kale chips
I really love kale chips, so do my kids and husband - but I'd really like more control over the salt/sodium content so I want to make them. I've seen lots of recipes and they're all over the place in regards to oven temp and cooking time and oil amount. Anyone successfully make them at home? crispy not burnt, not soggy?…

new olympic bar and plates
I'm wanting to upgrade my bar and plates, I need more weight, plus mine are just old and came as a set. I have a squat rack, and work out at home mainly focusing on the 5x5 lifts.

anyone use a knee brace?
I've begun to get some pain during squats, not enough to make me stop or lighten the load, but wonder if some support would help? Thoughts? It's a dull, almost stretching feeling when I get parallel. I just don't want to wait until it is really painful and have to completely stop.

anyone from Northern Oregon?
I'm wondering if anyone is from my area that would like to team up to lose weight? All my friends are either too busy or too lazy, my husband works long hours, and my children are too young to really work out with me. I feel like I would do better with someone to be accountable to (for instance, someone waiting at the park…

whte wine vinegar?
looking over a WebMD article on diet tips to lower cholesterol, I read this : "Instead of using butter to keep your pan moist while cooking, use white wine vinegar. It doesn't change the flavor of foods and doesn't add fat" I have white wine vinegar, I use it to saute pasta and in stir fry, but given the smell of it, can…

the best single piece of fitness advice you ever got?
what was one thing you read, heard, learned, that really stuck and helped you make changes? For me it was realizing that I needed to not go to the grocery store while hungry, if I could have will power at the store then the bad items would not be in my kitchen available to me when i was weak!!
