  • Nice hair, nice smile. Nope, you still aren't doing it for me. Sorry.
  • Only way I eat raw kale is blitzed up in a smoothie with a lot of fruit. Otherwise it's way too bitter to enjoy. Kale baked into chips however, with a bit of olive oil and sea salt, is very very tasty!
  • All your groovy talk is nonsense, you are dreaming your life away, I can't take it anymore.
  • I use agave because I like the taste and it comes in a convenient squeezy tube that makes it to use. I'm pretty good at eyeballing it now, so I don't have to dirty any measuring cups or spoons for a small amount. It's apparently not so high on the glycemic index, so doesn't spike your blood sugar like white sugar does, but…
  • Nice link, thanks for that.
  • If it's hot and you are working hard, I don't see a problem with it. If it's not hot or sweat isn't dripping off of you, I don't see why you would . I'm with Nancy here. For myself, I would always wear a sport shirt to wick away sweat, but would take it off if I was really hot and wearing one of the thicker bras that…
  • I'm in the UK too and braved the elements yesterday for a 2 hour hike in the morning! I'm involved in a fitness challenge here on MVP, otherwise there's no way I would have been out in that weather. Still, it was good once I was out there, but I needed the push. Otherwise, fitness videos or PS3 motion games like Dance Star…
  • The last pigeon you sent crapped all over me. That's where I draw the line.
  • I have no tattoos and no piercings, not even my ears. I left Canada 20 years ago this September with two suitcases, intending to be gone for one year. I lived for a year in a male fraternity house when I was in university. (In Canada, they aren't called sororities, but female or women's frats, hence the distinction). I…
  • I've used this recipe before, which makes a chai concentrate. http://tasty-yummies.com/2011/11/07/homemade-chai-tea-concentrate/. You keep it in the fridge and add it to hot water and milk. It has vanilla in the recipe, which you could tweak by adding more vanilla if it isn't enough for you. I would suggest adding a little…
  • I think if you only have or want to use firm tofu, not silken, you will lose out a bit on the creamy texture. If you put the firm tofu into the food processor on its own at first to break it down as much as possible, it might be ok, but it still might not be as smooth as otherwise, which I personally would find weird in…
  • I think perhaps you don't realise we ALL sometimes to all the time worry about what other people think of us, regardless of size and looks. To hang it all up on your weight is where you need to accept yourself and not worry about what they might think about you. You might be overweight, you might be a red head, you might…
  • You said it, you are readily assuming! Wow, someone doesn't say anything about your looks and size is as bad as someone outright bullying you? Stop worrying about what people may or may not be thinking about you in their own heads.
  • Is your face wet when it goes red? When you say you don't sweat, do you mean you don't have rivers running down from your armpits or do you mean you don't even get a bit clammy there, on your back or your crotch? Sorry to be graphic, just trying to understand.
  • It's all a bit Magic Mike like. Therefore, hot.
  • I love this topic. Definitely will try some of this advice when I try yet again to start a morning exercise routine.
  • 1. I'm too tired and worn out to exercise. - No, you are tired because you stayed up until 1am, frittering your time away online. Got to bed at a sensible hour and you won't be so tired. Plus you'll sleep better after exercising. 2. I eat pretty healthy already. - True, your meals are healthy about 80% of the time. Your…
  • There can be only one! Blonde that is, and you are not it. Bye bye.
  • Buy a book when you follow through with your targets. Or, if you have an MP3 player you use during workouts, buy an audio book to listen to whilst working out. These aren't expensive, depending on what you get.
  • Maddogg, you keep ignoring me and talking to Berry! This is unacceptable! Goodbye!
  • Hendongirl, we go together like tigers and pears. Meaning, we don't. It's over.
  • I'm obviously the best of both worlds, as I'm from Canada but live in England.
  • Just uploaded this today. Month 3 progress picture. 8kg/17.5pounds/1.25stone lighter and obviously fitter. A work in progress, this is only halfway to my first goal post.
  • I might check that out, it sounds like an interesting article. And you mentioned my favourite, Braeburn!
  • I look forward to being able to post my pictures here in the near future and admire the rest of your for jobs well done!
  • Oh, and I just grabbed one of the kids' toy lightsabres and swished it around a few times like I was a Jedi Knight and that was very cathartic too.
  • I beatch to friends. I consider drinking a cocktail much earlier than cocktail hour. And about once in a blue moon, I have one. I feel sorry for myself and how hard I have it and then bump into someone who tells me that Person XY died suddenly last week of a brain aneurysm and I realise my problems are really trivial.…
  • I posted my recipe on here a couple of weeks ago. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/907511-chocolate-tofu-pudding I would try a stronger flavoured sweetener to combine with the chocolate taste. Dark brown sugar, palm sugar, maple syrup, something like that. Orange blossom honey would be too delicate a flavour to work…
  • It is great that he has a gym that can assist him with his needs and even offer an older trainer who probably has a better idea of what issues someone 102 faces than a 22 year old trainer might. No offence to the 22 year olds out there, just saying that it's awesome that Ray can be supported well when he works out at the…
  • You are very welcome. :smile:
