www.allrecipes.com has a awesome Spicy Oven Fried Chicken recipe among others.Only 394 for a serving. One serving with a cup or two of veggies would be good. Always about portion control. Here is the link: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Spicy-Oven-Fried-Chicken/Detail.aspx

My pet peeve is similiar. I hate looking at the local ads such as Rite Aid and see that all the good discounts go by if you use a sing check or a mail in rebate. Irks me!

Crock pot is the cheapest and easiest cooking appliance you can buy. And you cna make almost anything in one. And it's a lot cheaper than a grill. Walmart has them for around 20.

This site has a recipe for the Kraft Light Italian dressing pasta salad. Very yummy!

Here is a great recipe for Pasta Cream Cheese: http://www.bhg.com/recipe/sauces/pesto-cream-cheese-spread/ You could stir it in the noodles while they are hot. A small serving with a grilled chicken burger would be good. I usually spread a tbsp of it on my grilled chicken burger with a roma tomato, lettuce, toasted light…

Since I'm starting the Shred exercise program today then I'm gonna measure everything and then measure again in a week or two. If I still don't notice then I'll wait 2 more weeks. But I'm hoping I'll notice something within a week or two. I never exercise so I'm almost certain I'll notice something when I measure again.…

Green Giant makes awesome tasting lil boxes of veggies. They make one especially that has black beans, carrots, sugar snap peas in butter sauce and it comes in a bag packaged in a lil box. Very yummy! So you just have to pop the bag in the microwave and you're set. Very good. They also have the steamer bags and the meal…

I just love the simple taste of V8. And they have the drinks that have veggies and fruit in it but it tastes like a fruit drink.

Thanks! I kinda wished Jillian explained more of that or had something set up to make it easier to know. Now I'm just wondering how I enter it in my exercise diary. I tried to look it up in the database but nothing came up.

Will be joining ya tomorrow! :D

Thanks for the recipes! :)

When I want pizza then I order pesto without any meat. Just a simple pesto veggie pizza. It's very yummy.

Wow, good job. You have def come a long ways. I hope things are fine now for you. And yes, life is or can be grand with the right choices. :)

Yes it does make a difference. All just by changing my eating habits. Now I'm starting my exercise program tomorrow. Very, very cool!

WTG....Good job! Big inspiration for me and the others here as well.

I ate out today and the menu had no salads but I had a chicken burger with sweet potatoe fries and a half bowl of icecream instead of the whole bowl of icecream. It's ok to eat out. It's all about the choices you make and setting a limit. If you are stuck like I was then choose things like chicken, fish instead of…

Just checked Walmart.com and it's available there but not in the stores so I'll have to order online. I'll be safe and order from Walmart rather than Amazon and Walmart ships pretty fast. And you can't beat .97 shipping.

Yes, you are right. I'll have to check and see if Walmart has it. Target is 1 1/2 hrs away and I won't be going up that way till about another couple weeks. So I'll have to check to see if it's at Walmart when I go Frid. Thanks!

Oh wow. Thanks for posting this. I had never seen it before and just checked it out. I know what I'm gonna purchase early next week. I found it on Amazon for around $9. It starts ya off on a old school type of level workout and builds up. Just what I need! Thanks guys!

What would ya'll recommend for a number of eggs to cook for breakfast if I were to switch to eating just egg whites. There isn't much egg using just the whites so that's why I'm asking. TY :)

What do ya'll recommend as the best sandwhich from Subway? Used to be the whole foot for me but from now on it will be the 6 inch on the wheat bread or one of their sandwhiches.

I am from KY but I have lived in Maine for 8 yrs. My bf is from Maine here and his brothers are lobstermen and he builds lobster traps himself. And you're right-it's hard to beat lobster right off the boat. But I love my good home southern food too. My bf keeps saying we outta open a Northern/Southern restaurant. lol

Thanks! My biggest problem is exercise and eating really late and snacking throught the night. I def am getting hungry. I just figured pesto was the healthiest and I love it. I looked it up on the food diary and nutrition was for around 2 hundred and something for one slice. So I def don't think a small would hurt me since…

I drink any skim milk. I mostly buy Hood or Hannaford brand.
