    Off Topic It's getting to be that time of year. What do you like to make for "comfort food"

    Although Im not big on the cold. Luckily in Arkansas it doesn't get below freezing for long. But, Im one of those that stays cold the whole winter and I don't thaw out until late spring, early summer. (and then I bake when its in the triple digits for the better part of 2 months..lol) We have...

    Food for thought...

    I couldn't resist the title ;) In a normal day, how well do you eat? By this I mean how many treats do you have a day? Since I was little I've always tried to get every food group in each of my meals, and generally allowed myself one treat a day. A treat could be a bowl of ice cream for snack...

    Off Topic How much money do you spend on food each month/week?

    I've been searching for some current data on how much an average family (say, a family of 4) spends on groceries each month. There are very little and current statistics available in the internet (maybe I am using the wrong search engines). We've allotted, what I feel is a sizable amount for...

    Coaches Buzz about 2012-2016 new cycle... food for thought...

    If you have read either the post in Link Removedor visited the Link Removed you have noticed that although there are some general skill changes the biggest difference is the slide of the Level titles to accomodate a 50-50 compulsory/optional split (i.e. a new optional level). So what would once...

    Food/Timing question before meet

    So - meet coming up this weekend, report time of 5:30. About an hour travel time to get there. Can someone help me backtrack food for this? Her last afternoon/evening meet started late, then there were issues with the scores, so the awards were delayed. She was exhausted and starving by...

    Score vs Place: Food for Thought

    I have noticed a trend in our area to post place standings vs scores. Posting I am referring to club websites,facebook pages, and local newspapers. I am confused by this because why not post both the place and the score. Many times a gymnast will score lower but receive a higher place standing...

    Could you chime in on the quality of the food served at the gymnastics camps you have attended? We just got back from 5 days at science camp and it was AWFUL. It was family camp week, and I would not send my children there alone until they were old enough to be making wise food choices on...

    Off Topic From the source: whats in pet food

    My labrador retriever developed what we found out is a grain allergy. The signs were her elbows lost fur, and she was practically eating her paws when she laid down for over 5 minutes. After being offered a $70.00 bag of pet food by the vet I decided to look into feeding alternatives. I saw a...

    Parents Food Ideas

Here's the problem: she has had a rough winter with H1N1, getting tooth infections (finally had two of the 4 involved pulled) and now staph infections. She has never been a very big kid, but is now struggling to maintain her weight. At the...

    Parents Food before meets

    I drove my gymie to an early morning meet Saturday and we had to leave home at about 6:30am. She can't eat that early, but she obviously needs nourishment before competing, so our intention was to stop along the way on our 2-hour drive. All she kept talking about was getting a hamburger...
