I always have a good supply of frozen veggies (mostly broccolli) in the steamable bags. I also always have on hand turkey burgers and salmon burgers. You can cook a salmon burger quickly and eat with a bag of steamed veggies for a filling and relativley low calorie dinner.

I havent noticed a weight difference, all I know is I cant buy it because it is so good I end up eating the whole damn bag! Serioulsy- if it is in the house, I will eat it untill it is gone. Dangerous, that one!

I got engaged November 6th of this year and our wedding is on January 4th. I bought a dress 4 days after our engagement and I am going for my final fitting in 2 days. FInd a good seamstress and make sure you have enough for alterations in your budget. THe lalerations on my dress cost as much at the dress itself. ( the…

boil them and put a bunch of salt in the water (like2 tablespoons). THis should help them peel easier. Also, if possible, peel them under running water. The stream of water gets inbetween the shell and the membrane and makes peeling a breeze.

Not quite fried zucchinni, but very very good. Trey Grilled zucchini instead. slice the zucchini into either thick verticle slices or horozontally into round discs. They should be about 3/4 inch thick. spray with Pam on both sides, shake on garlic powder, black pepper, and saalt to taste. grill on hot grill fro about 4…

PP said, "Hahaha!!! Love it! Where I work, apparently there was one woman (she doesn't work there now, gee, I wonder why?) who thought everything in the fridge was free game for her taking. About once a month one of the warehouse workers would put on an awesome BBQ with chicken and burgers ... one time she took half the…

I tried them and cooked them just how you described (dry fry). I added some siracha, soy, and garlic. The flavor was fine, but I could NOT get past the texture. It felt like I was chewing rubber bands. I keppt chewing to see if things changed, but it only made it feel like I was chewing smaller rubber bands. I could hear…

We have a cupcake truck too! The worst one is the Chicken N Waffles truck. *kitten*!

1. My pants all look like clown pants. 2. 18 minutes on an elliptical (and increasing quickly) 3. My feet and knees don't hurt as much as they did. 4. For the first time in my driving life, I weigh less than my license says. 5. Playing on the floor with my daughter and not worrying about how I am going to get up.

home made split pea soup (325 cal), whole wheat bun (160) butter(100) Yum!

so awesome!. My goal for the fall ( i just started this 3 months ago) is to do my first 5k- WALKING! I cant even imagine running one and at 9>33 per mile at that! You Rock!

If you like crisp apples, one I havent seen mentioned is a Cameo apple. They are very crisp and juicy and more sweet than tart. My fave behind a Honeycrisp, Braeburns are really crunchy too- more tart than sweet. I like Pink Lady's, but they tend to bruise very easily. Mutsu or Crispin are a crisp green/yellow apple that…

I have well over 150 pounds to loose. I've lost 40 so far and am plugging along. Feel free to add me ad a friend.

Sailor Jerry's Spiced Rum and Coke Zero. 69 cals per shot of 94 proof rum!

You have done a fantastic job- I still cant believe how much you have lost so quickly! Love ya babe!

A cup of water is 8 fluid ounces. You can find that type of information readily online.

Thanks for the advice. I'm hoping the new excercise routine is to blame and will wait it out while continuing to excercise. I did not know about muscles retaining water after exercise I'm new to this whole fitness thing. I've spent most of my life being overweight and not caring. Finally I have arrived at the point where I…

@ansonrinsmit- yes 34 lbs in 2.5 months. I dont think that is too bad. I started out very heavy and I have about 200 pounds to lose. @vweavers- MFP had me at 1980 callories when I first started. After i lost 25 pounds , mfp recalculated me to 1770 calories which is where I am at today. The fitbit accounts for all your…

Yes- Fitbit, when synched to MFP- will tell MFP how much excersize you have done and MFP will adjust your calorie goal for the day automatically. I try not to eat back those calories either- I just look at them as a cushion, just in case i go a little over. I have only had my fitbit for 3 days and I love it! It is the only…

Mrs. Dash Table blend and garlic powder- I put that on EVERYTHING!

You are neither a pig, nor a fatty- you just had a little slip up. Now, RIGHT NOW- before it spirals into a week long binge, Pick yourself up and start at the beginning. You have not even ruined the whole day, you still have dinner to go. Eat a sensible and healthy dinner and get back to it. We are only human, and we all…

I dont really like the Jennie-o brand. Bubba Burgers makes a turkey burger that is great. A little cajun seasoning, grill 4 minutes per side, served on a whole wheat bun withhoney mustard, pickles and barbeque sauce. Make some homemade sweet potatoe fries to go with it and Viola! A great meal.

I too have alot of weight to loose (125) I would like to be your friend so we all can help support each other . I'm a 44 year old mother of 1.

PB&J on Caramel Corn flavored rice cakes- DEEEE-LISH! My daughter is Gluten intloerant and gluten free bread is totally gross so I send her to scholl with PB&J on rice cakes and she (and I ) loves them.

Not a stay at home mom, but I am a Mom trying to loose over 100 pounds. Feel free to add me as a friend.

You can add me- I have probably close to 200 to lose. I'd likesome more friends for support.

If you weight 287 you should probably be eating more than 1200 per day. Is that the goal MFP calculated for you or si you put it inmannually?

Cinnamon is used to stabilize/lower blood sugar so no wonder it helps you with your sweet tooth. You can get capsules of cinnamon in th vitamin section if you want to add more to your diet. Be careful though, you have to take the capsules with ALOT of water. If you dont, sometimes thay just hang around in you upper…
