Just a little spice, either cinnamon or cardamom is my fave. I ake with half milk half water, and pinch f salt. Sometimes I add a few tablespoons of natural no sugar added applesauce. I've been considering savory oatmeal too, as a side with dinner (like instead of rice, etc).

Not about the dress but other money saving tips: If you get married at right time of year, you need minimal decorations. A couple from our church got married this past Saturday, and the Christmas decor was still up. Beautiful, awesome pics and they didn't buy a thing. Same goes for Easter time if you get married in church.…

Sweet potatoes are great for you. There are lots of veggies that are high(ish) in arbs but also vitamins and other healthy stuff. Some of hose are winter squash, carrots, parsnips, peas. Another way I end up getting a lot of my carbs these days is through beans and lentils. They have lots of fiber but other carbs also..but…

eggwhite flatbreads are good, and the egg and cheese on english muffin isn't all that much worse (about the same calories I think but maybe a little more fat a little less protein). I think egg and ham on english muffin (but not cheese too) might be about the same. they have nutrition info on line (and you can customize…

agree with chicken shawarma (or shish tawook...another grilled chicken). Tabbouleh salad is also good (cracked wheat with tomato, parsley, garlic, sometimes cucumber in a lemon and olive oil dressing). Hummus can be a little fatty, I think Foul is a little less oily but also doesn't taste as good (both bean-based…

big fan of soup here, too. I use it as a way to clean out my fridge, lol. whatever veggies i or meat we haven't used (even if already cooked, usually some leftover boneless/skinless chicken breast that needs a second life) gets thrown in the pot with chicken or vegetable broth. The great thing is that even if the veggies…

Lol, OP. I'm from rhode island but have lived in East TN for almost five yrs. when I go home they tell me I'm picking up a southern accent, and when I meet new people here the first thing they say is "not from here, are you?". I do say y'all now because it sounds nicer than "yous" or "you guys.". And my son will call…

I have changed a lot of what I eat bc as a previous poster said, if you make healthier choices you can eat so much more for your calories! I still eat pizza for example (and not pita pizza or anything...the real thing) but I have 1-2 slices and then have a big side of salad with no dressing or a big plate of broccoli with…

This sounds really good...but nonstick pan plus nonstick spray plus high heat equals release of carcinogens. Just a thought if there's any way to change the recipe and still taste good. Also, I've been making shredded zucchini in food processor and mixing that half and half with pasta.

You can buy sugar free syrups to flavor coffee yourself at home. I bought one at target that has zero calories (vanilla flavored). I use that with skim or 1% milk...I know it's calories in the milk but I need the protein and calcium anyway.

My understanding is that it tells you how many calories to eat in order to lose weight (net calories). If you don't exercise but eat that much you will still lose weight. If you do exercise you can eat as many calories as you burn ecause where you started would have had you losing weight. So you can exercise to support…

People say my husband looks like Adam Rodriguez (the CSI Miami guy)...even though he's Egyptian not Hispanic. :-) For me: Brandon Boyd (lead singer of Incubus), or Harry Connick Jr, or Jamie Oliver. "Naked Chef?"...yes please! Lol
