I don't blame you - I'd want the carpet in too!

I think bringing the coffee and beiges in would work.

I just thought of a darker muave color for the bath, i think it should work with peach?

Well i have to go finish my cooking. Talk to everyone later. :)
 
The spaghetti was delicious. Speaking of noodles, i havnt had noodles in over 2 months! It was just something i thougt i couldnt have so i quit noodles cold turkey. Spaghetti has never tasted more delicious then it has today.


I found something out yesterday about myself. Ever since i stopped growing i always thought i was tall and for some reason thought i was 5'7, a long story with all that, but i am actually 5'5! It's only 2 inches, but wow! i thought i was tall! lol
I always called my mom shorty and shes's 5'4 . lol So with this whole deal, my bmi is actually worse than i thought.

I agree that you can have anything in moderation. I do think that if you're gonna eat things like pasta that it should be the whole grain pasta. It tastes really good and it's better for you! Just make sure you don't over do it in the portions! I know when I eat pasta it's like an all you can eat buffet...well, at least it was. But when I do make pasta I try to make enough for almost proper portions (I still eat more than I should but it's not even 1 plate vs 3) and I also make the whole wheat.
 
beautiful home! looks like u r having tons of fun painting up ur place!
suggestion- keep ur walls lighter shade of peach. it'll make it looker brighter & roomier. i'm thinking any other shade would probably clash. (unless, thats the idea!)

Thanks :)

Yes do try the tuna!! let me know if you try it..I have a taste for some, but it takes time to make it, and i'm just too tired today.Maybe this weekend lol.

I also tried RJ's recipe for the tuna patties. It's listed in the recipes here on the forum. Those were really good too. I could still taste the fishiness, but i actually really liked it.

I hate the fishy tasting tuna I can a little but when I make my tuna slad the onions vinager miracle whip and mustard outbitter the fish lol.I will make when I finish this 7 day diet I cant wait to eat food like that again lol have a good night Tammy
 
Mm, pasta!

I don't think there are really any foods that you can't eat, unless you have dietary restrictions (vegetarian, kosher, allergies, etc). You can even have fast food, as long as it's in small portions and you balance it out with healthy foods.

Well, ok. Actually, things like deep fried snickers bars may be something you should just avoid. But even so, just a few bites once a year won't harm you :)
 
Deep fried snickers bar??? I know I love snickers, but I didn't know such a thing existed :p I'm glad we don't have that here otherwise I'd have to go try it out :p All I know is the deep fried ice cream I've had is mucho tastey! lol I haven't had that in years tho... thank goodness.
 
I'm a fiend for pasta crazy and I manage to have it almost every other week. Sometimes it's the regular stuff, and other times I get the whole wheat pasta. It hasn't affected my weight loss progress; but like everyone else has said, the key is eating it in moderation. Oh and good luck with the decorating. It sounds as though you're having a lot of fun doing it.
 
Good morning girl :)

What colors did you decide for your bathroom?
(and are you staying off that scale???)
 
Sorry, I'm just doing a drive-by today. I'm bogged down by studying. :( I hope you have a wonderful day! Take care.

Hello :) Havn't been on here all day..

I have not stepped on that scale! I think i now am scared too :eek: I went to a baby shower at a friends house. I over did it today on taco dip and tortillas, veggies and dip, fruits, 1 small cheese pizza. I hope i didnt over do it. I don't feel guilty though. I am in a happy mood ..I got my pedometer today, and it is the walking advantage. 14 bucks :D I'm going for my walk now.

Well for the colors, i think i am going to go with a very light peach, maybe i can get a border with a different color to distract the peach. Carpet people were here today with an estimate and are ready to lay the carpet, so we should have the rooms painted this weekend. I cant wait to have our new bedrooms! We(my husband, 2 kids and I) have been sleepin in one bed for 4 months now :eek: The original bedrooms were on the 1st floor, and are gone since my husband has knocked down all the walls for remodeling. Can't wait..

Well im going for my walk now.
 
Don't feel bad about your eating! I'm sure you don't eat like that everyday, so it's ok. I know this weekend is gonna be a major challenge (sat - bf's step dad's b-day... his mom always has tons of food prepared. Sun - easter brunch at my sister's husband's family with all our family... now that will be a feast :p ) So I'm gonna try my best not to overdo it, however it is a holiday and I will be treating myself... so there!

I hope you have a great easter, and good luck with all your renovations and getting your bed back!
