  • How about far enough north in MN to be jokingly called a Canadian? :) I'm originally from the border town of International Falls.

  • No real recommendations here, I'm still searching for a brush cutter. But Good luck!

  • Well, mine resemble uncooked bread loaves at this point, so don't have a personal recommendation for you. However, I have a friend who loves to dance...she'll go out and dance, dance at home, just boogey whenever she feels like it. Her thighs are pretty phenomenal.

  • International Delight French Vanilla Creamer....hmmmmm I'll be honest though, I'm not trying to cut that out very hard at this point. I cut my coffee intake WAY down....so what I do drink, I'd prefer it to still taste good. Fun fact though, I bought the "fat free" stuff, and it actually has more carbs than the regular. So…

  • Some links just for fun. Gardening has recently become my favorite thing to do, and I'll be darned if anyone's gonna tell me it's not a workout! :) (course...this winter kicked my butt and I'm really out of shape, so anything counts at this point)…

  • I think it depends on individual chemistry. I've never been able to find a brand of BC that doesn't make me A) feel super crazy B) feel sick or C) gain a bit of weight. One of the above happened no matter what I tried. I think I'm weird though, I can't take vitamins either without throwing up.

  • I've been using Mudvayne (album L.D 50), Dope ( album No regrets), and Motogrator (self titled cd) the last few days. Kick your butt type beats, and I'm liking it :) They have an angry, but so happy to tell you off sort of vibe going. Fits how I feel about my body lol.

  • Milke, eggs, and wheat bread- at least you have Sunday breakfast lol. French toast :) If you have cinnamon in those spices, that's even better. With a side of ham maybe? Other than that, I have no ideas.

  • I was curious how my sugar intakes were, so added in the sugar total column...HOLY CRAP! My sugar is almost at it's limit after I've had two cups of coffee in the morning ( French vanilla creamer). So I'm going to hide it again.....jeez. I refuse. That's one thing that's not going anywhere, already cut it back to two cups,…

  • My future MIL tried it for a while, but she had a couple accidents :embarassed: and stopped. She lost a little bit of weight ( I think it was under ten lbs) but decided she didn't want the hassle.
    in Anybody tried using Alli? Comment by light_shimmer April 2011
  • LOL- yea, it was the name that got us started, but it's one of the BEST spices I've used. You really have to be careful with it though. Through trial and error we discovered a tsp is pretty much good in whatever recipe I'm making, and just a pinch on individual dishes. It can get a little spicy if you use too much.

  • There's a seasoning called "Slap Ya Mama"....I think it's only available online, at least up north here anyway. It's a mix of four different cajun spices that I pretty much sprinkle on anything I think tastes boring. Just a tiny amount gives you a lot of flavor. slapyamama.com - We go in with a friend of ours who likes it…

I got a puppy last fall who decided that she is a bra snob...will completely ignore the sports bras, but if there's a VS bra within reach.....she's all over it.
