Odat: Welcome! I'll add you on the board tomorrow for the goal of 8 pounds.

Siren: I absolutely adore Indian cuisine. My favorite. Glad we don't have an Indian restaurant nearby or else I'd never lose weight! Congrats on your weight loss.

I have lost a few pounds so far, but I think it's related to not taking in those liquid calories, not really that I have been adhering to my self-imposed diet or anything. I'm making roasted veggie pannini sandwiches for the hub and I for lunch, then tandoori shrimp and pav bhaji (Indian vegetable curry) with naan for dinner. I'm also going to make my own salsa and Italian wedding soup today. Winter is great for spending time in the kitchen cooking!

I am so jealous!!! I wish I liked to cook. I really don't enjoy it. I'm not an Indian food fan, in fact, I don't step out of the box often enough, lol. I watch the Food Network constantly and oftent wish I was more open minded.

Odat - I live on the East coast of the US, yes.

I'm not super duper adventurous with food especially meat dishes, but I will usually try almost anything veggie. A lot of the Indian recipes I enjoy are veggie side dishes.

Hippyman: what is your secret!!!!!

Pauly: sounds yum! Have a great time and you never know, maybe you won't see that pound coming back!

Phin: my husband and my friend had a shouting match last night and she stormed out. Now I have to patch things up between them! Talk about husbands!!!! He couldn't keep his mouth shut! I think he insulted her "country" which he insists isn't a "country." Ahhhhh!!!!! Believe me, I should have spilled coffee on him last night over his HEAD!

I do have a special diet secret that I shall pass along to you all. It's my most special "Jelly Belly Bean Diet". I found a beautiful cut glass candy dish at a local charity shop and I went to the candy store. There are 50 flavors of jelly belly beans and they only have 3 calories each. I carefully choose all my favorite flavors and took them home to their new bowl. Now when I want something to eat, I make myself drink a huge glass of water and also suck on one jelly bean. I enjoy the flavor, as it melts slowly in my mouth. If I still want to eat and it's not meal time, I repeat this process. Sounds silly but it's working for me. Also I have 3 doggers that love to go for walks and bike rides...that helps too. The biggest secret is that I no longer consume 18 beers per day. Think of all the calories in that? The weight is coming off quickly, for sure!

Happy Hippy will lose 18 more lbs...eating Jelly Belly beans, just watch me!

Ummmmm, hippy man.... Thanks for sharing that diet secret, but I don't think it will work for me.. If jelly belly beans are the same as jelly beans, I'll eat a million 1/2 of them and gain 25 lbs.... I have no self control when it comes to jelly beans....

Hi, everyone!

Ok, recap of recent news, hippy man lost 12lb on jelly belly diet... And of course welcome, mya, quake and odat.

I didn't sleep well last night... One of those "not sure if I was asleep or not" nights....

I was thinking I should put lbs already lost and lbs still to go some on there... Any thoughts? But I would need help because I don't remember everyone's original goals.....

Put me down for twenty pounds

All that red wine and the snacks that went with it brought me twenty-five pounds of excess weight. Down five now, with the help of Weight Watchers meetings and low carb eating. I did think the weight would roll off much quicker, being AF, but...not so much.

Best wishes to all in your quest for good health!

Thank you, Ally! :thanks:Oh, dear...bees! I know insects are an important food source for many cultures, but not my protein of choice! Friedabee; free to be.

Yea, I was at a traditional Chinese wedding chowing down the good 10 course dinners when my husband commented, "wow, you really like those fried bees!" I said "WHAT?!@.@@@@@@". He pointed to the dish, I yelled at him:"why didn't you stop me! You know I don't eat insects!!! I'm phobic to them!" He said calmly,". Didn't you see the wings?!"

I was so upset at him!!!!! All his fault of course, everything in life that goes wrong is all his fault!

It's always their fault!!!!!!

How's everyone doing today? I've had a decent day. Worked, then worked out. I'm pretty damn hungry right about now though.

Still staying pretty much the same, though I can't complain about pounds lost. I have lost inches off my belly (pooch) and my waist. So that's good.
