I'm having broccoli for breakfast
because if the weather holds out, I'm taking my son to the fair and we are for sure getting a funnel cake! Yummy! And I can probably stay w/in calories for the day pretty easily - especially if I wear my HRM, which I think I will cuz who knows how much we will walk!

Random egg question
how long do you think a tuperware of uncooked eggs lasts in the fridge? As long as their shelled counterparts? My son broke a full 18 count so i saved the innards in a tupperware, and for some reason it is a lot easier for me to grab eggs from there when cooking than to actually crack the shell (probably because we compost…

anyone have a low(er) cal zucchini bread recipe?
My garden has started churning out zukes and i LOVE LOVE LOVE zucchini bread - unfortunately, it falls more under the category of junk food than of vegetables... I was hoping this year to find a recipe that still tastes good but that has fewer calories than the full on regular zucchini bread. I imagine that alternatives…

Px90 diet
Did you do the chart to figure out your cals or did/do you do your base/activities + your HRM cals? Also, do you do any deficit at all?

burn 600 cals in 1/2 hour!
Give blood! Ok, so you don't actually burn the cals in the 1/2 hour, but over the course of the day and the next replenishing your blood supply you will burn about 600 calories! Plus you save lives.

Mini Blizzard!
I haven't tried them yet, but apparently DQ just came out with a mini blizzard. They're 7oz compared to a 12 oz small. I for one even with a small blizzard end and think - why did I eat all that? It was way too much. Maybe these will be the perfect size? Looks like about 300 cals depending on the mix in - still quite a…

need grape tom recipes
I have about a million grape tomatoes ripe and I can only eat so many salads :) Anyone know of any good recipes that you can use them in? Of course somewhat healthy is better, but don't limit yourself only to low cal. I can spare a good high cal meal now and then in moderation if it's going to be super tasty :)

You didn't gain it overnight....
you won't lose it overnight... OK, but then why does it take over a month to lose 5 lbs but I can put on 2-3 in a week? (w/out any major pigging out.) (And I weight myself on the same day at the same time on the same stomach.) So frustrating!

over on cals yesterday
This isn't a "what should I do!" post, because I don't really care that I went over probably once in the last ... what? month... But, my point is.... I didn't really eat that much ... and was over by 800+ calories (or about 400+ over my maintenance limit). I had Brunch - homemade biscuits and gravy with sausage Dinner…

Weekend discovery
So, since my 3 yr old is in AZ for 6 weeks. I had some time to walk the dogs this weekend and I found miles of 4-wheeler (AKA easy to walk) trails in the woods behind my house! I have been here 2 years and never knew they were there! I burned about 600 cals both Sun and Mon walking the dogs for an hour. Walking outdoors in…

Almost a month away from the gym
and really feeling it after going back this morn! And all I did was the elliptical. Since our Y flooded in the TN storms they're back open but no group fitness classes yet. Hope I can stay motivated to get up early and go do the elliptical. Yuck.

gym closed :(
Just expressing frustration that my Y is closed from the flooding and I don't know when it will reopen. I'm not one to go out and do videos or exercise w/out the class pressure to keep up or the deadline of having to be there at a certain time. I'm going to have to make myself go run with the dogs in the morning instead,…

Calorie Calculator
I am sure this is a duplicate, but... Anyone know a good recipe calculator site? I really like http://caloriecount.about.com/cc/recipe_analysis.php because you can cut and past a whole recipe not do 1 ingredient at a time, but I have found it to be very inaccurate.

I burned 800 cals
playing in the snow w my son today! (1.5 hrs) Just a reminder of exercise not having to be exercise!

Alternative use for Hush Puppy Mix?
I have two packages of Martha White Onion Flavor Hush Puppy Just Add Milk mix that is set to expire. I want to use it, but don't necessarily want to fry it up. Does anyone know any recipes that I could use this in? Maybe some sort of chicken shake and bake? I saw this recipe for oven baked hush puppies, but I am not sure…

buttermilk biscuits
I ended up with some buttermilk so I made biscuits - last time I made them they used like 1/2 cup crisco. Yuck (but they tasted good!) and had like 200 - 300 calories each (especially if you brush them with butter when you bake them) But this time I made these and they were about 65 cals each for 9 biscuits from the recipe…

german pancakes
Anyone know how to make lower fat / cal german pancakes? They are super simple 1/2 c milk, 3 eggs, 1/2 c flour, 1/4 c butter. I have FF milk and figure I can spray down the pan with Pam and use only 1-2 t of "butter" instead but not sure how they will taste? I don't want to use egg substitute or egg whites. I guess I just…

Exercise Calories
Ah, the infamous exercise calories!! I wanted to know if or how any of you compensate for the calories you would have burned anyway, during the time you exercise. IE - If I just worked and took care of my 2 yr old, I would burn roughly 75-100 calories. But, instead I worked out and burned 400. So TECHNICALLY I only burned…

I dreamed I ate a cookies and cream milkshake
So I had this dream last night that I ate a cookies and cream milkshake and it was SOOO good and so realistic that today I feel like I did eat it and that I had my sugar splurge for the day! And all at zero calories! Now if only there was some way to recreate this...
