I LIKE cottage cheese. But I agree -- pineapple makes it taste great. You might also consider chopping up onions and tomatoes.

Howdy Brownkish, First, fill out your profile. Lots of people like to send Friend requests to people with whom they have things in common. I send friend requests to middle aged guys looking to lose 80 pounds. I send friend requests to people in Las Vegas. I send friend requests to people whose profile has something…

Dang, I have been shopping at the wrong places. Where do I get those great butt-toning shoes?

It was a heavyweight battle between ... big medicine and big surgery. And the surprising outcome -- THEY BOTH WIN! What a shock. Take more pills Have more surgeries And don't forget your Soylent Green

I burn around 400 each day playing Wii Tennis for about 70 minutes. I can do it inside so the weather doesn't matter, I don't have to go to the gym, and I don't have to buy any expensive equipment -- just a TV and a Wii. As a change of pace, there is Wii boxing, and lots of Wii workout and dance programs.

Sugar is sugar. Whether you are eating too much sugar is an issue of your blood sugar level, rather than an issue of the source of the sugar. Check the results of your last physical exam and see what your fasting blood sugar level was. If it is good, then don't worry too much about eating fruit. But if your fasting blood…

MFP does not set a TOTAL calorie number. It sets a NET calorie number. MFP targets 1200 net calories for me, but if I exercise 400 calories, then I can eat 1600 and still hit MFP's target of 1200 net. So I am on an MFP 1200 plan, but I eat more than that every day and still hit my target.

Buy some unsweetened baker's chocolate. Put that on your desk. Encourage everyone to have a piece. They will soon stop coming to your desk for candy!

Marriage is a lifetime commitment. He is saying quite clearly that he is not willing to make a lifetime commitment with you. In other words, he reserves the right to leave at any time. You can fight to save a marriage, but you don't have a marriage. You have a man who has an opt-out clause.

Maybe the NFL players should just donate their salaries from the month, instead of wearing the ribbon. It wouldn't raise awareness; it would only raise money. Tons and tons of money.

I'm even MORE lazy. 1. Start with GNC Protein Drink. 2. Whaddaya lookin herefor? There is no step 2.

A store stays in business by expanding its customer base. This store is contracting its customer base. The market will punish the stupidity of the people in the store. Patronize some other store. The other store makes more money, outcompetes this store, and puts this store out of business. Problem solved.

I just walk. If I just walk around my apartment complex, I get bored and quit. If I just walk around the block, I get bored and quit. If I just walk to the store and back, I get bored and quit. But ... I recently found a nearby park that has a 1/2 mile sidewalk already measured out. The walk goes around the park, past 3…

This is probably my fault. I work at the turkey processing plant. My supervisor is always telling me to wash my hands after I go to the bathroom, but I always forget. Sorry, everyone.

Salmon. Chicken. Beans. Greek Yogurt. Almonds.

Step One: LOG EVERYTHING When you start logging what you eat, you will quickly see places where you can easily cut back. When you log everything, you will start to see little victories. Have 6 ounces instead of 8 ounces. Eat 2 slices instead of 3 slices. Drink 3 cans instead of 4. Step Two: WATCH YOUR MACRONUTRIENTS Pay…

[/quote] 800,000 federal employees were sent home on unpaid furloughed 10/1. And while most should receive back pay, eventually, there are contract employees that were furloughed and will not get any back pay. [/quote] 800,000 federal workers were sent home. 350,000 of them were recalled almost immediately by the Pentagon.…

In addition to posting on the Forums and gaining MFP friends, you might also look at the Groups section and see if there is an MFP Members Group in your city. You might be able to tap into activities, workouts, and meals with other MFP people in your area. Do a search on members in your area and see who might be good…

The government did not "shut down," despite the hype from the politicians and media. A few consumer-facing departments went on vacation. The IRS stayed open. The NSA stayed open. The prisons stayed open. The taxes got collected and the checks were paid. Interestingly, while the National Parks were closed, most of the park…

One wonders how the Founding Fathers would view the whole thing. Thomas Jefferson (author of the Declaration of Independence and the3rd President of the U.S.) and James Madison (principal architect of the Constitution and 4th President of the U.S.) authored a series of state laws commonly called The Kentucky and Virginia…

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.

Where do I find these people in the slutty costumes?:love:

My experience seems to be exactly the opposite of what everyone here is claiming. My physician has me on Phentermine for appetite suppression. I was given an EKG to be sure my heart was good, and I visit the physician's office every week to check my vital statistics. From the first day, it succeeded, and I began losing…

Dihydrogen Monoxide is the main component in acid rain. It should be banned but the special interest groups keep lobbying government to keep it legal.

Eating sand is good for the gizzard. It is only when they convert sand into sandwich that it is bad.

I'm not sure what this word "boobies" means. Could you show me about 100 examples please?:love:

I was reading other people's excuses and time just got away from me.

I went to a Weight Watchers meeting once. I was the only guy among about 60 women, and they continually gave me looks that said "What the hell are you doing here?!" I found the entire atmosphere hostile. I have never gone back and I will never go back. On the other hand, I find MFP very hospitable.

When you give him a sandwich, put butter on it -- that's 100 calories. Add a slice of cheese -- another 100 calories. Switch to a bread that has more calories, such as a high-fiber high-protein bread. That can be another 50 calories. Stick a protein bar in his lunch -- that is likely to be a quick 200 calories or more.
