My guess was however much additional liquid needed to cook the rice? According to the rice directions?

Yum, gonna have to try this!

Niiiice!!!

A for Aubrey (I see Audrey, with a "D" all over, but never can find Aubrey with a "B"!) L for Lauren

Yea, a couple years ago I lost almost 40 lbs. I took all my old big clothes to the consignment store and sold them there. Then shopped there to buy new clothes that fit! Consignment is good, cause they are picky about what the accept, so you end up with better stuff (lots' of name brands) for great prices. And usually alot…

I was on the treadmill, and the guy on the treadmill next to me was wearing jeans & a wife-beater. He is just 'walking' on the treadmill, with a bag of cheetos in one hand and a Pepsi in the cupholder, watching the tv in front of him. It was all I could do to not crack a smile! It was pretty funny! (Maybe he didn't have…

It's amazing what we 'think' we are eating, and what we 'actually' are eating once we measure it! I love my cereal in the mornings, and had to learn to watch how much I pour into my bowl as well! :happy: I tell people to MEASURE, especially when they tell me they eat good foods but still can't lose weight. Usually it's…

I agree with the above. Maybe make a deal with her that you will not do the bike on Monday mornings. But other mornings you get to. I can sympathize with your wife, I HATE being woke up early if I don't work that day. So talk to her, love her, and compromise with her! If you are talking to her with your arms around her, it…

Steamed cauliflower topped with Nalley's Vegtarian Chili, FF Cheese, and FF Sour Cream. Faux potato bar! (The kids get actual potatoes! I get cauliflower!) :wink:

Thanks for the advice!! I was wondering what the heck I'd wear if I did a tri!!
-
I'm interested in hearing the responses as well. I really would like to do a sprint tri that's coming up in July...!

I don't know if you've tried Nutrisystem, but it was the only thing that worked for me. I lost 38 lbs in 3 months, and I know people who lost alot more than that. It really taught me the correct foods to eat, and how much. AND they have desserts that are YUM! Which is really nice when you need chocoate! It's like healthy,…

Yea, you need to look for the LEAN ground turkey. If you buy the cheap stuff, like the 85/15, it has dark turkey meat mixed in which isn't as healthy. The 99%, 98% etc. ground turkey IS lower in fat and calories then lean ground beef.

I love this. I think if you are serious about wanting to lose weight, you have to do it full-force. "cheating" every now and then should be when you hit maintenance, and can up your calories some. I do the 'one bite' cheat. If there is something yummy that I know I can't have, I just have one bite. I get the taste, but not…

Yea, that is probably the problem. They don't learn to eat healthy and then go back to eating what got them overweight in the first place. I do know a lady who was / is on the HCG and she was very big. She has lost SO much weight and looks fantastic. And she still looks great today, so I think it can work for some people...
-
The HCG diet is really big here in my area. 2 years ago I was on the Nutrisystem diet, and my friend was on HCG. I lost 37lbs. She also lost a LOT of weight. Here we are 2 years later. I've gain maybe 10lbs back. She's gained ALOT more. I was a little jealous of her at the time, cause the weight was just falling off her so…

I'm on my last week of C25K. I started at 5.4 running, and am running at about 4.7 now. When you have to run for 20 min. straight, you're gonna want to lower your speed! So run as fast as you can now, for as long as you can. Then reduce your speed when you need to. You can work on increasing your pace later...! Good luck!

So, I made some brownies last night, from a recipe I got from Hungry Girl cookbook. It was SUPER easy, tastes great, and low in calories/fat. One box of Devil's Food cake mix One 15oz can pumpkin Mix, and spoon into 12 muffin cups, sprayed. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 min. We had them last night, the batter is THICK, and it…

I agree with the above posts. Eat more calories (healthy/clean calories of course). A couple years ago I did Nutrisystem. I did it on my own (buying grocery foods instead of alot of Nutrisystem foods), and was on a 1400 calorie a day diet. I lost consistently every single week. I went from 168 to 131 in 3 months. I gained…

Thank you for this suggestion! I'm on my last week of the C25k program, and was looking at what to do next? I'm going to check out the B2-10k. I have loved the C25k, and this sounds perfect! Thanks!!:happy:

That's the great thing about having so much information available to us... you hear two different things and it's up to you to decide which is right for you. And most of us are here cause we didn't have the right answers to begin with. It's all a learning experience for us. Good luck in your journey!

I live in WA, but in Kennewick, Wa.... A little too far; Otherwise I would totally go hiking with you!!

Watch which types of yogurt / Lean Cuisine you buy. They vary with calories/fat. Dont' buy yogurt that has more than 100 calories. Also, granola is usually a no-go. Maybe look for a low cal cereal (Kashi) that you can put into your yogurt instead. Good Luck!! Oh, and I cook healthy dinners. If they don't like it, they are…

What's a stone? I've never heard that...

Oh! And I also read on a running website this week, that you burn just as many calories running slow as you do running fast. Basically because you run the same distance (running slow, you can run longer; Running fast you tire out quicker and end up running the same distance as if you were running slower) Does that make…

So, I've been running on the treadmill since I've started. But it was 60 degrees here on Saturday, and I had to run my first 25 min., so I drug my husband outside and we ran along the bike path by the river. I kind of think I ran slower than I would on the treadmill, since I couldn't tell how fast I was running. And it was…
-
I do the same thing! Try and break it up, get my mind off of it! Good job!!!
-
I just want to say that I think it's great that you recognize that you went over-board. Good for you that you are trying now to get to a healthy weight. Good luck to you!
