That's funny you posted this .. I was about to try my first green smoothie today as well. kale, oats, frozen blueberries, milk. I haven't mixed it up yet.. but will shortly.

Interesting! i never though of combining the two.. I'll have to try it. I love my whey choc. powder and love fage 0% (plain). i'll have to try it tomorrow. quick workout .. 1/2 hour I'm not hungry.. but on gym days (3x week).. I burn 700 or more.. I have 100% whey powder, 1 scoop w/water, banana (small one), and sometimes…

I have been adding Munster Cheese to it, and I can't stop eating it. I love it! and will make it again very soon!

um. YUM! I may have to play around w/the ingr. to get them a bit lower in calories. Great idea.. i'm going to try them in the morning! (since i'll be home w/a sick little girl all day!)

Since your main dishes are not the healthiest, make the best of your sides. mixed veggies and salads are great. but cheesy toast w/a pasta dish.. not the best idea for weight loss. mashed potatoes - not so great either. Baked potato (or baked sweet potato) with skin is a better option. Roasted veggies (cauliflower is my…

Thanks for the challenge. 36 years old, wife and mom of 2 kids. I work part time as a teacher's aid at a preschool. Since my youngest (5) is finally in school full time, I have devoted this time to ME! I am about 5'0 - 5'1 - 5'2 - depending on the time of day I get measured and by who.. (this is a new discovery at the…

Well if you eat the whole box, that is about 1200 calories. ok 1260 to be exact. The whole box is 7 servings. So either lay the box out on the table and divide it evenly, seven ways.. so you can get an idea of how much one serving is.. or make the whole box, w/your recipe and divide your recipe into 7....I'm thinking 2 oz…

ok.. I'm in too! I've had the dvd for a long time, and have never gotten past level 1. I am always so sore. I can max out the arc trainer, and be find the next day, I can sweat my @ss off in spinning and be fine the next day.. but after a jillian work out.. I feel so weak and so useless the next day. She really knows how…

thanks! mine is creamy.. but i'll double check the bar code.

my bag says 3/4 cup water to 1/4 cup oats. I cook it on low for about 7 mins, then add milk, because it's not done yet, and the water is all absorbed. (maybe i'll try a full cup of water next time). It is unlike any other oatmeal I have EVER had.. and it is so friggin' good! I add skim milk, cinnamon and a small sprinkle…

horrible bosses and mr. popper's penguins.. both were really funny!

We all have such similar stats! 5'1 here. 155 was my highest ever. 144 seems to be my comfort zone. Started logging at the end of august at 144, now down to 133. .. almost 37 years old. Feel free to add me .. please.. I could use all the support I can get from fellow shorties!

Wow.. Thanks! great info.

great motivation. thanks for posting.

great post.. still smiling as I think of all the people I see at the gym on a weekly basis just like this!!

.. close, but not that close. perry county pa - 20 min west of harrisburg.

my dog was looking at me like what r u doing? Day two just complete. max 7.5 yes.. 1/2 I almost made it 8. Day one was Sat and I did make it to 8 for max. oh well. I'll keep trying!

day one complete... finished strong with 8. that wasn't so bad.. i'm looking forward to this. Someone keep me accountable... Sunday will be day 2.

skinnytaste website had some home made chicken nuggets .. white chicken breast w/olive oil and panko and bread crumbs. it didn't come out as crunch as I thought. and a pack of trail mix.

ok, i'm in.. just read about it !

uggg. ok, I can do 7 in a row .. how does the this 100 push up challenge work?

Honeycrisps!!! that has been my choice lately too.. can't get enough of them!!

I've been on the same roller coaster for 3 years. Hoping to break the cycle this time! Feel free to add me, I wish you the best of luck!

Good luck mom of 4.. you can do it!

Welcome and good luck to you!!

That is such a great success! You are determined! Keep up the good work, and thanks so much for the inspiration. Cute dimples by the way!

is it your TOM? That really screwed up my week ....

canned tomatoes w/a tablespoon of tomato paste, could make a nice little sauce. Simmer for 10 mins or so. Add onion, garlic, or seasoning as desired. but yes.. that would work.

my diary is open, feel free to add me. Good luck to you and your wife. She is so lucky to have you supporting her. Mine was chowing down on a bag of chips the other night!@ :-(

ok.. here goes. cook 1 onion in olive oil. Then, add 1 box veg stock (I used wolfgang puck) and about 1/2 box of water. Add 2 head cauliflower (cut up) one potato (w/skin on). Cook until veggies are soft. Puree in blender (in batches) until smooth. so easy and so filling and sooo good. If you have extra calories and sodium…
