I only allow myself one cheat day a month and I already had mine as my hubby surprised me with concert tickets and dinner. Since I *never* get time away from the kids, I decided to live it up while I could. Xmas will be tricky. I already have my lovely Mother breathing down my neck with the, "It's only one day a year!…

From what you have written, it sounds as though your mother doesn't have the healthiest perspective on weight issues. Take what she says with a grain of salt.

If you have a blender, you can make some really tasty smoothies that are packed with good things while they taste like a dessert. Sometimes I'll have a protein bar. Luna bars and the Fiber One peanut butter bars are my favorites. I love having the Dannon greek yogurt cups with a generous dollop of fat free cool whip. It's…

If you are looking to make serious lifestyle changes that you plan on doing for the long haul, you may as well do everything as accurately as possible. It's nearly impossible to get accurate calorie information from eyeballing food, especially when first starting out, and pre-packaged foods aren't always on target about…

Unless you are actually starving, you are not in 'starvation mode' nor does starvation mode keep people from losing weight.
