Terro is the best to get them on the counter. BUT you have to prevent them from coming in. I use a product called Tempo. You mix it in a handheld weed sprayer. Spray around the windows and doors and spray on the foundation outside. Spray in the basement. It is only harmful wet. Once it is dry it is totally safe.

RECIPE ALERT! They don't call it the incredible edible egg for nothing. My new fave is something I just threw together one day. My wife bought me some turkey sausage (johnsonville turkey brats to be exact) Cut one up set aside. Cook up a serving of brown rice with just a little less water than usual. Heat a saute pan or…

NOt sure. Changing my diet with MFP to watch how much I was eating was all I did at first, no exercise involved. Melted off 5 the first week.

Ooh, Alyssa Milano - Since I was a kid and saw the first episode of Who's the Boss right through Charmed. and more recently Allison Scagliotti from Wharehouse 13 - Yummy!

I know I am a little late here but I would have taken that time alone with his family to find out about him from those that know him best. Spent the time with them while he was at work. Then spend the night with him AFTER explaining you are not ready to just jump in the sack. If he responds well then you can decide how you…

I am a fan of curves. So much so (and don't shoot me for this) that I actually think a couple extra pounds in the right places looks better.

Oh, I signed up here. Got my BMR which was 2015 and set a deficit goal of 1700 net per day. I try to break that up into 500cal meals with 200 left for snacks. Usually my breakfast is only around 2-300 so I have wiggle room. It is not a science, it is not an art form. It is a lifestyle. You are really not getting healthy,…

Ok, meals. This was tricky for me too. It helps that I will eat ANYTHING. And I mean that. I work in an office so breakfast was easy for me. But if he is on the go, give him an apple and a banana. He can eat it on the way (not too distracting) and it is healthy. It is not a great breakfast but can get him in the habit of…

Have you ever had a massage and afterward started to feel sore more than you were before the massage? I have until one therapist gave me a bottle of water and told me that I needed to drink this and 2 more within 2-3 hours of the massage because massage and exercise releases toxins from the muscles into the blood and the…

Ooh I would love to but first can I come live by you. I have relatives that still butcher their own. We got out when my grandfather died. Now I only get good beef once a year when they butcher. Otherwise it is just deer, ducks, turkey. Just can't seem to keep enough meat in our house.

I actually fear the day that I hit my target weight. I have been feeling so much better physically and emotionally since I started losing that it has been truly easy for me. Once I got used to eating a deficit of course. But when I hit that target..... I am afraid of how hard it is going to be. I plan to lose the weight…

You know I wasn't far off from his size when I started. I never used to eat breakfast. I make it a point to now. The trick to the eating and feeling full business is to look at what you are eating in each meal. Make the portions of the bad stuff (like potatoes) smaller and the good stuff (veggies) bigger. Then slowly get…

I do not have any pictures of myself that are very good to use as a profile pic. Never have. I have a little red key on my keyboard that says panic. It was put there as a sort of office joke. When I saw the picture of the relax key I had to have it. It is sort of my yin and yang.

I had the same problem. I fixed it by exercising at night. I wait about an hour after I eat dinner. Then do some running mixed with weights and floor exercises. I do this for 30-60 mins. Then it a protein shake to make back some calories cause I don't want to eat that late at night. Then a shower and I am so tired I go…

White tea is generally what you get at chinese restaurants. And yes it will have similar benefits. All teas share the same properties, just some stronger than others.

search for it under cardio. there is also a circuit training listed under cardio if you do cardio with weights.

Oh yeah! Your core has to work much harder to keep you upright while running than it does while walking. This also means your neck is working harder to keep your head steady so you can see where you are going. I had this too but only for the first couple days. Now I am only sore if I run hard and that is mostly legs,…

Drowning Pool - Feel Like I Do Skillet - Monster Sick Puppies - you're Going Down Slipknot - any Audioslave - Gasoline Pop Evil - Last Man Standing etc. etc. You get the idea. It has to be hard heart pumpin stuff to keep me goin.

You need to have a sit down talk with him. Work out a compromise. You don't always have to go out to eat some place that will blow your daily goal. Otherwise try to get him to meet you half way and if you are going to do one of those splurge activities try to get him to do a little extra exercise with you on that day. It…

Are you talking adult beverages? Not sure how diabetic friendly but as far as calorie and general sugar content the clear liquors tend to be better. you have to keep in mind that sugar is key to alcohol creation so they will all be a bit high. The trick is what you mix it with.

Let me see if I can put my philosophy into words. I try to look at it in a way so as to keep in from getting too complicated. All of the things you listed are fine to eat if you just monitor the portions and amounts. There is no need to completely cut out foods just limit your intake of the stuff that is obviously causing…

I drink tea now. Many varieties available. You can also get flavored teas. Learn all you need to know at teavana.com I love that place. There is a store in the mall of america. Can't wait to go there again in a couple weeks.

First of all a billion Chinese people can't be wrong. Ok all joking aside I was shocked at the numbers when I compared brown and white rice. The calories looked about the same to me until I read carefully the recommended serving size for white rice was half that of brown for nearly the same calories. I am switching to…

I don't but a co-worker uses it and he loves the thing. He says it is really easy to use.

I live in South Dakota and everyone calls it buffalo. Either way it is very tasty and in many dishes better than beef.

I absolutely cannot stand when people try to "jazz up" a sandwich by using some fancy bread or bun that only makes it harder to eat. If the bun is so hard you can't bite through it, it's garbage. People forget the bun is a utensil. It is there so that you can eat your hamburger steak or chicken patty or whatever without…

That is a big +1 for all that has been said so far. Actually for me it started after our last child was born when I went and got snipped. But since I started losing weight... Woooo watch out. I think it is the confidence and the energy and the looking better feeling better about yourself that really gets it going. Of…

After my heart surgery a few years ago my cardiologist told me that oil is better for cooking, margarine is better for spreading but if you really want the butter just get the unsalted and don't over do it. I now cook with olive oil, use the fake stuff for bread(when I actually eat bread anymore) and if I want a little…
