Great job!

Apple slices or warm apple pie with sharp cheddar cheese......yum!

Food scale is essential. Amazon has a large selection to pick from.

I do mine weekly, I also use an Excel spreadsheet.

cathipa Great advice! Weighing and measuring your food accurately is super important.

Once a week, Monday morning, more often and the normal fluctuations will drive me crazy.

Great job!

Should be a good game. Patriots all the way!!

Great job!

Atlanta will give them a good game, but the Patriots will come out on top!

Quitting smoking is not easy! I smoked heavily for many years and attempted to quit many times. Tried the patches, gum, hypnosis and group therapy (gum and the patches several times each.) What finally worked for me was Chantix, I've been smoke free for over four years now. It does require a doctor's prescription and it's…

Lamb, even the odor of it cooking turns me off. All innards....liver, kidneys, etc. Licorice. Everything else I'll at least try.

Really great!!

I sure did! That wasn't my intent at all, I just did a very bad job at quoting... ;)

I totally agree! The parents control or at least should control what the child eats.

I've always felt like when they're that young, the parent almost doesn't even need to say anything to the child. They're the ones that are responsible for what he's eating so if anyone should be spoken to (albeit not in a horrible way like this Santa decided), it should be his parents. They're the ones who could make a…

Walking that much on a regular basis will certainly go a long way to improving your overall fitness.

Xanthan gum works great.

A digital food scale will give you a MUCH clearer indication of what you are eating. Weighing the food after it is cooked tells you the actual amount of food you're putting into your body. There is a huge difference (percentage wise) between raw and cooked ground beef. The nutritional info on the back of most bacon…

Chicken breasts are relatively inexpensive compared to other protein sources. No carbs, low fat and reasonably low calorie ( especially if the skin is removed AFTER cooking).

Use DRY weight when measuring the caloric content of pasta. The final cooked weight of two ounces of dry pasta is meaningless, the additional weight is only water. Most pasta averages about 100-110 calories per ounce. If cooking say a full pound of pasta for four people, a scale can be used to divide the cooked pasta into…

Keep accurate track of what you eat, it pays to weigh or measure everything! Invest in an accurate digital scale for weighing your portions.

Once a week, it's more indicative of your true progress. Daily weighing can ruin your whole day ;)

Those channels will be back soon. The money is way too big for Viacom and DirecTV not to resolve it quickly.

I bought this one at Amazon almost two years ago. It gets daily use and seems to be quite accurate. EatSmart Precision Pro - Multifunction Digital Kitchen Scale w/ Extra Large LCD and 11 Lb. Capacity

Cooked! It's the weight that you are actually putting into your body that counts, raw or uncooked weight is meaningless! It's very important to accurately weigh the quantity that you are consuming and don't use the weight stated on the package.

I like Kraft Zesty Italian, the regular, not the light. I am careful about measuring the amout that I use.

I don't add tea, hot sauce, spices and mustard. All veggies and condiments such as ketchup, etc. I do add.

The smell of lamb cooking. I dislike the taste of lamb and the odor of it cooking just reinforces that dislike ;);)
