Please add me as well!

Cuban black bean stew with avocado salsa

Fantastic! Great job!

Congratulations! Great job!

If I don't, the next day I tend to want to eat everything in sight, so I eat most of my exercise calories back.

Bump and thanks!

Thanks for this - I copied it so I can give myself reality checks with it.

To me a turnip is rather like a radish. They're pretty good for you, so I manage to eat them by throwing them in soup. Love other roasted root vegetables, so maybe the fries could work. Good luck.

Rice pudding. Milk and sugar and rice = yakville.

Is anyone else reminded of Vizzini in "Princess Bride"?

Fantastic!

I also love a bucket of black pepper on my cottage cheese.

I'm always a little self conscious about my "joined" date, since it seems that I haven't made huge progress, but I've found that this site is incredibly helpful when I choose to use it. There's a poem called, "There's a Hole in My Sidewalk" by Portia Nelson that you might find interesting.…

Fantastic work! You look great!

Good to see you Phil! I'm trying to get it started as well. Best of luck to you on your continued journey.

I had my blood work done a year ago, and found I was totally Vitamin D deficient. I took the daily dose, had it checked six months later, and found I was only getting 25% of what I needed. I now take quite a bit under a doctor's supervision, and it's amazing how much better I feel. I didn't feel emotionally "depressed",…

My profile pic is my dog Ginger - German Shepherd/Collie/Husky mix. Very smart, fun loving, great sense of humor, and mischievous. Is 13 1/2. The picture is her telling me she would like some of my dinner, please.

I have in the past made gobs of spaghetti sauce and frozen it when the tomatoes go crazy, a sometimes rare occurance in Western WA. I…

I think the site says a tablespoon has about 15 calories, so I would imagine you could go for it. Almost like low cal salad dressing for meat.

You can add me too!

Were these 8 oz glasses? I do need to go regularly, but more like every 2-3 hours. My standard glasses hold 2 cups of water, which is 16 oz. Maybe you're doubling your water intake?

Happens to me all the time, and I've lost 22 pounds since January, so I think it's totally normal. I only "officially" weigh in once a week or I'd worry too much.

Great job!!!

I've gotten better at budgeting $, I pack my lunch almost every day, the kitchen is cleaner as a general rule, and I tend not to run late, all exciting developments!
