Amazing, beautiful and inspiring!!!

Hi! I am a 9 year Bikram yoga practitioner WITH asthma. As someone else stated, Bikram and Hot Yoga are two different things -although sometimes the hot yoga class is basically Bikram with a few postures changed in the sequence so that they don't get sued.... Every studio is different in how they deliver their heat, how…

I had plantar faciitis. It sucks. I would suggest swimming if you Y has it... do lots of calf and foot stretches before you go to bed, and if possible before you get out of bed in the morning. Also, while you are at your desk, ice your foot. I used to keep a can or a rubber ball in the freezer and roll it under my foot…

Same... really good all day, but by dinner it is out the window. :(

I am the same way... even more so. I call myself a mono-eater. I basically eat the same things every day, with little variation.

Yes... didn't like them. :cry: :angry:

I think I love you! I agree, cookies taste better than thin feels. When I was at my thinnest (137) I was ****ing miserable. Keep on with your bad self!

I do eat legumes... just added sprouted mungbeans.... but I still crave something crunchy/salty as a snack and no bean or veggie does it. Pickles somewhat do, but it's just not the same....

This is a great post - I am also struggling to hit the protein macro. Also, I struggle with a carb addiction, so I am trying to find a low carb, high protein diet. The problem is that beans/legumes tend to have high carbs too. UGH. I am really having a hard time with this.

I love graze! I get one box every three weeks.... its great to have these prepackaged snacks ready to go. I got the low calorie version.

You were beautiful THEN, and you are beautiful now......

I really hope so. But am not holding my breath. Those stupid girls left here there in the carrier if I remember correctly. And it was blooooooody when Carl and Rick came across it....

nothing to see here....

I thought it was good! Oh, how I have missed you Walking Dead!!!! Carl really irritates me, but I understand his anger. And PUDDING!!!! Loved Michonne's back story, gave some insight into her actions. I am glad she found Rick and Carl. Can't wait to see what happened to everyone else.

Unfortunately, I have gone that route before and not really had a lot of success. Also, am currently not able to afford it. But thanks for the suggestion.

Thanks. I just checked online to see what drugs interact, and unfortunately all of the ones I take do. :(

Is anyone who is taking any of these drugs on antidepressants too? I am hoping to get a script, but am worried that because I am taking antidepressants, my doc won't write one for me.

I like savory over sweet, so I add Braggs nutritional yeast, dill, cayenne pepper and salt. Mmmmmm!

I use the Vega protein powder with frozen fruit and unsweetened or vanilla soy milk and water. I don't like it when the shake is too sweet, which is why I use half water and half soy milk. Usually I use strawberries, mango and banana *(all frozen) to add flavor. I make it pretty thick - I think the banana helps with…

Don't feel bad. I spend about the same, or more. But I always go to Whole Foods. I try to buy their 365 brand, but that's not always easy. Is your store expensive?

I was/am goth.... grown up, but not out of it....

I have been practicing Bikram yoga for 8 years, almost daily... it does help to go back the next day in order to get rid of the sore-ness. Also take electrolytes and maybe take a hot shower or bath.

And maybe an anti-inflammatory?

Me too! Anything carb/salty is my downfall!

Any suggestions for a vegan carb addict? I can't eat the usual proteins suggested, and am obsessed with carbs currently. :(
