The joy of jello!
I am always looking for a new snack and this is an old one but I love sugar-free jello. That and a couple of tblps of fat free cool whip and I don't feel like it's a diet dessert and even tho it don't fill me up it takes care of a sweet craving once in a while. : )

My friend wants to bake Christmas cookies...
and I would love to do it but I just know I will want to eat them. I've had enough of a gain as it is so what can I do to make cookies with her and not hurt her feelings but not eat the cookies? Any suggestions? Any light cookie recipes hiding out anywhere that anyone would like to share? Thanks:flowerforyou:

Need Opinions
I'm trying Herbalife supplements and wondered if anyone out there has used them and whether they worked for you or not. If they don't work I'd much rather spend the money on fresh veggies.

The price of Complacency!
If you are doing well and think well maybe a day won't matter. Think again! One day led to another, I stopped walking, stopped logging and the price of complacency is high. I went from 160 to 178 over a 3 month period. Don't let this happen to you! I will fight back to where I was but I know it will take time and it just…

Herbal tea= 1 glass of water?
Hi I switched from caffinated products to herbal teas awhile ago and wanted to know if anyone counted them as part of their water intake or not. I drink about 3-4 a day and my water is on top of that and I feel like I'm going to float away soon. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Sometimes if I am hungry I make an herbal tea to fill…

Stronger, Better, Faster, Nov 1
Well this is a first, I never start the post. So today I have to drive the girls soccer team to the semifinals so I don't know if I will get to any exercise today. Does 4 hours of driving 1 hour of screaming at the top of your lungs out to encourage them count? Otherwise my goals for the day are my vitamins waters and to…

Kids home= weight gain
I love my kids but when they come home I tend to eat way more than I should so now my scale is going the wrong way! Well I also slacked on the exercise. But I keep trying. I keep telling myself that nothing tastes as good as being skinny feels but I'm truly have motivation trouble and I just don't know why it seemed easier…

Does anyone know? Just want info
Why does the box of pasta give a dry ingredient amout? Why can't it just say 1 cup is so many calories? So my question is (and I feel stupid because I could just go boil 2 oz of it but I'm being lazy) how much is 2 oz of spaghetti when it is cooked. I always use it as a meal where a lot of people are at so I don't know…

And you were worried the scales were addicting, Banks...
Try going without your computer. For the last two weeks my computer/dish hookup has been messing up and I have been freaking out. WHY? Because this site is addicting !!

I'm so glad I am back
Well I am finally back, it took awhile but I'm here. I really really really missed this place while I was gone. Thanks to all who were saying prayers for us. My mom received a clean bill of health and I could come home much earlier. She won't even need chemo, I'm so relieved about that. I thought for sure I was going to…

What does everyone plan on doing this summer for fun?
I am (back permitting) getting back on a bicycle. I haven't been on one in years and I want to get one with the knobby tires for hills. Other than that I always have my garden and I think I would like to get some binoculars and check out birds. I would love to be able to draw them. So what is everyone else planning on…

I finally kicked my...
last bad habit! YEA! I have been caffeine free for a week and going strong! I didn't think I would ever kick the coffee habit. I went from a pot a day to nada in four weeks. I thought for sure I would end up with major headaches but I was wrong. So I guess getting off it the slow way worked out well. I've been drinking…
