To me it tastes like a summer squash or zucchini. Like most pastas, it depends on what you mix it with. If you add spaghetti sauce, then it resembles spaghetti. I like to make it either savory with salt, pepper, garlic and some lite butter. Or sweet with a bit of honey or agave syrup and some lite butter. With tomato based…

I'm gonna use this in the future...GREAT!!!

My take: I would have bought you a present, but since I lost $1000.00 on the lost trip, I cant afford you at this time...

Kind of comes and goes for me. Most times salty-which I am trying to moderate with HBP. Then sweets come into play. The combo of sweet and salty is my deadly combo for sure. Like, chocolate covered pretzels...OMG!

Meal frozen then thawed that was not even close to the 'same' meal. Instant grits, cereal or non-fat dry milk Over-cooked steak, especially when considered to be 'blackened'. Any food served less than temp meant to be, cold or just under-cooked. Over cooked veggies, rather eat them raw then overcooked Under cooked eggs,…

What's not to be HAPPY about. You have done well and look great. Congrats!

Hello. Looking at the replies, I can see that most agree on one main thread...once you lose the weight you want to, he might be afraid you might leave him for someone else. Then again, he might just like a heavier woman. It is hard to say what 'imprints' us for the people we see as desireable as partners. I believe you…

I guess the one that won the lawsuit for no warning label...HA!

When I met her the very first time, I felt the kizmet immediately. she did also. Being recently divorced for both of us, we were cautious thinking it was just a burst of lust. Glad it was kizmet and we have been together 23 years. Yeah, the lust part was there, but it was only a part of how we began. We talked all the…

Thanks for your honest sharing. I do understand the lack of motivation as I lost 20% of my bodyweight and over a year gained back 30% more. I was devastated and lost as what to do. My biggest problem was I did not have support after I lost the weight and got back into old, bad habits and went crazy eating myself back and…

I was tired of being tired. I did not want to buy more 'larger' clothes and keep giving away recently purchased clothes. I wanted more energy and stamina to make it through a day. Just overall disgusted with the way I felt, look, ate and not seeing and end to the vicious downward cycle I felt trapped in for life. I had…

Non-physical: independent and self confident, positive thinking, inner strength Physical: first thing I look at...eyes, happy with who she is and how she looks, active Turn offs: " I have more money than most 3rd world countries", starts too many replies with 'NO', inflexibility to change or 'going with the flow', and lying

Hello, back. I am new here and would like to add you as a friend. I am working my plan and am seeing small 'wins'. Best 'plan' I have ever been on.

KEEP GOING!!!

I don't want for much, so being consistent about my health plan, sticking to my diet and excercise, and getting healthy to offer a better person to my family and friends will do nicely. My holiday wish for everyone is to be where you want to be, with those you love and care for as the healthier person you strive to be.

Hello all. I am new to MFP and wonder if you will start this again in December. I am beginning to keep track of my walking and would like to do this with a goal in mind. Thanks

I'm new here also and could also use support to meet my goals. You may add me if you like.

After I met with a client for 2.5 hours, it was almost 1pm and I thought, 'heck, let me just find some healthy fast food'. I realized what I said and made it back home where I ate lite tuna in water with lite mayo instead. Might not be much, but I can see my mind is beginning to get this. Small win for bigger results. Just…

This is news to me, I only caught the TV news long enough to see the weather and traffic reports. If I can find a pack of Twinkies and eat one and plant the other in my yard...will I have a Twinkie tree in a few months or will I still only have one little, dirt covered Twinkie??? Someone is bound to be hoarding them. And,…

I think what we are almost all trying to achieve is getting our metabolism higher, which will burn fat and we will lose weight and size. Sounds like you are getting more excercise than you were used to and that is good. It is my understanding that more excercise and eating smaller, healthier meals more often will boost…

Duck Dynasty, as background

Looking at 10% or 21lbs. Appear to be close to on track. Need to increase excercise and do better with diet, but I do see small results that are motiviational to say the least. Even if I don't lose 21lbs by Jan 1, I know I will have lost some and am at least working on a goal instead of just talking about doing it. All…

To those looking for motivational friends, please add me. I will do my best to help motivate if you will also do the same. RG

Random things I love... The smell of the house when cooking, doesn't matter what's cooking, just the fact that it is home made, fresh and healthy A cold morning that turns into a warm, sunshiny day A drive through the country just to clear your mind Catching up with a long lost friend and by the time we're done chattin',…

regrets, none

Love the pic, great motivator. RG

Hello. Just checking in to see how you're doing. RG

Helo Foodies. I am new to MFP and am a Foodie and have been for quite some time. I assist at a local retail kitchen and wine store for assorted cooking classes held there. I have no formal training (ACI, AAI, etc), but have been interested in learning to prepare healthier meals to stay on track with my current health plan.…

The MyoFusion Cinnamon protein powdcer sounds great. I am trying to wean myself off the cappucino coffee creamer I am addicted to, and this sounds like it might be a viable replacement. Thanks for the tip, I can almost hear the MajicBullit now...
