Of COURSE a cup of dried fruit will have more fiber than a cup of fresh!! That is kind of a rediculous thing to say. It is like saying 300 grapes have more fiber than 20 grapes. :/ And "they are a good suppliment for those seeking to GAIN weight". Aren't most of us looking to lose around this joint?? It is pretty well…

Purchased and worn lingerie.

My goodness! I like the Hydroxycut Hardcore. I take them on occasion, but in cycles. I will take them for a couple of weeks, then stop for a few weeks, then back on again. They aren't "magic" and they aren't BAD either. They are a tool. You have to use them as a tool.

I think the bigger issue is that you need to feel OVER FULL to be satisfied. It is better to over indulge on veggies, but you are still over indulging. Are you tracking calories? How do those look? Are you eating over a 20+ minute period, so your tummy gets the message? I am more interested in calories than size of veggie…

Took the words right outta my mouth.

I LOVE Joseph's Pitas. They are a staple in my diet!!

25, in Bar Harbor- she was the "new years baby" of 2006.

I wasn't even tempted. Once I make my mind up- I am good to go. I am 100% dedicated to a new way of life. Candy sounds completely unappealing to me. We even went to see my grandparents with the kids, and my gran had my favorite pie in the world ready for us- Rhubarb Custard Pie. And she sent the rest home with us. I didn't…

My cycle was never normal, but I was anorexic in HS, and lost my period all together. My breasts stopped growing permanently as well. My doc said that that is the first thing your body sacrifices when you are starving yourself, as it is not necessary to ovulate/menstruate to live. My period never came back normally, but I…

I would try dropping your sugar intake- eating lower carbs may help. More water as well. 4 cups a day isn't enough!! Can you get more exercise in? Are you lifting weights at all?

It is just HAIR. I have mine really short, and LOVE it. Do it. If you don't have a hair attachment issue, you should have no problem. Some love long hair, mine always bugged me. I would end up putting it up all of the time to get it out of my face, and what is the point of that?! I wish I had done it far sooner.

DITTO!!! Also mayo. And okra. Not a fan of pork, unless it is bacon. Giant clam (a sushi ingredient).

You can hide things like shredded carrot, squash, pumpkin, flax seeds, etc in muffins. You can also add squash to mac and cheese and it is "hidden". Try switching to whole grain pasta, or smart taste (Ronzoni). If your LO is really picky and wont do a full switch all at once, substitute 1/4 of the amount to begin with,…

My mom used to put in a potato cut in half during cooking when something was oversalted (like soup, chili etc). Spuds suck up salt. Then you just remove the potato. :)

Yep- 5' 8" and a 7" wrist, over here.

PREGNANCY changes our bodies. A lot. I haven't had an IUD- I chose the Depo shot. It works great for me. Are you counting CALORIES? Not just carbs? Add me if you like. I have gone through pretty much everything you mentioned, from weight gain, to lack of sex drive, to being nocturnal. Just... not w/ an IUD! It may be…

What is wrong with people??? Where are these people's parents...? I know the 8yr old's parents are right there, and they're HORRIBLE, but where are THEIR parents? My mom taught me to respect the feelings of others, and that there is no excuse to put other people down. Have people stopped teaching their kids this? This is…

WOW!!! Amazing! You should be SO proud of yourself!!! Keep up the good work! :drinker:

Add me! I am 24 down, 30 ish more to go- exercising daily, lifting, and- I even JOGGED yesterday!! I have never been able to run, but thought I would try it for the heck of it after walking with my kids. And, holy crap- I was able to go and go like I never would have imagined!! Anyway- I log everything, and am very…

If you can find free range farm fresh (like from someones coop- not mass produced) that is the best way to go. It is like a whole different food than store bought eggs.

Love this stuff!!

What is your current weight and height, what are your calories set at, and are you exercising?

Awesome job!!

Are you using the IMG file, and then changing your IMG on either end of the file to img?

I thought this too! Watermelon is VERY high in sugar, as are bananas. Peanut butter (and other nut butters and Sunbutter) are VERY high calorie, and it is SO easy to eat half a jar! (Sunbutter is a slippery slope for me!) Trail mix is also very calorie dense, so you don't get much bang for your caloric buck. I really love…

I am from Maine, and in Maine. :)

I eat fish, (though I stay away from farm raised salmon) white meat turkey and chicken, filet mignon only for cow, and bacon on occasion.

Endo. I don't get how anyone could find a "skinny" or "small" man hot. Bigger IS better. ;)

Silverware scraping on ceramic plates. Fork tines especially. (It is like fingernails on a chalkboard, and, I hate that too...)

YOU. ... WHAT DID YOU DO???!!!!! Seriously. Holy moley!
