Leave! Get out while you can! Before shuffleboard and canasta rule your life! Ok, hyperbole aside. If your heart isn't here(I live in Florida as well - in the Panhandle), start job and housing hunting there while working here. If you can line something up, then you move back. As for boring - eh... Get a place with a decent…

You sir, win your very own crown - you may pick it up from Viserys.

Yay - Smoothiebots have arrived!

Hate to break it to you, but the fresh produce products you know today, did not always exist in their current forms. They were cultivated by humans to have more flesh (fruits) or less (nuts) or to be larger (root vegetables) or sweeter, or less poisonous, or... you get the picture. Humans did that. GMO foods - before we…

But... but... it's holistic (she says as she munches on peaches and string cheese)

My local Victoria's Secret won't measure you if it is obvious you won't fit in their bras but maybe their policy has changed; last time I tried at VS was when they first started advertising the service several years ago. I was able to get measured at a local Dillard's department store, but even they were a little off…

That is awesome! My smallest jeans now go over my hips without being unfastened (although it's a snug push, so I don't do it on a regular basis like I do with the next larger size up.)

I'm 5'5", and I started at 1800 or so calories. Right now my net goal is 1320. With activity (Fitbit) my goal today is actually around 1550. My profile/diary should be open if you wanna see. I may actually stop before my goal weight, depending on how things look and how I feel the closer I get. I set the goal low…

If your hunch was that more people would respond to a thread telling them not to respond, than to a thread that ordered them to respond, you were correct*. If your hunch was something else, then I have insufficient data with which to make a judgement at this time. *-at the time of this writing at least. It could change as…

My vote would be for something more like this: http://www.target.com/p/merona-women-s-plus-size-sleeveless-color-block-maxi-dress-assorted-colors/-/A-14929436#prodSlot=medium_1_34 My Mother in law passed away earlier this year. The majority of adults were dressed in business casual to business attire. (they were a…

Oh yeah, jar of peanut butter, jar of preserves, and a package of generic chocolate double stuff sandwich cookies. Separate the cookie from the filling, put peanut butter on the cookie, eat it. Repeat. Combine the fillings from the two cookies, remove one of the cookie parts, add peanut butter to that cookie and eat it.…

Sometimes, when I would go window shopping, I'd pick up snacks. Some gummi type candy (gummi bears or worms) or fruit slices, and a couple chocolate bars. I'd hit a drive through and two value meals (double whopper or qtr pounder and a chicken sandwich). Then I'd cram all the food down before I got home, and throw the…

Check out RWBY (pronounced Ruby) it is an American made animated series online (Rooster Teeth, same group who make Red vs Blue) and my son loves it. They are actually exporting it to Japan. :) Seeing as my son got me to watch Attack on Titan, Fairy Tale, and Sword Art Online, I think he has decent taste. I haven't…

I have a spreadsheet (I have a dozen of them, but anyway) it cycles through about 20 different meals. Most are a variation of meat, veg, starch. Meats: Fish, Chicken, Beef, Pork. Fish can be breaded filets, or Coleson's catch stuff (tonight is tuna I believe. Love the salmon though). Chicken can be whole done on a vertical…

Also, it is entirely possible that quite a bit of the fat you lost was in the invisible kind. The stuff that worms its way between your organs and makes for people who "Carry it well." Never thought that was a bad thing until I saw a scan comparison that displayed a person with fat all over the place, and then after mass…

Weird is peanut butter and turkey bologna on a cinnamon raisin bagel.... but it tasted awesome. (In my defense, that particular combination started when I was pregnant.) But heck, aren't all Americans weird? What with the funky accents, driving on the right side of the road, and general behavior? (Says the weird American…

I budget them in, or I go walking around Wal-mart for an hour, and earn another 100 or so calories. :) I'm a night owl, I'll be up playing video games until I *have* to go to bed because I either have to work in the morning, shuttle my daughter somewhere in the morning, or I'm just too tired to stay up anymore, so snacking…

Did you mean this one: http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2008/10/paris-a-deep-dark-salted-butter-caramel-sauce/ ? Oh myyyyyyyy. 1633 calories per batch - I sure hope a little goes a long way. :) To match the crappy Hershey's syrup I use, calorie wise, I'd need to get about 60 servings out of it (and that might change once I…

Well, the first one I tried, Blue Bell Sea Salt Caramel Ice Cream, had the little caramel truffles, but not really a lot of caramel flavoring, so I got the syrup. Then I just kept using it (only 27 calories in 10 grams, which is plenty to add to 100g of ice cream. I love my scale) The Kemp's frozen yogurt was good too, and…

I occasionally use it on my hair, and less frequently on my skin. I don't cook with it though... I prefer butter.

saw this a few months ago - seeing as I too have gone down in size since I bought bras earlier this year, and now the perky bras are digging into my armpits because my boobs don't push them out enough, it seemed appropriate:
-
I am almost obsessed. I even went to other flavors for two cartons of ice cream to see how they tasted, and I just kept thinking, it's not sea salt caramel. But it's ok. The last time I needed ice cream - sea salt caramel ended up in my cart (and now I need to buy more, because I know there is less than I budgeted for left…

No - this: "working out next to Joe Meat head and Trophy wife" is rude. Rudeness can stem from insecurity, but that doesn't make it acceptable. And there may be tons of people who think that way as well, but that doesn't make it less rude, just more sad. To the OP, I echo what other people have said. Do your thing, work…

My favorites include the words "Beginner" "Total Body" "Core" and/or "Stretch" and don't go above 3 on the difficulty meter. That said, I stopped doing them a few months ago because 5am sucks. I'm a middle of the day exerciser, only I'm at work and right now I'm using the "Can't afford it" excuse re: gym membership. That,…

Peanut butter bologna (specifically turkey bologna) Casserole like dishes (Tonight we had mac & cheese with corn and sliced hot dogs. I could eat bowls of that stuff, but limited myself to one serving.) Good steak Chocolate tender ham mashed potatoes Food in general, really. I have always had problems with portions. And…

I stopped peeling potatoes years ago. Much faster and less annoying. Just scrub em, cut em, boil em, done. (well, I add butter & honey) mmmmmm

Grabbing two pairs of jeans to try on. Starting with the smaller pair, and having them fit perfectly. Almost halfway to my goal, so this was totally nifty. 3-4 sizes down since I started.
-
I did buy some new shirts and undergarments, but I'm still wearing the same jeans, I just buy new belts. Thankfully work doesn't care. I'll have to buy some outfits that fit before the end of September, but that's because I'm going to a work conference, and baggy britches do not create the impression I need to leave…

My husband is 22 years my senior. We met when I was 19, got married when I was 21. His daughter is about 6 and a half months younger than I am. That said, he was never in a position of authority over me. If you think there is potential for something with your professor, then you should make it clear that nothing can/should…

If you are breaking chips to make it fit the serving size, then you may be going a bit farther than necessary. if it's a gram or so off, and you want to be completely accurate, eat the whole chip and count the extra gram - serving of Lay's is 28 grams. I pour 30 grams out of the bag. Ok. I can either record 28 grams (and…
