  • Cut out the egg yolks .... I know Dr. Oz says they're perfectly fine (from a cholesterol stand point) ... but whole large egg = 70 calories, large egg white only = 17 cal. LOTS of salad. A WHOLE plateful of lettuce, with carrots - onions - bell peppers - mushrooms - is super low cals. My lunch today, was 265 calories...…

  • You probably will end up making yourself sick if you double your calorie intake - even just for one day. I'm normally around 1000 - 1200 calories per day and a few days ago, getting up to 1500 did me in! Pass the Tums, and get the TV remote ready! My question would be, what is your goal? Is your goal to keep weight off,…

  • Hey - have you thought about taking your body measurements and not relying 100% on the scale? That may not be the best solution - and I know it doesn't exactly answer your question... but you may be gaining that muscle tone which is heavier than fat.

  • Egg-white omelettes!! Things like mushrooms, chopped green peppers, salsa/onions, and fresh black pepper are practically "freebies" as far as calories go.

Ideally, I'm eating 10 - 12 salads per week - and a huge salad with 2 - 3 cups of romaine, tomatoes, cucumbers, mushrooms, bell peppers/banana peppers - and…
