I'm going to stay at 2-3 workouts per week, and just listen to my body as far as how hard to push it. Day 2 had been pretty good although I think tomorrow I will bring more snacks to work. I was hungry by the end of the day. Also I thought the minestrone I made would have fewer net carbs, but after plugging it in the MFP…

CAKE song. My voice is also dark like tinted glass.

Bump. I LOVE beets, but I've only had them from a can or once when the neighbors pickled a jar. I order them at restaurants too, since the boyfriend would not tolerate them as a side dish for himself. I would like to learn more beet applications.

There is usually a soup section and a cold salad bar section at a Chinese buffet. I'd go for that! Go for non-breaded lean proteins and veggies when you can and gauge how oily the sauce looks. Don't bother with the empty carbs like rice or noodles. Sodium seems like it would be impossible to manage there because of all the…

This is what happens when men weigh in on BC discussions-- total distraction from the point at hand!

Not a big reader, eh, pedal pusher?

<b>Update: I've been on the new pill for about 2 months now, and I have not gained or lost any weight. My cup size went up though, which is freaky when you think about messing with hormones. When I chatted about the plateau to my boyfriend, he was understanding of my frustration but said, "well, that's good fat though,…

Ding ding ding! Call ahead, or go to a place that says "No MSG" if you're concerned, although, the other posters have already given reasons to not be concerned. Deep fried, sugary sauced chicken or fried noodles with no MSG is going to be worse for you than steamed or sauteed veggies and chicken with MSG.

Definitely not vegan

Whaaaat look at your booty! Haha congrats, way to go!

He's just not that into you. He wants to be a good guy and not break up by phone, or wants to fulfill whatever plans you two have made, but he's obviously not into it, which means you are getting a crappy deal as a girlfriend. End it! Edit: End the relationship, keep the healthy living. Motivation should be depleted for…

I was my sister's maid of honor and we threw her a wine and cheese tasting! She's a little snobby so it was great, and it was clean although our artist bridesmaid made the cutest sugar cookies shaped like rear ends and decorated them with lacey undies. The girls who brought **** ring toss just felt awkward.

Having a lite yoga class after an intense cardio/strength mix class made me feel better right away. Still felt the burn, but I could move the next day. It makes sense physiologically too as far as how the muscles heal. Try lite stretching and range of motion activities. Always warm up and cool down!

I'm an SLP in a school, off for the summer except extended school year, which I'm seeing as a trial run for keeping up two fitness classes/week. All of you can add me! I like seeing motivated people when I log in!

I just meant because the food is nasty! I can just as easily defrost and overcook my own frozen food, but granted I have to go to the restaurant if I want to see 16 year olds fight over who's turn it ISN'T to take a table. Applebee's is the worst, I do not understand that place!

Houlihan's has some smaller dinners available that taste just great and are a normal portion size, as well as delicious and creative salads. I can't believe you people choose to spend money at Applebee's, barf. If it comes down to that just cook for yourself.

I appear to have started on a plateau! I've been at 148 for two weeks, grumble grumble.

They say fat and happy for a reason... I have gained over the two years I've been dating the BF, but I'm not about to get rid of him just to get skinny :smile: ! So MFP it is!

"Only boring people are bored," according to Betty Draper.

I tried a sample 5 classes, and it was really fun! It's not that creepy at all, honestly, everyone was in workout clothes and high heels were optional. You get up in the air on the first class! The morning after my first class, I had to brush my teeth by moving my head from side to side because my arms were so sore! It's…

My goal is really similar to that! Request sent!

Olive Oil Roasted Tomatoes and Fennel with White Beans. Roasted tomatoes are way up there on the favorite things list. The beans give it enough bulk to be substantial. It's decent cold. Vegan and delicious, link to the recipe below:…

Thanks, Ivikatasha, sounds like my situation exactly. I don't get how they can charge me more for less hormones, but as long as they work I'll deal with the logical fallacies.

This! Margarine has bad bad evil trans fats, so it's olive oil or butter for me 100% of the time, unless a recipe calls for canola oil which I have somewhere in a cupboard.

Well that would blow my weight loss goals all to heck.

This makes me feel better, thank you. Sounds like I need to watch my intake (thanks mfp.com!) and be ready for some extra water weight until my body gets used to the new formula. I appreciate the input, thanks!

Oh my goodness! That would be alarming!

Hello! I'm Dominique and my superpower is being a twin, although the jury is still out on which of us is evil!

23 here! Friend me if you like! I just started counting cals again last week and I need something to do other than eat nomnomnom

I like the 0% Fage, eithter with fruit and honey as everyone else mentioned, or a little mixed into salsa with tortilla chips! My sister was disappointed to notice the sugar/calorie content of yoplait when she was dieting and found that her husband's taco bell taco had fewer calories and carbs than her yogurt.
