I haven't tried it; I am using fitday.com
This website is free and is a tool used to help keep track of your calorie/fat/carb intake.
I have limited myself to 1000-1200 calories a day. I was really hungry for the first couple of days, but then I adjusted. Now, I am not hungry. If you go less than 1000 calories you won't lose any weight. I started about 2 mos ago and I just hit the 20-pound mark today. I don't have time to exercise. I work full time and have 2 small children. Now that it is nice, we walk across the street to the park a couple times a week, which doesn't really count 'cause it isn't "strenuous" at all. Just being more active has helped me. Plus I feel better about myself.
I have a long way to go, but I am off to a great start! Good Luck!!!
Pantry full and freezer full...but will NEVER eat Spam!
//
Pantry full, 2 freezers full.
Only need to get paper products and fish. I have lots of tuna, Spam, canned chicken, sardines, corned beef hash, etc.
Got our veggie seeds last week.
Stocking up on more canned veggies and fresh veggies, mostly potatoes, as soon as I can. Potaoes last quite a while in our cold room, which is an extra bedroom with no heat. Also want to get extra bread. Love homemake bread, but DH doesn't like it for sandwiches, so I have to get store-bought bread for that. I can still buy bread at my local produce store at 2 for $1.75 and it freezes very well. In spring, it used to cost 2 for $1.25, but that's still cheaper than other places.
I'm not doing this because of what's coming. I'm doing it because I've done it for years, but usually in the fall. This fall I could only buy a few things at a time because DH not working, so I figure another month, I'll be back to normal.
What concerns me...(sm)
You've correctly identified that this sort of behavior using his work computer is risky, and I'm wondering if that's part of the appeal.
The problem itself is obviously not just a "male" issue. Not only are there plenty of females looking at porn nowadays, but obviously there are lots of females (and males) participating as subjects in the porn - and not on the "professional" level like it used to be, but ordinary "everyday" people doing it as "amateurs" for no money or anything like that, and posting their pictures all over the Web.
While I'm sure it's true that most men would look if a porno pic (or on TV, etc.) popped up in front of them, it's true of a lot of women, too. This is becoming much more of a "unisex" problem, and all of the media are exploiting it for all it's worth.
If it's any comfort at all, most of this kind of activity usually dies down as people mature and get a handle on their hormones. If not, some addiction therapy might be necessary because there's nothing constructive about wasting life's precious minutes viewing porn.
Dirt concerns
Your daughter could get head lice from the girl coming to your house, from school, etc. Let her go to the party, and have her take a shower when she comes home!
Well just jump in there with your concerns..
All men are created equal. It is understood that the "women" are included.
Do her parents share your concerns?-nm
Anyone else going to Cancun for Spring Break and concerned about current safety concerns
We're all set to go to Cancun for Spring Break and then we hear all of this on the news about people being careful in Mexico because of the drug cartel activities and killings etc. Does this even involve Cancun or is it just the border places. The Spring Breakers are being warned about going so it makes me wonder if it is just the borders as most Spring Breakers do not go to the border towns. Does anyone have anymore information. I have a good friend who met her husband in Mexico, has crossed the borders etc and she said going to Mexico isnt worth risking your life because they hate Americans. Yikes.. I don't know whether to go or not or if I'm just being paranoid now.
I know full well that I was able to...
say "no" to sex at 18 years old, and 17 and 16 and even before that. I knew what sex was and how babies are made. I dated older men and I held my ground. I do believe that all 16, 17 and 18-year-olds know exactly what they are getting into. I think the man is a creep and that he, because of his authority position, had an obligation to stay away from her, but I just can't see two consenting adults having sex as a crime. Inappropriate--absolutely.
Full foil and cut - $100 nm

HAHAHAHA - I too got FULL of myself..sm
Got full of myself when I lost the weight....I had gone from 210 to 158 and really got so full of myself for a period of time...started wearing dresses and heels and all that stuff *LOL*
For the full 45 days!!!! nm
!
Full of Joy Sister Cat!!!
Thanks Dahling!!
Is it a full moon? (nm)
nm
I think she full of baloney
Stranger things have happened, though. You are positive she had a hysterectomy? It just doesn't pass the smell test.
..... she IS full of baloney (duh) nm
nm
You are full of information!
Thanks!
