With a name like chaos... what did you expect? Beep beep! =)

I am just looking forward to fresh berries from the farmers market. I like to leave them in the sun for a day or so after picked and cook them down with a bit of water until they are mushy and smooth... perfect spread or addition to oatmeal, and no added sugar like jelly or jam. Also, fresh spinach..... I love the stuff.…

shrimp ceviche... just make a fresh salsa with no tomato paste, all veggies. Thaw the shrimp, but make sure they are still cold. Add a little lime juice, if you don't usually add that to your salsa. This stuf is yummy as all get out. I can eat a bowl of it plain, but it makes a nice pasta salad and is great on chips. I am…

I work long days as well. Like on-the-clock for 14 hours at some times (not including commute, just working hours). Slimfast, fruit, oatmeal, nuts, yogurt, smoothies... the list can go on and on. Tone doesn't come out over the internet, so please know that most these people mean well. I am a sarcastic person in real life,…

I eat food. I never know what shift I will be working, so I give up on "naming" meals... I try to eat 5-6 times a day, so any given meal will be about 200-250 calories. Except on my days off, then I try to go to a structered meal time frame for the sake of family harmony.

I was TDY and I need noise to sleep... once the stupid commercial invaded my dreams, I figured I should probably order it. Glad to hear it is working out for normal people.... OT: my cousin lost 100 lbs in 10 days using 6 week body makeover.... At least that is what happened in my first dream. Glad my subconcious took a…

Just realized all of my funny stuff is political in nature or highly offensive... my apologies. Except for my profile picture. I luv Cannibul Cake!

I get full... I just don't seem to be able to eat all of the calories. I eat 5-6 times a day because I work long shifts, so my meals are very "pick at this, pick at that" because we don't really get long breaks or anything (at least I don't) The mission takes priority to my lunch hour lol. Thank you for the tips... I guess…

I haven't drank since the Biggest Loser contest started at work... I will be going on two TDY's (temporary mission, like a vacation with work). Its the same concept as being the DD at a frat house party... sad. I am just going to go to the gym. A lot. Or forego food for a drunken night of debauchery:laugh: (Note: I am…

Portobello pizza.... yummy goodness! I used a little bit of homemade sauce, sprinkling of mozzarella, parmesan, green peppers, and black olives. I really like it!

Why does everyone always say that women can't bulk? That is my biggest problem with weight training, and why I avoided it for a long time. I don't get cute, lean muscle... I get scary dude biceps and powerlifter thighs. Does this just mean my mother gave me Hulk genetics? (yes, she has the same issue... I have finally…

I think I tried that one... Its called not reading labels. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/90046-crytal-light-fiber-water

I am totally gonna give this a shot!

I quit eating cadbury caramel eggs. I know they are bad for me, but yesterday I was upset enough not to care. Yes, I know I have issues.... I've got the subscription though, so it makes it cheaper =)

This weekend went horrible... I am dreading the scale like a pig dreads the slaughterhouse.

Even at a weight were I am ripped, I still think I look horrible... but I suck at taking photos. The flash always startles me so I bring my head back and gain a double chin (fun fact: I don't have a double chin) But it is great, because I always hear that I am skinnier/look better in person than in photos =)

This will be the first year we color eggs with the beastchild... Should be a good time

Gobstoppers, spinach artichoke dip, and cadbury caramel eggs.... my kryponite.

People that complain to me that they have been on shift too long on Friday night. I am the last one to leave, and I get here 1-2 hours earlier than swing shift. Preach to the choir all you want, but don't preach to the preacher =P

Thanks for sharing... I don't have any amazing pics like that... But hopefully I will soon =)

will find photos soon...

So have I! virtual High Fives!!!

Very cool... good job!

True that... but as an eventual thing it would be pretty cool.

I would like to be in this.. it seems like every thread I join dies a swift death, but this one seems pretty lively! SW-170 GW-165 I am hoping for a bit more, but 5 would be awesome as well... I need to get down to 160 by June 1st for my PT test for full BMI points.

I lost 5.5 lbs my first week, but I am sure a lot of that was water weight... I weigh in on Mondays, and I am (cautiously) hoping for at least 1 lb weight loss this week... I have been staying within my given calories, but we recently bought a house and had to short notice move out of our rental, so I have been packing and…

Kenny, I will give you $20 if you take the push ups portion of my PT test... I hate pushups =) No? You meant I have to work it out on my own? Booooooo =P

Yo, lemme get in on this! Current weight is 175, looking to get down to the 140-150 range. I really don't know what a good weight for my frame and activity level will be, but I need to lose ten pounds to get full points for a healthy BMI in our yearly fit test.

I'm in the military and I have a thing for the jarhead type... I totally schedule my gym time to coincide with the combat control/pararescue guys. Plus they are really great about answering any questions I have... and spotting...and checking my form for me... I am a shameless hussy =)

Well, I'm doing it at work so I may as well start it here... if I can =) Starting weight: 175 I weigh in on Monday of next week =)
