Bump.

No it doesn't. Next time I eat some anchovies I might try to make a correction. ????

Good answer.

You are absolutely right! I just figured this out the hard way by weighing the anchovies separately from the oil, lol. So now I get it. The nutrition facts on the back of the can is for the anchovies only, but the weight on the outside of the can is for both the oil and the anchovies. Also the nutrition information given…

What is PCOS? Thanks.

It only gives a net weight of 2 oz or 56 grams. So that means the 2oz is just the anchovy information. If I weight the contents, the additional weight will be the weight of the olive oil?

Synamin had it right. Eat more protein.

My heart goes out to you. I wish I could think of a solution to your problems. Have you tried to find a better paying job? I admire how strong you are under the circumstances. Take care and good luck!

Good answer Chopper Pilot. I am going to try to remember this when my husband tries to put food in my mouth. He actually pouts if I don't join him in overeating or eating junk food!

Bump, thanks. :smile:

I have the same questions. I will be interested if anyone has any solutions. Thanks.

Great post!! Such an inspiration. You gave me a lot to think about. Keep up the good work!

Yes, thanks! Melanie

I was diagnosed last August with Mixed Connective Tissue Disease - a combination of diseases such as Lupus and polymiositis (inflammation of the muscles) as well as arthritis etc. What it boils down to is I have joint pain and muscle weakness. Even a little exercise makes me feel like I have been hit by a truck. I am…

Does anyone have a recipe le butter that only makes a cup or so?

bluiz13 - How many calories a day are you allowed? On my 1200 it is not possible to fit most of these cheat foods in. I am not says that it is totally wrong to indulge once in a while but I do not see how they can be fit in. Just saying.

suzyq - That dish although it sounds yummy, certainly doesn't sound low calorie. I don't think I could eat it and still stay under my calories.

I'm no expert, but I have found that I have a few go to meals that I know are healthy, easy to prepare and food that I look forward to eating. Even whole days worth of food that I know if I eat will cause a weight loss. That way, when I don't want to think, plan etc it is easy to still stay on track.

Excuse me...off topic...but how do you make that cottage cheese pudding that someone mentioned? Sounds good! I am trying to figure out a way to eat cottage cheese that is palatable. Thanks.

Do you cut the tomatoes up in it or put the cottage cheese on top of the tomatoes?
