A friend of mine makes platters of these for parties, but uses lightly blanched asparagus instead of the pickle/hot pepper. They are dangerous, and need to be kept far away from me...

+1!!

Hey! No sense in shaming yourself, hun! You know what track to get on. Just be patient, consistent, and remember that everything is alright in moderation. Stick to your plan, don't deprive yourself, and keep at it! You can do this. :flowerforyou: Also, I wanted to add that the tone of your post struck a bit of a nerve with…

Mmmmmm... That is some delicious tasting TRUTH, right there. ^^

I love it with a little smoked paprika, crumbled feta cheese, and green onions!

1) 20's. 2) 160 lb. 3) Alberta Canada. 4) Sedentary (desk job) with frequent exercise. 5) I exercise 5 days a week. 6) I eat breakfast. 6) Dinner is my largest meal. 7)I eat 5 times a day (Breakfast, Lunch, Snack, Dinner, Snack) 8) I drink about 7 cups of water a day. 9) I avoid temptations by making homemade snacks easily…

I love food (I eat a lot of it), and I love running (5 days a week)! Friend request sent. :bigsmile:

I have the same issue! But instead of hating on the weekends, I try my best to just balance everything out. For instance, I knew that I was going to a BBQ on Saturday night with my friends and was going to be eating smoked sausages and drinking (lots of) beer. So I made sure to get in a solid 10k run on Saturday morning to…

Congratulations! That's very exciting. Good job on signing up, and starting the C25K program! Now the key will be sticking to it, being forgiving during your setbacks, and getting your butt to the run on race day. :wink: I did the exact same thing for my first 5K. Stay focused and you will have an awesome experience. It…

My boyfriend and I are very cuddly! ...except when we want to sleep. It's usually a kiss goodnight, and we both roll over to sleep on our tummies and hug our pillows. Haha! We save our hugging and canoodling for our waking hours.

Right on!

My boyfriend surprised me with flowers and dinner out last night - no occasion! Such a happy occurrence is not worth stressing over, but instead calls for celebration. We headed to a pub where I ordered an italian BLT (that they make out of bacon, kale, tomato, garlic aoli and bocconcini cheese on a foccacia bun - DROOL)…

:laugh:

Amazing difference! Thank you for this post. I don't think I will ever stop running (I really truly love it), but I am certainly inspired to start lifting! Thanks again! :drinker:

OOP. I was waiting for someone to call us on that one. :blushing: Proceed...

Ditto! Except my spice of choice is smoked paprika - or honey and dill! *drool*

Today is Friday, and I've scheduled a double workout just so that I can consume nearly 1200 cals of pub grub and beer this evening alone. Never mind what I've already eaten today! :drinker:

In because Friday. :happy: Also, I have to add, I LOVE cauliflower. But I eat it AS cauliflower. If I want rice, pizza, or 'buffalo wings', I will eat rice, pizza, or 'buffalo wings', thank you very much! :drinker:

No need for me to elaborate on the already abundant and well-stated responses. I'm just here for the gifs, and the hope that OP will return with another nugget of wisdom to dissect. :drinker:

I don't understand the folks who complain about "rude" and "mean" people. Or folks who feel the need to "stay out of the forums". I have been here since August of last year and have routinely posted on the forum, including a number of my own threads asking vulnerable and simple (stupid?) questions. Being open to advice,…

Don't forget the Jesus Cheese! Swiss.... "Holy".... I'll show myself out. :blushing:

Dog crap is natural. Should I eat that instead? Seems legit.

Wait... So people who are voicing their opinions are pricks, but when you voice yours you are not a prick. Even when calling other people pricks. Got it. I usually avoid these petulant and redundant "rudeness" threads, but my BS-metre is overloaded today and I'm beginning to behave out of character. :explode:

Agreed.

I should add as well... A couple of weeks in, I developed a terrible case of runner's knee. Instead of being stubborn and running through the pain, which would have injured me and possibly stopped me from running altogether, I did some research and took care of myself. I learned some foam rolling techniques and a proper…

Do not feel ashamed - this process is totally normal! Good for you for giving it a shot, and keep at it. I felt the same way when I first started the C25K program, but now I am training for a 10K race and running is my LIFE. I do it everyday for the mental, and emotional benefits. Nevermind what it's done for my fitness!…

Wow! You look like a completely different (and much younger) person!

*JAW ON FLOOR* You are amazing!

At my thinnest in high school I had pretty large breasts anyway - a size C. Then over the next few years I gained weight and they went up to a D. I have spent the last 2-3 years losing all that extra weight (I am 5 lbs away from my goal weight right now) and I am currently a size... ...D. Still. They ain't going anywhere.…

Spinach salad with red peppers, cucumbers, white onion, feta cheese, slow-roasted chicken (homemade), and poppyseed dressing. My favourite! I literally have this salad at least 3 times a week.
