Ah, okay, makes sense. Well, you could acquire the task while making the bentos! Here's the one I made for today: http://up.picr.de/7944850kht.jpg Top tier (left): two slices of toast cut into rectangles Bottom tier (right): a boiled egg (it's supposed to be a flower, but as the egg was still wet, t...

Yes, it's me once again. Today, I made a bento to have at lunch at my internship tomorrow. http://up.picr.de/7915494gij.jpg In the middle, we have some scrambled pancake, and on the right, applesauce in two reuseable silicone cupcake molds with an apple slice on top. On the left, there are some slic...

Thank you all so much. This means a lot to me. I sent the same question to an advice columnist and she basically said, "Stop whining, you'll grow out of it." But when you keeo reading about 50-year-olds who will only eat fries, white bread, milk, and cranberry juice, this is kind of hard to believe....

Perhaps you need to eat better food, and cultivate joy in eating. I don't eat any junk food, because I genuinely find the chemical flavor disgusting. But, oh boy! Do I love fresh fruits and veggies!!! I already eat good food and enjoy eating... it's just that my food needs to be PLAIN. No sauce, no...

Picky Eating... help!
Hey guys, I have a food problem, and although it's not about "I can't stop eating and I'm way too fat" (No S is taking care of it, thank Reinhard), I was hoping you could give me some advice. Like many of you, I really like food... certain kinds of food, that is. You see, I'm a picky eater. And I'm ...

I wish you both the best of luck! When I read your post, debrabuf, the first thought that popped into my head was, "Why is she eating out? That's so expensive! She could just bring her own food from home." I'm from Germany, and something I still don't get about US culture is them eating out all the ...

[URGENT] How many NWK S days per month?
Hi everyone, I know I'm only supposed to have two NWK S days per month, but... See, it's my birthday on March 28, so there's one. Then, on March 11, it's my friend's birthday party (haven't seen her in forever and probably won't for a while afterwards, and the party's motto is food, so... that's ano...

Americans Are Now Fat Enough to Require Larger Ambulances
This is so sad. "Americans have gotten so fat that many cities are having to build bigger ambulances. EMS Captain Jose A. Archila probably summarized the situation best when he said, “With a 300-pound patient, it’s not too bad, or even 400 pounds...but to be honest with you, with a 500-, 600-, 7...

What Helps Me With Sweet Cravings
Hi everyone, I think many of you know that feeling - you're not too hungry, but you really, really, really want something sweet. So what do you do if you want to stick to No S? Something I've found helpful is to think about my S days, and to actually plan them. Maybe even make a list of things I wan...

Re: An (almost) 10-month report and thank you
I first read about Everyday Systems a few years ago, and experimented with a few concepts. When I moved into my new place 10 months ago or so, I decided to put them into action.
