Feel free to add me! Im back to MFP and am anticipating a FitBit for my bday in 3 weeks. Was gone for more than a year, after a divorce and gaining all of my weight back my motivation is stronger than ever to lose and get back to my healthy lifestyle, (and the losing!) I too enjoy cooking and outdoors-y stuff, living in…

Hershey's Sugar Free chocolate syrup and fresh strawberries or throw some frozen blueberries on top. Or if Im in a savory mood, just sprinkled with Lawry's Seasoned Salt. Horrible for my salt intake for the day though.

Coat raw chicken generously in Mrs. Dash Chicken and Lawry's Seasoned Pepper... Grills up great!!

Saving this for later, awesome thread.. great ideas!

Hot

Broccoli Salad with chopped broccoli, red onion, bacon and raisens. YUM-O

Yum! Thanks for this!

Looks amazing! Im lucky enough to live in Alaska and have ample opportunity to enjoy salmon right out of the water, and usually like it plain as plain can be... but this week.. will include this recipe, cant wait! Thanks for sharing!!

~non fat plain chobani or other greek yogurt +cocoa powder + liquid stevia = mix > freeze Costco sells Healthy Choice Fudge Pops - 100 calories Anything Skinny cow I also pop Jello sugar free dark chocolate pudding cups ( 60 cal ) in the freezer, Yummy!!

Miansi - That sounds awesome! Eggs I find are great at hiding veggies, and veggies are great at bulking up any meal. I scramble 1 egg with a couple extra whites with whatever veggies i have left over, piece of fat free sliced cheese and wrap it up in an 80 calorie wrap, piece of fruit and good to go! On super hungry…

Thought this was a pregnancy craving until I started craving it again before I started dieting... Nacho Cheese Doritos ( hands down ) Sliced Apple Creamy peanut butter. Apple > Peanut butter > Doritos. If you think about it... cheese + apple is yummy apple + peanut butter is yummy Why not get best of both worlds in one…

Wow! So many yummy suggestions! Saving this thread for later. :)

I think I'm going to be eating Tilapia for the next month trying out all these recipes. Thanks everyone for the great ideas. Been getting really tired of my staples and need to change it up before I go diving for something not okay. Yummy!!

for later - awesome list!

I agree!!

Anything by Pitbull Anything from David Guetta "Catgroove" by Parov Stelar - awesome beat that just about forces you into a rhythm without knowing it. I start my workout with this song.

Dont be afraid to build muscle. Muscle tissue burns more calories than fatty tissue does. Breaking up your cardio is a good choice. My trainer recently changed my workouts to 45 min cardio, strength training, and then another 45 min of a different type of cardio. Seems to be working so far. That being said, everyone is…

I do.. (my favorite is this cheese/carmel mix popcorn.. DELISH). I never TRY to make room in my daily goal, never sacrifice something healthy to make room for the junk. I also find that now that I am so aware of calories that I dont enjoy the junk as much as I used to. Kind of bums me out sometimes, because I dont enjoy…

Hello! Have been around since January, and am always looking to meet others with the same goals. Feel free to add me.. best of luck!!:happy:

When I started, I had the same issue. Now, I try to eat nuts, hummus or low fat cottage cheese if I need to get some calories in. I try to make sure they have SOME nutritional value so I'm not packing in just crap. Protien shakes or fruit smoothies can also pack in some good nutrients, vitamins and calcium. My favorite…

I too am hoping to lose 100+. I have yet to set a final weight goal.. will probably be doing that with a trainer this upcomming week, but I thought I'd approach my weight loss goals 10% at a time. Ive read all the wonderful health benefits to losing just 10%, and it doesnt seem to have such an intimidating number to…
