I used to be extremely sensitive to mosquito bites when I was a kid.
Size wise, it was like half a ping pong ball under my skin, and my lymph nodes would swell.

Well, soup definitely should not be complex. Soup should be one of those things where you throw together your favorite meats and veggies into a broth, and enjoy! I've taken a peek at the recipe you...
I've been craving a warm hearty casserole for a while, and stumbled upon this one being shared on the web.
I don't normally share recipes, but man, this sounds like something I can eat every night!...
Say I make beef or turkey jerky in my home dehydrator with nothing but seasonings and plenty of salt... how long is it safe to store? I don't trust my jerky instruction book which came with the unit,...
I have been calorie counting for so. darn. long, that I subconsciously know the calories for everything I eat on a daily basis. Protein, fat and carb counts for my common foods too.
I guess it's...
I felt this a little bit when my parents bought a whole cow 2 years ago. Around the time they were traveling a lot for their jobs (away from home for weeks, up to a month)
It filled up our deep...
I'd eat the cookies first, then just stick my finger right into the frosting.
One of the great injustices of my childhood that we still joke about nowadays, was when my mom ended up giving away all...
I'm a fan of rice cakes for almond butter spreading, but I've also seen many gluten-free crackers in my grocery store. Even in non-health oriented grocery stores, you can find at least a couple...
Fat is important for good health, but calories still do add up.
Anyways, I'd say just try a hot smoothie. One day I was mixing up a fruit smoothie with some protein powder, I had been having...
I was raised by fairly fat-phobic parents. Breakfast was instant sugary flavored oatmeal, or fruitloops with skim milk, or poptarts, eggo waffles, toaster strudels, etc.
Recess granola bar was...
Speaking of dog waste being bad on crappy kibble, I walk to university and I always have to dodge the exact same dog's crap. How can I tell it's the same dog? It's neon yellow, mushy, ragged, and...
My boyfriend insisted on getting a futon for his bedroom-free bachelor suite. Turns out, he hasn't bothered putting it into 'couch mode' once.
Hmm... full fat greek yogurt is pretty darn healthy. I'm thinking extra butter would work, plus something to give it the tangy taste normally found in yogurt, like lemon juice.
Here's a tough nut to crack: (har har, I am hilarious)
I understand perfectly why dairy slow weight loss. Dairy was designed to pack weight onto baby animals, and elicits a higher than normal...
Tom Naughton gets full credit for teaching me that everything I had been taught was crap. Fat-Head kick started my Primal journey.
Mark Sisson gets a hearty thanks for teaching me a lifestyle plan...
It's nice living on the west coast of Canada. We have a lot of ethnic groups who have well established themselves. We have some cities where minorities outnumber the 'Caucasians'.
Something I found...
Reminds me of my aunt. When she was trying to diet a while back, she would whip out an old 90s Gameboy (the big grey brick one!) and play tetris and other games.
Mark Berkhan of LeanGains has...
Ha! I've used that excuse before! In two semesters of university so far, I've only eaten on campus... once? And I deeply regret it, the cafeteria sushi made me sick.
When I mention not eating on...
A girl in my university class mentioned to someone that she's no longer eating wheat. The guy responds "wheat, or MEAT?"
She responded wheat, and I quickly piped up and confirmed that I also heard...
My boyfriend works here in the Nanaimo Superstore in Produce. He had night cleaning shifts before, and after he moves the display cases for the produce, there's often tons of moldy produce that fell...
I have saved SO much money by only drinking water or the occasional green tea brewed at home. Maybe point this out?
I once checked out the nutrition facts on imitation crab, it has more carbs than protein! And the ingredient list was PHENOMENALLY long.
Shell out the little extra for rolls with real crab. The...
THAT is pro-level fasting!
I have done a 24 hour fast a few months ago, didn't quite agree with me at the time, but I should try it again sometime now that I'm slowing adapting better.
Congrats! It's a wonderful feeling!
I was at my local Costco and noticed capri pants on a nice sale. I used to shop at plus sized womens' stores, at my max, a size 18 was really snug.
Buying the...
I have been eating two meals a day, but I feel a change coming on.
Before I followed a pretty basic 8-hour window intermittent fasting schedule.
After a while, I ended up shortening it to 5...
