I lost site of MY goals. After being laid off for 6 months now & gaining instead of shedding, I'm back!
I'm asking humbly for much encouragement & motivation.
Looking for easy dinner meals, so I'm not cooking 2 separate meals every day.

I found lots of new recipes on this thread. It's Easy Crock Pot recipes. There's virtually no cooking involved...just dump it in and forget about it. I need a little of that in my life.

At my house we just finished off the White Chicken Chili & it was fabulous. My skinny husband loved it.

I hope you keep coming around and please post when you're feeling discouraged or feel like you're about to fall off the wagon. It has helped me tremendously.

You can do it!

One of my favorite dinners is quinoa salad. You cook quinoa which only takes 15 minutes. You can cook up a bunch and keep out enough for a couple-few days of dinner and freeze the rest in the same portion sized baggies. Then you can thaw and use next time with no cooking. Take diced red bell peppers, corn cut from the cob and cilantro and saute those in a skillet then add to quinoa. Sprinkle with freshly squeezed orange juice. Salt and pepper to taste. Refirgerate for a couple of hours. Really simple, keeps for a few days in the fridge. Add a green salad and it's a great meal.

Or, if you like smoothies, you can add a little water and enough spinach to fill the blender. Puree the spinach and add your fruit of choice and blend again. My favorite fruit with it is mango and pineapple. I have that most nights.
