    Any chicken or vegetarian meal ideas you want to share? I have been grilling the heck out of it and need some new ideas. Thanks!

    Black bean and spinach enchiladas... I've made these by the pan and taken to work...I usually get handed back a very clean, scrubbed pan. Lol

    Hi, I just turned 42, and have 50 lbs to lose. I had great success on here a few years back, and lost over 50 lbs. Now I've gained back almost all of it, and realize it's time for a real change! I exercise a pretty good amount, so I feel like I should be shedding lbs but I have not been logging to go along with it. Anyway, I would love some friends to help keep one another motivated and on track. Please add me if you'd like!

    I’m 41. I’ve been tracking since Sept and I’ve lost 21. I have maybe 10, 15 more to go. After I lose 6 more lbs I’m taking it 5 at a time. I don’t want to lose my girly curves if I can help it.

    @Renonelarock Hi! Just wondering what your miracle noodles are you mentioned in your post? My husband introduced our house to some yam noodles that are 0 carbs and 0 calories but for some reason they smell really fishy despite having absolutely no fish product in them and I don't care for the texture. Looking for a lower cal alternative to pasta.

    @Renonelarock Oops. Please disregard. After searching online I've learnt that this is a brand name and the same type of noodle we have just a different brand. One amazon review mentions the fish smell and texture too. Maybe I just have to get used to it. ;)

    I rinsed them a bunch! And then put them in a sauté pan with all the ingredients.... I’ve read online there’s a way to get them more “pasta like” and dense but I still need to work on
    that ;)

    46 here. I'm trying to lose 30 more pounds (I've already lost 20). The holidays and cold weather really did a number on me, and I'm trying to get back in the game this Spring!

    Hi I'm Tracey 41 and I'm back after almost 2 years of not logging and up 12 pounds. Most of my friend list is inactive. Glad I found this forum.

    Hi Tracey! Did you continue exercising during that time? I didn't log for about a year and a half and while I added weight, about half of it was muscle. So you may not have that much to drop.
