Really good French vanilla, Turkey Hill mint chocolate chip, peanut butter, and chocolate peanut butter.

Strawberries!

Sunshine, the ocean, children laughing, quite time at home on the weekend, my job, my husband. I'm generally happy most of the time, so many things in life bring me joy!

Watching Jeopardy, finishing my food journal, and piddling around on Facebook.

My husband is maybe 15 pounds overweight, but he's muscular and has a bit of a beer belly. He just naturally cuts back on eating when he reaches a certain point. For him, it's 180. He says he feels better at 170, cuts back on chips and soda for a few weeks and drops 10 pounds. I kind of hate him just a little for that. :-D

Chobani drink flavors Directions

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes and glazed carrots. I didn't eat much earlier in the day and I'm starving right now!

What breeds of cow are black. Coupon codes for Kohl's.

1964 Mustang. <3 <3 <3 It came out the year I was born, but I loved Mustangs long before I knew that!

Eggs, cottage cheese, fruit. Or oatmeal, fruit, glass of milk. Occasionally a turkey and Swiss sandwich. Or nothing. Or breakfast sandwich from McDonald's. Depends on my mood.

NO food is off limits to me, if I want it I make it work. My motto is, I can have anything I want, just not all in the same day. I have pizza every week, ice cream occasionally, burgers, fries, cookies. I just don't eat like that every day and I balance it with healthier food choices. Deprivation does NOT work for me at…

No, but I had pepperoni, cheese and crackers for breakfast the day after Christmas! :D It happens, all we can do is learn from it and move on.

I can curse like crazy, and it gets worse when I've been drinking! But I'm very good at not cursing 99% of the time.

Peaches, strawberries and cantaloupe when they're in season locally. I eat grapes, apples and bananas year round, but less when the other fruits are in season.

I have one tattoo and I have at least 2 more planned. I think there are a lot of bad tattoos out there and some people don't take the time to really choose a good design and artist. I put a LOT of thought into my first tattoo, planned it for over a year, took time designing it myself, tweaked the design with the tattoo…

I'm really starting to believe that there is something to the "eat less carbs and more protein and you'll lose weight thing". I've been eating at a calorie deficit for 6+ months and have lost nothing. I go up and down the same 2 pounds, which can mostly be attributed to sodium and water retention. I'm balking at reducing…

I am seriously considering having a second sloppy joe sandwich because the first one was so good, but then the angel on my shoulder is all "That's how you got so fat in the first place, dumbasss!" Sigh.

Pizza. I have it every Thursday. Why? Um, why not!

It's not fair that I'm getting sick on my birthday. :/

Eat less, move more. No food is off limits to me, although there are a few things I just can't keep in the house because I've proven time and time again that I can't eat them in reasonable portions. Yeah I'm talking to you, crackers, cheese, milk, and pastries. But I still eat them if I am in a position to only have access…

Today I had 2 hard boiled eggs, 2 string cheese, a banana and a glass of milk. I wasn't hungry for at least 5 hours.

I would love to know what it's like to go to bed, fall asleep in under 30 minutes, sleep all night and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to take on the world. I hear it's wonderful.

First kiss at 15 or 16, first date at 16, first "relationship" at 19. I was too busy being a good student to care about boys. ;-)

Special Education teacher working with infants and toddlers, I don't work on Fridays. :smiley:

Havarti cheese. Mmm.

Somehow I came in under calories for Christmas Eve, mostly because I avoided alcohol and cookies. Christmas day? I was doing fine until extreme tiredness led me to a slight cookie binge. I had to estimate that I was over by about 600 for the day.

That I sang with a local symphony orchestra for 2 years. Unfortunately that was a long time ago, before smoking took its toll on my lovely voice. :-(

Well speaking for those that have been seriously overweight for a long time, reaching "goal" weight is almost impossible due to the excess skin we grew to accomodate the extra fat. Personally speaking, I know how smoking hot I looked when I graduated high school, at 5'6" and 175 pounds. That is a full 20 pounds over the…

Boring here--Lean Cuisine Fettucine, small chicken breast, and a salad.
