I'm obsessed with this recipe: 1 package Trader Joe's cooked lentils 1 container Trader Joe's Fresh Bruschetta Sauce 1 container Trader Joe's crumbled Feta Cheese with Mediterranean Herbs Mix together and eat. I usually also add an entire bunch of shredded dino kale. Divide into four servings. I usually do this and call it…

Congratulations! Welcome to Boothworld. :-)

OMG! I LOVE this picture! So tired of seeing pictures of bmx parks that make you think you have to be a 13 year old boy to use it. Thanks for sharing it - you made my day.

The League of American Bicyclists has a fantastic adult bike safety class curriculum, and certifies instructors across the United States. If you're in the US, let me know what city you're in and I'll see if there's a certified instructor in your area.

Yeah, I'd hurl, too. Way too many calories, plus dairy to boot. That's not to say I don't know a fair number of people who could/would do just fine cycling on an xl shake from sonic. I envy their gastrointestinal fortitude...

Define "advanced age"... If I had to generalize - I'd say think in terms of low impact versus high impact (cycling and swimming versus running), and exercises/sports that don't require a lot of quick changes of direction (rowing versus basketball). That said, there will be numerous exceptions to this rule, of course...

Now THAT's awesome. Soooo many people can't do that. Congratulations, runner!

"That" was courtesy above and beyond what was required.

On a package of bread: "100% multi-grain" :-)

Congratulations! - for staying level-headed, not letting it derail your plans, and being proud of some really good changes! Oh, and congratulations on getting married, too. :-)

Benefits: all the vitamins and minerals in 20 carrots, without having to eat 20 carrots. One of my favorite things to do with my juicer is to juice an onion, about 4 cloves of garlic, a carrot and a stalk of celery and add that to a pot of dried beans that I'm cooking. Imparts amazing flavor to the beans, much more so than…

The best advice I ever received about how to respond when I don't know what to say, is to respond as if they said what I wanted to hear, instead of whatever they said. So: "What the he** happened to you?! Are you Sick? You lost weight?" Gets "Thank you for noticing! I feel great!". Leaves them scratching their heads,…

It's ALWAYS ok to dip into whatever fund you have around to fix your bicycle. Or buy a new one. Or *another* one. :-) Now if I could only convince my sig other of this fact...

I think it's a really common fear. But, as a long-time runner, I'll tell you what *I* think when I see a new runner jiggling along at the track: "That person is AWESOME, and is much, much braver than me". Seriously. Just go run. For every one *kitten* out there, there are 9 of us who are in awe of your commitment.

I think that all of these formulas/calculators, etc have a very high margin of error. If I do the formula, I get a BMR of 1,297. Had it tested in a lab last year - 1049. I am, apparently, more efficient than most of the population. :-)

I have great luck with basically just agreeing with the statement without rancor. The "of course not miss size 2..." comment would get a friendly, "Of course not." back from me. The big butt comment would get "Yes, I do" back from me. The trick is to smile while you say it, keep the sarcasm out of your own voice and let it…
