Number of calories mysteriously changing on nutrition facts
The other day I was looking at nutrition facts on pre-made hummus at a grocery store. One of the kinds had two different figures for the calories (some of the tubs had 50, some had 60), and nothing else made the tubs dissimilar. No "new look", no change of ingredients or their order... I noticed something similar with Caio…

"What Would you taste like to a cannibal?" funny, silly quiz
http://www.recipestar.com/quizzes/view/cannibal-taste I would most likely taste like broiled fish. (I think the other time I took it, I got spicy fish - not sure what changed).

Has anyone else broken a femur?
Hi. I broke my femur in a car accident six weeks ago and I am just seeing if anyone else here has that I can talk to. I've gained a lot of weight and I can't move much and it's really getting to me. Thanks!

"Eat What You Love, Love What You Eat" by Michelle May - has
http://www.eatwhatyoulovelovewhatyoueat.com/ Has anyone read this? My nutritionist offered it to me months ago to read, and I never did. I have an appointment with her this month and am considering reading it before then. I remember attempting to reading it, and reading something about the author that really turned me off…

Sleeping way too long - connection to diet?
Hello! I have an incredible alarm clock that is as loud as a jackhammer and vibrates my bed. I used to constantly sleep through other alarms, so my alarm clock is certainly not the problem. I do wake up from it and turn it off, and reset the time on it. The following situation (today), is not unusual: I went to bed at 2 am…

Frozen Okra?
Who eats this?! And in what way? I understand it is a southern staple, but I think that's when it's fresh... I'm not a texture person (as in they don't bother me), but this is by far the grossest texture I've ever encountered with a food! It's like snot! I wish I had taken pictures. I bought pictsweet brand and boiled as…

Making a whole chicken in crock pot tomorrow
That is as far as I have gotten for planning... And I am planning on storing a lot of it in some way, as I live alone. Any input greatly appreciated! Oh, I have never used a crockpot before, and I'm not very familiar with cooking in general (only started about a year ago).

Take out your recycling! (And share what you took out...)
I like making lists of things, so I may be alone on this topic, but at least it will be here for my records! I'm recycling my cardboard today because my pile is huge. The last time I took it out was some time in late August, so everything on this list is from then on. Keep in mind that of course I have eaten other things…

Putting your scale on your kitchen floor?
Recently I was in a home where a family did this as motivation to make better food choices. I think that I'm going to try it. Has anyone here tried it? Thoughts?

Shopping at Target later - Target brand foods?
I know most of these things will be processed (which I am trying to avoid), but I wanted to see if anyone had any healthy, low-cal Target brand favorites. Or non-target brand foods that are sold at Target. I figure most other things are sold elsewhere, too, though.

Foods that are always better organic:
Significantly better/worth the higher price. I'll start. KETCHUP.

Crock Pot Recipes that Make Good Leftovers?
Please only low-cal suggestions. I live alone and this is why I want recipes that will taste good after being refrigerated (or frozen)! Thank you so much! I have not used my Crock Pot yet, I got it for 2 dollars at a garage sale this summer, it's in perfect condition.

For those of you who have suffered from eating disorders
Something I heard, just want to bring it up and hear people's thoughts on it... A couple years ago, in class, we had a speaker who said that, on average, it takes twice as long as one suffered from an eating disorder to get over the "eating disorder mindset". And that doesn't stop until someone is better, obviously. I was…
