spicy cauliflour gratin!? i need the recipe for that!!!

Not to pick apart this post... I understand your reasoning behind it. But why would meat, dairy, and grains be on there? We buy all the above from our local coop. Meat is organic and grass fed. Dairy is non homogenized and slightly pasteurized. We can (haven't yet) buy the grains for flour and grind them ourselves. Not…

there was a Dusty Bleu Couch that went to my high school

I really really appreciate everyone's supportive comments and wonderful advice. I'm SOOO excited to to get the gym tomorrow!

Sweet!!! Thanks for this. Looking forward to getting started. :smile:

I'm not small, i'm 170 and 5'6" The site put me at 1,200 calories/day.

Ok so... I would LOVE to be able to eat 2,000 calories a day. I recently switched to the 1,200 calories a day plan and it's been super freaking miserable. If you look at my diary you'll see I was awesome for about 5 days, and since thanksgiving I've been on a binge. I feel like I'm a mentally stable and bright individual,…

This is the entire point of my fitness pal- to make yourself AWARE of what it is you're eating, and how somethings aren't quite as healthy as we might have thought. It's your first day- no sweat!

zumba + biked downtown & back home (30 min)

up 2.2 lbs since yesterday blah

a dog and 2 egg laying ducks

My 'why not' is because I have absolutely no idea what will be there! It's a pot luck. But I feel confident and trust myself to not go over on calories. I'll stay away from alcohol and the dessert table and limit myself to one plate.

SHOO! Well that makes sense. I was sweatin' it there for a minute. Haha. You look FANTASTIC! Great work!

You're 168?! That's exactly how much I weigh and I do NOT look that good hahaha. How tall are you? I'm 5'6"

Mine is still in my childhood closet at my parent's house (where i got married). I get to see it everytime I go home for the holidays! :)

I'm definitely envious of those who are able to eat what they want and stay thin. But it seems like everyone's reply has been right on the money- if they're being meanies about it, that's their problem. YOU know what's right for your body and what makes you happy and healthy. Most people are just so self centered they're…

ive never heard of the spoon- always considered my self pear or hourglass. who knew?? guess i'm a spoon!

2 scrambled eggs in the morning will keep you full longer, and with less calories. instead of a hotdog, do a whole wheat pb&j, instead of pizza have a nice chicken caesar salad.

hahaha cute idea!!

As for the honey benefits over sugar, I'm not sure. But personally, I don't keep any sugar in my house strictly because I get the sweet cravings too! I don't buy sweet stuff, so when my cravings hit I always end up baking. So for 4ish months now my house has been sugar free (with the exception of honey and stevia) but I…

That is so nice! It's the best to get Dad compliments! :)

Hey friend! Same thing happened to me. Not only does your metabolism change after having children, but your lifestyle changes greatly as well. I'm a young Mom also- 21 with a 3 and half year old. I lost almost all of my pregnancy weight after having my daughter, but when she turned 2, I became a stay at home Mom and the…

banana and water, then if I can stomach it, won ton soup!
