Oh yah, i haven't tried it yet but im going to make homemade "deluxe wonton soup" making my own wontons with a veg./pork mixture. i love that soup, but really high in salt/msg when in a restaurant.

I don't know about "chinese recipes" but i do know i often make stir frys out of virtually any veggies i have. using a none stick pan, and yes...a little olive oil or sometimes sesame oil. I love garlic in it, or ginger..don't need to add sauces but once in a while just a touch of teriyaki. only thing i recomend it to…

For me, it will all be about forgiveness. whatever happens, forgive yourself. Im luckier than most in that my sister, and her hubby are following the same program i am...so we will encourage eachother. However, lots of her hubby's family will be there, and my b/f will need to eat, so there will be temptations galore. plus…

Oh, and i totally encourage the electric dog fence. if you don't get it fo christmas, go get it for yourself. It made all the difference with our dog.Although we got the "buried wire" one, but…

to be honest...im loving my shakes. I started the "body by vi" product and OMG...everything is like cake!!! i love it. I can add other stuff in it to make different flavors too. It's like having dessert twice a day. the added bonus that it is assisting me in loosing weight and inches is FANFREAKNTASTIC!!! (17lbs and 6…

reguardless if needing/wanting to loose or gain, i believe this site is a helpful tool for getting healthy. Part of getting healthy is having ppl around you that are supportive. I do hope that you can find that here. So far ive found ppl to be helpful with advice and experience. they are also generous with words of…

I just used tuna in a can...with water, and made tuna melts with it...they are my fav.

TUNA I know someone is gonna say something negative about this, but i swear it worked for me, ad still does. Years ago, for some reason i went on a tuna obsession,lol..ate it every day for like a year. Not that i recommend that, but i noticed withing a month or so, i could rememberr everything. I mean everything. the job i…

just gotta say, wish i lived wherever you all are...dark meat being cheaper...round here, its all the same price...high.

Ive heard of it, and tried it. I don't recall what the amounts or whatever of the suppliment i took but i found it dropped my bloodsugars substancially. Im diabetic. So i stopped it right away, never had the chance to find out if it worked.
-
Yes please... I have often thought about things like massage therapy, reiki, and acupuncture/acupressure and wondered if it's a bunch of hooey. Ive never found anyone willing to explain how these would help, without charging me a consultaion fee...PLEASE do tell. some of us are more than willing, if we could just…

I have been in those shoes. In feb of 2011 i was 394.6 lbs. I went for a lapband....lost 30 lbs befoer the surgery, and 20 after. two weeks ago i was at 383.7. I was at my lowest, emotionally. the band was supposed to work, and it woudl have, if i hadn't worked against it...i know that now. I couldn't figure out what…

I think ...and i don't expect anyone else to follow if they don't want to...as we bring our bodies back into the relm of good health, we need to bring our minds, heart and souls too. Too often larger ppl, of any degree, deal with opinions of others (that they just can't seem to keep to themselves), or media projections, or…

It took me years to figure it out, but i stand by something my grandmother said to me. "becareful when pointing a finger, there are three pointing back at you" There will always be ppl to criticize. When will ppl learn it's easier to motivate with positive reenforcement? Besides, we shoudl eat what we want to..it will keep…

WHAT!!!!! NOO DONT!!! that is the worst thing you could do. Seriously i can't believe someoen would post this.

Ive suggested to my b/f that for every 25 lbs i loose he buy me a rose. I will dry then after and save the petals in a special basket for potpourri. The big goals, like 100 lbs,(i hope to someday have 2 of those) will get a bouquet that can be dried as well. those roses will get center space on our dining room table to…

Oh girl, do i ever know that ship(never mind a boat). Ive been on meds like that for years. In addition to taking insulin which at times defeats it's self. Over the past 10 years ive gained 150 lbs. Ive always been heavy, but im beyond that now. I agree with talking to a specialist, and trying different meds to find one…

wore socks for the entire day, without ripping them off cause they were cutting in. Whew..thank god cause i was getting worried i'd have cold feet all winter,lol.
-
Actually...i wouldn't. IMO, having a day where you can have those things you are trying to avoid or, a day when you canhave something special is the only way i can keep myself going. I find that if i deprive myself of the "goodies" then i loose it one day and never go back to "dieting". it is self sabotage for me. So, now…