Do you remember when Nick went away to boarding school at something like 7 and came back 19? It's completely crazy but I know they have to do it to keep the story line going. I can't wait to see what he looks like though...Sharon or Nick. Michael's dad, I thought that was a dead issue. I wonder who decided to go ahead with finding him. Here we go with Gloria again huh. lol
I missed today but watched yesterday's online. I'm so glad Victoria got a chance to talk to Sabrina. I'm still hoping Sabrina doesn't kick the bucket but sounds like she will. I wonder how Adam will like step-mommy Niki moving into the ranch...I think that's where things are headed.
You are still full of rage.
Shut up, you say? Tell it to yourself and then, see professional help. A pastor would be a good place to start. Many of them dedicate their ministries beyond the pulpit to domestic violence and abuse. For those who do not feel at home in a church, they have many resources to sliding scale social services, often some of which are free of charge.
Because this is a board full of
professional people who strive to be as accurate as possible in what they do. I just figured they'd want to know. You never know when you're going to be called upon to type that next national security document that needs to reference a Navy SEAL and you'd want to be correct, wouldn't you?
Yes, now I'm being silly.
I'm just saying, she might not know the full story if
she wasn't around until the friend actually died. Perhaps, they had marital problems before the diagnosis. I'm not saying he is or isn't a scumbag, I'm just saying if you had no idea the woman's husband left her until after she had died and you were at the funeral, then you probably don't know much else about her personal life.
I have been doing WW online (sm)
You can get a one-week free trial and then it's $65 for a three-month membership, and then something like $16 a month after that. It lets you plug in all your food for points values and calculates everything for you. So far it's working for me, even though I had a little setback, but that was my own indiscretion.
As far as goodies, I LOVE them too, and I have found lots of sugar-free and low carb substitutes such as sugar free ice cream and sugar free soda. They have really come a long way since the old Nutra-Sweet days and these things are truly satisfying now. My husband loves Kool-Aid and he has been making it with Splenda for a long time now, and my kids love it too, and I love the fact they are getting less sugar.
Anyway, WW is a really good program. In fact, one of my docs I transcribe for consistently recommends it to his overweight patients. I personally know several people who have been successful with it. Hopefully I will too, and if you choose to go back on it, best of luck to you!
P.S. Your hubby might actually enjoy the sugar-free, lowfat treats as well, who knows?
online
I have bought bras online from Big Girl Bras and Figleaves. You think a 40C is big? Try a 36H! Not fun.
I can buy these online sm
I viewed the ad online at walmart.com and when I clicked on a particular item it said that it would be available in the store and online on Friday. Yeahhh!!!!
She already stated that the garage was full
and that they said they would take them instead. Sometimes you do things like that for family, ya know?
Also, she would most definitely say, "why did you store them near the street where you had other things stolen before and stored yours in a safe place?" That is negligence!
Since their quads were not stolen, only the ones right by the street, it is obvious they acted negligently. She stated that the only things stolen on the property were right near the street before. Why would someone put something that they are storing for someone in the same place? That is negligence.
I have no doubt she would probably tell the OP that they should have cleaned the garage and took care of their own quads, but legally, her sister is at fault.
Did you know you can watch the full episode on www.cbs.com?
Something new they started, pretty cool!
Better question to ask..... Do they get full at lunch? sm
My youngest who took those finally asked me 1 day to add a sandwich as those just did not fill her up. She is a very petite 8 year old who is very active. They are just not enough!! :)
Oh, and take one of those carriage rides for full
xx
HMMM, I would...Be HONEST and pay in full...nm

there's a world full of crap that we can do away with.

My daughter got full tuition
room and board and books paid to Stanford University. She had very good grades and we filled out the FAFSA. They gave a huge financial package to her becuase of our income, which is middle class, but so many people who go there have higher incomes that we qualified for quite a bit of aid. You should apply to whatever school you want to go to because you never know how much they will offer. She also has taken out the PLUS loan for the last 3 years, but the total will be less than half a year of tuition.She is a junior this year and we are so glad she didn't let financial worry keep her from applying to the university she dreamed about. Good luck.
not cute since Full House!
They are really thin.... I hate to admit - because I'm not really a fan of hers - but I think Angelina Jolie is really pretty. . . I've also always thought Julia Roberts was pretty, though not "beautiful".
Before this turns into a full blown....sm
back and forth free for all, you also don't know me personally to make assumptions about my personality. This has gotten old quickly, so I'll leave with these thoughts.
You expressed an opinion saying you were ill about her treatment which you thought was above and beyond.
I expressed an opinion, in turn, basically saying if you were in her situation you would want that same protection, considering it's very plausible that it's the obsessive fans and need to know that probably put her in this situation.
Opinions are opinions, facts are facts, and considering all the information any of us knows come from cutthroat reporters who are looking to make that big story, it would be rare if anyone knew any true story about a celeb.
I know if I were famous and hounded by people 24/7, and having a mental breakdown to boot, you can bet your bippy I'd do whatever in my power to make sure I had nobody around who could violate my privacy any more than it had already been violated.
As for the doctors getting suspended, if they weren't on her case, and it's not a teaching hospital, and if she has security, then it's for a reason, and they should have known better than to violate her privacy. Doctors can violate HIPAA just as easily as anyone else, and that's what they were doing, because it's also very possible that those same docs who just wanted a quick peek, probably couldn't keep it to themselves, or they wouldn't have been nosing in her business in the first place. They got less than they deserved.
Walk a mile in her shoes. Have sympathy and compassion in your heart for those who need it, which she obviously does!
Full blown celiac here sm
If I eat wheat or oatmeal (I can't have rye or barley either, but it usually isn't something I am exposed to) I feel like I can't breathe for a couple of hours, my belly bloats up, I start tooting like a banchi and then I can't leave the house until all diarrhea leaves me. It is TMI, but celiac stools are yellow to chalky gray, even white, NOT normal and are extremely foul as well.
What this can do to you is make you anemic. You can have malnutrition from never being able to absorb the good stuff in your food. You might be either very thin or rather overweight, but you always feel horrible, no energy, tired. Food never makes you feel better, no matter how hungry you are and how much/little you eat.
Celiac sprue is considered an autoimmune at this point. The body can't digest the gluten (a type of protein) in wheat, barley or rye. Oatmeal has gluten, but it is chemically different from the others mentioned here. Some celiacs can eat it, some cannot; I cannot. You can't eat any Quaker products because they are all severely cross contaminated and will make you sick. What happens when you eat gluten all the time, is that the villi in the intestines flatten and/or fall off. Their surfaces exchange nutrients from the gut into the body. If they are not present or not functional, it dimishes absorption by 80%. On the other hand, celiacs who go on a gut healing diet will have their villi return to a healthy state (about 90% of celiacs recover the lining of the gut).
If you have another AI, you have to know that celiac likes to piggyback with other AI disorders, particularly SLE and Sjorgen's. Also, it is believed that 2/3 of celiacs are concurrently lactose intolerant and/or allergic to dairy. It is estimated that in the US about 1:150 people is a celiac, whereas 1:4500 will be diagnosed during their lifetime.
Never fear, however...gone are the days of rice cakes and hard rice bread! There are many many books on making gluten free bread with bean and alternative grain flours. There is plenty on the internet too. The best book I can recommend is "The Allergy Survival Guide" by Melina, Stepaniak and Aronson. It is everything free...no animal products, eggs, dairy, nuts, fish, shellfish, wheat, yeast, soy...and the recipes are DIVINE.
The best part is that since going on a GF diet last summer I rarely have a day when I am tired and feel crappy, as long as I behave. I have lost about 40 lbs with no effort, unless you call eating fruit, veggies, soy and beans constantly in as large a quantity as I like, an effort. I have been able to add some GF desserts back into my diet and not gain weight. I also have SLE and I am on 7.5 mg of prednisone every day (weaning to 5 mg). Despite doing a 2-month loading dose of prednisone to get the SLE under control last summer, I dropped 18 lbs the first month on it and another 10 the next month and we all know what pred can do to your waistline.
I'll go and make my polenta crust pizza for supper and enjoy the fact that I won't feel sick after I eat and it will taste wonderful.
