LOL! I understand that. I used to think the same. So never say never! ?

I heated up a Trader Joe's vegan tikka masala and, for the first time in my life, I roasted Brussel sprouts. I hated sprouts as a kid. I would have to have them every Christmas day. Now I actually cook them for myself. It's funny how our tastes change as we get older!

This is a sunset I took a couple of months ago. One of the most amazing sunsets I've ever seen.

One of my favourite snacks is peanut butter on toast. I try to limit that to days when I work out due to the high calorie count. It tastes better after exercise anyway!

Another type two diabetic here. I was diagnosed in August 2008 and put on Metformin right away. My fight against the disease went up and down until December 2014 when my A1C was 7.2 and the doctor wanted to put me on a second medication. I don't remember what it was called but when I checked...

Thank you. I'll be haunting the healthy food forums from now on getting ideas. Getting healthy is not the easiest thing but it's definitely much easier when you see dramatic results.

We had a blizzard a week ago. Since then the weather has been on the mild side. We even got into the mid 50's today. As far as I'm concerned an early spring would be more than welcome now even though this has been the mildest winter I can remember.

I made a nice healthy stir-fry tonight. Well, healthy-ish. I cooked spinach with Trader Joe's frozen rice, black beans, cauliflower, and meatless beef strips. It came out pretty good.

LOL> I think I was happy because for the first time I was able to shovel the snow without getting out of breath or having palpitations. I went on a health journey in 2015, losing over 30 lbs and I started running. I'm definitely much fitter than I used to be and it really showed when it came...

This is my first time attempting to upload a photo on this site so I hope it works. This is me after shoveling two feet of snow a week ago!

Yeah, exercising is a good way to increase your calorie allowance for the day. Especially running.

Hi, I'm a type 2 diabetic who has lost over 30 lbs and gotten off diabetes meds through watching what I eat and exercising. Does anyone belong to MyFitnessPal? I use the calorie counter on that site. I'm looking to step things up and start cooking healthier meals at home. Which is what...

It's currently 7 degrees with about seven inches of snow on the ground. Frigid!

I just posted on Facebook earlier that bacon makes everything taste good! I'm going to have to try this.

I second the comment about Skyfall. We went to see it last night. An amazing film.

Hi Jeanette, welcome to DC!

mmmmm Shrimp and bacon together. That sounds too good for words. I'm going to have to try this!

Just had grilled chicken sausages with pasta and a delicious sauce my wife made up consisting of lentil soup, a little water, butter, kale, chopped broccoli, peas, 10 seasonings including wholewheat breadcrumbs, grated cheese and 2 drops of kraft light cream cheese ranch dressing. Purely...

Had a high of 88 today and tomorrow and through the weeknds we're going to be in the 90's. This summer is brutal!

My day can be summed up simply by saying: I need a better job!

Top of the list, mushrooms! Next is broccoli. After that it's harder to choose. I've gotten to really like zucchini. I also love onions.

I might have to try those chopped onions. Peeling and chopping onions is my least favourite thing to do.

Stir-fried beef with sauteed potatoes and broccoli, mushrooms and peppers. With a few added spices and flavourings. Delicious. My wife has some talent in the kitchen!

green grapes potatoes... mashed or baked?
