  • Hello!! I just got back from an 8 day cruise (11 day vacation), and I had posted the same thing a few months ago. I had the same advice from everyone...it's vacation!! I did do a few things differently, from the past. I only snacked once or twice, other than that, had meals at 2-3 times a day. I drank a TON of water. The…
  • HAHA!! When I think of other words that could be inserted in that sentence, I see the google hesitation!!
  • This sounds pretty hardcore....but I don't buy anything that's super calorie dense (ie chips, chocolate, ice cream, etc)...because I know that if I have it in the house, I will find a reason to eat it.

  • My coworkers can get like that....but I am a bit of a spitfire. I have watched endless documentaries, read so many books, and researched so much that I think that I am pretty well versed at all the 'myths' they want to throw at me. That saddled with sarcasm, they don't often try to tell me much of anything anymore. Time to…
  • I am not sure if you have the grams listed in the potato....but I know I used to log a 'medium' potato and it would be 110-ish calories....and then I bought a food scale. My potatoes ended up being around 170g and it was actually 329 calories!! So I have learned to pretty much weigh everything and not do a generic track of…
