Boiled eggs Meat, cheese and crackers Peanut butter and crackers Cold vegetable salad. This one is really good and keeps really well for a few days: http://www.pipandebby.com/pip-ebby/2011/5/23/edamame-summer-salad.html. You could add some black beans, chicken, ham or bacon for additional flavor. For a sweet addition,…

First time to post in the June challenge, but I have been doing the challenge. The May challenge was really good for me. It is almost becoming habit now to not eat after 9, but I want to give it another month before I make my cut-off time earlier. :smile: No snacking after 9 p.m. 26/30 nights. 7/26 Can snack after 9 p.m.…

I'm going to give this a try! I need the challenge. :smile:

It is discouraging when the scale isn't showing a decrease, but don't give up! Everyone's weight loss journey is different. For me, it seems like if I eat really bad one week, it takes a week or two to show the weight increase, then a week or two to show a decrease again. Also, when I start to exercise more, it take a…

May Goals No snacking after 9 p.m. 18/21 nights. 11/18 Can snack after 9 p.m. 3/21 nights. 3/3 Me: 15* LNS: 2 I haven't posted since May 25th, so bringing my totals up to date. 1 of the 2 "fails" was due to having to eat supper later than normal. The other "fail" I only had fruit, so didn't feel quite as bad about it.

SW: 156.6 (as of 5/8) GW: 136 Sunday weigh-ins 5/15:155.8 5/22: 156.4 My weight had fluctuated between 155 and 154 during the week so I was really hoping for a nice loss instead of a gain. :frowning: Oh, well, it is a new week! :smile:

Despite that, I am still really glad for this challenge. I know I would have ate more of my calories each night if it wasn't for this…

Not sure how high of protein you are wanting.. I usually eat oatmeal with a dash of cinnamon and choice of fruit for breakfast. Snacks are "quick to grab" items like hard-boiled eggs, trail mix or granola bar Lunch may be another "snack" option or something simple like a peanut butter and pickle sandwich, peanut butter and…

I hope today is a better day for you as recover. When I had my gallbladder out (laparoscopic), almost immediately I felt so much better than I had prior to the surgery, but it took probably about 5-6 days to feel "normal". On the second and third day, I would move around for a bit then rest for awhile...sort of built up…

Roasted vegetables are suggested a lot but they are worth another mention! About any vegetable can be tossed with olive oil and choice for seasonings and roasted. Some of the vegetables I have tried are carrots, broccoli, brussels sprouts, asparagus, potato and sweet potato. Can Google the exact time and oven temp for…

What are you specifically looking for? Everyone has a different idea of what healthy is. Are you wanting low calorie recipes? Any special diet, such as vegan or paleo?

I know I'm late joining this challenge Losing 20 pounds by July 4th is close to impossible for my usual weight loss pattern, but I need a hard challenge to get me re-motivated to lose the 20 pounds I already lost once. :neutral: I'm aiming for the July 4th goal of 20 pounds...if I lose 10, I will be thrilled, but am…

I'm a newbie to this challenge. I hope it is ok that I am starting late? I've been wanting to do this and doing it as challenge would be so much better than on my own. :smile: May goals as of May 11 No snacking after 9 p.m. 18/21 nights. Can snack after 9 p.m. 3/21 nights.

The Chicken & Mushroom Risotto sounds delicious! The cookbook that was a lifesaver when I first started counting calories was the Taste of Home Comfort Food Diet Cookbook: New Family Classics Collection (second volume in the Comfort Food Diet series). After 4 years there are still some recipes I turn to from time to time.…

Oh! Also, when you are on the run and need a quick granola bar...Kind bars are gluten free and certain ones are dairy free as well. My current dairy/gluten free Kind bar favorite is the popped salted caramel. :smile:
