When cooked put into pan on stove & cover with 1 tin of low-fat mushroom soup & 1/2 can of water & simmer until warmed throughly. Remove pork chops & pour soup mixture into gravy…

Your goal is to stay under 1490 calories to lose 2 lbs a week. If you decide to eat the calories added by exercise you may be able to eat some of them without gaining, but some of us can not eat all of the gained exercise calories & continue to lose. It is definitely not neccessary to eat your added calories from exercise…

keurig, toaster, cordless kettle, electric can opener; not much space for more than that. I use my crock pot a lot but it, my bread machine, & food processor are in another cupboard when not in use.

Dr Oz just adressed this problem of hair loss. He suggested eating more zinc rich foods in your diet. You can google what they are. Or take a supplement for zinc. Hope that helps!

Hi ladies: I had to change the name of the group when I opened it on the "Groups" heading as it would not take this topic name. I changed it to " Gals 55+ & 75lbs+ to lose" You will find it under the Message Board heading "Groups" Just scroll down to almost the bottom of the Message Board. I have added all your names to…

Well I am getting mixed messages from some of you ladies as to putting this group under groups heading!!!!!!!!! It is begining to depress me, sorry but I started this thread under motivation & support to see if I would get ladies who were similar age & weight loss goals, so we could be supportive & encouraging to each…

Kathy: I tried another group for support before I started this one & there were so many people on it that it took hours to read all the comments for 1 day! And to comment on there posts was too overwhelming for me. This is why I wanted to limit the size of this one! We have a bunch of ladies who are faithful in posting,…

Lori: Sounds like you are doing well at food prep ahead to keep eating healthy; good for you! I jot down a few things I want to say to each of the ladies who post as I read them, so when I go to reply I have it hand written to type. I too would never remember what I read & want to reply back. Not only is the body going, so…

Well made it back home around 4pm & had to unload my whole car full of groceries, clothing, suitcase, etc. I was so pooped by the time I brought everything into the house & put it all away. After shopping for 2hrs & then driving for 3 hours. Oh well at least I had a safe journey home again. Brought a rotisserie chicken…

Hi ladies, some of my comments may seem a bit hard on some of the new people who are commenting & wanting to join this group. But my idea when I started this, was to get a group of ladies who are in a similar age group & who had lots to lose , so we could understand the medical issues & inability to exercise extensively,…

Merrygrannie: Also when you are breaking down a meal like meatloaf to post don't forget to save it under Quick tools , then remember meal. As it will put it into your heading my meals in case you make it again , so you just have to click on that meal & it will post it to your food journal for that day!

Debbie7373: Welcome thanks for sharing! LauraJay: I too love ice in my water. Those water flavour aditives cause me pain as it irritates my irritable colon. Good for some people though. So I stick to lemon & orange wedges or just like it plan most of the time. Sometimes I put orange or cranberry juice just a splash into it…

I have had a real struggle with food & exercise this weekend, other than bowling friday night!!! I started to obsess over food after I posted tonight & started to eat when I most definitely should not of. I am scared to get on the scale tomorrow. All I can do is hope for a better day tomorrow & a successful week ahead!…

Ann: Isn't it funny how we all know how to eat healthier & yet make such wrong choices! then feel guilty after we consume it!! Hope you will watch the sodium as we don't want you to have a BP spike. That would not be good. I tend to love salty things too & am on BP pills, 2 different kinds & a water pill every day. Premade…
