Im reading "Wheat Belly" right now. It is really good & full over very interesting and thought provoking information. Also, "China Study" is a phenomenal book.

I am so excited about fitnessblender.com, why have I never heard of this website until now!

Mine is set for 1290 calories a day, but I have been struggling to hit 1100 a day. My goal this week is to actually hit 1200 calories a day because I feel like I am under eating. i am not trying to intentionally, but since I've been cutting out gluten & carbohydrates and jacking up my protein I haven't been hungry like I…

wow aeblyden! what great progress!! you look great!

Measure it dry ❤ Unless the package says otherwise, uncooked or raw is typically how you weigh your meat, grains, produce ect.

Happy April 1st Everyone! 4/1 SW - 148.4 lbs (Lost 0.6 pounds since my last weigh in two days ago but I am not going to count it for this)

Ham for sure.... other than that I am debating. It is just going to be my husband, my parents and myself (maybe my brother-in-law & his girlfriend). I L❤VE to cook so I always go super overboard when making celebratory meals. I am going to TRY and keep it healthy this Easter but I don't know if it will happen.

Tofu noodles with shrimp, tomatoes, asparagus & light alfredo sauce

Breakfast tacos! Two corn tortillas with eggbeaters, 2 slices of low sodium bacon and salsa! Because it was breakfast & I tacos are my favorite item in the world ♥

agreed!!! ♥

Hey everyone, I'm Melissa.♥ I have recently started eating GF, and I can not believe the difference I have felt even over such a short period of time. I am eating GF for personal reasons, not for health reasons, but I have 3 family members who are diagnosed with Celiac. I would love some new friends so we can support each…

Count me in!

I agree with twoscmom, it could very well be your protein level. I have tremendously increased my protein intake and it has made a huge difference for me.

Feel free to look at my diary. I eat a lot of protein. For breakfast, I always have eggs/eggbeaters (I am a hot, savory breakfast person). I then mix whatever leftover protein I have from dinner the previous night like steak or salmon along with some veggies. If I don't have anything left over, I use low-sodium bacon, or…

I'm do not have a sweet tooth at all, so I typically eat a hard boiled egg with sriracha, or a cheese stick at night if my tummy is talking to me. High protein, low carb :)

I could not agree more. You could get such a better, more well rounded and complete breakfast for the same numbers of calories. There are so many quick, make ahead, breakfast ideas out there online. I make breakfast sandwiches,burritos and mini quiches. I wrap them in plastic wrap separately and freeze them. That way when…

As far as pantry items go...* quinoa * wild rice * low sodium stocks * olive oil * low sodium seasonings * nut/seed butter (my favorites are sunflower seed and almond) * black beans * garbanzo beans * canned diced tomatoes (no salt added)

my go to snacks are* hardboiled egg with sriracha * cucumber slices with hummus * apple with almond or peanut butter hm... i'm pretty boring ha ha

I personally have always done volume with soup, but I don't know if that is right or wrong.

that is so wonderful! congratulations on your success so far! ❤ Keep up the great work and keep up updated on your progress!!

I ❤ Kale I am making kale for dinner tonight actually to go with my fish. I have never made kale chips, although I should! I buy them every time I go to Trader Joes, so I am sure making them is a hell of a lot cheaper :)

My Victoria Secret order to be delivered already! Damn you back ordered sports bra!

You can't get any quicker or easier than just baking chicken breasts/thighs, any type of fish/shrimp in the oven, and pairing it with a steamable vegetable side. Minimal dishes if you cover your baking sheet with aluminum foil. Then all you have to clean are the plates you ate off of! :) There are so many good (low sodium)…

I am looking for the same thing. I'm 26, eating a 1200 cal/day diet. I'm looking for friends who are active on here and are ready to really commit to being successful. I'm looking to lose around 25 lbs. Please feel free to add me anyone ♥

I don't eat breakfast until I am hungry. I typically don't wake up hungry and it takes an hour or more before my stomach decides to wake up and want food. My favorite breakfast on the go is eggs in the microwave. I just throw in some eggbeaters, eggwhites or just whole eggs into a coffee cup, whisk it up then toss is…

I typically use sliced cucumber in place of chips :)

I still watch it! My husband and I have both watched wrestling since we were kids. I don't care that its fake. This is the FIRST year in 5 years we have not been able to order Wrestlemania! :( booo

I drank two bottles of wine Friday on my cheat day.... and woke up fine?
