The honey stuff is 108 cals for 1.5 oz....and we each had 3 or 4 shots last night. Oops! We've now relegated it to a "we just got home from work and we need a little something to take the edge off" category, not the "we want to get effed up" category.

I'll make 2 dozen breakfast burritos on a Saturday and Sunday for my husband and I to take to school (we both teach middle school.) We use: hashbrowns/tater tots/shredded potatoes, eggs, peppers, green chilies, onions, spinach, salsa, cheese etc. We'll mix everything up in a big bowl, wrap in a tortilla, and put them in…

From Sandra Lee's Semi-Homemade 20 Minute Meal cookbook: Caribbean Turkey and Sweet Potato Chili 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 1 1/4 lb ground turkey 1 tsp bottled minced garlic 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained 1 can (15 oz) sweet potatoes rinsed, drained and diced 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with onion 1…

Bun, that's actually a good idea! I was pretty good this week, didn't drink Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday...at least I don't think I had one on Wednesday.) Had a captain/fresca on Thursday, but I got my drink on last night. The JD Tennessee Honey is DANGEROUS!!

It was -4 today when I woke up, but it warmed up to 40-something...the major roads are clear of snow and whatnot...I love that about Colorado. You peeps in the damn-cold places stay warm!!! My winter break was lushy...I'm sure none of you are surprised. So, I'm going to try and be "good" during the weeks to save it for the…

Y u mad, bro? Do you have more to back this up or is this all you got?

I'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!!! I took a hiatus over the summer which took me until October to really get back into things (I coached 2 seasons of volleyball) and I was trying to not log and just eat/drink intuitively, and it wasn't quite working, so here I am. I missed you guys so…

No. Just...no.

No flaming here...everyone's entitled to their own opinion. As a soccer player, I found I was able to bounce back faster after games after I started doing yoga rather than just stretching. Maybe it was due to the fact that doing a practice "forced" me to stretch and hold it, rather than me just sitting there stretching.…

There was a great article that was linked to the Yogaglo FB page from some magazine called Triathlete Europe. Here's the first paragraph: "Yoga serves as the perfect cross-training for triathletes for its restorative benefits and ability to build body awareness. “When I began practicing yoga, I realised I really was not…

My husband and I garden every summer and we tend to stick to replenishing crops (squash, peppers, lettuce, tomatoes, etc.) but I ALWAYS reserve a spot for beets. We love them in our house...although I have to remind my husband the day after we eat them that he ate them so he doesn't think he's dying when he goes to the…

I just read all 6 pages of this waiting for the OP hairflip. MFP, I am disappoint.

Thug Kitchen has a ton of vegetarian/vegan recipes. Dude swears like a sailor, so if you're ears are delicate, consider this your warning. www.thugkitchen.com

OP: you know you can buy new boobs, right? If you're not into cosmetic surgery, i hear they made fab bras these days to help accentuate the girls.

I figured someone would steer her in the right direction. I've been on here too long to respond to anything with much seriousness, so thanks for stepping in.

Nope, I think you're the only one. Sorry.

It's for the pre-cooked weight.

Sorry, but I respectfull call BS on this. I'm 40, 5'3", and when I was losing, I was doing it by eating 1700-1800 cals a day. (I ate back my exercise calories.) There are several calorie calculators that are more in depth than MFP's. Scooby's is a good one, or you can search the forums for heybales' spreadsheet, which also…

I gotta disagree here. The best lifting/strength training for women is the one that any particular woman enjoys, finds challenging, and will stick with. There's no "magical women's lifting program"...there's just different programming. Nia Shanks' "Beautiful Badass" has a bajillion different programs (okay, like 18) so if…

Learn some patience. Srs.

How do you get a bikini body? Put on a bikini. :wink: Wear what you want, sister. You've worked hard for it.

But I heard that you have things for girls in short skirts and long jackets...isn't this ironic?

Life is too short to do stuff you hate.

OMFSM...for the love of his noodly appendage, that looks amazeballs!! I've been looking for a good lasagna recipe and methinks I've found it. Byn, you're the bestest!!

in because I need some inspiration...mine left at the beginning of the summer.

Stop the effing body shaming. Srs.

Weight can fluctuate anywhere between 1-5 pounds from day to day based on glycogen storage (if you're working out) water retention (due to several different factors) and whether or not you've pooped. :laugh: I wouldn't worry about 3 pounds. Make the best choices you can on your trip, try and see if you can exercise a bit…
