no pictures (sorry!) since I'm eating it right now so it don't look to pretty anymore :tongue: supper tonight was a mixed greens mandarin salad with candied almonds and a homemade buffalo and bean burger.

I just made a grilled cheese with full intention of dunking it into tomato soup or ketchup like I always do... WE HAVE NEITHER! :grumble: :explode: :sad:

Tim's ice caps > star buck's frapucinos

somehow I've never had the lays ketchup chips.. but the old dutch ones are deliiiicious

that they are. yuuum. I know a guy who used to bring ketchup sandwiches to school. bread, ketchup, bread. that's it. HOW does that even sound appetizing? I just don't understand.

YES! well actually I got chocolate covered pretzels because I was craving them real bad.. and I finished them.. and now I want more Unfortunately (...fortunately?) they were pretty cheap in the bulk section so I probably will get more. grr. I just went yesterday and I got.. -romaine lettuce -celery -brocoli -milk -baby…

Is Aldi's also American? I'Ve never heard of it before

I went to my first ever Trader Joes last week while on vacation. oh my goodness. I wish we had those in canada. I had heard such good things about that store from MFP and man it did not disappoint!

I remember looking into this before I started my weight loss since I already had small boobs and didn't want to become a pancake. The majority of responses all said it depended on genetics, some people lose from their boobs, other don't (or at least, it's the last place they lose). Just like some lose from stomach last and…

awesome info OP! thanks :)

bump!

I was waiting for this!! :laugh: In all seriousness though, I've never come across anyone that I knew or even suspected of using meth. Haven't heard of any meth labs anywhere nearby either (although of course, a random house down the street could be one for all I know). I remember watching meth awareness videos in high…

so much yum in one page. I'll be back eventually with a recipe, until then I'll be ogling at all of yours awesome thread OP :flowerforyou:

I'm normally in a rush in the morning (my own fault, I hate waking up earlier than necessary) so I normally just pack myself maybe a baked oatmeal and a fruit along with my lunch and eat it once I get to school. Otherwise I like making smoothies, scrambled eggs with salsa, toast or rice cake with avocado & egg, toast with…

bump! I'll try this later!

I personally like mine on the crispy side so I cut my chicken into smaller pieces and cook it longer but if you don't trust yourself eyeballing it to judge whether they're cooked, you could use a food thermometer

just had a sandwich! simple meal tonight whole grain bread, bit of honey maple ham, bit of cooked chicken breast, lettuce, half an avocado, tomato slices, mustard and a side of red bell pepper slices high calorie sandwich, but oh well. t'was worth it. looove avocado and turkey together.

I'm 5'5 starting weight : 159 current weight (also happens to be original goal weight) : 140 new goal weight : 130-135 Although, of course, my bigger priority is how I look and feel rather than the number.

Lmao !

I peel him like you guys but I slice them too before freezing. Makes it super easy to grab just how much you need. I love when bananas go on sale at the grocery store and I can buy a whole bunch of em to freeze. I love making the "ice cream" treat. I blend the banana (or bananas) with a but of milk and a sprinkling of…

ground chicken with taco seasoning cheddar cheese lettuce tomatoes salsa ripped up bits of a tortilla shell (I like the softness of it rather than the crunch of a tortilla chip avocado (if I have) sometimes I'll add some other veggies if I'm feeling adventurous but I typically stay with what I wrote above. Not sure off…

I definitely second the blender. Smoothies can easily be maid to be as high (or low) calorie as needed. you can toss in another banana, some protein powder, chia seeds, hemp hearts, flax, etc. Or even just drink a bigger portion! Easier (for me anyways) to have a bigger smoothie than eat a bigger meal.

late post but oh well ! I too got stretch marks through puberty on my inner thighs and hips. Just this week I was talking about it to my mom and she suggested I try coconut oil so I've been massaging that on those areas twice a day. I'm hoping it works to fade them some but at the very least just prevent new ones from…

I usually throw some nesquick in some milk and have chocolate milk! Because well.. I love chocolate milk.

rosemary & garlic basa fish topped with some roasted tomatoes and a side of beets. t'was delicious !

I know, he was really lucky to have gotten back up and out of the hospital so quick but next time it may not be like that. also, thanks for the link! I'll definitely check it out

darn. oh well. same idea, they both have iron xD

I lost at about .5 a week. with a few exceptions of course, but in general it was a slow loss which is fine by me.

Wow! that's an awesome loss for your dad! too bad about the condescending part though, hopefully he sees that you're doing great on your journey too and he doesn't need to do that. Yeah.. thing is, he should have had that 'moment' when he had a stroke last year. And I guess I (like probably most others in similar…

honestly that's probably what it'd take. Anyone seen Tony Stark recently? ooonly kidding. @Jester - thanks for the ideas
