@ely2789...I loved ice cream at one time too, but now I make my own using a frozen banana, flax seed, PB2, a smidge of soymilk mix in food processor and POW...The Best Ice Cream ever!! :happy: can use frozen strawberries too....YUM!! :smile:

@Nutella91.....ditch the nutella and use PB2 instead, Oh my gosh there is life without nutella, who knew?!!

Chips and working every other weekend, when I'm stressed I consume the bag :grumble: :explode: :mad:

5K's daily here...started out wearing headband to keep the sweat pourin in my eyes but then the sun was too bright so now I just wear a cap and that keeps me in the shade :glasses: :happy:

here I am...now what plan do you have for all us singles in one room?? :laugh: mingle mingle :bigsmile:

Haha....read my profile! I have my own thoughts on WW :laugh: :glasses:

Awesome Job!! Portion control is good but add in work-outs & results show more inside & out! :flowerforyou: :happy:

I work 3rd shift, sleep most of the day away, so when I get up in the middle of the afternoon, do my exercise routine, run errands, etc. by the time I get home it's well past 5:30PM. I have the same dilemma as you however, I do make time to cook a quick homemade stir-fry during the week. Only on the weekends will I make…

I soooo miss drinking coffee! I used to drink a pot a day, but due to an ongoing medical condition I had to give it up entirely. Now I hang out in the coffee aisle at the grocery store breathing in the rich smell of coffee! :blushing: :laugh: :happy: :smile: :wink:

Women This & Women That kinds of things I shake my head at. Unless the Protein Powder is totally labeled "For Men & Their Muscles" I look at & read all the stats on Protein Powder to make my decision. In the past I went with GNC's Lean Shake powder but the price was ridiculous so I started to pay attention to the Threads…

I tried both years ago, pop tarts have been around for along time, then came toaster strudels a more rich style for the rich I said. I'm able to gaze at both of them at the grocery store & walk on by without a 2nd glance! I have more important foods to contend with these days.....in the produce section, in the health food…

I ate very little for Breakfast, skipped Lunch but exercised & workouts big time today, so when it was time for Dinner I ate little of this & little of that so in the end I could eat some Easter Candy & not worry/stress about going over my stats....Enjoyed Family & Friends time & it definitely turned out to be a GREAT…

Yes, I've heard that Fennel tastes like it....I've got to get me some of that, besides it's probably less calories! :happy: :smile:

@lisa799...I'm the same way?! Can not buy Oreos, especially seasonal/holiday ones = mint creme!! Like ur idea about at someone else's house though.....lol :laugh: :bigsmile:

1. it was a big sale & ya know us females love a big sale :wink: 2. the "I deserve a treat and can have 1 a day." :noway: 3. Think we can all relate to good intentions however, sometimes it's a real challenge to stick to it! :grumble: :mad: :explode: Good Luck cause you're goin need it girl! :laugh:

A freshly cleaned exercise machine!! :laugh: :happy: Nothing worse then using a machine after anothers sweat is drippin from it :grumble: :explode: :angry: :mad:

Their loss!! Don't put much thought into it.....you have better things to do with your time, jus sayin...... :smile: :happy:

Not sure where you heard that "soy" isn't good for you?! Lots of people, myself included, use soy products on a daily basis & I haven't felt this great in years. I drink Silk soymilk the Original Lite, it's great! You can cook & bake & drink as is, it's just so versatile. My protein shake powder is vanilla, add that with…

Quick reply before you leave to go out! Eat a little of each, do lots & lots of talking, drink lots & lots of water, your bf certainly will be digging into the food as you're talking. Bathroom visits due to drinking all that water, lol If someone notices you're not eating much, tell them you had left over seafood earlier &…

Sounds like a Great Recipe/Low Calorie Soup, but be careful for those of you watching your Sodium Intake, it's a Killer for me as my body tends to hang onto Salt/Sodium of any kind :mad: :angry: :explode: :grumble: I'll leave this Soup for the ones that don't have trouble with Sodium :smile:

@Cr01502....Ditto! I did however I did comment on another's quote, hey I couldn't resist :wink:

@nataliecarter....Not exactly eat as much as you want. Keep in mind every fruit/every amount has calories, check in the database and you'll find out how wrong "eat all the fruit you want" isn't the case! Trust me, coming from WW to here it was like a reality slap in the face for me. Mind you fruits and veggies are better…

Here's an easy, cheap way to make lentil burgers. Purchase a can of lentil soup, add oatmeal, bread crumbs if you have them, some spices and form into patties. Spray PAM in pan and cook till done. Use condiments like a person would on a burger....:happy:

Looks delicious!! Thanks for posting, gotta check out recipe :happy:

Whew....thought I was the only one in the bunch that's cold all the time!! I drink lots & lots of hot water to help my body stay warm. Being cold seems to be part of the plan to change one self's body so I guess I'll put up with it! I'd rather be thin & cold vs. staying fat...I have a lot of living to do, so thin is in for…

3rd shifter for 8 years. Set up your meals that works best for you. Seems each of us has a different way of doing it :wink:

@Topsking2010....Good Advice & I Agree :happy:

Speed Walking daily 5K's made a huge difference for mine, just waiting on winter/snow be gone so I can start up again!

@icimani/Ginny yeah about that March thing? End of March & we're barely above 30 here in WI. Sure hope April brings warmer weather, rainshowers to clean off the salt. Riding Season, yeah. Right? RIGHT?! lol

If you love Peanut Butter you must try PB2.....2 T. = 45 calories?!!! It's AWESOME :happy: :smile:
