Sooze, in a serious mode here. Nada wrong with you. You are a great person and ALL Guys on ST would agree beautiful, just as you are. Russ yo a lucky dude.
In my vast (jess kidding...but I am a wee bit older) experience if you are happy and loved, the cutting edge of looks and athletic perfection is not number 1 on a scale from one to ten.
Last 10 years I was 10 to 20 pounds over weight. But Hey, Dboy loved me .... I was the one that felt uncomfortable with how I looked and felt.
Now I have nothing better to do than eat well and work out. Say, life is weird....but good if yo keep on.
Don't know if this makes sense....bottom line tho we all agree on ST Sooze is Special. :D

Susan, hang in there. You have the right idea. Portion control, not deprivation. I solve my sweet tooth with a jolly rancher left over from the last wall bag. One, just one, and it is so good I do not chew it, let it melt. Sweet for ten minutes. Also nuts carry a big calorie punch, watch em closely, they are too nutricious for their size.
Come on ya losers, it is only the begining, there is plenty of time for 10 pounds left. You know, we climbed late last night in the heat, and I was so burnt and tired from cranking near the limit, that when I got home late, I wasn't even hungry. Just sore and tired. Shower and off to bed. Hint, hint, hint. Felt hungry this morning, and sore, but a good sore, you know?
Hang in there, do not get frustrated by a 100 calorie binge, take a breath, recenter the mind, and focus. What were we talking about again. Oh yea, losers!
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, etc..

Thank you Bob. Good advice about the nuts and dried fruit is even worse. Thankfully they both carry fiber which is good.
Hard candy lives on my desk and I eat 2-4 pieces a day depending on what is going on.
For those of you with a sweet tooth....Suger Free Jello is a nice choice. Virtually no calories, zero fat and zero carbs. You can even do it up with a squish of whipped creme.
Amazingly, without any working out (other than activity I have normally) I'm down 3.4 - heading into a weekend is scary but perhaps the climbing will help. Let's hope we don't get rained out.
I'm going to pack my meals right now. Tuna, Low Carb Pita bread, some lunch meat, cheese and a few eggs for breakfast.
No Beer. No Cookies.

Joseph, sorry to hear you suck too. It's frustrating....we're better than this.

Anyone have idea on how many calories can be burned up by a couple of hours of vigorous love making?

Fattrad,
No, if this was for one of my movies, it would last about 60 seconds. If interested, you can check out my latest titled: The Minute Man.

Au Naturale: Marine Phytoplankton
Marine Phytoplankton: the basis of the food chain. They are the very meaning of food.
The blue whale is the largest mammal ever to exist, can weigh up to two hundred tons, and lives on phytoplankton and krill (which eat only phytoplankton). Whales produce the largest brains and healthiest nervous systems of any mammal.
According to NASA phytoplankton provides 90% of the oxygen we breath.
Marine Phytoplankton contains omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (including docosahexaenoic acid and DHA), nucleotides, RNA, DNA, protein, chlorophyll, vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, C,D, major minerals, trace elements, antioxidants, and polysaccharides.
Research indicates that marine phytoplankton contains every nutrient needed for the creation and maintenance of new cells.
Phytoplankton is 100% bioavailable to the human body. When you eat it, none of it is "wasted".
*Improves immune system
*It's an anti-inflammatory
*the high-alkaline mineral content makes it ideal for detoxing - detoxes w/o demineralization
*Improves memory and concentration
*Normalizes Blood sugar imbalances
*Better Sex
*Faster recovers (illness or injury)
*Nervous system repair
*Gram for gram marine phytoplankton is likely the most nutrient-dense, alkaline superfood on Earth
Omege-3 fatty acid absorption
Omega-3 fats are essential to human health. They reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, neurological problems, and behavioral disorders. In general marine phytoplankton is superior to fish oil as a source for phospholipids that help us absorb long-chain, omega-3 fatty acids. In essence, the efficacy of fish oils, including cod liver oil, krill, and algae oils, will be improved when taken with marine phytoplankton.
If you are strict vegan or vegetarian and do not choose to consume any animal products whatsoever, then marine phytoplankton is strongly recommended. This will supply you with the essential long-chain forms of omega-3 (DHA and EPA).
Marine phytoplankton has a natural relationship with sulphur and it is recommended that you combine it with MSM. This appears to amplify the potency of both products, especially the anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects.
(Note: all the information above comes from David Wolfe's book: Superfoods)
FedEx guys is delivering twelve 1-oz bottles today. $37/bottle if anyone is interested (normally $55-$65 when purchased singly). But just think... those blue whales are swimming around, mouths wide open, eating the stuff by the ton. The injustice in the world never ceases to amaze me....

peace and love to all,
