There is a place near me that has low carb sushi. All fish inside the roll and no rice. Very good. You can taste all the flavors of the fish. I would suggest you go to a good sushi restaurant and ask the waitress if there is any without the rice

I never thought of roasting them. I was happy to just make hummus and have them in soups and salads. This is now on my list for tomorrow

I have found if I have a glass in my hand noone usually cares. If you want it to look like a drink have ginger ale with a splash of cranberry and a lime. I was out singing karaoke with my niece (23yr old and doesnt drink at all) until midnight and we both felt like we had a hangover the next day. I still have a fantastic…

this sure will help. snacks get boring

if you do have something like I mentioned dont feel anxious or judged. I volunteer there and the first thing you realize is everyone is in the same position noone is better or worse than someone else.

Does your town have a food cupboard or a FOODSHARE kind of service. The one in my town distribut food twice a month and it is usually a good amount and pretty healthy. Mine is run by some churches but you could check with the community/senior center or maybe your town website (if you have one). If this embarrasses you…

how would this diet work with someone trying to lower their cholesterol?

Just over the mountain :smile: Stafford

coming back for this post. Love the ideas. Keep them coming :smile:

all I need are the dates and I will be picking those up tomorrow. I am a very big snickers fan so i will be sure to try these. thanks for the recipe :happy:

Thanks for your recipe I will try that one next

I used chicken stock with water and 3 tbsp of olive oil mixing in some minced garlic. when it boiled I put in a half a tsp of sugar and boiled until tender. it was wonderful and melted in my mouth. I will do this again for sure

how can I post his picture?

We changed our time to be able to go with some friends that are also going. We are now in the 9:10 :)

Just signed up for this :) 9:20 Wave. Team To Bad So Rad. None of us are runners but we are going to give it our best :)

Hey Nutmegers glad to see so many of us on here :smile: My name is Wendy and I live in Stafford. I am a "Stay at home Mom" with the chicks not needing me as much :frown: Time for me. I Love going on hikes with my dog and I am just starting to jog. Feel free to add me as a friend. If anyone wants to take off into the woods…

I love to walk and take hikes on the great trails in the area. I live in Stafford so I am just down the road from you. Unfortunatly I am home during the day and I have a hard time finding people with the same schedule as me. Let me know if you would be interested in a small hike, we went camping near Ashford a few weekends…

I am planning on doing this too with my daughter and some friends. I started a jogging program since I have never jogged (any distance) before and I am not signing up until I am closer to the time. My group I believe is starting at 915 though. I will have to double check this.

I started the Couch to 5K program a few weeks ago and last Friday I went in to my Cardio Kick class and was asking the trainer a few questions about my legs and breathing and she said "come on" and out we went. With her at my shoulder talking me through it I ran almost 3 miles. (with the few min of walking I did before it…

Welcome to MFP. I am trying to lose some weight and figure out how to keep it off. I dont really have alot to lose but I havent been able to do it myself. Everyone on here is so supportive, I really think you will enjoy it.. You are more than welcome to add me as a friend.. and good luck on your own journey :)

I ended up getting myself a Heart rate Monitor and use that for all my calorie count. I think a true calorie count depends on so much like weight and intensity. On a training session with myself and a trainer I was using the treadmill and elliptical for maybe 45 minutes and it was about 350-400(I can't remember the exact)…

Army National Guard wife of almost 20 years to a full time fed employee so I see the uniform every day :)

bump really want to try this

I think I will surpise hubby with these some night. they look fantastic

My husband is doing it. he is 40 and has lost 20 lbs and has good definition. He actually stopped this week and started running again because he has gotten down in weight so much. He started it Sept and does it during his work lunch hour so weekends and every other monday he doesnt do it. During this time he really hasnt…

I try to have a salad every day. A very full salad with everything I could possibly like. If I am using an oil and vinegar dressing I will put in some flavored hummus and it turns the dressing into a creamy version. Today I bought some horseradish for my husband and thought I would try that. It really made it pop!!! right…

My brother was stationed in Alaska and that is where he first did it. I don't know if I could bring myself to take the plunge in your area :grumble: I don't mean for this man to be grumbling I am using him as a very cold person :smile:

Cornish Game Hen with stuffing (which I added a real healthy dose of spinach, mushrooms and carrots) and peas. I added so much extra veggies so I can have the taste of the stuffing but not as much actual stuffing as i normally wood.. Still waiting for it to finish cooking and it is making the house smell so good :)

I stopped going to Zumba because of my back and went to a chiropractor. I didn't like having to go to him every week and so stopped. Just recently I have found a personal trainer who has a circuit class and kickboxing in her gym and she is helping me find ways to work with my back and strengthen it. once it feels a lot…
