so, just quinoa then dump on some artichoke hearts and alfalfa sprouts and eat? do you add anything else for flavor? (like like even salads with no dressing, but making sure not missing part of your "recipe")

Love your post! Thanks!

Inspirational, you should be very proud of your accomplishments. You were beautiful before you lost weight. However, the excess weight did hide your "real" contours. This new look....it's awesome on you!

Somebody mentioned your clothing. That is really possible if you are wearing moisture wicking or performance apparel. What happens is that if you put them in the dryer, the static sheets clog (ruin) the breathability (porosity) of the material. "Microbes" from your body get stuck in those pores and over a relatively small…

Wow!

I forgot, try this! (it's amazing, too!) Toss some in your "scrambled eggs". Here's what I do: cook quinoa in my little rice cooker (like $12 at WalMart), portion into baggies, put in freezer (point being, have it cooked & ready to toss into something for a quick meal or boost to a meal....I do remember to put one in the…

My favorite thing to do (quick & simple & filling): take a sandwich bag, put in 3/4 cup cooked quinoa & 1/2 cup garbanzo beans (chickpeas), 1 teaspoon olive oil & some red wine vinegar (you don't have to put in the olive oil, sometimes I do, sometimes I don't). Take it to work, eat it out of the baggie with a spoon.…

Keep an open mind to the person that suggested you eat more calories, they are trying to enlighten you.…

By the way, starting going barefoot (just socks) on elliptical as I had pressure on small toes & other issues others have encountered. No more pressure (no more potential bunions!), my feet stay cool and I know exactly how I'm using my foot on the pedals!

The reason is because you are using the upper portion of your foot when you are pushing downward. I made this mistake before. My husband did the same. Distribute your weight over your entire foot as you exercise and this will stop.

You might have fun watching my posts/diary. I joined MFP September 2012 & fell off the wagon by early December 2012. Just giving you this little bit of history if you add me & notice no weight loss from then to now. No explanation or excuse will be offered, too much information. LOL. However, as of this week, I am back in…

I can't wait until I can join you in celebrating the same milestone for myself! Maybe by September 2013. Congratulations!
