in Introduce Yourself
....I started this on Tuesday. So far it's not horrific but I sure do miss my old friends - cake and crisps! I have never wanted to sort myself out more than I do at this moment so I feel like I'm maybe in the right place for a change! Any tips from vegetarians would be welcome as would any really good, healthy vegetarian recipes that don't include tofu :)

I have a long way to go but I saw the coolest comment the other day. "No way can I lose 70lb so I'l just lose 5lb....14 times".

When I've sorted this I'm climbing Kilimanjaro.....how hard can THAT be!?

:)

    Welcome! I just started here yesterday, as well. I just wanted to share one of my favorite recipes (although I make it with chicken you don't have to).

    I use spaghetti squash as a substitute for spaghetti in an alfredo dish that's absolutely delicious. Sometimes I'll even add marinara sauce when I'm really craving pasta.

    Cut one spaghetti squash in half and wrap in plastic wrap. Steam in microwave until tender. Use a fork to break apart in a bowl and add one container of Laughing Cow garlic cheese and mix well. Once that's mixed add in one cup of steamed broccoli. You can add other veggies, extra basil - anything you like.

    Good luck! You can do this...

    Forget Atkins. You can have your cake. Just fit it into your calories.

    Thanks guys - I will definitely try that recipe! Cake would be great but I'm going for a bit of a detox first. Showing the cake that I control it!!!

    Hi, I am new too. Detox is a good idea. I took some anti parasite medicine here in Mexico and it made me feel better. Good luck with your efforts!
