Original Post by rtd13440: Hi, I' fairly new here and was just cerious if I am the only one from Upstate NY? I live near Utica, right off the threw-way between Albany and Syracuse. Anyone even know where that is?? LOL It just seems that I am the only one in NY state that has the internet lol, I can never find anyone on any of the sites I go on that live even in the same state, so I figured I would see if I was alone here too. :) Hi if anyone is from the central NY area check out the central NY group!!!!!

ok I know It has been more than a week sorry guys but with packing and everything by the time I get a free moment I sit down and passout, but I am still doing well with the clean eating, I am keeping track (as best I can) even though I don't log on here every day. I still manage to keep under my cals even though I have been eating out way more than normal. but with as hectic as things are can you please just mark me as away till the begining of October, I will be moved and setteled by then, so I can get back to routiene and check in every week and post more and stuff. but if I get a chance I will drop a post now and then and let everyone know how I am doing if that is ok. Well Best Wishes All and HAGD ~Ronda

Oh there are so many....I lived in a small town so there was nothing better to do than make trouble and for some reason I was part of all of the groups of kids that used to do pranks... but before I get into that the stories about the cars makes me think of the stories my dad used to tell me about working at a plant, his boss drove a vw bug and they used to pick it up and move it to a different place like every night, the last night he worked there they moved it across the street to the bar. no back to my own antics I was not the master mind behind any of them but I was there and helped pull them off, we hung tampons like tons (100 or more) off of the attena, side mirrors, door handels, licence plate ect and also made a "tail" out of them on one of the uptight male teachers cars, we lead a bunch of sheep from a near by farm onto the school lawn and they ate all the grass, we filled the middle drawer on the science teachers desk with baking soda taped a sheet of cling wrap to the inside over the baking soda and then to the inside of the desk filled it with vinegar and when he opened the desk.....(think valcano), the teacher that used to do after school detention always fell asleep while "watching" the students so we super glued his shoes to the floor (that earned 2 more weeks of ASD), we put bubble soultion in the trombones and horns before a christmas concert (that one I just watched), but I think the funniest one of all was when I was older about a year after graduation there was a party and all us trouble makers got together again (mind you we lived in a one light town) we changed the settings in the light control box so that they were all constantly red then we sat in a friends appt that looked out over the intersection watching the ppl set there and try to figure out what to do. Yah we had way to much time on our hands LOL

Hey hope everyone is doing better than me, sorry I missed checking in on monday, I have been pretty out of it for the last 4 or 5 days I hurt my back and the meds I have to take for it put me on a different planet LOL but I'm back on earth now (at least for the most part ;) lol) if I could have a restart I think it is called for cause I honestly don't even remember what I ate, it was what ever my mom brought and alot of stuff that I don't normally eat (micro dinners and such) so anyway hopefully I can get through this move without any more problems. I can't wait till it's over.

Foods	soda, fast food, and white bread	Jul 29 2007 13:24 (UTC)
as far as the soda goes thats my weakness but I don't drink regular soda unless I am awayfrom home and there are no other options, as far as white bread (other than fresh french or italian) I havn't ate any in about 2 years, and for fast food I havne had any of that in almost 4, I was doint the low carb thing for a whil so I couldnt have it and then when I stoped that diet I seen that movie Super Size Me and can't bring myself to eat fast food since. (other than the occasional subway or arbys).
Foods	carb addict soloution?	Jul 29 2007 13:16 (UTC)
how about just cutting out the bread type carbs, you can get plenty of carbs from fruits and veggies, and maybe even potatoes (if they arnt a trigger for you) baked potatoes with ff or light sour cream are good for carbs and they have lots of potassium, but you do need carbs and no matter what you can not cut them totally out of your diet since they are in everything we eat, the thing is to eat the right ones, when you have some extra time go through the lists of fruits and veggies and pick out the ones that are higher in carbs that you can eat without causing problems so you will know what to add to your diet. hope this helps.

