My husband and I love alfredo sauce. I have never tried to find a lower calorie version, we just focus on fitting it into our calorie allowance and plan ahead. We also use it with lower calorie foods and make the portions of sauce we use smaller. One of our favorite meals is alfredo spaghetti squash with sauteed shrimp and…

I thought dating was the weeding out part...getting to know them, finding shared interests, seeing if you have chemistry...If not, thanks for playing, move on. I didn't even have credit when I met my husband...I never had a credit card, no loans, nothing...and neither did he. If either of us had asked for a credit score we…

I log most of my food for the day in the morning and the night before. I also work my calories and consumption around when I know I will be most hungry/snacky...if I know I need a snack at night, then I make that a priority in my logging/day and make my lunch or morning snack smaller. That's the great thing about IIFYM. If…

I have a long term goal, but I also have mini goals that I assigned rewards to when I hit them. It helps me keep motivated and it reminds me that my long term goal is going to take time, and that smaller goals are something I can look toward shorter term. Losing 90 lbs is going to take a long time and I don't want to get…

My husband and I try and go on dates that aren't food centered. So we will go for hikes, putt putt golfing, bowling, etc. We are only allowed 2 restaurant dates a month, and usually we try and do only one...these are usually our cheat meals. If we want to do a date night where we are eating dinner we will look up a new…

This is my go-to afternoon snack with a half serving of Nature Valley Protein Granola...although I have been told it's fake greek yogurt lol...which it probably is because Light & Fit is the only kind of greek yogurt I like.

In all fairness you would also have to pry wine out of my cold, dead hands...and honestly even then I would probably still fight you somehow...sooooooo lol

I am a Splenda user...you would literally have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands. I had a coworker tell me how bad it is for me and even send me an article about how it causes cancer...I still use it, and love it.

I love love love to make a really meaty spaghetti sauce (sweet sauce) and put it over a bunch of sauteed mushrooms....sooo good and it kicks my pasta cravings.

@steph81881 Stunning mother, adorable daughter...you obviously adore each other! @DasItMan91 you look very sharp in a suit!

Coming from someone who has done the very low calorie with lots of workout thing...I can tell you this not a sustainable way to go. I lost a lot of weight, sure...BUT I started getting such bad headaches that it would blur my vision in the right eye, I started feeling sick and nauseous all the time, I was tired and wanted…

I put them all in the crock pot...they cook in the juices with whatever spice you put in there (I LOVE adding a packet of pesto mix) and get super tender...then I shred it and put it with rice and steamed veggies for the week.

I found these protein snack packs at Walmart...they have ham or turkey, mild cheddar, and something sweet (dried berries, dark chocolate)...all less than 200 calories and they have decent macros. There are a lot of different brands for them!

I have cut back and limited eating out quite a bit. My husband and I eat out for dinner/date night twice a week, the other date nights we do something active/outdoorsy or cook something new! For lunch I try to pack something every morning...last Friday I failed at that and had a happy meal, then we had a 4 hour drive after…

You all can add me! I would love more motivated friends!

Truly incredible and inspiring!

Very sharp dresser! You look great!

We have left our dogs in their kennels that long before, but we don't do it often if we can help it. Really other than during the night they are in their kennels as little as possible. We are not super disciplined dog owners...we let them eat whenever they want, there is always food in their bowl. Do you have a basement or…

It absolutely exists...but it is both perfect & imperfect, and it never lasts without work. In order for love to be real you can't just love what is beautiful about someone/something, you have to love what is ugly too. I love my husband with all of my heart...and it's not just the great things about him/us, there are…

In great shape

Great eyes

Lovely!

You are all inspiring the heck out of me! Amazing!

This is a hard subject for anyone. After my husband and I got married we moved half way across the country from all of our friends and family...my husband was a Marine and it was his next duty station. About half the time we lived there he was gone...training, overseas, places I couldn't know about. I had a hard time…

Is this question for realsies?

No...everyone says that you have to have fewer calories in than calories out...that is the only thing that has to do with weight loss. The food you eat has more to do with how it makes you feel and health. Is it "healthier" to eat baby carrots than french fries, yeah probably, but as long as you stay at or under calories…

I have been just about every size in the book. In high school I had an eating disorder and was down to 100 lbs and a size 2...I felt like a whale still, when in reality I was so so thin. Now, being about twice that weight I am actually breaching on beluga status (whale pun, high five). I am currently working on getting…
