whole wheat pasta
I just can't make myself like it. I've tried, I want to like it, but I don't. Doesn't matter if I put low calorie butter, spaghetti sauce, parmesan cheese.....it just leaves a yucky after taste in my mouth. Anyone agree, or do you love it? Guess it's back to white pasta for me.

So I was craving a Big Mac pretty bad, then I saw the 'Mac Snack Wrap' advertised today and couldn't get it out of my mind, so I caved. When I got home, what do you know - only 350 calories for something that tastes like a Big Mac! I never thought I'd be able to enjoy the taste of one again, but 350 calories is definitely…

thyroid issues
I wasn't sure which board to put this under, but I've had an underactive thyroid for years and have taken medication on and off. Last summer I told my doctor that I hadn't taken my meds in quite a while because I just don't feel any difference between taking them and not, so I forgot to take them. She suggested I try a…

Question about greek yogurt...
I finally found some Greek yogurt that I'm always hearing about and decided to give it a try. I got Oikos vanilla (it was all I could find) and I did not like it at all!!! It was tart and bland, and basically tasted like I was eating a spoonful of sour cream. Is this how it is supposed to taste??

MFP vs. Biggest Loser
This website allows me 1,230 calories per day... the biggest loser suggests 7 calories per 1 pound of body weight, which would give me 1,575 per day.

Unclean Eating Club?
Ok, I admit it - I'm lazy when it comes to food. Maybe that will change over time but for now it is the truth.
