I absolutely LOVE that combo :) I'm a big turkey sandwich fan...also try adding a little cranberry sauce, or beets, or coleslaw, or a big slice of red pepper! 100 calorie bread thins are also great to keep the calories down!

I'm 5'5" and my "goal" is also 130. I'm 145 right now (you can see how I look in my pic lol) and I'm content with how I look. I consider myself to be curvy in a good way and I assume that just by working out and eating right I can trim a little bit more off. I quoted goal because I'm not focused on the actual weight but…

I also make a stir fry...throw in some veggies and maybe a protein...and I've been using either a thai chili sauce or a thai peanut sauce (both made by kikkoman). As long as you monitor how much sauce you put in...the calorie and sodium levels aren't too bad!

That soup sounds delicious :)

I would recommend going through all the recipe threads that are already on this site...everyone posting has calories in mind! But something that I've been making a lot of for filling low-cal meals are shiritake noodles. (again, there are a lot of posts about these). I think it tastes just like pasta...just make sure you…

I've totally been there...and I'm also in one of those funks too. Seems like everyone's having a birthday this month! Normally I just try to keep my splurges within my calorie limit. The best thing you can do is just get it all out of the house! Or have your family members keep it out of sight. Then at least when office…

Ideal Protein...that's what it's called http://www.idealprotein.com/us/home

My mom has been battling with her weight ever since I was born...(yup it's my fault! ). She also has chronic back/hip pain that has been getting more and more severe over the years. Basically, she can't be sitting for too long...or standing for too long...and any form of moving (walking, exercise, etc) results in a day of…

ZUCCHINI or SQUASH QUICHE 3 cups zucchini shredded (that’s one large zucchini, about 9” x 3”)...or use summer squash...or a combination! 1 onion, chopped 1 cup Bisquick 4 eggs ½ cup vegetable oil ½ cup grated cheese parsley salt ½ cup cheddar cheese, shredded Comvine all ingredients Place in greased 9” x 9” pan Bake at 350…

Healthy tuna melt: Hollow out a vine-ripe tomato so it looks like a cup. Fill it with a scoop of tuna salad (tuna with mayo or plain greek yogurt, and your favorite mix-ins...carrots, celery, peppers, pickles, etc). Add a slice of avacado (or not) and the a small piece of pepperjack cheese (or other cheese if you don't…

Also..make a big batch of quinoa with whatever veggies you have in your fridge and portion it out for the week...it's so delicious :)

I tend to make an extra serving of whatever I had for dinner and bring it to work to microwave for lunch. Often it's chicken with some sort of veggie, or stir fry, or I also make meatloaf and freeze it in individual servings to bring in to work...again with a side of veggie.

It sounds like you're taking all the right steps to being a fit, healthier you. In my opinion, I would focus less on what the scale tells you and more about how you look and feel! When you're working out so heavily, it's common to gain weight because you are constantly gaining muscle. So take a look in the mirror...I'm…

egg whites, sweet apple chicken sausage, spinach, broccoli, jalapeno yogurt cheese, and a little cayenne pepper :)

cool!

We have a HUGE family dinner every sunday and my boyfriend came up with the BEST meal for my birthday a few weeks ago. It was just a big salad bar! lettuce in a big bowl, sliced grilled: steak, chicken, and shrimp, raw sliced: peppers, strawberries, green beans, cucumbers (pick a few toppings that are out of the ordinary)…

Someone just posted this on another board and I'm dying to try it! Otherwise just freeze them until you decide what to do :) Skinny Chunky Monkey Cookies Recipe: Ingredients: 3 ripe bananas 2 cups old-fashioned oats 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce 1 tsp. vanilla…

The tofu ones are normally in the produce aisle near the bean sprouts and other tofu products! This is the case for shaws, stop and shop, and whole foods! (trader joes doesn't have them)

I think chicken is so easy and satisfying in the crockpot...and there are so many ways to make it not boring! Shredded buffalo chicken: Chicken breasts and Franks Red Hot (no added calories here!) - eat this plain or throw it on a sandwich for lunch and it's delicious. I usually put it in a sandwich thin (100cal) with goat…

Hmm… I’m not sure where you’re getting stuck…but to add a new recipe you go to the “Food” tab, subheading-“recipes”. Hit the “Enter New Recipe” green button on the right. “Add Ingredient” and enter each ingredient separately. In terms of water…you can either enter “Water-Municipal” and ½ cup = 4oz…or you can just add the…

great site!
