    Those look good (the cookies) but I have seriously lost a lot of my sweet tooth since being on this diet. I still eat everything but not nearly as much.

    Brenda! You should totally try avocado... my family doesn't like it so I didn't try it until I got older and now it is literally my favorite food LOL give it a shot!

    Come on now, I tried some nasty *kitten* Marmite when in England... you can brave an avocado! You kicked off 60 some pounds from your bod, so I know you can do it. Even a baby step, like adding a few chunks to a taco or something. :)

    Rule in my house is everyone has to take a bite of everything. You don't have to swallow it but you have to try it!

    I'm fairly brave eating-wise and will try most anything (I don't do animal guts and such although I've tried those in the past too).

    I love avocados and will eat them plain! Guacamole is awesome also!

    New interesting fact about avocados they are great for cleaning the liver! Any food that will help the liver out is a must because a healthy liver equals more fat loss and less agging. I'm 33 and I already have gray hair. From my research eating foods that can help the liver run better will help slow down the aging process.

    Love guacamole! When I was younger I ate the heck out of seven layers from the bell because of the guacamole. lol

    Seven layer quacamole dip is awesome as well!

    ^^ ok then lets talk about anchovies! haha kidding I did hear though that they are the least toxic fish out there. I would have to cut the heads off them and cook them well done though xD

    learned that shark, swordfish, and talopia are all very full of toxins such as mercury as well as other toxins. Shark are toxic because they are at the top of the food chain and eat other fish consuming their toxins. Talopia are toxic because the way they are raised. Fresh caught Alaskan salmon are great for you to eat. Its best to get your omega fish oils through fish rather than the supplement form. Some brands of fish oils are hard for the body to digest all the way. Just what I've heard over the grape fine. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong :)

    I just watched "What the Health?" on Netflix the other day and they discussed this very subject, though I don't think sharks were mentioned.

    I've tried anchovies, icky! My husband loves them though. Years ago, I ordered a large pizza with half anchioves to surprise him. Big mistake! So yeah, I now surprise him with his own pizza with those on it so the anchovies don't stink up even the pieces without it. Lol

    If tuna has bad stuff in it, I've got problems. When I lived in California, I used to go tuna fishing and I would eat that stuff for months straight every day for lunch and a couple times for dinner. Barbeque or deep fried tuna is awesome!

    I would think that you would be safe with that type of tuna. The tuna I was thinking of was the store bought kind in a can.

    Just want to give an update on my journey thus far. I know its been almost a month since my last post. A week ago I've found a good deal on a scale that could possibly weigh me. For 30 bucks I thought why not plus its the same exact scale I've had in the past and thus I knew how to operate it right out of the box. I order it on the weekend and had it delivered on a Wednesday. Very excited to step on it to see if it would weigh me. Was not sure if it would weigh me just yet as the max it would weigh is 550 pounds and starting out at 600 plus I was not exactly sure I had lost that much weight in my first 50 days. I was honestly expecting for the scale to read error, however, to my surprise I was weigh under 550 weighing in at 511! My first 52 days on the program I had lost 89 pounds even without exercise just omad! One meal a day has been the most effect weight loss strategy of my life. It was not like I was depriving myself. I eat between 1500 to 3000 calories a day and eat till I was full. Friday i'm weighing again and if you don't believe my results I can take a picture of the weight on the scale. I honestly was not expecting quick weight loss at first due to the fact that my calories was to high to create that big of a deficit. I did not expect the real weight loss till 90 days in. I'm glad I made the decision to buy the scale!
