  • I JUST noticed today that the LL cookies were 2 servings! Very very misleading. I've been eating them as a mid day snack before working out. Luckily they're not killing my calorie count and I only eat them on the days I workout...but still! Hopefully I can find the 2 oz versions.
  • Can't go wrong with baked leg quarters! I usually season mine with salt, pepper, garlic, and cajun seasoning. Maybe some rib rub if I have some. Throw a couple in the oven at 400* checking on it every twenty/thirty minutes until it's done. You can even add BBQ sauce to it. It's YUM! Add some steamed veggies to the side and…
  • I have a Magic Bullet that I've had for about 8 years. I LOVE it! Of course I use it to make smoothies, but I've also used it for chicken salad, mixed drinks, to crush Fiber One or bread crumbs or graham crackers, all kinds of stuff. It's probably my favorite appliance.
  • Uggghhh still at 160 today! Granted, I don't make the best decisions during the weekends, but I haven't really been SPLURGING like I normally do. I bought a whole bunch of breakfast stuff to keep in my office and FINALLY everyone else is wanting to lose weight too, so we've all been keeping away from the taquitos. =) My…
  • I love this stuff!! But I learned if you use it every day, it starts to get splotchy and almost peel off. You really shouldn't use it though if it burns. That could be bad! Try St. Tropez once a week, or a spray on tanner like Neutrogena Micro Mist. Or if you like the gradual thing, then you could get something like St.…
  • At Wal Mart I bought this really cute glass thing that has a stick that you connect to the top of the lid. You put the stick in the freezer over night and then just fill it up. It's not all that big though =/
  • Thanks for all the info y'all! I'm definitely NOT gonna get rid of my Light Vanilla Silk that easily =)
  • Bump! I bought Laughing Cow in Light Swiss for two Hungry Girl recipes - the cheese dip and Hungry Girlfredo. The cheese dip was absolutely vomit inducing (I used vanilla soy milk instead of unflavored, not a great combo of flavors) and was gritty and just didn't melt right. Same with the Hungry Girlfredo. It was just so…
  • Do you dislike brown sugar all together? Because Brown Sugar Splenda is pretty good!
  • Hah! Breakfast Taco Land, I'm right there with ya! I like to call this horrible place I live Little Mexico formally known as Be(EVIL)le because, well, it's like Mexico! I ended up here for work and miss my home town like crazy. Hopefully I'll find my wa back home :) As for the tacos, I either get ham and egg or potato and…
  • Hey everyone! As of last night, I'm still at 160 :grumble: But I'm still workin' on it! This morning I resisted temptation to get a breakfast taco (we order them almost every morning). Baby steps lol.
  • AH! I am you lol. I'm 24 and out of college 3 years. I started working full time and then some as a probation officer literally the Monday after graduation! I wasn't used to being so sedentary, but I did ok for the first year and kept up with running. That was until I met and moved in with Fiance! In two years, I gained 30…
  • I've gotten some flack for using Hungry Girl recipes and frozen/processed stuff. Um, not everyone lives near a farmer's market or a Trader Joe's and can go get fresh produce and organic this and that! I live in a horrible tiny little backwards town who's big headline was that we can finally pay our water bill using debit…
  • What does that even mean!?!?!> This was a response to the above poster who said someone told her she ate like a child. That's so lame! I can't believe someone would actually say that!
  • Go to the store, pick your favorite MiO, and carry it in your purse. When you go to the bar, order a vodka and water and squirt some MiO in there. It's AMAZING!! The only calories will be from the vodka. I think Grey Goose has about 60 cals per shot. My favorite thing right now is half a bottle of cherry vodka, an entire…
  • Yes! MiO is GREAT! My favorite right now is the Strawberry Watermelon with a bit of cherry vodka. Delish and low cal. If you're going to a bar or restaurant, see what kind of flavored vodkas they have, order it with water, and then go to town with your fav MiO!

  • Oh that sounds good! I'm going to have to add it to my Nook wishlist! I'm currently reading In 50 Years We'll All Be Chicks by Adam Carolla. I love his podcasts and think he's hilarious! Lately I don't want to think when I read. I have to think a lot at work, so I like to come home and kinda zone out sometimes. It's also…
  • Thanks so much for the tips!!! Those smoothie recipes sound DIVINE!
  • OH wow, I bet you burn a lot if you wear it all day. I'd like to wear one during one of my court days. Up and down three flights of stairs constantly, having to literally go running all over (in heels) whenever the judge snaps his fingers, I bet I'd burn a ton on those days lol.
  • That's VERY interesting. I've been looking into HRMs, but do they HAVE to be tied around your chest or are there some that you can wear just like a watch??? I don't know if I can handle walking around with something like that wrapped around me :ohwell:
  • Hehehe I'm glad I'm not the only one. I listed my activity as sedentary because I'm a probation officer and spend most of the day sitting at a desk...I gotta take what I can get!
  • I've been so tempted to try this recipe! I use kale in my homemade Olive Garden Zuppa Toscana soup, but it only calls for like a hand full, so I end up having to freeze the rest. I might have to try this!
  • I have a really weird mix of old school Skate Punk (Bad Religion, Misfits, Strung Out, Face to Face) which turns into metal/hardcore (American Head Charge, Hatebreed, Pantera, Slipknot, Blood for Blood, Rise Against, A Day to Remember, All That Remains, Five Finger Death Punch), then some oldies but goodies like Deftones,…
  • It might also be the style of shoe you're wearing, and you may need either really thin socks or thicker socks. I played tennis through high school and some college, and we ALL dealt with blisters. So much so that even the guys were going and getting pedicures! Here's some tips that helped me out: - Break in your shoes.…
  • I am a pizza fiend!!!! I don't know of any "healthy" pizzas (other than the ones from Lean Cuisine or Smart ones that I devour), but if you're looking for full flavors or something to eat for lunch, this is my FAVORITE: 1 Whole Wheat Mini bagle (I LOVE these, they're perfect size, and some are pre-sliced) 1 spoon full…
  • The water here in this tiny backwards town in which I have the misfortune of residing will actually kill you. It eats through your pipes, turns your toilets and bathtubs a range of colors, rusts STAINLESS STEEL silverware, rots your teeth, dries your skin, ruins your hair, will infect your eyes, smells like chlorine one…
  • I have to deal with that almost daily. Down here in South Texas, breakfast tacos are almost essential. Someone goes to the little Mexican food place down the street almost every day and brings back one! And since those are individual, it's hard to get away with not eating it. My secretary is also ALWAYS bringing cakes and…
  • Buuummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmp! I am a Nutella FIEND! I've been wanting to try the Justin's Chocolate Hazelnut version forever because my Wal Mart sells Justin's stuff in little packets as well as in jars. However, I haven't been able to find Chocolate Hazelnut in a packet, and I don't want to commit to a whole jar, in case I find…
