  • If you don't have a crockpot, invest in one. It will help you tremendously. Chicken for shredded chicken tacos, pork roast, chuck roast, soups, etc.

    I just bougt a stone ware microwave cookerLOL,as seen on tv,but it really works.
    Maybe it would encourage you to cook more often. I get bored with the same stuff. Also, I buy frozen cooked,deviened and peeled shrimp, about $3.00 a serving.Quick and easy,add to hot broth, stir in a warme Green giant vegatable for on Broccoli and rice,YUM!!

    funt80, recipes will not help if you are consuming quantities of junk food.
    Log everything you eat for a week.
    See what you can change.

    i don't eat junk food. I eat whole food. Just i have implosive bad habit. When i work in kitchen. What i plan to eat is great. What kills is being surrendered by food that i should not eat and when i am not at work i don't eat. Some of it i dont even like. But bc it there some how end up in my mouth.

    I work out every day and know what to eat just i am a chef it hard to make food healthy when you think of more with what i can make taste great. and my impolse eating kills my diet and my goal

    Actually what is causing any weight gain/maintenance issues is eating at a caloric surplus.

    You can eat whatever you'd like as long as it's within your caloric deficit for fat loss. 14lbs lost so far eating cookies, chocolate, popcorn, pizza, cupcakes, etc.

    You do not need recipes to lose weight. Buy a rotisserie chicken, bake two or three potatoes, and cook some frozen vegetables in the microwave. You will have enough for three meals.

    Allrecipes.com has nutrition info for all their recipes. Might need to scroll down to find that info.
