Well, maybe you could get a really small pearing knife and cut-off the outside of the berries and just eat the centers. Seems like a lot of waste but if you're desperate..............

I lasted 3 days on this diet...I had such severe headaches I just couldn't continue with it. I was bummed too because it really seemed promising.

LOL.....I'll make this brief since my quotations and "simplistic facts" obviously rub you the wrong way. Venting is fine and you are just as entitled to your opinion as everyone else. But when you throw around such harsh statements as "Stupid isn't cute", accuse people of "hating themselves", and make some obscure…

I don't know the user you are describing but my own philosophy is that unless they are ASKING for guidance/help/criticism I keep my distance. To me, having an open diary just isn't the same thing. I use the 'if you can't say something nice" rule a lot on here. Not that I'm dissing your rant but I'd say that most of us are…

Love that game, I can't afford a HRM right now so I just log my time under Wii boxing.

I was told to stay away from anything with milk for the first couple of days.

After flying home for Christmas one year I had made it back and was waiting in the airport baggage claim. Pretty soon I noticed that somebodies bag had opened up and their clothes were coming down the conveyor belt piece by piece...then I spotted my shoes and *light-bulb* realized it was MY bag that had opened up. So here…

Amazing!!!!

8 or 9 years ago I saw Ethan Hawk in a bar here in Austin. We didn't actually "meet" but I was only like 8 feet away and there was eye-contact (mostly because I was starring) so I'd say that counts.

One time I was with my 3 year old niece at the zoo and we had to duck and squeeze into a little cave so we could see the under-water otter exhibit. She looks back at me and says "I don't know if you're gonna fit, big-fat-summie". It was both funny and hurtful at the same time especially since 3 year olds don't have…

@Bryans- LOVE it especially "rooty tooty point and shooty"

Diced avacado...my daughter loved it when she that age. Parents magazine also listed it as a "finger food" that they can learn to self-feed.

What does "best" stand for in this case: Most popular? Healthiest? Quickest results?

Be careful with that...it can get to be a vicious cycle. When I was at my thinnest I think is when I felt the most vulnerable. I could work my *kitten* off for weeks and feel totally stoked that I looked good then I'd eat a cookie and feel like everyone could see my failure. Keep working on the positive self-talk. Best of…

We once saw a truck that must of been for an on-the-go locksmith service and the company's name was Snatch-Latch.

My parents have a p*ssywillow tree in their yard so I was just gonna write "p*ssywillow" but then i realized saying "I grew up with a p*ssywillow next to my back door" was just that much better. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Have you tried the cough-syrup method? Basically you find a cough syrup that contains Guanafene (sp) such as Robitussin and take as directed (the same way you would if you were sick) a few days before and during ovulation. It thins your cervical mucus the same way it thins the mucus that builds up in your lungs when you…

Oh, I had a cute beach-ball bump....it just happened to be sitting on top of a big fat belly. I have to imagine it's sort of like what Santa Claus would look like knocked up. LOL. For me, I know not having the belly-hang would have made all the difference in the world.

Congrats on your weight-loss! I would find one semi-small tote and fill it only with your most favored "fat clothes" and give the rest to charity. I agree that keeping everything sort of gives you a subconscious reason to fail.

I am all for the immunizations that have been around for 50+ years because I feel they have been tested and around long enough for the FDA to work out all the bugs so to speak. I am NOT for some of the newer vaccines such as Guardasil and Hep B. Granted, I feel that in most cases when it comes to vaccines the pros outweigh…

Hello, I am trying to lose 30-40 more pounds before the fall (September/Octoberish) which is when DH and I plan to TTC. I have been pregnant twice before (the first ending in miscarriage and the 2ND resulting in our now 2.5 year old daughter). Both times I was able to conceive within 6 weeks (despite being very overweight)…

Well, during the short period of time I had health insurance I was on Joleesa which is the generic form of Seasonique (that may be spelled wrong) and I actually lost weight on it....not much but a bit. Plus it's the sort of pill where you only get TOM 4 times a year (soooooo amazing!!!!) so you don't have to worry about…

[/quote] It is a beautiful place, and there is a pizza joint right across from the marina on the main strip, great food! [/quote] Wasn't that in Tawas?

You look amazing! Great job!

Hello from Austin!

I am not going to screw up the way my parents did

I am NOT *Continuing to live to please others *Letting life pass me by anymore *Perfect and I am ok with that *Ever gonna stop trying to be a better mother, wife, employee, artist, daughter, and person *Ever going to stop trying to find the balance *Ignoring my intuition anymore *Gonna let my past determine my future

I am NOT giving up on the life I have earned and truly deserve

Girl, I feel your pain sooo much. My parents did a number on me too. A tame example: I can vividly remember washing my hair with dish soap because shampoo was a "luxury item". My sister and I were not "poor" kids we just weren't real high on the priority list if that makes sense. Nowadays I buy the $5 shampoo I don't…