At this point I think he is full of hooey - sm
he is calm as can be and acting totally normal, humming about the house, etc. I am just sitting back and watching. He has lied in the past to me in order to make me act. Right now he wants me to get moving on my cc issue and either consolidate, do settlement with one of those companies, or declare bankruptcy and I am unsure what to do. He also wants me to start putting stuff on ebay which again I have not done and he is upset about that. So I think he is just playing games at this point, he can be very childish, he is also clinically depressed so that is no help to the issue as he won't get treatment. He had to re-sign and email in forms about drug and alcohol testing yesterday....not the sign of someone about to be laid-off I don't think. There are 2 other guys in the company I think would go before him as he has been a very valuable employee and gets the job done quickly and well....whereas these other 2 guys milk every job and cost the company more money, he also says in cheaper hotels when he travels and the other guys get $160/night rooms whereas he gets $80/night rooms. So they would be pretty dumb from a business standpoint to lay him off and keep these two others, one actually has a brain injury and cannot troubleshoot at all which is a big portion of his job. They have to tell him what the job is, then he can fix it, or give him just maintanance jobs to do. So for now I plan to sit back and watch for a few more days, the weekend will tell me if it is true or not. I can also call his manager and ask what if anything is going on. He will tell me (friend of the family as well). --as for the kids going to parents, too far away unfortunately, so not an option. I will ship them off to a neighbor for an hour or so to play over the weekend though and find out once and for all. Especially since we'd have to find out about unpaid vacation, any severence pay, his 401K....I plan to approach it on that note, ask him for the planned date of lay-off, etc. If I get no straight answers then I will know is really full of it. He'd be really ranting about it all if he was about to lose his job, then again he does surprise me every now and again. Thanks for the advice though.
Book online if you can...
And save your confirmation and payment receipt with your tickets. You should receive confirmation in your cabin at least 24 hours before your first shore excursion. If you don't, check with the Purser's office or the shore excursion desk.
I have traveled on Carnivel three times, most recently last month. I much prefer booking tours online instead of standing in line, and that eliminates finding out your tour is booked up once you get to the desk. Online will tell you immediately if the tour you want, at the time you've chosen, is full or not.
Hope this helps and that you have a great time. I love cruising!
Do your shopping online.
I've been doing all my Xmas shopping online for 6 years now. Way better than dealing with the crowds at malls and stores.
Online dating... Have you tried it?
I'm thinking about trying this. What are your experiences? Which ones are the best dating sites? Thanks!
Online dating
Yes, found my husband on Match.Com, dated two years and have been married for 1 1/2 years now. I was very lucky to have found a good honest man. We are in our sixties.
I am an online subscriber...sm
so I can use all the etools, like the point tracker and the recipe builder. You can use the community area without charge, which include the message boards and I frequent them a lot - sometimes for support and sometimes just to chat about things.
ONLINE SCHOOL
Here where we live for the past two years they have had online high school. I don't know anyone who goes, but it sounds like a good alternative. When my kids (all grown up now) were in Catholic school I reduced the tuition by working there for free three days a week. Could you work something out?
There are courses online - sm
I was curious about it for awhile too and almost signed up for one of the courses. We live fairly rural and I know there are three people in our county who do property appraisals. None of them work full time at it because there is just not enough business. If you live in a larger populated area, it might be worth it for you.
Good luck.
ooh I just asked you this below.....both online!!
at the same time :)
Thanks...I looked up online and what I did was sm
picked it up in a very soft cloth and just looked to make sure it didn't look injured. There was no blood but I am not sure. I took the blanket and put it as close as I could guess where the nest might be. I will check later to see if it is still there. What I read says that the mom's come back once a night to feed the babies and to try to put them back in the nest if possible and that she will call them all when she comes to the nest, so hopefully we didn't miss that window and the little girl or guy can be snuggling with mom and brothers and sisters soon. I feel so bad for the poor thing :(
Do any on you pay your bills online?
I've been doing it for a couple of years now and I love it. Sure saves on the ever increasing postage.
I pay just about all of my bills online
And for the same reasoning the cost of postage and I'm usually too lazy to go to the post office to get stamps.

Hey! I found another site!
http://www.bhpublishinggroup.com/lovedare/book.html#moreinfo
Does anyone here have an online store for their
beading jewelry? I am interested in taking a peek if you bead on the side of MT'ing... I love the jewelry but don't quite have the patience... 
Turbo Tax online
I just did my taxes last week on TurboTax online and got the refund already. It was very convenient, but I wish I had known that in advance. I definitely would not have used them. All companies should have to say where they are and who they are. USA!!
why don't you search online? Look also into
other countries' recipes?
I have one that says "his nose was full of snot."
I'm not kidding. I'm told to type it verbatim and what he says is what he gets.
Eeeuuww.
