Hi there. I was checking out the recent post from Heidicu on night time
snacking, and it made me want to ask my own question. Basically, I work six
nights a week at a convenience store. My wife prefers that we keep a similar
sleeping schedule on my day off, or we never seem to get ...

Lately I've come to like oil and vinegar dressings on my salads.  Actually I
even just prefer plain oil and vinegar.  Less oil, more vinegar.  The thing
is, I find vinegar to be a dehydrating thing, or at least it feels that way
if I have too much.  Is it like salt and makes you ...

After the suggestions here I took a side view and front view picture of myself
in a bathing suit.  I'm worse than I already thought.
I was going to go swimming w/ my DD after her class today .. but forget that.
I really shouldn't even be allowed to be seen in public.

Hello All,
Sounds like people are using all kinds of ways to lose weight.  I too make sure
to exercize and drink lots of water.  My problem is still late night snacking
but I've found a diet lollipop that actually curbs my appetite.  I've been able

Hi.  I have a terrible time with night-time and Evening snacking/eating.
I can eat sensible meals all day -- eat a filling and satisfying supper. and
yet I can turn right around after supper and even though I'm full I can [and
do] sometimes snack till bedtime.

First, I am certainly not anti-aspartame because I believe that even
if there is a slight risk from it, the risk from sugar, or more
accurately excess/empty calories is much greater, but I'm wondering
whether the study commonly cited by the anti-aspartame crowd about

For years I have been trying to lose inches off of my waist! BUT IT
JUST IS NOT HAPPENNING!!  I am so disgusted and frustrated!!!
I also want to stop smoking! How the heck am I supposed to get all
this done!

I picked up some lite silken tofu to make some smoothies for breakfast this
week.  I saw that Mary's version didn't mention using milk - just tofu and
berries, but Beverly's does.  It is necessary to use milk?  Just curious.

Looking for some advice concerning free weights and strengthening my
shoulders and arms.  I just began walking again after a very long time, and
it is great for my legs, but I need to work on the rest of me.  My arms have
always been scrawny, no muscle, and I can't afford a gym so I ...

I went on a hike with my family this evening.  It took about an hour and
a half and was fairly rigorous - it went up a ridge and then back down
again - too difficult for the mountainbikes so we hiked on foot.
Anyway, I wore my McDonald's pedometer just for grins and chuckles.

This is my first post here ..

25 kg in 3 months.

I'm having problems finding workout shorts that are long enough or don't give
the Fat Chick Ride.  (FCR is the way some fat women wear shorts that ride up
the middle, I'm sure we all have seen it.)  I'm a fat woman (however I'm
currently in shrink mode) and hate that particular ...

I've been adjusting to my new WOE for several months now. There are alot of
things I'm still learning, and for me, it has been a slow progress. I'm sure
alot of you have gone through this already, so maybe you can enjoy my
musings. ;) (however long lol)

We have Dollar Tree stores in this area (SF Bay) that sell some interesting
food items.  In the ethnic area I've found things like chili dried pineapple
chunks, chili and lime dry roasted lima beans and garbanzo beans, chili
flavor Japanese peanuts, and honey roasted soy nuts.  All ...

Hi gang,
Just wanted to post (it keeps me accountable lol) and give a slight
update on me.
I'm fighting with 190 *hard*, I don't know why this number is such a
