  • I let my boys sleep in in the morning so I have my blender set up in my garage so the noise doesn't wake them up. I have a little counter for it and my crock pot (so it doesn't smell up the whole house all day when I'm using it) all pluged in so all I have to do is bring out the full canister blend it up and go. Otherwise…

  • For lunch today I had one of those frozen pasta dishes but I microwaved it over a bowl of zuccini noodles and added 3 ounces of shredded chicken. It was super filling and fast, just what I needed for about 400 calories. There are tons of flavors of those frozen dishes so you could easily have variety and they are easy to…

  • I like to make an iced tea concentrate too. I like to mix my tea bags so I'll do 4 bags of black tea and 2 bags mint tea to make my own blend.

  • I really like something I saw on instagram today. Take a small freezer meal that has a sauce and bulk it up with zuccini noodles or other steamed veggies. Not an everyday option but I loved the idea for when I don't have a lot of time. I find those meals always have lots of sauce anyway.

  • Wow, there is really a lot of good advise here. One thing I have noticed so far that has helped me a lot is choosing the right nutrition to keep me full. I think it is different for everyone but for me I've seen that when I have a breakfast that is mostly carbs like oatmeal I am hungry soon after and it sets me up for…

  • I put leftover rice in a steamer basket in a pot with a bit of water and steam it till it is heated up. Becomes nice and fluffy just like I made it freas. Also you can freeze leftover rice.

  • I set my blender up on a little station in my garage so it's not so loud in the am. I just fill the container and take it out there to blend.

  • I really like coleslaw and keep a bag of the cabbage in the fridge. Now I use it to bulk up pretty much anything. Added it to my family pasta dinner so I can have a smaller portion of the pasta but still have a big full bowl. I really like the crunch it adds.

  • I'm in a similar situation with a 2 and 4 year old and 11 year old. I've just started eating healthier but it's going good so far. I've found I really have to stop myself and take the time to think about what I'm eating and not wait till I'm ravenous and stressed and eat everything in sight. My little one will eat almost…
