Wow, I had no idea. I'll have to try that. I love sweet potato fries, but I'm always happy to try something new and different for this sort of thing. Thanks for the recommendation!

Holy crap (no pun intended), 109 lbs in a month! Wow. It sounds like she wasn't digesting anything, never mind fat.

I took it back in 2006 because I wanted an extra boost to my already-decent weight loss. I eventually realized it was silly because my diet was so low in fat anyway. Personally, I never had issues with leakage, but when I went to the bathroom, even just to pee, I always "went" a little, and what came out was pretty gross…

I only saw the trailer posted here: http://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-walking-dead-spinoff-unveils-ominous-first-trailer/ There doesn't look like much to it. Is there a longer one somewhere?

Same here. I BF for a year, and once I stopped and put the effort into logging again, staying within my calorie goal, and working out regularly, it started coming off at a decent pace. I tried to lose weight while BFing, but any time I cut my calories too low, my supply suffered. It took me a while, but I figured out where…

I found this after baby #1 when I went from a size 16 to a size 4 (size 2 in some brands) in US sizes. As I got smaller, it took less weight to put me up or down a size.

It depends on so many things. I have two pairs of jeans of the same company and cut. One is a size 14 (US), and one is a size 12 (US). I wore the size 14 tightly at around 205lbs, and it took until I was under 180lbs to be able to wear the size 12s. I tried to wrap my head around how I could wear the same size over 25lbs,…

Why not? I have a hard time working out late in the day because once I'm done at work and getting the kids fed and in bed, all I want to do is read or watch TV or whatever, just relax. I loved when I did 6AM Spin classes even though I had to get up at 5AM to get there on time because I had a great workout by 7AM, and I…

When I found a pair I liked (some Levi's number that has since been discontinued) that I happened to get on clearance at Belk, I ended up finding a bunch of used pairs on eBay. After shipping I paid no more than $10/pair. When I was losing at a fast clip after baby #1, I was going through a size every 6 weeks or so, so it…

I'm a little concerned about your goal of losing 23 lbs in a month. I'm 5'7" and weigh about 175. I'll be lucky if I hit 170 by late May.

^This was my thought. It would probably make me swear off sweets for a week or two, but then I'd start wanting them again.

Did you feel like it helped you with your sweet tooth in the long term? I feel like when it comes to sweets, I have such a short memory. For example, on the very rare occasions when we get this awesome chocolate cake from Costco I can't ever eat as much as I serve myself because I feel sick. (Seriously, this cake is…

I have my diary closed with a password, so only the people to whom I give the password can see it. I used to keep it open until someone, completely unsolicited, criticized me for relying on protein bars. The funny thing is that I hadn't eaten a protein bar in months, but she must've remembered that I had a short stint when…

Interesting! I do miss Dale :)

I kind of have to agree with the Noah thing. I felt like he'd have been a good character to have around. I also miss Tyreese, and not just because his still being alive would have saved us from having to watch Sasha lose it. I think he would have been in his element in Alexandria, hanging out with Judith and all. It was…

Agreed, the car they were stuck in was a small car, not a big SUV. Carol definitely said, "Don't do it." And Michonne was right, something's gonna happen, but don't make something happen. My husband's thought was that Morgan showed up at the wrong time, so he's now horrified that Rick just killed Pete like that. What do…

OP, you may want to check out this group for advice: http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/10118-eat-train-progress Good luck!

I found a pair of Levi's jeans that fit me really well and were on clearance at a local department store. To buy them new was too pricey when I was going through sizes in a month or two. I found used pairs in smaller sizes on eBay and ordered them, then sold them at a consignment store later (because they were still in…

I agree that Michonne could do better ;) Rick needs to chill the hell out about getting in Jessie's pants. I don't know if his biological clock is ticking or what, but seriously, he is Shane 2.0. The whole Pete thing really puts the group between a rock and a hard place. I don't agree with just killing someone. You could…

Well, it's rather boring and restrictive. I find it funny that a "chicken salad pita" isn't chicken salad (yum) at all but rather chicken and salad in a pita :) It's like, YAY, chicken salad! Oh, wait.

^This :)

I agree with this. I think Rick will show his worth, which means Deanna won't feel right kicking him out, especially now that the others in Rick's group are in "leadership positions" (as Deanna herself said) and probably exercise some amount of influence over the other Alexandrians. Now I wonder how this is going to tie…

This might be super boring, but I eat two hard-boiled eggs and two pieces of turkey bacon (microwaved) every morning. Because I have almost zero time in the AM (I get up at 5:30 and have to get two young kids out the door by 6:45), I cook 20 hard-boiled eggs every Sunday night, two each for me and my husband for each…

There's a Couch to 5K group on here that you might want to check out. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/30-couch-to-5k-running-program-c25k

I just bought the FitBit Charge HR earlier this week. Holy cow, was it hard to find! I really wanted one in plum, but those are all but impossible to find. I managed to find a black one in the small size, and when I tried it on, it barely fit even though my wrist measurement put me right smack in the middle of the small…

Yes, we use salted butter now (soooo good and really no more calories than the other hydrogenated crap out there), but I do buy unsalted for cooking/baking. Also, Hellman's rules. I have it every day in my swiss cheese sandwiches every day for lunch :)

I'm in the US, and one of our local supermarkets carries Liberte. However there aren't many varieties for sale, and the ones I've seen appear to be 0% fat :( It's still good yogurt, but I far prefer 2% Greek to 0%. Our Costco only carries 0% Fage Greek (plain, in big tubs), 0% Kirkland Greek (plain, in big tubs), and…

I use half and half in my coffee every day (I only drink one cup a day), and if I have anything less, my reaction is, "What the crap?" I have also started using a little regular sugar instead because it's cheaper than sugar substitutes, and, other than Splenda, I can't find any that taste as good. While I don't buy into…

Hey all! I just saw this on the main page and thought I'd chime in as a formerly BFing mom (I weaned my younger son last May). I was part of a breastfeeding group on here, but when I finally found the link, it didn't work. I worry that it might now be defunct, but I believe there may be others. ETA that the point of my…
