when i worked in an office that was totally me. indian food every single day. they got used to it after a while :wink:

stretch a whole lot. like a LOT. do some yoga after the workout, for as long as you can, like an hour at least if possible. it helps.

oh my gosh i put that stuff in everything. in coffee, mixed with ss/ff jello pudding mix and greek yogurt, on cereal, in smoothies (PB banana would go great with vanilla coconut milk), use it to cook oatmeal instead of boring old water, etc.

man i still rock a flip phone. with no internet. sometimes i feel like a paraplegic. i know a 3 year old with his own ipad. the new one! :noway:

most people on here hate the cleanse. personally, i love it. i have slow digestion, allergic to certain foods, get bloated and miserable if i eat the wrong thing, stuff like that, so any time i give my digestive system a break i feel SO good. light and free! i don't do the salt water flush though, that part is disgusting.…

god. true story.

thank you so much for being brusque and impervious to taboo :flowerforyou:

i should add i used to be a vegan, and all my vegan friends were/are very militant about their beliefs. it made for many an uncomfortable dinner party ;P

ever go to a party with a bunch of vegans? :noway:

ate too much in china. then i ate too much in laos. ate too much in cambodia. and then i ate way too much in thailand. then ate too much in vietnam :yawn:

it varies dramatically from day to day. some days, 900, other days, 2,700 :tongue: consistency doesn't really do it for me.

well it's the solanine found in eggplants and other nightshades that can be poisonous, but you'd have to eat such an impossibly large quantity to be affected. so unless you're eating like 50 eggplants in one sitting you're probably fine ;P

depends on what country you live in. in the US, it doesn't matter, you're fine. in some developing countries, you run the risk of parasites or whatever disease-causing bacteria is present in produce grown with raw sewage irrigation (read: human waste used as fertilizer). and apparently you shouldn't eat raw cabbage in…

i generally eat all my meals within a 2 hour window, 4:30 pm - 6:30 pm.

i would pay any amount peanut butter & co requires! i actually wasn't a fan of the dark chocolate one. there's something very unappetizing to me about peanut butter and chocolate when they're mixed together (read: NOT in the case of a reeses pb cup, those are bomb). mighty maple is super good too.

if you can't find it in stores: http://amzn.com/B0042M91GG you need it. trust me.

:love:

there are some seriously hot arms in this thread!! inspiring <3 not much but this is my gun: this is my other gun: lol jk clearly not mine. i was scared to hold it. but the gentleman in fatigues insisted.

turkey tikki masala over roasted butternut squash! i don't have an exact recipe for it, just make a tikki masala sauce, throw a package of ground turkey in there and serve it over roasted butternut squash. caramelize some onions and throw those in to make it extra delicious.

my bad. i thought that when you made the comment "Again, I'm not judging. I'm just curious" you were cryptically implying that you were not judging, and just curious.

so basically, you posted this topic not because you're genuinely curious about vegetarianism, but because you think your diet is superior and you'd like vegetarians to agree with you?

is shrimp lo mein bad? no. is too much shrimp lo mein bad? yes :)

absolutely. the other 4 in my top 5: The Fountainhead, War and Peace, Les Miserables, and Raise High the Roofbeam Carpenters and Seymour: an Introduction. but that's just pleasure reading. books for spiritual growth (so far) if anyone is interested in that: The Barbarian Way, Crazy Love, Stepping Heavenward, Absolute…

I gained 10 lbs backpacking Asia a year and a half ago. My friend and I stayed with way too many sweet grandmothers and local families who made stuffing our faces with delicious food their #1 priority. Not to mention these days Chinese people cook with a TON of oil. Most of the chefs put almost an entire cup of oil in the…

beat me to it. also keep in mind (anyone buying "free range" for ethical reasons, that is) that there are no USDA restrictions on what free range chickens are fed, and beak cutting and forced moulting are both allowed.

oh man. i would tell myself, "do things exactly as you are doing them. make mistakes, go crazy. because when you're 27, UNdoing all of that crap will give you some seeerious character."

i would love for people to correct my technique. the majority of the time i have no idea what i'm doing so any tips are always wholeheartedly welcomed.

:drinker:

your tats and hair = :love: love love LOOOOOVE! and either bathing suit combo works for you, you are freaking smoking girl!!!!!!! if i saw you on the beach in that i would shamelessly stare. you have awesome style.

it's the big hair! i can't see your body! :tongue:
