Good on you for making the decision to come back!! I became a first time customer here in July and while it's not been easy...I've gotten pretty far in a short amount of time. Still got more pounds to shed so I'm always up for more MFP pals. Anyone can ad me if they wish :)

Congrats Tim...awesome job!

During my Introduction class in the VA MOVE! Weight Management program the dietitian talked about legislation that was possibly going through to make it mandatory requiring restaurants to post their nutritional facts if they have a online presence. I wish this would go through...would make going out so much easier. I know…

Mmm...I could go for a corndog or two....I wonder if there is a recipe for a corndog salad :bigsmile:

How about crepes? A Vegan friend of mine eats them, she gets a crepe mix that doesn't contain eggs or milk I believe.

Only if you click vigorously :laugh:

that would be 100 calories for men, 69 for women :tongue: http://www.menshealth.com/sex-women/sex-workout

Mmm...that sounds good. Did you figure out how many calories it is?

Don't think it's strange at all....feel free to add me if you'd like

What unit? I was in the 18th MXS/Armament Shop

I was up the street a ways at Kadena from Aug 1999 - Sept 2003.

Thanks everyone. There are some very interesting music suggested. Like I said I listen to a wide range of music so love hearing something from all genres :)

As for the ads being from my search history and patterns, like said...only partially true. I knew that before posting btw. I think it also interprets what it thinks you want to look at since I see T-mobile and new car ads alot...I haven't looked at either on this computer at all. It also ignores stuff...or else my ads…

LoL...nothing, just can't eat as many wings as I used to :D Their "Ghost Pepper" Sauce is frikkin hellish hot!!!!!

I googled how much 1/4 cup uncooked rice is when cooked and its 1/2 cup. So I redid the recipe and it shows the rice was 300 calories, with the total now at 881. Don't know if the recipe is view-able to others...I did upload it so its shared with everyone. This is the link from my side...so don't know if it can be seen…

Your welcome. Yep I'm going to tweak it more. I'm on a hunt for home made taco season to cut the sodium now :)

Thanks for the suggestions. I plan to use ground turkey, lite sour cream and lower fat cheese. The sodium level is the one thing I need to really cut, so going to see if I can find a better Taco Seasoning to use (maybe homemade recipe?)...unfortunately the commissary only has McCormick...so I have to shop off-base. PS -…

Taco Bells not healthy??? Damn...that just ruined my whole day, here I was going to go treat myself to a Chicken Cantina Bowl :(

Bump for anyone that wants to add me for mutual support.

I actually brought that up when I was talking to my friends...that Asian's tend to eat a lot of whie rice daily (at least in the countries I lived in), only thing both could say "Well white rice is bad for you".

I'm new here too, just started my journey and haven't been at it for even a week yet...but I'm up for friends too. Seeing that others will have bad days (Like I'm sure I'll have), trouble with logging and other stuff and knowing that everyone goes through these things I'm sure will help others (and me) in my quest. Anyone…

I'm from everywhere :) (that was one of the hardest questions to answer in under five words when I was growing up...grew up as a Military Brat). I have lived in Wichita, Kansas the longest and that's where I am now.

Wow that is Awesome!! Thanks for posting that! Mind if I share on Facebook?

FYI this discussion with the lady previously married to an Asian man came up when she found out I was making a Thai dish called Larb Gai (Spicy Chicken Salad). I believe it actually has less calories than the steamed rice I usually serve with it.

Of these two friends I know one of them is probably referring to food in a restaurant more, because that is all she's experiences. It still baffles me that the other one would say that when she was married to a Thai man for 20yrs and was immersed in their culture and food. She knows how they generally cook for their family…

You are correct about the Asian food marketed towards American's for the most part, it's also not authentic at least by what I've learned living abroad. I haven't noticed what you've seen when it comes to the food the workers/owners eat and what is on their menu, with the exception of maybe at an Asian buffet.

Seriously?? You are at 190 in the second picture? Like the other person said...would never had guessed that. (Ok, edited that since I saw the topic title said 290 to 178...so guessing your at 178 in that pic. You look less than that too :smile: ) You look Awesome!! Great success story, I wish you well in maintaining where…

I wish you well in achieving your goal, sounds like it's just around the corner from you and you are on the right track in reaching it! Former enlisted people make the best officers in my opinion...even if they are sailors ;) (Just some inter-service joking there) - Retired Air Force Bomb Loader

LoL, I smile when the Jayhawks (plus KSU & WSU) loose during Basketball season....since I can't stand that sport and hate hearing about it during "March Madness"

I'm in Wichita, just joined up the other day. Heck I had to google where "Centropolis" was there are plenty of places in this state that I'm not familiar with.
