You tend to nod off when driving!?! I think you should worry less about snacks and more about this!! Get someone to help with the driving before you hurt/kill someone or yourself!

I have been a sleep eater since I was a teenager, and it usually surfaces when I have been seriously cutting calories. Sometimes I remember in the morning, sometimes I just find evidence. Once I woke up to discover I was sitting in my bed eating ice cream out of the carton with a fork. Another time I guess I actually…

Exactly!! Why does it matter what anyone else is eating or what they call it?? Take care of yourself, and let others do the same how they see fit. (Seriously, with all of the problems in the world and this is what some people choose to focus on???)

I just played Fruit Ninja for the first time with my daughter. It was so fun!!! I can totally feel it in my arms after just ten minutes. I really wish it was in the exercise data base...

HOLY S**T!!! Good job dude!

I have wished there was an option for that too!! Pushing a stroller certainly must burn more calories, especially on those hills :P

I have always been able to find workout clothes a Target, even when I was pregnant and weighed over 235...

Hmmm... I get the 6" turkey sub @ Subway without cheese, but with all the veggies and just honey mustard and it clocks in @ 280 calories. Not too shabby IMHO :)

I was taking it until the reports from the FDA started coming in linking it to several cases of liver failure both in the UK and here in the US. Now I think I will pass...

I do when I am working hard and breaking a sweat! It's in the database too :)

La Tortilla makes a 100 calorie tortilla. It's pretty good! Throw in some homemade beans and some low fat cheese, maybe a little salsa... rock-&roll!!

*$@#!!! I just bought a new bottle because I stopped taking it, and then I stopped losing weight, and already I have started dropping weight again, and I have never had ANY side effects, and I know I should be doing this all by myself but it is VERY hard for me to drop weight even with a healthy diet and TONS of exercise,…

I tried Mike's Light Hard Lemonade recently, it was pretty good if you don't mind the "diet" taste from the splenda :)

I tried stevia and soy milk but I don't like the aftertaste from sweeteners like that. I only drink a cup a day (if that) so I splurge a little on Coffee Mate fat free hazelnut creamer. 2 tbs=50 calories and 8g sugar and it's totally worth it!

Thank You! This one is right up my alley, especially right now; I have a cold. I think I will make this tonight!!

I hear ya! I used to have a very high stress job and got in the habit of drinking a bottle of wine every night some time ago... I have switched to light beer now, and I keep track of each one and log it in my food dairy. It helps when you see the total amount of calories at the end of the day and think to yourself "Do I…

Oooo! Thanks for the info!!!

Losing weight in a sauna would be water weight from the sweating, and therefore temporary. You will need to drink more water afterward or you will risk dehydration. However, sweating it out in a sauna is a good way to get your body to expel some toxins, just be sure you do drink PLENTY of water to help flush out your…

If you are using a cast iron dutch oven it will need to be seasoned after you use it, which just means after you wash it you will rub a little vegetable oil on the inside to keep the surface "non-stick" and prevent it from rusting. (On that note, never soak a cast iron pan. If you can't wash it right away just let it sit…

And also it's important to keep your insides as healthy and beautiful as your outsides :) Your heart is one big muscle, and it needs to be kept in shape. Cardio workouts not only burn calories, but they also make your heart stronger. Very important, without it you won't last very long....

I have never tried Old El Paso, but I worked in a Mexican restaurant for years and the main seasonings we used were cumin, chili powder, garlic, and onion. We also used a lot of fresh cilantro. I think the cumin will give you the flavor you are looking for. The first time I smelled it I instantly thought "THAT smells like…

I like the light Hidden Valley Ranch, and I am glad to hear it isn't TOO bad :) I also love Newman's light honey mustard. I usually use that on salads, and the ranch for a dip. Both are delicious! And by the way, I have never cared for Kraft ranch at all, even the regular. It does just taste wrong...

Sometimes I wonder if people don't compliment others for losing weight unless they are actually "thin" again. I have lost 35 lbs this past year (10 since I joined MFP in April) but I still need to lose another 30 or so. I have gotten compliments from some people (like my mom) but nothing from others. Even after mentioning…

Wow. I just said "everyone" a lot! Sorry!!!

You had me at "dark chocolate with sea salt".... That sounds sooooooo good right now!!!

Hormel makes a selection of deli meats that should be widely available at national grocery stores. It's called "Natural Choice", and it is free of nitrates. I wish they made hot dogs because my toddler and husband both love them. (And who am I kidding, so do I... :)

Looks great! I love when folks share good recipes!! :tongue:

Dried beans! I just posted some interesting info about pinto beans under the title "Just a reminder..." You can find good nutritional data on them under "Thae's homemade pinto beans" in the food database. :happy:

I think it really depends on the type of yoga you are doing, and the poses, duration etc.... there are actually quite a few poses that will help build lean muscle and increase body strength when done correctly. Consider a one-on-one class with a yoga instructor to help you focus on those areas if you really like the…

Ha ha! I'll bet your husband was bummed!
