This confused me too, but I decided to do the exact same thing as suggested above! If my marinade recipe is 1 cup and after marinating, I have 7/8 cup left, I know that 1/8 cup was absorbed into the meat. So when I log it, I log 1/8 of my recipe. ????

Also, does this mean going vegetarian can be stinky?! Haha!

My Mom's trick when making southern pinto beans and corn bread was to boil the pintos, drain the water, and then re-boil or however you cook them. Her trick was dumping the first water, as this contained most of the methane inducing enzymes. Her trick to cornbread was bacon grease and another tip on the pintos is add ham.…

The downward trend looks great! Yay! Someone mentioned sodium, and I know that whenever I consume a lot of sodium the day or so before weighing-in, I tend to have water weight.

It's surprisingly good! I made it up one time when I ran out of lemon juice. Now I mix the two. Yummy!

My weight didn't change for WEEKS. It was so frustrating. I would weigh myself daily, and one day it would go down 0.5 lbs, the next day go up 0.5 lbs. Finally I decided to weigh myself once a week, upon waking up on Monday (after "voiding my bladder" as Sheldon on Big Bang Theory would say!). I strip down to my bra and…

Hey doll! Ugh. I hate when there's nothing to eat or everyone wants to go out to eat or bring home take-away meals. What I do is *if* I can, I try to plan the rest of my day around the meal so that I don't go over my calorie budget, or I eat only a portion (maybe half) of the food and save the rest as leftovers. I've also…
