Substitues for cream?
I'm making pumpkin pie from scratch this year and I found a wonderful recipe with few ingredients... But It calls for 12oz of cream. All the other pumpkin pie recipes I've been looking at call for evaporated milk. Can I sub evaporated milk for the cream or will it totally wreck the pie? I've never done this before...

Liquid Diet, Curiousity
I've been thinking of a liquid diet... not all alcohol and not all juice either, just all liquid. Like milk can have 100 calories a cup... soup can have 200 calories a cup... Consuming 1200-1400 calories in all liquid... I wonder what the pros and cons would be...

Halloweenie Candie!
How expensive is Halloween candy in your neighborhood? I just got 2 bags of "Monster Mix" (Whoppers, Milk Duds, Jolly Ranchers, and Twizzlers) at $2.99 a bag. I hope to get rid of at least a bag and a half, if not just one whole bag. The rest will go to my hubby mostly and just a lil towards my diary! :-)

Quick question about cals and pounds...

Ever feel off balance?
I'm talking like "falling over balance" not "nutrient balanced" Some times I'll just be sitting here and feel as though I'm about to fall backwards. Also sometimes when I'm sleeping I will see myself falling and "catch myself" shaking the whole bed and waking up myself and my husband! :-P Anyone else have balance issues?…

Question about weighing in
I've been weighing myself every day to see when I hit 250 (it happened on Friday!!). This morning I weighed in for the heck of it and the scale reads 248.6... Do I log this? Fridays are my official weigh in days but anytime the scale reads lower than my current weight, I seem to log it. Is this fair? Should I wait and see?…

I need ideas for goal rewards!
I know some of you might go "Isn't loosing the weight reward enough in and of itself?" Well yeah but having mini goal rewards make it all the more fun! :-D So after hitting 10lbs lost this morning I'd like to pick some rewards for myself that are nonfood related. Today I think I might reward myself by taking it easy today…

How did you determine your Target Weight?!
How did you come up with what your target weight should be? Did you use the BMI chart? Did your doctor tell you? I used both. According to the BMI chart a woman of my height should be 177lbs. My doctor said if I could get under 190lbs he'd be happy. So I combined the two and I am working to loose 100lbs and be 170lbs by…
