Go with the first one since the second is from illness. It isn't the fluctuations from day to day that matter, but rather the trend over time. So go with the first one, wait a week or two and weigh again. Or weigh daily and track the trend over time. Just don't stress over it either way because it is normal to fluctuate…

Ahhh... Loved this post! I hate the 'bright acidity', too. Drives me crazy. I'm going to have to try to find your brand and give it a go. Currently we are on a Cuban blend and Don Pablo which is Colombian -- and amazing and smooth and OH SO GOOD. (We get it at Costco). We use a press or espresso or drip or whatever floats…

My aim is only 100g per day, but I get most of mine from fish, Greek yogurt, and eggs and then other meats. I do a shake when I'm not having a stellar eating day or I'm craving something to drink instead of to eat. I'm a texture person, so I love the texture of smoothies. :)

^^ This.

Yeah... but cottage cheese is a freak of nature! LOL It's different from other cheeses, though. Kinda along the same lines as the yogurt. But I agree on the fat thing. But man... low fat usually equals blech to me! LOL Geez... now I wish I had some cottage cheese....

Dairy is mostly fat. She could eat more solid protein and get better numbers than she could from dairy. The yogurt idea is good, but the regular ones don't have as much protein, so try to stick more to Greek -- which shouldn't bother anyone with lactose issues since it is 'sour' so the lactase has mostly been eaten up.…

I agree with that you could easily switch out some fat. Put that olive oil in a Misto and add another egg or egg whites. At lunch, drop the walnuts and add 4oz or so of chicken breast or canned tuna. Instead of soup for your snack, you could have half a cup of greek yogurt with fresh berries and a drizzle of honey, or some…

HA! Thank you so much! I've been trying to figure it out for ages and since the forums were rolling hard since last night I kept finding stuff and well.... saying very un-nice words in my head when I couldn't make them work. LOL

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Crap.

I think I got it!

Doesn't everyone eat watermelon like that?!? :laugh:

When I click 'quote' I can see what you pasted, but I have no clue how you did it...

YES!

Where do people get all these great freakin' gifs???? *Edited cause it STILL WON'T SHOW LINK! UGHHHH!!! I put huge spaces, but normally none would be.

Oh my... I laughed so hard! My kid is watching 'The Clone Wars' as we.... read. HA! I think what is missing is mine doesn't say 'gif' at the end. http://www.pinterest.com/pin/221098662929056264/ It doesn't work with the

My stupid gifs never work. *SIGH*

That's good. I wasn't saying people were cyber bullying but that she was trying to get someone to cyber bully whoever's info she stole. Maybe some girl she hates that she goes to school with or whatever. Trolls are SNEAKY! LOL

My concern is that this isn't basic trolling. What if this chick has hacked someone else's account to get them 'cyber-bullied'. Normally I wouldn't jump to that conclusion, but from the sounds of it, this little gem went out of her way and above and beyond to post personal info. What if that 'personal info' wasn't even…

I actually don't do either. I eat 5 with 3 meals and 2 snacks (one of which is actually dessert). I usually have one or two cups of coffee in the AM and a moderate breakfast. Later in the afternoon I have a light lunch and then a couple of hours before dinner, I have a snack. I have a regular dinner with the fam (just a…

I'm betting due to the name, you'll get little to no replies. Can you change it? Maybe stomach vacuum exercises or something so people will take the question seriously and not think it's spam? Sorry I'm not much help. Never heard of them and the link wouldn't work for me.

My hubby use to have this issue so he has a few go-to foods. One is a banana burrito -- usually some sort of lower cal/carb wrap, 1tbsp. PB, sprinkle of cinnamon, tsp of honey and a banana all rolled up. He has this with a latte in the AM and it has good fat and decent protein with a boost of good fiber and carbs. Another…

I rarely drink juice, but when I do, I either just have small one or make my own. You can even do mostly a veg juice with some fruit for sweetness. Like with a Vitamix, you throw in the whole veg/fruit so you get not just the juice, but all of the other good stuff in there, too. :smile: As for ice cream, regular ice cream…

That right there is probably your issue. I highly doubt you are gaining, but maybe slowed down and water is bouncing around. Set your goal to half a pound a week and give it a couple of weeks and I bet you start losing again. When so close to your goal, you should only aim for half pound loss a week. Especially if you are…

Well, I get being annoyed when people are talking loudly ANYWHERE. I think that's the real issue and not the fact she was on the phone. That would annoy me, too! If you're talking so loud on your phone, to your buddy, or even to YOURSELF that I can hear you over my own gadget, then that would drive me bonkers. As for the…

Thank you for some sanity. I was starting to wonder what is wrong with people! Just because kids are kids doesn't mean they don't have their own likes and tastes. And to me, it's CRAZY to expect them to eat it just because you made it. That's like going to a restaurant, ordering food, them jacking up the order and them…

I personally love Stronglifts. It's simple, fast, and FREE! All the info is online and easy. Especially that link that was posted in another comment about lifting for women on here. You can join the group! It really tells you all you need to know and then you can watch the vids on youtube. You also can do it alone or with…