I remember those stirrup pants I think I might have owned a pair at one time but was never big on wearing them as I was always running around barefoot LOL but my mom got on board that fashion trend (or should I say nightmare ;p LOL) I sware she had at least one pair in every color you can think of and probably some you can't LOL how about scrunch socks?? with leggins and long t-shirts with a belt or a knot tied in it??? anyone remember that fashion desasiter??
The Lounge	Don't get to close: Study shows Obesity is Contagious	Jul 26 2007 19:33 (UTC)
I don't know if I believe it or not, it might have some marit but I don't think one or 2 studies can prove it, I mean just because you find a bunch of ppl who happen to have one thing in common (fat friends) doesnt mean that they got fat because of their friends. if we can blame our being fat on 1 thing that a bunch of fat ppl have in common than we could blame it on anything how about tyonal? how many of you ever took a tyonal?...see I guess tyonal must make you fat too. (I know that example is a little extream but it proves a point lol). on a second note I never ate more because of my fat friends and my skiny friends never ate more because of me, actually quite oppisite I always ate more when I was around my skinny friends, because they could all eat way more than me :) lol.
Foods	filling & about 100 calories?	Jul 26 2007 17:52 (UTC)	1
this is a variation on my recipie for coleslaw, when I make it I use the light done right dressings because even thought they have a few more cals and fat they have way less carbs (which is what i have to watch more than the cals) but the recipie i did on here uses the fat free. Its a little high in sodium but only 53 cals for a cup, and it takes forever to eat. http://www.calorie-count.com/recipe/52976.htm l
Weight Loss	Strangest binges...	Jul 26 2007 17:12 (UTC)	27
when I was in college in one night I could polish of a whole jar of dill pickles (one of the huge ones u buy from BJ's). a whole tube of toll house cookie dough (not cookies as we never baked it lol). grilled cheese sandwiches OMG those things are pure EVIL !!!! LOL I think the most I ever ate was 6 usually my limit was 4 with tomato soup, just about anything little debbies, the whole box, unless my roommates were around then I never got the whole box/jar/package of anything LOL (hey I guess that is a good diet plan right there get a couple roomates LOL), other things I would binge on CHEESE I could (still can if I let my self) eat cheese by the pound (or 2 lol) doesnt really matter what kind as long as it hasnt got pepers in it but my fave is this extra super sharp (the kind that bites back lol), also peperoni (Ive been known to eat a whole stick in 2 days lol. and the list goes on .... swiss miss hot cocoa packets (not made into a drink just ate the powder) ok ok enough LOL 1 more yougart always strawberry I ate this stuff by the case, litterly, my dad worked at the kraft plant where they made the bryers (sp?) and he used to bring home the "defective" ones, usually they were in the wrong container or the experation date was wrong or missing. but now I try not to binge on anything, if I want it that bad I have a serving or half a serving and freeze the rest or give it away. Everything in moderation!!! the only thing that has come close to a binge for me lately (but didn't ruin my diet) was hot dogs when I was at a cook out on the 4th I ate 4 or 5 of them that day lol.
Weight Loss	I bet you all think I'm stupid buuuttt. Under 500 calorie diet.	Jul 26 2007 15:56 (UTC)
eat more and do exercises to tone your stomach and abs. you should probably even be eating more than 1200 cals a day because of your age, according to this site you should be eating about 1600 cals a day, even looking at the figures on this site, it says you burn 2000 cals a day just living, so you definatly need to eat more, if you do and keep active your belly will probably go away all on its own, just make sure that you are eating good calories and not junk ones. http://www.kidshealth.org/teen/food_fitness/d ieting/diet_plans.html
Foods	Low calorie chocolate fix suggestions?	Jul 26 2007 13:59 (UTC)	6
how about hershey's special dark kisses, they are wraped in purple foil, as there are actually added benifits to eating real chocolate (65% cocoa or higher) (link) I buy them and stick them in the freezer, it takes you longer to eat them that way. there are also other hershey's special dark products: mini bars, nuggets with almonds, nugget truffels, kissables (sort of like a M&M) and then baking products. (see web page here). They also have a line of extra dark products (link) that are even better for you and they come in pouches with each square individually wrapped. hope this helps, (btw they sell these products at walmart for $1.50 - $3.00 or so, I'm in NY so it may be different there)
Health & Support	anyone else out there have PCOS/ insulin resistance?	Jul 25 2007 05:15 (UTC)	13
LOL you know I didn't even realise you spelled it wrong till you corrected your self, can tell I'm real with it today :) yes i think you probably do understand some of what we go through but there are alot more symptoms and side effects to PCOS, and worse yet are the side effects from the meds they put you on to conrol it, I am on meds to help with the IR, meds to make me have my period, and thanks to those meds I am again dealing with migraines, and it hurts like you know what when a cyst bursts (another side effect of the meds), and then there are the symptoms that effect apperance, its not fun, more accuratly it sux, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. But yes the diet concerns for diabeties and PCOS are the same so any insight you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

