That is the dress code when you work from home. At least thats what my company said, hey what's this little camera thing, here???

The cape :laugh:

2009 Pontiac Vibe- manual transmission :smile: 2000 Honda blaster, 6 speed/two stroke – ok its not a car but its waaaay fun to drive!!!! Not sure what that says about me???

Thank you all for the great input. I do realize it isn’t true fat. I was just trying to get a handle on the why, I think I do now. Thanks so much for the input. I do not have celiac, but I do believe I have a gluten intolerance as well as lactose intolerance. When I am eating on plan, I eat very close to wheat free and I…

Actually I weight myself almost every morning. I used to write it down on a chart. I don’t take much stock in it, expect Thursday mornings. I know that weight fluctuates throughout the day and from day to day. It is just that this week it is so much of a change. I am looking to research why. I don’t know if it is the…

The best ones always are!

Only if I get to see if there is a half sleeve on the other arm first :laugh:

Awe thanks, and I have to say in cougar fashion... Hot :)

Hey am I too old to play?

I have been struggling with the same thing. Some days I find myself struggling minute to minute, with the cravings and the urge to eat in excess. I was just questioning why is it such a struggle to just be healthy? Why is this habit so hard to break. How do I get myself into a habit of eating healthy and in moderation and…

Not eating after 7pm.... made alot of changes in my life, this is the most recent and has made a huge differance

There is app for your phone called map my walk. it will gps your walk for you and estimate your pace. It also syncs with My fittness and automatically adds your walk with calories burned.

I was diagnosed in 2008. I have had many significanct health issues. I find I feel best when I eat lots of fruits and veggies, higher protein and lower grains. I have never been diagnosis celiac either, however I know I feel much better when I eat less grain, lately I have been working toward gluten free but it isn't easy…

You know, this is like the 3rd or 4th time this week that I've been called mean or negative after posting what I take to be a completely helpful answer. When people wonder why more users don't take the time to help new posters, remember threads like this. Also, gravy. Gravy definitely tastes better than skinny feels.…

Never said mean, said negative. Also never said the food was in any way mean, smarty pants.... the comments are not positive. This person obviously was looking for some support on thier weight loss journey and this entire thread turned into a sacrasitc thread about the saying. It happens all the time on these threads. I…

I first heard that saying "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels" from weight watchers. If I am not mistaken they are well known for ecouraging a very healthy way to loose weight. I feel it ridiculous that someone who is looking for a bikini body has any room to criticize someone who had over 100 pounds to loose. I get…

I actually do not like oatmeal, but lately because it is easy and filling I have taking pain oatmeal, water, a whole banana, and cinnamon. I cook that in the microwave, depending on the banana sometimes that's good, or sometimes I add some stevia. I find it very yummy, comforting, and filling. Good luck :smile:

I am also a notorious night time eater. In contrast to what most people are saying, I find that if I eat more, and regular though the day I am less hungry at night. Therefore it is easier to maintain the will power to not eat. I think that the night time eating is more for comfort, relief of boredom and a really bad habit.…

The Good the Bad and the Ugly

Funny I just had a similar chat with a friend last night. I was saying that it is no wonder that people are increasingly overweight. I went to Walmart on Sunday and bought a honeydew mellon and a pineapple for 2.99 each. Last night I cut them up and put them into containers to munch on. I would say the whole process took…

Turkey pepperoni cooked in the microwaver for about 45 seconds, until its very crispy but not burnt. This is occosional because it is high on the salt factor and has a bunch of preservatives. But way better than chips and has the same crunch and given it has protien it helps keep me fuller longer :smile: Cucumbers with…

LOL.... I had cancer as a small child and have no ovaries, therefore no female hormes, I started taking hormone replacement medicaiton around 12 years old. My grandmother told me that I couldn't drink alcoholor use any other drugs because I took perscription medication and it would hurt me. I was like 18 and in nursing…

My oldest daughter thought girls didn't poop and was devisated that she did :frown: a really mean neighbor told her this!

Thank you so much for the concern. I have seen a doctor and the issue is abdominal adehesions, caused by radation therapy as a small child and multiple abdominal surgeries. The reccomendation is to eat a low fiber diet. Any idea what that does to your diet? The actually said eat mainly canned or very well cooked veggies…

Delaware, yes it is a real state :laugh:

Thanks for all the input :smile Here is why I even looked into juicing, I have a very senative gut. Seems when I eat too much fiber, fresh fruits and veggies it actually makes my stomach "bowels" painful. I have been drinking smoothies for several months, along with eating regular food, but I noticed that upset my stomach…

Thin crust pepperoni pizza with loaded french fries and hot wings, YUM :love:

Thanks this is very helpful. I think I will look into that app. I am notourious for all or nothing, so I jump in both feet, too much too fast get fustrated and quit. This slow and steady might be the ticket. thank you :)
