lol....that's what I was hoping to hear.:happy: Thanks! That's why I love this site...and I can't wait to start my nutrition class next semester!!!

I'll put a pic up soon. I'm at work and just took down the pics I had on myspace lol. It's not finished yet, I've only had the outline done. It is a custom piece that my artist did for me. He basically just sketched it onto my arm then added the ink. It's diving down around one of my other tats. I love it and can't wait to…

I know most people don't count the the natural sugars in fresh fruit, but I was wondering how everyone felt about the sugar in milk. Do you count or ignore it? Just curious! :wink: :smile: That's what always seems to put me over my daily sugar intake.:grumble:

ooooo this sounds fun!:love: Piercings I have a vertical labret and a stud on the right side of my nose. Tattoos Right arm: a moon bracelet, water fairy on the inside of my forearm; a flower fairy, griffin, and custom design on my upper arm. Left arm: an "OM" symbol on upper arm, kanji symbol for love on inside forearm,…

I have to say it's the owner in most cases. The way I look at it is by comparing them to people. Generally speaking kids that grow up well had good parents and those that grew up to be aggressive, angry, racist, etc had parents that abused or neglected them in some way. Now it is true that some children grow up to kill or…

So I just realised I'm halfway to my goal of losing 15 pounds by Christmas. Even though it doesn't seem like much, getting halfway in a month is awesome for me. Maaaybee I'll just re-evaluate my goal when I get closer to reaching it. :happy: That's all, just had to share!:bigsmile: :drinker: (and my ticker is off by a…

I'm not sure I feel like that, but on the days that I exercise I feel like I'm eating way too much. I earned an extra 400-something calories today, but I can't finish them off. :ohwell: I'm soooo full!!! lol I still have over :noway: 200 left to eat. :noway:

thanks everyone for the suggestions!!! I went with eggs...and yea, the pizza sounded sooooo good! It's important to eat the calories. If you don't your body can go into starvation mode and halt your weight loss.

okay, so I've had breakfast, lunch and dinner plus a 100 cal. curves bar and I still have another 599 calories to eat today, but I'm over my sugar by 11g (most of which is from fruit so it's cool). Any ideas of where I can get those calories with out consuming much sugar?

i'll be getting mine with my tax refund!!!! I can' t wait!!!:bigsmile: :bigsmile:

I worked for Panera a few years ago. I believe the Fontega is made on rosemary onion Foccacia, which is not the healthiest of breads. They do not put butter on them, but I agree with NicoleF that without the mayo you only had about 500 cals. The mayo used at Panera is some of the worst you can get. Now, as for my favorite…

I watch my sugars also and was having that same problems. Through several different sources I've been told not to worry if they are natural sugar, like in fruit. I still keep note of them, but I generally just ignore the nat. sugar on here.

The tea works best in long-term continuous use. All it really does though is up you metabolism a bit. It's by no means a miracle worker and I wouldn't rely on. It's strange that it would have you feeling nauseous.... where did you order it from?

that's awesome!!! Congrats!!!:drinker:

I'm not sure about the cravings adapting or not but it's always a good idea to only weigh yourself once a week. That's what I do. I find that when I weight myself every other day or so I get discouraged.

What types of food are you eating? It's important to eat the right kind of calories, think protein. The empty ones won't fuel you for long and your hunger will come back sooner. Are you drinking enough water? Thirst and hunger pains are very similar.

most tea except for black tea are either very low in caffeine or don't have any at all.

:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: I love oolong tea...just about any tea really. Ever since I started drinking it (about 6 years ago) I haven't touched a cup of coffee. I've been drinking a lot of Wu Long tea lately and it's the same "miracle weight loss" buzz you hear about Oolong.…

I agree with everyone that it's best to plan ahead, however if you do find yourself hungry at the gas station beef jerky is usually pretty good. You've just got to watch what kind you buy and always check the nutrition facts. Jerky is high in protein and will keep you full with less, longer.

I had the same problem last week. I ate very healthy for breakfast and lunch without starving myself (I had to do some research) and kept my calories down enough to allow myself 2 slices of pizza. It also helps to decide ahead of time what kind of pizza you want and then get the nutrition facts on it. Then when it comes…

I had to be to work and hour early this morning for our annual United Way Rally and our so-called "breakfast" that they supplied us was coffee and Krispy Kreme doughnuts:sad: . Having to get up earlier than usual I was unable to eat breakfast before going in. Because of limited staffing I have to work from 7am to 2 pm…

About 2 years ago I somehow lost 30 pounds without doing much of anything. I stopped losing wieght but wasn't gaining any either. Then this summer I gained 10 pounds. Now I want to lose that and keep going until I reach my target. I found this site today as I was surfing for "Diet" tips. ("diet" is in quotations because if…
