Oooh!! Pick this guy!! He's got his priorities straight! Bacon, and than coffee!:drinker: ....we need a bacon eating emoticon!

Say hi, and take you home for coffee and cookies! :)

There are also, hopefully, those thinking about cleanses/detoxes that read this and changed their mind, but maybe just don't post on the boards.

This is just a common issue on the boards. People seem to have a TL, DR mentality and just see what they want to see, or read a title and not the actual post. The information provided is a great read and I totally agree with it and bookmarked the links. There was another post in Motivation and Support where a lady posted…

Okay...wow....did it occur to you that a lot of people are assuming that this is the place to come if you want a cleanse? They are not actually reading what you posted.

In for funny gym fails!

Wow....I think we might need a do over here. One with a title that doesn't sound like its encouraging people to come here looking for a cleanse.

This. It bugs the crap out of me when someone announces that they are doing a gluten free diet and they don't have a sensitivity to it. Why do it than?

I weigh it raw. It gains volume when you cook it, and unless you are cooking it in calorie heavy broth, water won't add calories. Like someone said, even weighing it raw, its still a disappointing amount. I always double my serving and make room in my calories for it.

Don't mind me...just bumping so I can make these. :)

What sort of jerkwad would ruin snap peas like this?? This doesn't even sound appetizing. :(

I am 5'3" and have a lightly active job and am set to lose 1lb a week and have 1600 calories. How much are you trying to lose each week? If you are set to 1lb a week, and eat exercise calories, you can easily eat closer to 2000 calories and still lose weight. Maybe re-adjust your settings. Or work out and eat back your…

There is a product called Soft paws that covers the cats nails and keeps them from destroying your furniture. Its better than declawing a cat. Of course I never heard of them until after all our furniture was destroyed.

Squirrels would probably avoid that chemical fake stuff. I used that stuff on my last attempt to lose weight, until someone told me about how many calories are actually in it. Now I just stick to real butter since its easier to track and weigh.

Try photobucket! Its free! Or even simpler, add a pic of them to your profile pictures and make it your main picture.

Did you ask him to explain what he meant by that? Can you call him and make sure he didn't mean that was all you are supposed to eat? I would hope he was just giving an example of snack ideas, in addition to actual food.

Something as simple as a walk IS a workout, no matter what anyone else says. Especially if you are just starting out.

Weigh everything before its cooked, because meats lose volume and pasta gains volume. This way you won't underestimate how much you are eating.

A coworker told me she was doing a cinnamon diet where you have a scoop of cinnamon every day and this is all I could picture:

If we get a bunch of boxes in and I am alone and finish them, I'll re-tape the boxes and stack them back up like I didn't just bust my hump getting them done. I'll leave a note apologizing for not doing them and than wait for someone to yell at me. I even did that to a fellow employee who was working on a bunch of small…

I've done several, from Atkins, which I loved, to the grapefruit diet, which I didn't care for, but I did learn to like pink grapefruit. The dumbest one was one my mom forced me to do when I was 14. It was called a chemical diet and you had to eat certain foods together, and the claim was that the chemical reactions made…

You look awesome!! You should definitely be very proud of your results! :) I've found, this go round, that having fellow Whovians on board, seems to have made a difference. :)

Dessert and coffee. Won't live without either. I just stick to one cup of coffee a day and work my desserts into my calories.

Are you stuck having to hire her since you submitted the background check? If not, I would have reminded her its not wise to snap at someone in HR, before you even start work. Just don't be stressed over the snot trying to make you look bad. You only have to worry about what your supervisor thinks, and I'm sure the mean…

I would.....whenever I got around to it and I got my husband to log it for me.

I was laughing at the cuteness of the thread, and than wondered at what point was the butt hurt going to happen. And for the record, cats will chew anything in site. I have to pull all things plastic away from my cats, or they will chew on everything in sight. I can't even leave a simple box of tissues out, or one of them…

I've only blocked one person who couldn't take a hint and wouldn't back off after I removed them and told them why.

You need to invest in a food scale and remember to weigh meats and potatoes before they are cooked, because they lose volume when cooked, and you can under-estimate the calories consumed. Weigh pasta and rice before its cooked, because they gain volume when cooked, and you don't want to over-estimate either. For exercise,…
