Looks great! Very handsome.

Seriously need this today.

The dress totally fits! That's the most important thing. You look great. How about a belt in the same blue so it seems to flow? You could just get a bit of ribbon in blue. It's kinda Rock-a-billy with the tats and put your hair up.

I so needed this today!

Shark fin soup - biz trip before I knew it was bad for the enviro :cry: eel bone - tempura - crunchy :bigsmile: haggis - :sick:

Aw, hang in there. My son still napped at 5 years old. School would just wipe him out. Here is one thought on the "needing quiet." At my kids school, they let the kids use big head phones when they need to concentrate. The head phones muffle the sounds of the other kids and can help them focus. The headphones are not…

WOW, that's fantastic. :drinker: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

OMG Love this thread. My son used to get excited about his animal alphabet video. The first animal was an armadillo. He would shout "Armadildo!" over and over again.

That's great! Keep up the good work :smile:

Whoop whoop! I've lost 3 inches overall since starting the shred. It really kicks my behind. I had to take a two day break over the weekend because I felt like I was pulling my right quad. i've been working in regular cardio too. Push ups are really hard for me. I am modifying a bit on the lunges because of the quad pull.

I started a couple days ago, so I'm in. SW 143.3 Bust 37 Hips 39 Waist 28.5 Thigh 23.5 Arm 12 Calf 15.25

Were you in my house this am? Seriously, the similarities are ridiculous. I've just started to add strength training. I've been working hard for the last few days and what do you know! I've gained two pounds and now weigh 145. Stop stalking me, ok. Actually thanks for the info. I wasn't freaking out or anything but it's…

Hey there, Good job saying no. You can do this. Do you like to cook? I am guessing if you can make real onion rings you are a good cook. I love to cook and share the love with others. That doesn't make it easy to lose weight. I like the skinnytaste.com web site. She makes over good recipes into lighter versions. Last night…

I'm actually making this right now! It looks good and was pretty easy for a day at home with kids.

That's awesome! Also your MIL rocks.

[/quote] Pants falling off that easy is how you end up having more kids.LOL. No, but thats great. Keep it up. [/quote] :bigsmile: :bigsmile: That's what my husband said. :blushing:

You look great! Congratulations!!!:smile:

ugh, cooking :blushing: I guess that's why I'm here.

I know you said no cooking but this is so easy and yummy. You can make extra for later in the week because it reheats well. I rewrote the recipe from George Stella for my diabetic no cooking friend. EASY CHEESY CHILI CHICKEN 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons cilantro (I used two cubes of Trader Joes frozen chopped) 1…

Think counting calories was toooo hard. Now I turn people on to MFP because it is so easy.

This brought tears to my eyes. Congrats and keep going you are so brave.

My grandpa always used the expression, "I was running around like a fart in a windstorm" or "I was running around like a one armed paper hanger." I guess he was running around quite a bit :bigsmile:

Get a heart rate monitor and use it to guide your exercise. That really helped me keep my exercise at a good strong pace without overdoing it and burning out.

Here goes. I was talking on the phone with a guy that does professional knife sharpening. He asked me to describe my knives so he can give an estimate for time and cost. I said, "Well I have two chef knives and a long boner." I totally lost it when I realized what I'd said. The guy laughed too but also said, "and you don't…

Hilarious. Seriously, I am dying.

If it is good coffee then Black! If it is bad coffee then Tea.

That is awesome! Good luck on Saturday!!!!

Love it! It's easy on the eyes and easy to read in the sun. It's always in my purse for down times.

Last year our school challenged any willing families to live on a food stamp budget for one week. I found it really hard to feed our family within those restrictions. If you are interested in giving it a try yourself here are a couple links. http://foodstampchallenge.typepad.com/…

Fill the thermos with HOT water while you make your lunch and it will stay warm even longer. I even stuff a low cal burrito in there to keep it warm. No fat beans, low fat cheese and carb balance whole wheat tortillas. Pack a little hot sauce in a separate container and dip away. You could also just use your thermos for…
