    I couldn't manage without a good knife, a good pan, and my food scale. Oh and my coffee pot. Most of the other things in my kitchen end up as decorations to be used once in a while.

    Food scale
    I haven't bought any other new kitchen tools to help with weight loss or changing the way I eat.
    I cook every day so I already had all the cooking implements and appliances I need.

    I really like over-night oatmeal. Lots of good, healthy fiber, fresh fruit and protein. It's a great way to start my day. So, I needed some nice 16 oz. refrigerator storage containers for the ON oatmeal. The recipes for ON oatmeal show the servings in a glass canning jar but I wasn't keen on using glass because I'm clumsy. I found some sturdy, plastic containers with a screw on lid that work great. And I had to try a spiralizer because it just makes vegies look so darned good and I need to eat more vegies.

    Hmm, my top 2 things are food scale, crockpot, cast iron skillet, and chefs knife.

    That's 2, right? Hey, what can I say...I was never good at math..

    The food scale was a whole new world opening up, I use it for absolutely everything now.

    The stick blender is also essential as I only like smooth soups.

    Apart from that the cast iron skillet has always been my big love.

    George Foreman grill and containers for individual portions.

    I got a good food scale because of recommendations here, and seldom have used in the 4 years I have had it. I have been cooking for 50 years and am good at estimating and using measuring spoons & cups. I managed to reach my goal and have kept the weight off for over 2-1/2 years, so it works for me.

    Big sharp chef's knife
    Iron Skillet

    When I split up with the ex, I actually told him "I get the kids, and the iron skillets. Anything else you want you can have."

    My actual necessities list is bigger than two though:

    Big Knife
    Iron Skillets
    Pot to cook rice/soup
    Cutting board
    Serving Spoon
    Metal Spatula
    Sheet Pan for oven
    Whisk

    I think I could do 95% of what I do with just those; probably 50% with just the skillet, knife and spatula.

    My scale has been crucial for losing the last 11 vanity pounds..

    Other than that, my nutra ninja, my kettle and my water filter are most used/loved!
