Good heavens! My life is too short for me to measure anything. And cinnamon is expensive, so I would say I use about 1/4 tsp for a 6-cup pot.

Everyone should read Mindless Eating. People who are journaling their food underestimate by 20%.

I build in some lying there time. I love snuggling under the covers in the morning, so I give myself 10 minutes for nestling. But not too close to DH who would confuse it with an invitation for a different kind of work out.

First point, and not to be sexist, but you might want to find a chick doc. Second, my doc freaks out over my 5.2, which it has been FOR 10 YEARS. If it is not moving up, then who cares?

Rough day, friend. I am so sorry.
Just keep up what you are doing, and you will turn this around. You have a young body, which always is a plus.
Did you mean 100? g

Actually, on popcorn, they are not too bad.
Keep moving, friends! Your body is the home of your soul. What would god/the universe/your high being feed it?? (and in my case, how much?)
