work. They said they would provide breakfast, lunch and dinner....and the menu had healthy options..(fruit and yoghourt for breakfast, turkey on whole wheat for lunch and baked chicken with steamed veg for…

Support traditional values...organize a neighborhood witch-hunt

Why not? It is not going to change anything for straight individuals or couples. Must we really preserve the sanctity of Britney Spears 55hr marriage and the Kardashian marriage for profit and the expense of committed loving couples who happen to be of the same gender. Besides...marriage began with women not being able to…

Greek salad 2 med. cucumbers peeled and diced - 1/2 cup=8cal 2 med onions (white) diced - 1/2 =30cal 2-4 tomatoes diced (depending on size)- serving 22cal 1 can black olives -rinsed 1cup 154cal 2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil -1TBsp =120cal black pepper to taste oregano (fresh or dried to taste) Toss or if using processor…

red beans and rice are inexpensive, easy and rich in iron have with steamed broccoli and a spinach salad. Yum.

I buy some organic fruits and veggies. esp. anything on the dirty dozen list. MSG gave me lots of headaches and gastro issues. I stopped eating all food with MSG and within a month my gastro issues were gone and my night time headaches were gone. Now I just get sinus headaches.

try zucchini chips just slice thin and bake. or if that wont cut it turkey bacon egg white and cheese on whole wheat bagel. I have horrible sinus drainage and sometime I need bacon to settle my stomach. sweet potato fries/chips may work too

Daiya makes non dairy cheese (shredded and wedges). so delishes makes dairy free yoghourt and ice cream. tofutti also makes dairy free cheese.

My bff's son is GFCF just like the sleepover girl. Udi's makes a gluten free individual pizza crust. add sauce, Daiya (casein free cheese and Hormel pepperoni and veggies. It is simple and fun. Its likely she doesn't get pizza often (it can be expensive) If your leary about tomato sauce just put olive oil on the crust. It…

I always carry either a single serving (200cal) worth of chocolate in my purse. Always dark. If I have a craving I can have a piece or two...or up to 6 and stay in my budgeted cal goal. And I won't run into walgreens buy a pound of some type of candy bar and devourer the whole bag

tinkyada brown rice pasta. You can make a lot of different dishes with these including spaghetti and meat balls and Pad Thai! Udi's muffins (chocolate, lemon poppyseed) Udi's pizza crust Jet Puffed Marshmellows are gluten free too! Lara bars food should taste good sweet potato chips If you need recipes let me know, My bff…

I switched to apple cinnamon spiced tea! It is seasonal and yummy and cheaper...$3/20 bags.

very thinly sliced apple and a baby-bell mini cheese cut into 6. great for snacking in front of the tv with.

could be a shin splint

Good idea. I would likely get more exercise if I am out too.

I:

I am 5'2'' and 137lbs. I have lost 4 pounds in 2 weeks...I am on the 1 pound a week plan but I have been close to my calorie goals and adding exercise every day. I would love to lose weight with you!

get a heart rate monitor then you'll know.
