Hmm..

From a basic-highschool-biology point of view let's think,

Lunch meat is made of animals, which have fat in their bodies.

Fat molecules contain concentrated amount of the pesticides, chemicals, PCBs, heavy metals (mercury, etc.) the animals eat in their food.

Quite frankly, I believe hands-down, even with no evidence, that chemicals, metals, PCBs, etc. cause major bodily harm.  I know human bodies aren't supposed to withstand alien substances. 

Everyone thinks of the Parent Trap when I say I fence! haha. Yeah, I wear the ridiculous white costume + mask, but it's without jumping over fences and falling in water troughs. I practice 4 times a week, but it's more skill than cardio.

So, I tried crunches today, and I can do about 30 comfortably. Where are you guys at?

Breakfast: tangerine + 2 oatmeal-raisin-health cookies (40cal each)

Snack: Banana

Lunch: 1 cup brown rice + 1 cup chicken stirfry

Mega-snack (mom's contribution): a bunch of baby carrots + bell pepper + lots of guacamole + crackers+ lots of salsa + lots of mixed nuts (like 1/2 cup)

Dinner: TBA (probably steak, salad, fat-free milk + rice)

Dessert: TBA (prob Ice cream bar)

I realize the skinny bottom one most likely doesn't eat enough and is unhealthy to look like that... but don't insult the uncurvy, skinny, straight women! We can be beautiful too!

It isn't all fun in the park being short and petite either! I'm both... without the hourglass figure. Just straight up and down, no boobs, no butt, no hips, no nothing! Talk about feeling unfeminine!

We've just got to learn to deal! (and no one is ever happy with what they have!)

exactly! Thanks so much!

I've been told I have a minor case of Reynauld's Syndrome. 

In any temperatue weather (even 80+), my hands and feet remain ice cold.  When it gets below 60 outside, my hands start turning purple/grey.  It's pretty unattractive :).  They've never become white though, so I count myself lucky.  I usually try to massage them and heat them up with my body.

I thought I would make pecan pie this holiday season--- until I realized the recipe is loaddddded with high fructose corn syrup! Have you ever seen the stuff in the bottle?.... nasty!

Honestly, when I make salad for myself I use just plain and simple balsamic vinegar... less messing around with fat and calories.  Newman's Own makes nice 'Light' ones though.

Oh this is such a good post! Way to get us thinking healthy and yummy.  I have so many here's my list

• Avocados (spooned right out of the skin with a little pepper)
• Carrots
• SWEET BELL PEPPERS
• Raw broccoli
• APPLES
• Raspberries
• Raisins
• Craisins
• Fiber One!
• Fat-free milk
• Vanilla non-fat yogurt
• Sorbet
• Bananas! (+ peanut butter, it's healthy enough)
• 7 grain raisin bread
• String cheese
• ASPARAGUS
• Prunes
• Peaches

Whew! That makes me hungry

Here are my *recent* examples:

Overeating: Last night for dinner I ordered a beautiful plate of veggie tamales, beans, and rice.  It was so delicious I had to eat the whole thing even though I was full halfway through.  Definite overeating

Binging: Last night (again) I watched a movie with friends + halloween candy = complete binge.  At this point I was completely full, but continued to eat 7pieces of chocolate candy (400 fatty calories).  It's really a mental thing... I was in control of my eating and I made myself eat so much I felt sick.

i just binged on 700 calories of halloween candy. i hate when I do that.  But I'll run for an hour or so tomorrow and then see how much I weigh.
