I have 50 lbs to go. Daunting task but we can climb a mountain one step at the time.

Never uses make up

On Sundays I bake chicken breasts for the whole week. I usually have one for lunch with lots of greens such as broccoli, peppers and/or spinach with a bit of lemon juice. If I happen to run out or forget I eat a wrap with turkey breasts, veggie packed and a bit of mustard.

I admire everyone that has the discipline to not eat certain foods. My biggest problem is that I don't need to be educated on why most people do it. I know. I don't live in a bubble. I simply enjoy bacon. Don't make others feel inferior because you don't kill living things. Watched an episode of "Chopped" and the vegan…

I count nothing that is dark green. Example one cup of spinach is 7 calories. I have everything taken out that is non essential such as croutons, shredded cheese... for dressing I order extra lemon wedges.

I have a Six-Star-Protein (bought it at walmart) shake every morning. It has 30g of Protein and I add berries and/or a banana. It's about 240 kalories and it keeps me going until lunch. I found it to be a great meal replacement. I have a little smoothie maker and the shake is very creamy and filling.

I have heard the water vapor cigarettes work. When I stopped smoking I stayed away from everything that would trigger me wanting to smoke. I ate raw carrots, celery sticks to keep myself from wanting to light up. I also made sure my hands stayed busy with writing a stop smoking journal. It's very hard.

I am naturalized and the test is not hard. However becoming a citizen is difficult (due to the bureaucracy) and expensive.

Yeah tax it!

I switched to Captain Morgan spiced rum w/diet coke. 60 calories per shot. The occasional Happy Hour is saved!

Watching Dexter, Boardwalk Empire, Boss and Spartacus on Demand..... Great stories no commercials.....

I am German that immigrated to the US. I will travel to Germany tomorrow. I will be in Stuttgart for two weeks. Counting calories will be hard. Mac, you can also get a lot of fresh produce on the German economy. Venture out to local farmers markets and small Tuerkish stores have a plethora of foods that are great for…

I have watched "The Walking Dead" before. I also watch "Mad Men" and "Hell on Wheels" on AMC. It's one of the better cable channels. Also love FX "American Horror Story" and "Justified".

A good used treadmill is more then $100. Depends on the childrens age; you might consider buying a used running stroller. Just a thought...

Never! Why emulate someone that looks like me now? I want to improve not stagnate...
