Make tea eggs. http://rasamalaysia.com/chinese-tea-eggs-tea-leaf-eggs-recipe/

How long have you not been losing weight? A week, a month? Can't see how slimming tablets can be a good idea.

Just got sucked in to spending most of an hour laughing at all of these. Here's my contribution.

That's a great NSV! Congratulations and keep it up!

Fantastic, one healthy hot-looking mom!

I don't think it's iron. I think it's you've started a calorie controlled diet and possibly upped your exercise and you basically aren't eating enough to keep you alert. Having mosied through your food diary, it doesn't look like you eat your exercise calories back all the time, more like half the time. That will also be…

You would be surprised how increasing your calorie intake by just a few hundred calories per day will improve your energy. I was exhausted at first as well, falling asleep for hours in the middle of the day at home and still sleeping 7-8 hours at night. I increased my calories and the exhaustion went away. And the weight…

40 is the new black.

[pulls on pedantic pants] Soundtracks are usually songs by artists and bands that feature in the movie or reflect the movie's mood. Scores are the instrumental pieces that play during the movie, usually of a classic music bent [pulls off pedantic pant and awaits rotten fruit in her direction] For soundtracks I love: Blues…

Well, who does this reflect badly on? The one person who started the thread, or the many many people who gave sincere advice? Something about apples, barrels and not letting one spoil the rest comes to mind...

I agree, it was all a bit vague.

I wrote on the other topic too, but I'll write here, too (because I'm opinionated like that). I'm new to MFP, but I think it's great. Very supportive people and the dillholes are easy enough to ignore if they really bother you. Having said that, I haven't been bothered much by them, but then again, I do have short-term…

Haha! Yes, I'd have to second and third this. I am new to MFP, but I've been around the internet once or twice. I'm a moderator on other forums and we get the same complaints, even though nothing has really changed. Plus grumpy cries from long-term users to use the search function (this actually made me LOL when I read it…

Yes, I've been using it too and agree it's very user friendly, especially with the how to videos. It is a bit of a guilt inducer when you miss them, as it sends you a message that you've missed 6 in a row with a sad face. :-( I was out most of yesterday and it was terribly upset with me when I got back!

I could take on as many as could hear me, because I have a very loud and believable "angry voice". And having a 5 year old, I know all the dirty tricks that will work to stop them with a yell. "YOU HAVE THREE SECONDS TO SIT DOWN OR THERE'S NO (fill in the blank with what's important to them. Usually TV)!!! ONE.....…

Today in fact! Just put on a top that in the fall was starting to get a bit tight in the back, near my shoulders. Put it on today and there's no such tightness any more. I thought some of my jeans were starting to feel looser, but am certain about with this shirt.

I think Gemma is in the UK, based on her other post about weight in stones. But you can buy it here too: http://www.anatomystuff.co.uk/product-five-pound-5lb-fat-model_79482.aspx Not cheap though! I'd rather spend fifty quid on new smaller clothes.

Black Bean and Mushroom Burgers: 1 15 oz can black beans, drained 10 button mushrooms, stem removed, sliced 1 egg white 1/2 tsp black pepper 1/2 tsp chili powder 1/2 tsp garlic powder 1/2 tsp onion powder salt to taste 1 cup whole grain bread crumbs 1/2 avocado In a large bowl, add black beans and mushrooms, mash against…

This was the last post from Sheri869 on any of the forums, and it was several days ago. Does anyone know what's happening? Or is it a case of "Patience, grasshopper"?

Of course non-organic foods are safe to eat. We've been eating them for the past 50 years without keeling over dead. I would also argue that there are plenty of "organic" methods of gardening that are still quite toxic and poisonous. For example, Bordeaux mixture, which is used to help stop and prevent potato and tomato…

Please, if you do give up meat, make sure you include fish. The number of people who call themselves vegetarian but still eat fish drives me mad. If you eat no meat other than fish, you are a pescetarian. I was going to say most cheeses, but was beaten to it. Worcestershire sauce is also not vegetarian.

Interesting. It's one of those things you know, but it's quite something to see it as a visual comparison. Thanks for the link!

Kind of dancing, kind of just made me laugh.

Morning folks! Love what you've done overnight. Now it's time for .... Gandalf Style!

I'd love to try to do a challenge. I've not done one before, but would do my best to complete it! Pop quiz answers: ****What is "HR / FR" and "EM pts".....(take a guess.... - it doesn't actually say in the challenge) - give it a shot...hoping for a few entertaining guesses but try and think what it might be...??? Guessing…

Oh yes. I almost hate to add my latest after Magic Mike. But...

Ohhhh, now you want sexy dancing... Okay. Bringing sexy back!
