IF you come to NYC or LA (they have a shop in LA) you should visit them. They also have a cookbook. I haven't tried it yet, Plan to, but if you want to make thsi stuff at home you can.

I don't know about spagetti but I do think you should get a scale. It's completely Changed my life and the way i eat. Its great!

OR get grilled Fish, wish no sauce or butter.

mixed Green salad dressing on the side. Or Pasta with tomato sauce and only eat half of it.

Think online food shopping is great. I get what i want and only sometiems a little extra and it's normally more fruit of vegies since i don't see all the bad stuff. Great idea making a food plan for the week and then buying jut what you need. It makes life so much simpler! Keep up the good work and good luck this week.

I was told once (i'm not a dr and the person isn't either, so take it with a grain of salt) that unless your working out like a mainiac you really don't need to eat all your excersie calories. In fact i was told that you really shouldn't eat most of them. I think if you work out for 500 calories, of that you should eat…

Me too but they are so bad since they are cooked in oil and are all potato, this way you get the best of both worlds.

It ended up making like 11 or 12, but i'm not sure if you use a mesuring cup how much. We just eye balled it and did the calorie calculations ahead of time. Serving suggestion: Apple Sauce

Thanks ladies! My insurance didn't pay for the test (outside lab) my doctor is the one who told me about it. she did it on herslef and lost a bunch of weight becuase she cut out the food that was making her sick. So when i could get the moeny together i decided to do the test. I was having terrible stomach problems and my…

Yeah Send the Recipe, I'm always looking for new yummy snacks and my Hubby loves bananna and any baked good it can be put in.

We had pan seared flounder tonight, cooks in seconds. We paired it with a quick salad.

For a last min snack i have a Nature's valley honey oat bars in my drawer at work but I try to take fruit (cut watermellon, pinapple or a peach) or berries and yougart, or portioned out nuts are a good choice. The only other one i've done is baby carrots and a portion of hummus.

OMG this sounds so amazing! Can't see why she wouldn't love this.

Not sure where but you can always stop at a diner and get a salad with dressing on the side, or vinigar to put on. Or pick a chain resturant that you can look up the calories ahead of time and know what your getting. Good Luck.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I just lost my mother about a year and 1/2 ago to cancer and I know how hard it can be. I'm so impressed that you are able to take control back of your food and life so well. Good luck and I'm sure you can do it. Just let your self have the time to deal witht e emotions of your loss. Sending you…

My Pastas are all pre-cooking amounts. I find that it's enough food if put with lots of vegies. Good luck.

I've only been on here for about a week and a 1/2 and this idea of a "cheat day" freaks me out. I don't think i'm weak i just know portion and self control can be hard for em when it come to food. I have my birthday coming up and some special occations, so I just know i need to be careful. I may not stay in my calorie goal…

I just saw Cranberry pills in the Pharmacy. Next to all the Vitamins, i don't know if they work or if they are any good but that might be a way to get the same benifit without the calories or less.

I love my skullcandy earbuds! I have a really small ear and could never find earbuds taht worked until i got these. There great!

Great Idea! I've never tried Rhubarb but i jsut joined a CSA and it should be in soem of the crates. I can't wait to try this.

Your little girl is very lucky to have you in her life. I don't have children myself but I, as many of do, have a bad realtionship with food. I am an emotional eater and have been for many years, so was my mother. I'd like to suggest that not only contiue the exersise (making it fun) and healthy snacks and portion control…

I say just portion out what you want ot eat before you get to the table. Put the rest away and that way you start to teach your self to only eat whats infront of you.

Welcome!

Congradulations! Keep up the amazing work your doing. It's competely an insperation to me that I might be able to say the same in the future. Great Job!

Thanks for sharing! it looks great. Can't wait to try stuff.

Do you have a sense of the calories?

I just got married about a year and a half ago but we have been together for 7 years. I'd say the only advice i could give is to be honest with your slef and your partner and be upfront. I am lucky that my new husband is taking this weightloss journey with me but even if he wasn't I know i could be upfront and tell him…

I've never made nor do i like Kettlecorn but I love using Splenda in cooking and baking. Use the porotion it says on the package or less. I find when i use it in baking its extra sweet and has a little bit of an aftertaste. Have you tired not using the oil at all and air poping?

Thanks for the article, i know a few of those places and can aproximate baised on the size of the slice i pick up. THANKS so very helpful

i've found walking helps the cramps a lot, but the fact is i haven't gotten really bad ones in a long time. I do suggest giving yourself a little kindness and trying to go but if you can't do to much don't. Just do as much as you can and try to push just a little. Drinking water, having an advil (or any pain med) is always…
