Off-brand magic bullet!! :D So much easier to clean than the dang blender.

Oat milk is the best for baked goods, hazelnut milk for the health and taste, and rice milk for the similarity to real milk :)

*drools*

I choose the power of earth! Erm, but more seriously, I hear that 100% whey protein is the way to go.

Mine was a friend of a friend, I really think that is the optimal way to go if you can :) he's already passed the friend test!!

Egg yolks are delicious and full of numminess. Also it's saturated fat that contributes greatly to your cholesterol levels (as cholesterol is produced by your body in order to break down fats). Plus, what else would you dip your toast into??

I honestly didn't even know this was a thing, but it's definitely something that would describe my eating patterns. Oh my god, this explains so much.... Can we be friends please?

In general, nice guys don't hit on girls outright. It's kinda rude and they are nice. That is why you get hit on by creepers. They want to take advantage of women with lower self esteem. If you want a nice guy, go chat with him. He won't hit on you, but you may hit it off :) Don't listen to Carrie Bradshaw... gender roles…

I would suggest looking in to the types of fiber you are eating. You should have a balance of soluble and insoluble fiber (most people eat a lot of insoluble). Another thing is to up your water intake :) keep things flowing, so to speak!

I can still see the difference even if they are a leetle blurry! you look super awesome!! I can't believe the difference. You are doing so great!! :D good job!

ack double post

You gotst it!!! hehe also you could do a few jumping jacks and burn those sticks off. don't want them to go to your waist!!

LOL yes it counts ;) hehe they don't intend for you to eat it! Actually, the calories probably come from the sugar and/or sugar alcohols they put into the gum. You know how the sweet taste disappears after a while? that means all the calories are gonesies :O]

I have acid refulx/gerd so I totally understand. Everyone has their triggers! Mine are fish, lactose, red peppers, and greasy foods. I used to take hardcore heartburn meds, but I started taking a probiotic every day and eating only organic/preservative free food and that has actually gotten me off the meds. I went vegan…

Wow, there is so much judgment towards those of us who log housework. Maybe you just don't clean the way I do? I have worn my hrm while cleaning and it goes almost as high as it does while walking. Since I log my walks, why wouldn't I log my cleaning? Your body doesn't know when you are at a gym and doesn't burn calories…

also take a look at travelzoo.com and bing travel. They have "where should I go" areas that tell you the cheapest places to go from where you are :)

I've heard the french quarter in montreal is beautiful :) I have heard great things about virginia beach! haha sorry I can't give better advice. Seattle is pretty awesome too ;D

It is very delicious and lower in sugar/higher in protein than normal yogurt :) It is made using a different process and is thicker/creamier than other yogurts. If you get the plain kind, it tastes JUST like sour cream (I use it in place of sour cream actually on things like enchiladas), but there are lots of flavored…

I have a knife that I use to clean my teeth with. and my nails. and my eyes. but also I like my safety scissors. do those count? ;D

Eating foods that have a low impact on your glycemic index is usually suggested. I try to stay away from a lot of high-sugar foods like oranges and eat lower ones like berries :) there are tons of websites out there with lists of low impact foods :) Think high fiber, low sugar ;) also, I have gotten grumpy when hungry my…

Probably caused by a blood sugar drop... hypoglycemia style. Eat more snacks :)

IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAND!!!!!~

You look so hot! I wanna be you!! haha congrats on your success! Definitely helps motivate me to get down there ;D thanks for posting!

I stopped eating oatmeal and switched to a multi-grain hot cereal. I bought it at my local friendly TJ's :) Red Mill's Right Stuff. If you look at my diary for yesterday, the "Right Stuff" porridge is what I make with it. I put in 1/4 c. of 100% maple syrup and 1 tsp TJ's pumpkin pie spice (Edit: into a four-serving pot of…

I am just about to graduate, but as I have been attempting to eat healthy on a college budget I feel compelled to share my secret: buy frozen, generic food in bulk. Target has great prices on this kind of thing every day! Yes, frozen food isn't as good, but it is better than canned (a LOT better than canned!) but it is…

I love a good steak too but I don't want to eat one very day, unlike my bf who could eat meat 3x a day :) that is all I meant. I think if you are eating meat a few times a week it is fine. I don't think you need to purposely vary your protein intakes, as long as you are getting all of your amino acids!

haha maybe you should tell them you are a smoker now and then run out to the store ;)

I use Dance Central for the Kinect and I LOVE IT! such a good workout. The best part is that it tracks your calories based on your weight and the amount of movement you do with your whole body the WHOLE time the song is playing. It is great cardio, highly recommended :)

I know how that is! :) I used to think this. I have since started allowing myself a junk item every day and I track it and move on, work out, and finish out the day strong. I've learned that it's all about balance and if you have all-or-nothing thinking then it can really sabotage your progress. I am a recovering…

I call my bf or a friend. It's hard, but calling someone and being like "I am about to eat a huge plate of oreos. Can you talk?" is ridiculously helpful. I agree with the other poster who suggested doing something for 30 minutes straight. Knit, write, paint your toenails, whatever. For some reason, doing an alternative…
