Off-Topic / Need advice for back problem

« on: January 06, 2010, 05:06:25 am »Message ID: 126729

Hi everyone.  I have been having serious back pain since last May.  I have seen chiropractor and no results.  I finally had an MRI which shows 2 herniated discs.  I am currently in physical therapy but so far ....  at least the pain is not as bad as before but I still have leg pain and I am so stiff.  I am trying so hard to get back into shape but I am afraid to do anything because of my back.  Has anyone else had this problem?  Is there hope?

Off-Topic / What is your favorite snack food?

« on: January 06, 2010, 03:48:34 am »Message ID: 126723

I am trying to loose weight and all I think about is food!   My favorite snack is popcorn with lots of butter and
parmesan cheese.  I also love any kind of nuts. 

I would love to find a good "low calorie" snack but I guess I just need to cut down on how much I eat.

Off-Topic / Re: fun way to get fit

The wii itself is arout $199. The balance board and wii fit plus game is around $99.  You really don't have to have accessories but they are fun.  I also bought the wii resport and it is a blast however you have to have a wii motion controller to play but you get one with the game..... it is better to get an extra regular controller however if you have multiple players.  I need to get an extra wii motion but that is another $18 .... but for around $300 you can have a LOT of fun.

Where to you shop for groceries?   Everything is so expensive now I try to get the most for my money but that is hard to do.  I usually but most everything at Walmart except for the meat and produce.

I am always looking for new recipes.  My husband will eat anything but I try my best to be creative.  This is a recipe for a GREAT dip/spread you can put on crackers or dip veggies in.  Everyone that has tasted it loves it.

CHEESY MEXICAN RANCH DIP

2 8oz cream cheese softenened  (use lowfat)
1 large red sweet pepper or 1/2 red & 1/2 green
2 green onions - use entire onion sliced thin
1 large can chopped black olives
1 can mexicorn (I use the southwest kind with black beans)
1 pkg ranch buttermilk dressing (hidden valley)
3 T sour cream (this is optional - it makes it a little softer to spread on crackers)

set out cream cheese to soften, slice pepper, entire onion & olives into small thin pieces.  Mix ranch dressing in well with cream cheese.  Add onions and peppers.  Fold in black olies, fold in corn.  Serve chilled with chips, crackers or veggies.

Off-Topic / Has anyone seen the new Sherlock Holmes movie?

« on: January 05, 2010, 03:45:59 am »Message ID: 126374

It is one of the best movies I have seen in a long time.  It is full of adventure and comedy as well.  My husband and I have a date night every week and about once or twice a month it includes a movie.  However lately there really hasn't been much to see.  I want to see Avatar but he really doesn't want to so I may have to wait until it is released on DVD.
