Weight Loss Your Breakfast? Oct 20 2009
16:45 (UTC)

1/2 cup of egg beaters (60 cals), lots of broccoli, on a flat out wrap (100 cal) with some mustard.

Might not be tasty for everyone but I have been eating this breakfast M-F for over a year and I still am in love with it.

The Lounge Have you ever been to a lock and key party? Oct 16 2009

I goggled it, this is what I found...

HOW IT WORKS:Every female gets a lock and every male gets a key. You then have to find a lock that matches your key or vice versa. As you work around the lock and key party, you will meet many different people and trying one another's locks serves as a great ice breaker giving you the chance to meet a huge number of people. You never know, you may find the key to your heart(hahahahahaaa)

Sorry, no advice because I've never done this but it is a neat idea. Love the sexual innuendo of lock and key, hahaaa.

I will agree with Indeed.com - "your one stop shop for jobs" CORNY, but true. Don't underestimate the power of craigslist for jobs too. It costs $25 to list a job on craigslist while it costs hundreds of dollars to post on cb and monster.

I put tons of broccoli in with the egg whites, the texture isn't so noticable with the broc. I put the broc/eggs in a light wrap and it's really good.

BE HONEST! Don't lie. Just say that you made a mistake quitting your first job for the one "that wasn't a good fit" and explain what you learned about the situation. Be positive. It's a good sign that you have been with your most recent place of employment for 3 years. Focus on the good, not the bad and be honest. (I'm a recruiter)

Interesting you ask this...over the weekend I stopped at McDonalds hoping to get a coffee with skim milk...they don't do that. The only offer the skim milk option if you are getting one of their lattes. In their iced or hot coffee they only offer cream. It pissed me off.

It is a privilege to play in the NFL and I absolutely think he should have lost that privilege. The NFL allows lots of criminals to play in their league (Stallworth should be out too).  What Vick did is disgusting and I think he should be banned from the NFL and have to go work as a garbage man. That's the 2nd chance he deserves. I hope Eagles fans tear him up.

Question about the amusement park day: Did your ex organize the outing? If she did, I get it - it's malicious and nasty and was probably supposed to leave you out. If someone in your family organized the outing, wtf? The sister in law seems like a very shady character. Your original post turned my stomach. I'm impressed with you keeping your head straight - I'd be seeing red.

Oh, I'm addicted. I know most people (as this clearly shows) loathe this kind of stuff but it's like candy to me, I don't know why. Anyone see the Real Housewives last night? HA I think, at least for me, it's entertaining to even imagine that there are "real" people who are so....out there.

BUFFALO, NY!!! I live in Dallas for now but I'll be back home in a few years - I miss it so much (never would have guessed that when I was there). I miss the pizza and Thursday in the Square.

I keep oatmeal packets in my desk drawer for my 3pm-ish snack. Definitely filling (mine are 160cals) and tide me over until dinner time.

Wow, that is SO incredibly annoying. That puts you in such an awkward position and there is no "good" or "right" way to get rid of the pest....and seeing him at the gym after a confrontation...ugh! Anyway, you have to be stern. Tell him that you're pressed for time and need to get through x, y, z quickley. Then no more eye contact, do not smile and go back to headphones immidiately. If you're on a cardio machine you could bring a book or mag to have on the machine just to turn your attention towards and pretend to read. When on the mat or machines, just focus your eyes on the ceiling or clock or somewhere and make sure not to make eye contact with your socially awkward and annoying suitor. GOOD LUCK.

I love this pill -

Skin has stayed about the same (not bad, not perfect)

SUPER regular and cramps are very manageable if they come at all (used to have debilitating cramps)

Didn't gain any weight (and was able to lose some)

My breasts are bigger - bras that were loose fitting are now filled up. Love it

Ugh that's the worst. You eat because you feel bad and gained weight, and you feel bad and gain weight because you eat! Is it the chicken or the egg? I never know. It is seriously hard to turn it around. But once you turn that corner, it's much easier. I can totally relate. I usually need to clean my apartment, go grocery shopping and that gives me peace of mind that I have the tools to eat right. Just focus on that, focus on eating right. Drink lots of water and stay busy so your mind is on something else. I used to just go to Target or the mall and wander around and try on clothes and look at things to occupy myself. Good luck and you are seriously not alone.

I cannot believe you have made it this far without some sort of mp3!!! Welcome!! Your workouts will sooooo improve. There are still places to download music, I think they really screw with your computer though - I have limewire on my computer but I know that it's bad for the mp3 player and computer. This is kind of a ghetto move, but I get cds from the library and put them on my computer. Good luck!
