bagels and cream cheese I just:heart: them -- of course I'm eating a LOT less than i did before!

girl, you're making me want a drink right now!!!!

It's okay now and then and I would only drink one, two at the most... (and I don't mean 2 big old martinis -- I mean two 3.5 oz glasses of red wine or 2 lite beers, or 2 vodka and soda waters) I miss the drinking too. What I wouldn't do for a big stiff dirty martini right about now.... *sigh* Maybe i'll budget one of those…

what about getting it without cheese? Or getting it and wrapping 1/2 of it up and eating the other half with a salad?

are you eating your exercise calories? I agree with what others have posted in that you might not be eating enough calories. Try at least eating your exercise calories every other day and see how it goes. best of luck

How many calories are you eating? If not enough your body could go into "starvation" mode and you won't lose -- ? Or is it your time of the month perhaps and you're retaining?

How many calories are you eating a day? If you are eating too little your body will go into starvation mode and you won't lose anything.. try increasing your calories by about 500 and go from there.

I suggest the elliptical machine or perhaps a stationary bike... be safe and good luck!

I think the more water you drink, the less you retain (or at least it is like that for me?) also stay away from salt during that time.. it doesn't help at all..

I have a 32oz Nalgene bottle that I fill up in the AM and then I sip it until lunch, drink it at lunch, and then by about 2:00 it's gone and I refill it again. I get about 1/2 way through before I have to go home. So I drink about 48oz while at work... then at dinner I drink a 16oz pint glass of water with dinner which =…

They sound delish! Is the granulated splenda the same as "splenda for baking" ?

Well sub out boneless chicken tenders for the steak first off., then dredge them in flour, then egg wash, then ground up cornflakes Put them on a baking sheet and bake at 375 until done (25-30 minutes or so) . Turn over half way through baking. I'm sure this is not exactly what you were thinking of but crunchy chicken…

What brand are the protein shakes? How do they taste? Thanks

It's fine -- I actually went into my settings and increased my protein percentage... I think I'm at 20% fat, 30% protein, and 50% carbs

Try the EAS myoplex light ...

1 shot of liquor (i.e. vodka/gin/whiskey) = 1 3.5 ounce glass of wine = 1 12oz beer (approximately) When trying to limit alcohol consumption try to: - drink 1 or 2 glasses of water in between each drink - drink slowly - avoid high calorie mixers (margarita mix, coke, sprite) - avoid frozen drinks Suggestions: Vodka and…

EAS myoplex light (chocolate) has 180 calories, 2g fat, 1 sugar, 3 fiber, and 25 proteins. Add to it some skim milk and you'd get even more protein with little fat and carbs.

Beef tenderloin probably still has too much fat -- plus it's more saturated fats... I think the OP said she needs high calorie/high protein/ low fat so that basically rules out beef I would think?

Extra chicken breast, boiled egg whites, egg white omelette with spinach, salsa and chicken... Or protein shakes with very low sugar ?

Some bagels can be upwards of 450 calories!! I love them . so I have been eating Kraft Bagel-fuls -- they are 200 calories each (including the cream cheese) and they satisfy the 'bagel craving'
