I am 28 years old, but not afraid to admit that every morning before work I eat a bowl of cereal in front of the TV and watch cartoons... just like I did as a kid :D Where Do You Eat Your Breakfast? Flag this comment	4/7/11 4:39 PM
I don't think this would work for me either. It's very humid where I live and my apartment faces the setting sun! It gets really hot here at least in the summer months. I might be able to pull it off in the winter, but I go through about 6 liters of milk a week! I also agree with directornikki: having to drive to the market every few days is a waist of time and fuel. I supposed if you lived right by a market and could walk it would different, but what if you have to drive half way across town, and don't get me started on not having the time, lol. Unplug the Fridge: Does Food Really Need To Stay Cool? \| Apartment Therapy Re-Nest Flag this comment	6/15/10 3:44 PM
I really wish I could eat rice. It's a texture thing for me I think, but it's in sooo many dishes and restaurants always have it on the side and I wish I could learn to like it. Also, I am with people on the eggs. I have never been able to eat them and also hate the smell, but at least they are easier to stay away from and I am just fine with pancakes, waffles or crepes when I go out for breakfast. Yum.

My favorite thing to grill is salmon, but I'm a B.C. girl so I practically live off the stuff. What's Your Favorite Thing to Cook on the Grill? \| Apartment Therapy The Kitchn Flag this comment	6/7/10 2:43 PM
I agree fully that exercise and portion control are very important. That along with eating a balanced array of foods from every food group are the three most important things for sure. One thing that I have found to help me, personally, lose a lot of weight was just making sure I was getting enough fiber. I was never a fan of bran (lame rhyme) and as a result I had some health issues. Ever since I started eating high fiber cereals my weight has been steady at 120 lbs (I'm 5'3"), and I'm pretty sure that's normal for my size. If you hate exercising like I do, then dance classes might help too. I take belly dancing and bhangra; that way I am getting a workout without really noticing. Belly dance is great for your self esteem too because it's one place where a jiggle is a bonus! I also find hiking has helped me, and I go once a week weather permitting... :D How Does a Food-Lover Maintain a Healthy Weight?
