Speaking of ice cream' date=' I went grocery shopping today (not fun) and I noticed the ice cream section is overflowing with "healthy" choices

Haha what a marketing scam![/quote']

I'm smilin right now bc u are so funny. Think of ice cream like a bowl of lard. Yep it's a big bowl of lard. We've worked too hard to get where we are right now. We've all done really good and will continue. But we can sure dream about it. :)

Haha.. My nana used to say that about Oreo Cookies (my favorite cookie) to me!

And used to tell her "I don't care if they were made out of rat guts, I like em"

But she and you are right :) and I'm sitting pretty today not even thinking about ice cream!

Hey my nana used to tell me I was one "smart cookie" too! What the??? Was she saying I was as dumb as lard? :o:P

Oh the Protein bars!! Those will be the death of us! I had to eat all of mine just to get rid of them!

Hehehe... On a good note they are gone and I will not be buying them by the box anymore at costco, just to tempting and easy :D

Yeah, I have Protein Bars on the mind often too. Cut em though! I can't eat them ( the chocolate ones) because they make me want more. My favorite deserts were oatmeal raisin cookie, Oreo cookie, apple fritter and old fashion donut ( or holes). They were so yummy. Now you are probably wishing you had one. :)

OK you guys!

I haven't seen this on here in while, but you may already know it. A frozen bananna makes a great ice cream like snack if you cut in rounds before freezing and the run it through a blender or food processor. I use one of those tiny food processors that holds about a cup. It looks rough at first, but just keep pulsing it and scraping it down and it will magically turn creamy and yummy.

As for waffles, I eat the Nutrigrain or Vans Whole Grain with sugar free Mrs. Butterworths Syrup and 1/2 banana cut in rounds.

Jump Planks. That sounds too much like burpies. I'm still traumatized from doing them in 8th grade PE.

Thanks for sharing this link! I may have to modify some of the ingredients (would almond milk work in it, I wonder?) but it sounds worth it!

I bought the exact ice creaqm maker that she uses... the reviews are good for it for the price. I got mine on sale for around $35 I think...

You need the fat in the soy milk to make it an ice-creamy texture. It's really good and the ingredients are basically the same as a Protein shake.

What the hell was I thinking?! You can shout it too, it's okay. I deserve it.

Yesterday it was a beautiful, warm day full of sunshine and such. I stayed outside as much as possible with my puppy and we enjoyed NOT focusing on things like loneliness, an empty house, and food temptations.

Today it is a typical Pittsburgh day. Cold, grey, and it's raining. I'm feeling the emptiness of the house even with the puppy napping peacefully. All I want is comfort. And wouldn't you know, I reached for that damned box of waffles that has been in the freezer for over six months. (Can we say Eww?!)

I toasted one waffle, measured one serving of low-calorie butter substitute and .25 serving of Syrup before it hit me that I was eating for comfort. A waffle with butter and syrup would make me so ill and offers no nutritional value-WTH?!

So, I tossed it all into the outside garbage bin. The box of waffles from the freezer and the syrup went as well- just for good measure. I'm still lonely and the weather is still crappy but at least my insane addiction didn't win this time, so it's a victory I'll happily claim. :)

You are a good writer, fun to read your posts. Stay strong, one day you can eat a waffle, with a little syrup....although you won't be able to eat much of it!!!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
