  • I know they have some of the vegan cheeses at Kroger in the nature mart section. I've seen it around at some other chain groceries too.
  • When I was living with my parents this is how I handled it as well. Mom and I would shop together and anything I ate they didn't I'd buy for myself and then pitch in on the stuff I did eat. It wasn't hard to prepare "extra sides" and then prepare the meat in a way we would all eat or set some aside before adding sauce or…
  • Wow, my coworkers are always supportive when I say 'no, I'm watching what I eat.' It is a smaller community though. Whenever they're ordering out I just pick something light off the menu and save part to incorporate into later lunches, or I just tell them I'm not in the mood. Part of my lunch is dinner leftovers (I plan…
  • You say they brought a "large tub" so maybe it was just more then they knew they could eat before it goes bad? My family is real bad about overcooking so we always try to get people to take food home, but we're not forceful. We just want it to be eaten instead of trashed.
  • Amazing! You're gorgeous!
  • I don't mind paying for my student loans but it would be nice if my interest rates where a little lower. Half of my monthly payment goes to interest so that's a big bummer.
  • So going to have to try this sometime!
  • I get the bulk of our food from West Wind Farms where I have a "group csa." Otherwise mostly WalMart because of price and they're open in the middle of the night. Some things I can get at my local food co-op and I go to Earth Fare sometimes for special ingredients and the meat case has an awesome selection. Kroger is…
  • I will definitely keep an eye on this!
  • We grill when we camp of course! I generally have steak one day, chicken breasts one day, and sausages one day, and then repeat and add stuff if necessary. I take a arsenal of vegetables, wrap in the hobo foil wraps, and throw those next to the coals. Sandwich supplies and such for lunch so I can carry in a backpack. I…

  • I add cocoa powder to my yogurt, YUMMY! A coworker asked me why I didn't just buy chocolate yogurt and I told her it tasted better if I just mixed the chocolate in myself. After a long discussion she still thought I was adding ungodly amount of calories to my yogurt. It's not a shaved chocolate bar or something it's cocoa…
  • Oh man! I'd been considering getting one of these myself but never manage to make it before they turn the ice cream machine off for the night. Guess I'll just be having something else instead!
  • Same thing happened to me today. I went to the doctor and the scale said 262 which showed little to no weight loss according to their records and my scale at home is telling me 255 which is a 14 lb weight loss by my records. Not near as a big discrepancy for me but when I got below 260 at home was when I really believed I…
  • You are my hero! I have been looking forward to and dreading the fall.
  • What's the nature of your challenge? I have thought about the possibility of doing one.
  • Want to be sure to check the replies to this later!
  • MMM another good one is Pumpkin Butter! Don't really know about the calories but it tastes great. Haven't had any since I started MFP but hoping to can my own this fall!
  • Wash, Slice, Put in freezer bags and use them this fall in stews!
  • I take water and whatever snack I have handy and usually buy a plain hot dog with mustard at the theater. He gets Soda and Popcorn when we get there. I wish my theater had a healthy snack pack I would buy it!
  • I had this happen to me at a NEUROLOGISTS office! I had went for migraines because the medication my GP prescribed caused an adverse reaction and I have special history that could affect this. She went on to tell me about portion sizes and that I needed to get my eyes checked because I was SO overweight that my…
  • Stride Jumps... I now have shin splints and having to substitute lower impact stuff for my whole workout. Thought I hated mountain climbers but did ok with those today!
  • There's a 16 page pdf linked to the Cargill press release that have all brands and production dates. Here's a link to the press release http://www.cargill.com/turkey-recall/ honeysuckle white, kroger brand, fit&active, and several others are included.
  • Yeah, since I'm not the only one that cooks with the ground turkey in my house and I'll be hosting guests next week I'm returning mine. Would never forgive myself if I did get someone sick, even though I'm careful and I've eaten turkey off the list every week since the first dates on the list. BAH. Maybe I can find some…
  • I kind of do. When I first get up is dinner time and I eat more calories then and less through my night.
  • You look really awesome! How amazing!
  • Sorry I was wrong, it was gardening I was thinking of. You could log it as that maybe.
  • I think there is a yard work option in the cardio logger.
  • I use light because it specifically has my job as an example. On my off days I don't log light activities such as doing things around the house or doing the shopping or whatever, only if I go and specifically do some solid time doing something specifically towards exercise. I guess it's to each what they log or don't but I…
  • So true! This is like the best and easiest thing I have ever done. For me it's controlling those junk binges by actually eating when I start to get hungry! No starvation diet here, lol.
  • That's awesome! I can't wait to join a gym but since working out at home is working for me right now I'm saving the money. I want to start training to do a warriors run in 2012 after I get some of my weight off!
