was given a bag of dry roasted soy seeds ( edamame) was told they were yummy and good for me... if I was to compare it to something..... used cat litter

Never had used cat litter.

Quinoa is fantastic! It does take some practice to get the flavors you want with it. It's a food that leaves you feeling energized rather than weighed down after eating. Yum.

Yes. That's it, precisely. The seasoning IS tricky....but worth the effort, IMHO.

Love quinoa but you have to try Freekah. With some olive oil and cumin....great replacement for brown rice. Good for you!

I will try anything once.

Well, almost anything...

I weigh daily guiltypleasures. Because things can quickly get out of hand with me. I like to monitor it daily to make sure I'm not gaining.

I'd like to be behind you when you weigh..put a foot on the scale and watch you panic..hehe

I thought you stopped eating candy bars?!?.

Going on a self imposed strict diet just after the Super Bowl friends..OMG I really hate doing it. Got the whole house to agree to a bet on loosing weight. Everyone here could stand to drop a few pounds.

well, dieting got the first 12 pounds easy. But since I'm just hovering around 189 or so, I decided I seriously need to exercise. 30 minutes light stretching and then walked the Subdivision (about a mile and a half). Then treated myself to six wheat crackers w/ peanut butter, a banana and four Ibuprofen.



getting old sux.

Love this line from a movie: Tell me about it....stud.


Anyway, 3 miles on the elliptical. Working up a sweat really does work
Did a modified plank and tried to hold it for a whole commercial break. Arms were justaburnin' and had to quit...of course the next commercial was the last one before the show came back on
Weight work on the arms.

Yeah baby! I feel the burn!

My fat ayuss needs to loose 100 pounds easy..Not impossible but will be a real pain to try to keep off once lost.

I hear ya Sirius. Losing it is hard enough, then keeping it off... Pffft.

I've gone from 186 to 240 then down to 190 then back up to 250 and it really just gets worse every time I loose a lot..Beginning to think I have a wonky thyroid.

Getting old is not for sissies.

Yep I fit every symptom in the book. The problem is after paying for insurance I don't have enough money for the doctor visit and prescription

Quinoa and Freekah...I'm just glad y'all didn't say Ben Wa. Although that may have piqued my interest...
