The poster you quoted quite obviously took offense, and your post agreed with hers... Were you opposed to the statement about being incapable of communicating with other humans? Why?

Though I am curious as to why it's "lame" and offense is being taken, now that I think about it. Is "middle-aged" an insult? It's an age group. Just as "teenager" was used in the preceding sentence. In my experience with PETA activists, these are the two age groups most represented. I never said "all teenagers" or "all…

It might be dig, but it was a good one. I laughed. ;)

Well, that certainly answers my question. Have you joined PETA yet? Apparently, you fit the bill.

Not quite a recipe, but the other night I made blackened mahi tacos for dinner, to the tune of about ~220 cals apiece (Husband and I each had two). Toss strips of poblano (or bell pepper if you don't like heat) in a touch of olive oil and roast off in a 450° oven for ~10 minutes Make guac: 1 avocado, 1/2 small white or…

I didn't realize that personal observation required statistical evidence. Let me ask you one question: Can you communicate comfortably with other humans? If you answered yes, then it doesn't apply to you. If you answered no, then I understand why you didn't see the humor in it.

I'm enjoying this.

PETA is a joke with their absurd behavior and scare tactics. The only people who buy into their garbage are impressionable teenagers and middle-aged women who can't communicate with other humans on any real level. PETA actually sets back real animal activism (e.g. protesting butchers who are dedicated to selling ethically…

What book/nutritional program/dietary supplement were they trying to sell you?

The only virus I have is HPV and from what my ISP tells me, Tumblr is not a host. So you're safe bro.

I'm curious, 5III... what is your net with the kind of exercise you do? Are you still operating at a deficit after activity?

I've despised the presence of children since I WAS a child. Told my fiancé that I want him to get a vasectomy instead of wasting money on an engagement ring. ;)

I did the same thing. Dropped ~30, gained it all back over a divorce and move and complete life change. I'm getting back in the swing and I think I'm doing pretty well... I started by focusing on being more active, not freaking out about hitting the gym. I do crunches and push ups in the morning before I do anything...…

We're almost exactly the same on the height/weight front (5'5 / 175) and I know that my calculation for a 1lb per week loss was just above 1,500 calories (net). Maybe recalculate how many cals you should be eating/burning? MFP and other web calculators are a gross generalization, so you should always leave room for error.…

^^Someone got it. ;)

Okay this made me spit out my cauliflower laughing.

I am, and I usually eat pretty well (healthy + tasty). I do drink a lot though so you can probably skip the daily quart of whiskey. ;)

It's a joke site. :)

There's a little bit to both sides, here. No one should ever give you **** for buying a steak, that's just dumb. I, too, am currently on food stamps and I buy some things that are not within the regular spectrum of poverty food (tuna steak, tofu, cous cous) and have received the dirty looks at the checkout...... from women…

It depends on a handful of things... your age, current weight, commitment level. If you're absolutely determined, eating well, hitting all your goals and working your *kitten* off activity-wise, you can absolutely do it. It will get harder the closer you get to goal, however. You may be surprised how much better you start…

I had this while I was on tour earlier in the year and was surprised at how good it was... until i got a few more bites in and realize the fish was still frozen in the middle. Ah, seafood menu at chain restaurants, how you torture me on the road... (You're probably fine unless you're in Bum****, TX between Houston and…

Spring green and spinach salad with blackened tuna steak, walnuts, cucumber, red onion... and probably a big tray of roasted veggies before this cauliflower and asparagus go bad.

I used it when I was much younger and it didn't really have much effect, besides making me jittery all the time. I found cocaine to be more palatable (and these days, probably easier to get in the States). Heh.

Anyone else notice OP's suspicious lack of profile info or response to this thread? Heh.

So it's better to not support agriculture in the regions it's coming from?

My ex got me hooked on quinoa 12 years ago when he started making breakfast skillets with it. He'd mix it with onion, garlic, tofu, and whatever veggies were on hand. Mix in a touch of honey mustard dressing and fresh ground black pepper and it's freaking delicious.

great job girl! and a lovely smile :)

New favorite thread! I love food. FOOD!!!!! Nothing recently photographed but this was a few nights ago... BBQ tofu wrap with lite bleu cheese dressing. After 20 years, I've finally mastered the art of tofu and now I want to eat it every freaking day.

OP: Congrats on your success! Very inspiring and awesome to read. :)