i havn't had them recently, but I remember getting them when I was in school, those and the sundae crunch bars. I will have to look into the cals/carbs in them though and see, maybe they are somthing I could slip into my diet every now and then.
Foods	All-time favorite food?	Jul 24 2007 11:51 (UTC)	9
well since it is just a wish anyway, I would have a ton of my grammas homemade rools with real butter, a peanut butter and fluff sandwich on wonder wheat bread, a grilled cheese sandwich on white bread made with velveta cheese, and tomato soup made with milk not water, a jmocha shake from Arby's, and for desert my moms chocolate cake with chocolate chips and chocolate frosting, and some chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, and for a snack peperoni and sharp cheese (the real stuff the kind you buy from markets fresh cut off the big wheel) and club crackers. (the sad thing is I think I have eaten all of that except my grammas rools in one "day" lol ....college)
Foods	I'm Addicted to Starbursts and other candies.	Jul 24 2007 11:37 (UTC)	7
Maybe try subing something else for the starburst, how about that vitiman water, its sweet and fruity, and an 8 oz serving has 50 cals ans 13g of sugar but it also has a bunch of vitimins and minerals and stuff, and they have some that taste just like starbursts, the dragonfruit one and the lemmon one. as far as the chocolate goes how about allowing yourself some real chocolate 65% or more cocoa it actually has some health benifits, hersheys sells it now under the hersheys reserve brand, check out their website for nutrition info and the health benifits, or google it. http://www.hersheys.com/nutrition/antioxidant s.asp http://longevity.about.com/od/lifelongnutriti on/p/chocolate.htm
Foods	Fasting	Jul 24 2007 10:56 (UTC)	6
dont try and eat to many calories all at once, when you can eat again drink some water, eat an orange, while you are making somthing a little more substantial, how about 1/2 regular pasta and 1/2 whole wheat pasta with a little olive oil, garlic, and mixed veggies (i do broccli, caloflower, summer squash, pea pods and peppers) and maybe some protein of some sort, with some whole grain bread and then some more fruit or yougart for desert. good luck.

I'm still going, even despite the picnic I got draged to where the closest thing to a veggie was the potato chips lol that wasnt my best day by far but I didnt blow it either, I had to eat since we were there all day so I for the whole day I had a hamburger (no bun) and 2 hot dogs (no buns), but it wasn't to bad I just ate a big salad and an orange when I got home. I didn't even touch the smores or marshmallows or the cakes or cupcakes or any of the other loads of junk they had, I even passed on the chicken marinated in beer and bbq sauce and then drenched in more homemade BBQ. hope everyone else is doing good as well.

I wont share the numbers but lets just say I was talking in sentences b4 I could walk, and I could read b4 I went to nursery school, (still cant spell to save my life LOL we cant all be perfect) they if it wasnt for my age I would have been in kindergarten when I was 4, they tested me in first grade and I should have skiped 2 grades but the school wouldn't let me b/c I didn't socialize well with others LOL, I had nothing in common with them I thought they were kinda dumb. But that was then this is now I still have a high IQ but it doesnt do you much good when you cant use it for anything other than posting on message boards LOL.
