You guys be sure to come back and post your opinion after you make it. One thing that drives me bonkers is seeing a yummy LOOKING recipe, everyone saying ooh that looks good, and then not coming back to confirm once they've made it. LOL Personally, I love this new recipe, but if you guys find something to make it better,…

I'm using Nature's Own Whitewheat. It's 110 calories per TWO slices. Mmmmm :)

For those of you making these, you might want to omit the salt. I thought when I was reading the ingredients that salt, baking soda, and 2 1/2 tsp of baking powder would make for an awfully salty batter and unfortunately, I was right. I was also not able to spread the batter to 24 muffin pans without filling them less than…

Mmm, thank you for posting. I'm a sucker for muffins. Nom nom nom nom nommmmmmm.... Oh wait, that's probably how I got to where I am, weight wise. Let's bring that down to just one.... NOM! :)

"The reason is, when you first wake up, your glycogen stores are low, so the body has to tap into the fat to get the energy it needs to work out." That's exactly the reason I had heard a long time ago that really made sense to me.....only I couldn't remember it! Thanks for jogging my memory :o)

healthy weight loss = having a caloric deficit of about 500 calories a day. If you need, say, 1700 calories to maintain your current weight, then 1200 calories a day would have you right on the money. If you then go out and shovel snow and burn through 1,000 calories, you are no longer at a 500 calorie deficit, you are at…

thanks for the useful information. keeping this thread handy for the egg yolk uses. i always feel so wasteful when i dump those yolks.

:) I needed this thread today. I'm getting angry with the scale because this is my first week back on the wagon, so I am expecting to see a huge drop like always and I just don't seem to be getting that satisfaction. Fortunately, I'm aware of the factors that go into the scale game, so I'm not worried about it, but putting…

if you are exercising, you need to be eating those calories back. 1200 NET means you should have 1200 calories even after you subtract out what you've burned in your workout. im going to the gym shortly, so even though i only have ~200 calories left for the day and i havent yet eaten dinner, im still enjoying a packet of…

You wear decent running/hiking shoes. I'm wearing my merrils probably. Expect them to be junked out by the end though. The cool thing is, they have this big pile at the end of the event where you can throw your shoes. They recycle them :)

Oh ya?? Me too! Are you wearing a costume? I totally am. This is going to be a blast!

All you're going to need to prepare for really is your cardio vascular system. Run. A lot. If you have minimal upper body strength, try incorporating some upper body work in with your running. I like to use 5# hand weights and do various movements with them while doing intervals....sprint for 45 seconds full speed ahead,…

We've got an annual event here put on by Krispy Kreme called the Krispy Kreme Challenge. The challenge? Easy! You run 2 miles, scarf down a DOZEN krispy kreme donuts, then run 2 miles back. Hardly a very healthy event, but it's always a good time and they always fill 100% of the available slots every single year. Maybe…

You rock. Thanks for posting this. Now I can have something on hand for when my mom comes over for coffee. If I don't, she will bring something, and it WON'T be diet friendly, by any means.

Thanks for posting. I was just wondering what to do about dinner and this is perfect. It's my fiance's favorite, and I've got a big ol' bag of Panko in the cabinet. Mmmm!!!!
-
Sounds like a tasty way to do it. LOL Depending on the number of donuts he buys, it may just work. And heck, running 7 miles a day ain't too shabby :)

Shablagoo! LMAO!

Welcome, Warrior Princess. :) I sent you a friend request. Your screen name caught my attention, and here's why. Ever hear of the Warrior Dash? It's this CRAZY 3 mile obstacle course that has participants racing through things like mud pits, leaping over fire, rappelling, you name it. I've signed up for the event local to…

You guys are making me crave spaghetti squash, LOL
-
Spaghetti squash is yummy. The inside is threads, like spaghetti. I wouldn't want to put marinara on it, but some ICBINB spray with some seasoning will make a very nice side dish. Mmmm..... Another great (and closer to the real deal) substitute for spaghetti is shirataki noodles. They are actually a vegetable rather than a…
