Hello! Your post is almost one year old but achalasia being such a rare disease it's not surprising that's not many people answered. But here I am! I also have achalasia, had the HM but I'm unfortunately what they call "end stage" meaning I'm mostly on a puree diet, except for a few solid foods. I don't know what you can…

yeah that's what I thought too. I gave a little catnip to my cats, once in awhile, and beside sniffing, licking it a little he was all "meh, don't give a damn"... then I saw him playing outside. He was chewing some plants...One morning he came back and vomitted all over the patio. No catnip here, I think kitty is into much…

I just checked and 3 oz from a squirrel is 147 calories. Not lying. I guess a mouse is probably half the calories? It's very high in protein. You could cook it in a catnip sauce and serve it to your kittykat!

I always liked Johnny Galecki from Roseanne-in-the-90s and now The Big Bang Theory, I just love the way he talks. I don't know why. LOL I think I like dark,tiny man. I think I have more girl crushes. Hannah Simone (Cece from NewGirl) Kaley Cuoco Mila Kunis

WOAH that is soooo cooooool! I think my absolute dream would be to have an arcade machine right at home.

I still own a gorgeous Atari 2600. And I still plug it and play a few times/year. I have the Absolute Sandman collection, I'm in love with computers since 1983. And yes, I lived in secret but now I'm out.

I love this one: http://vegweb.com/recipes/feel-better-no-chicken-soup (but I don't use yeast, and I made it once with Organic chicken broth, very good. But this one is my favorite: http://www.ricardocuisine.com/recipes/428-cream-of-sweet-potato-apple-and-clove-soup-

My goal was always to be healthy and cut the crap. I believe life is too short to starve yourself. I like eating, I just try to make better choices!

Outsourced! not the sitcom who played one year on NBC, the movie. Same theme (american guy working in India) but not a comedy, but a really beautiful, feel-good movie. I also really liked "The Way' with Martin Sheen.

Being partially fake is the new trend!

Hellllooooooooooooo I am there! I guess I am totally fake. I am trying out eating Steel Cut oatmeal +vanilla almond milk this morning, not for diet or anything but just because I read in some mag that Kaley Cuoco from Big Bang Theory said it taste good. I also love to talk about unimportant things like nail polish colors.…

As for recipes you can make chicken/turkey burger, Chilis (with beans), thai food (just be careful and make your own sauce with chili peppers/lemon/soya sauce)...

I took a look at your diary, if it's an allergy and not an intolerance you should cut ranch salad dressing: it usually contains milk and lactic acid, also be careful with bread. My aunt with a beef/milk allergy almost got killed by a slice of bread...

good point. so my question is: are you ALLERGIC or is it an intolerance? yes I know someone who has that kind of allergy-she developped a reaction to dairy first and years later developped an allergy to beef. Then you have to be very careful because there are beef proteins and dairy in a lotta things (example: soups!). If…

Seriously I can't. I have to eat a bit. -having healthy-tasty snacks ready-to-eat: when I open the fridge door OH I see those delicious apples with a slice of cheese (much better than my usual bag of chips) -doing my nails: when I'm applying nail polish I just cannot touch chips. -I have a popcorn machine (air-popped)

...are your taking med for your hypothyroïdism? They could be responsible. Did you see a dietitian?

I eat the same thing almost every morning and it's under 300 calories: -one organic egg -one slice of Kraft single (very unhealthy and chemical but seriously I don't care...sometimes I take a slice of emmental instead) -one slice of lean ham (ask your butcher to slice it very thin -english muffin. If I crave bacon I HAVE…

WOW this is crazy! You all look amazing guys!!! Keep on the great work!

you've said it. I stopped getting on the scale everyday once I realized my weight could change more/less 5 pounds in a day. Depending on what I eat, if I pooped, if I drank enough water, if my period is coming, etc. Now I weight myself once every week. Enough.

Allergies were killing me. I'm not even joking. It was bad to the point I had sores in my mouth every spring, couldn't eat anything without my mouth itching. I had urticaria. Benadryl or Allegra-over the counter stuff like that wasn't enough I had to take Atarax+Nasonex. I had chronic sinusitis and ended up having surgery.…

I was sweating way more than when I go out for a run or a vigorous walk... and yes, it looked like I was attached to a windmill! LOL Oh now I really want YourShape Fitness for Kinect, sounds awesome. Thanks

I have one from Lululemon that is pretty good, called Ta ta tamer and it has adjustable straps. It's very soft and comfortable. I also have one from Champion, found it at TJMaxx

hhuuuuum sounds delicious!

never ate seaweeds salad. Big drama in my life: I don't like seafood.Well, except fishsticks with ketchup! LOL! But I really love Sushis ( I eat veggie-sushis!) I don't like NORI (the sheet of seaweed when it's "outside" the roll, I like when the rice is outside and the nori inside. I don't know if seaweeds taste exactly…

WOW!!!:smile: AWESOME job on going below 180!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ate lasagna too a few days ago. I needed some comfort food:wink: I know it's full of cals but it's healthy so I don't mind once in awhile...My boyfriend and I made homemade bolognese sauce it was delicious!

...and I am Stefwhop Who or stefwhop (with hotmail addy)

Hello amflautist! glad you're here!!! hum okay. So my weight hasn't change this week. My foot still hurts like hell so I'm really trying to cut back on my portions since I cannot go walking or running. I'm cooking this right now, kinda mexican soup.…

Yeah, I gained a pound.:mad: Since I cannot go walking as much as I used to I'm really just trying not to gain too much weight! Gush, it's HARD. :sick:

ahhh tootsie rolls... I hope it's nothing serious. Great job not eating the feelings! Here too, hard week. Last night I was an emotional wreck because I got bad news at the Dr's (my foot has been hurting for 1 month and it seems they cannot do anything about it...). I REALLY wanted to buy a huge bag of Lay's (KETCHUP…
