I love this so much. I struggle with the scale not moving even though I'm "heavy" by my heights standards. At 5'3" and 150lbs I always feel like no matter what I'm doing, I should lose SOMETHING because I'm heavy. But then I take into account that I can squat my husband and all seems better with the world :)

are you dating my husband?

so, but here's the kicker... if it's just water weight... and you KNOW it's just water weight... who cares if you gain it suddenly while you're getting it together? it'll go away.

you DO know that adkins is not a life of bacon, steak and butter... right? carbohydrates are allowed. as are vegetables. just curious. im not even following adkins, but the stigma surrounding it is bizarre-o.

why not?

aren't you divorced now? should have heeded the signs...

Flax seed. I make a flax seed muffin every morning and it gets my fiber intake up to normal levels.

Have you ever lied to/mislead him about anything even one time ever? If you say no, you're lying. My husband (and EVERY husband) has pulled *kitten* like that before. But conversely, so have I. If you don't like strip clubs - now he knows that. You need to make your mind up whether you think he should be "allowed" to go or…

this. my husband ordered the queso and chips. i didn't eat any... he ate less than he would have if i had helped. next time? he might not order those. but if he does - we both know i can and will say no to eating them. doesn't mean he cant :)

lately? a flax seed mug muffin. get most of my fiber in for the day, so anything additional is just a bonus! 1/4 cup ground flax seed 1 egg 1/2 tsp of baking powder 1 tsp oil (i use pumpkin) The other ingredients are up to you - sweet or savory. this morning i used the above four ingredients plus vanilla nut extract,…

I wish you hadn't edited that because it made me laugh out loud and i think i love you a little.

define "low carb" - since it's possible that all the people arguing in here are actually saying the same thing. i find that when i make sure to keep my protein at AROUND 1g/lb... my carbs stay at or below 100. i guess some would say that's low carb. to me it's just eating an extra serving of chicken instead of the extra…

i think i do them wrong. i don't get all the hype. maybe i need more weight.

this. it's probably water retention. The pill was ruining my life so I stopped talking it - just started taking it in March - and I lost 5lbs of water weight over the weekend.

i never even THOUGHT to put my chocolate powder on a banana. Thank your husband for me.

im a vegetarian so i used it as my taco filling and seasoned it like i would the ground beef. highly recommend. i also used it in buffalo "chicken" dip once as the binder that the chicken would be. it was delicious - texture was obviously different - but my meat loving husband still ate it.

Rice Potatoes Beans Those are all filling and gluten free. I don't buy "gluten free" foods all that often - i have a hard time justifying the price. But there's no reason you can't make Rice and cheese instead of macaroni and cheese (I do it with quinoa all the time) - and throw in some frozen vegetables. Bam.

I probably should have said I only have two nights of tracking because its two days old. so i hope i don't need new batteries already... it tracked fine all day yesterday. I just can't seem to figure out this sleep thing. which I'm actually really good at and I was hoping my fitbit would tell me just HOW good I am.

haha. if i only had one, i wouldnt be fat...

Check out chocolatecoveredkatie.com ... she has a recipe for that :)

Why thank you. Newly married April 6 and just got the pictures back a couple weeks ago - that was a fav! I love the colors in yours!

i was pu$$y footing around the house this morning telling myself that i would do my workout in the evening, tomorrow, later... and then i finally told myself to just put the stupid DVD in and at least blast out the first set and then turn it off. i finshed all three sets :)

does GF mean gluten free here? just checking. im a celiac... feel free to take a gander at my diary. i rarely spend time "cooking".

I would say yes, but that would be an understatement. Mine turns a ridiculous color of purpley red.

an egg.

I'm gluten free... AND a vegetarian. and have an open diary, if you're interested!

my plan is to just make it through this week and get on to week 3! it's so ridiculous! haha. glad im not the only one. i couldn't decide if it was just because i loved week 1...

funny... I just finished day five of level one today! debating whether to knock another one out tomorrow and only take off Sunday. Friend me, if you'd like! I'm determined to blast through this before I turn 30 at the end of the month!

I just posted that I had been on here for a couple years, but now I'm back and serious! Friend me, if you'd like! (that goes to anyone reading this.)

For Pete's sake, people (I know Pete - he agrees), maybe this is a one time thing where the person KNOWS they should have breakfast, but have some grandiose plans to splurge at dinner. It IS possible that this person is just looking for some lighter fare to tide him/her over until some awesome meal that all you haters will…
