:smile: Born in York Maine, married and moved a whole 5 miles down the road to Kittery Maine, where I'll be probably forever. Very beautiful here on the coast!

i was just reading about negative calorie foods. Basically, fruits and veggies you can eat that have less calories than it takes for the body to digest them. Has anyone done this kind of diet? I am curious if this can really help.

Hi guys, I only have about 600 calories left today. I have to cook steak tips on the grill and cannot think of what to have with them that will keep my calories in check.. any suggestions?? Thanks!

I use to have dreams of other things.. not they just involve food:blushing:

I would kill just for a dinner roll at this point.. How much lettuce can one girl eat!:tongue:

If you think something is impossible, it probably is! (the power of positive thinking...)

Ok guys.. what is it that you just can't stand to live without? Mine: chapstick

They may forget what you said or did- but they'll never forget how you made them feel! I love quotes and put a new one on my chalkboard in the kitchen every week... everyone who comes over checks it out. This week was a funny one: "you can get much further with a kind word and a gun, than with a kind word alone" al Capone

I have a magnet my mother made me for that on my fridge... so true!:happy:

chapstick is a way of life. Either you are a die hard chapstick user or you're not. Great idea with the pocket thing!:happy:

being addicted to Chapstick!

I am addicted to chapstick and freak out if I can't find mine in the house. I only wear clothes with a pocket so I can keep it on me at all times... and this is really dorky : Our bed is pushed up against the wall due to lack of space and since I have no nighstand I have a large plastic cup wedged between the wall and bed…

That's too funny about the Abba thing.. I heard Dancing Queen on the radio today and got all excited thinking it was a good song to put on my IPod. Also, speaking of my ipod.. it mortifies my husband. I grew up 80's and have ton's of those top 40 songs but also LOVE Neil Diamond, John Dever and even a few Barbara Streisand…

finding those cups in the child's bedroom and a huge stain on the carpet because one got knocked over and no one cleaned it up. I think my next class for the children will be called "how much does it cost to replace carpet and your mother's sanity"

flies in my house because we still haven't put in a screen door after 10 years! finding the cat/dog threw up in the middle of the night and no one bothered to clean it up yet everybody admitting to knowing about it! rain for 5 days straight losing all the portable phones somewhere in the house and not being able to answer…

the kids home in the summer: the door opening and slamming all day and me pleading for them to shut it quietly because the baby is sleeping. The baby waking up screaming because the door under their bedroom just slammed for the guzillionth time and never falling back to sleep and whining the rest of the day. 40 cups on my…

OMG! How hard is it really to put the new bag in... I've even given classes in my house called "where to find the garbage bags when the old bag was just taken outside" the worst for me is when I go to find laundry to wash that my children have not worn in months yet somehow it ends up in my laundry everytime I turn around.…

Hi I had just accustomed my body to only the one meal. I was NEVER hungry nor did I crave things the way I do now that I eat properly. However, the drawback was that I was always so paranoid of over eating because I knew that the one meal was all my body would allow before it started storing the calories from anything else…

Hi, I am new as of today! My question is simple: If I don't eat all the calories recommended daily, will I lose weight or will my body just slow down the calorie burn? I ate for two years, only one meal a day. I lost a ton of weight at first and then when i finally started eating normally again, I gained the weight back…
