Number 1. Number 2 guy looks scary.

I just discovered a new cheap and healthy food secret. There's a new Asian food market that opened in my neighbourhood. I just got a chance to go today. The prices were ridiculously cheap and they had fruits and vegetables I've never seen before. What a great way to get excited about eating your fruits and veggies. I want…

If you have a Farmers market in your area start there and build your menu around the deals you get. You need a real farmers market though. We have a couple of real ones in the city I live in and then a bunch of fancy markets that call themselves farmers markets but are really expensive. The really good farmers market in my…

There are some great sandwich ideas on this thread. The best sandwich I ever had was a BLT with avocado on an everything bagel. I haven't had one of those in a long time and probably shouldn't have one for a long time.

When I was 12 my Mom got our first microwave. It came with a book saying you could cook anything in it. My mom cooked a chicken in it....just no.

I love this style so much. Women back then knew how to work their curves. I found a couple of great dresses on Mod Cloth. So cute.

I trained as a Chef and basically processing a food is changing a food from one form to another so technically slicing a tomato is processing it. Most people when they talk about processed foods are referring to foods with chemicals or additives. Both meanings are correct but I don't think anyone would consider the first…

This is what I'm thinking. Maybe you're reading too much into the likes OP. maybe she just thought the pictures were nice and she's happy for you guys so she liked the pics. Why do you care anyways. I know very little deliberation goes into alot of the things I like on facebook. If someone ever tried to analyse me based on…

I think you did everything in your power to return the money and point out the mistake. If its going to make you feel guilty to keep it donate the card to a homeless shelter or somewhere. Maybe they can buy sleeping bags or a table or something.

You could get one of these things

I used to like every kind of fast food but one by one each place I used to like served me something gross that completely turned me off from them. A lot of places will serve things that don't look or taste fresh. I think foods that used to get thrown out because they are too old to serve are being served to customers.…

I kind of get what you're going through. I changed careers a couple of years ago. I went from being a Chef where I was always running back and forth to the walk in and on my feet all day to working at a desk job. The first couple of weeks were the worst. I was fidgety and I wasn't used to sitting still. Eventually you do…

You are going to be walking so much that unless you completely throw your healthy eating lifestyle out the window you will be fine. I went and was eating ice cream, French fries, dole whip and Mickey bars all day and didn't gain an ounce. If you go and actually attempt to make healthy choice you will probably lose weight.…

Make your own. It's cheap and easy and you know exactly what's in there. Vinaigrette is basically 3 parts oil to one part viniger. You can add a little Dijon to keep it from separating. Then have fun with it by adding whatever herbs you have or add finely chopped garlic, shallots, peppers or what ever you want. Instead of…

They have one for ice too. The comments are hilarious. http://www.food.com/recipe/ice-cubes-420398

Wow...you look like a professional athlete. What an amazing transformation. WTG!

I see it too. It seems pretty significant. You should try using a measuring tape. I'll bet you'd really notice then.

I made a smoothie today

Ooooh ...or what about caprese style? Fresh heirloom tomatoes with slices of buffalo mozzarella, fresh basil, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. If you want a show stopping salad variate between red and yellow slices of tomato and stack it like a Napoleon. Top the stack with baby pea shoots or sprouts and drizzle the vinegar…

I love asparagus. Grilled, blanched or sautéed or any way I can get them. Celeriac is my favorite in place of mashed potatoes mashed vegetable. The roasted carrots sounded good. Try it with a little cumin and orange juice next time...divine. Green beans are fantastic. Little zucchinis or eggplants can be hollowed out and…

I'm a bit of a picky eater. I'm mostly just very particular about how foods are prepared. It's gotten to the point that its rare for me to actually enjoy a meal out. I know I could have done it better and cheaper myself.

I just sent you a friend request

Wow...you can really see the difference. It looks like you stand taller and straighter in the after pics. Your weight loss must be helping your posture. WTG! Keep up the good work.

He's out there. I had 3 when I met my DH.

I have 4. I sent you a friend request. Anyone can add me too.

Wow...even your face looks different. You should be so proud. You look great.

I think it is possible. It could be the caffeine. I used to have a Diet Pepsi habit and when I quit drinking it it took me several attempts. By day 3 I would get the worst headaches. I have a good friend who had the same experience. I'm not a coffee drinker so it was my main source of caffeine. I thought maybe it was some…

I remember a lot of these toys. This way my favourite Barbie

I'm pretty sure I'm a super taster too. Foods and drinks other people like taste like poison to me. I have to spit it out. Coffee is one example, grapefruit and licorice too. I used to have a pretty serious Pepsi habit. I couldn't even stand the taste of Diet. Forget water. Eventually I quit Pepsi and started to get used…

For people who are going to die if they don't get the weight off quickly it may an option. But I agree...a last resort only. You have to be at least 100 lbs overweight. It's a brutal surgery. The stuff Al Roker said about how he pooped his pants at the White House is just heartbreaking. I can't imagine how awful it would…
