Congrats! Keep up the good work

Thanks for all the replies!

Quinoa is a good source of fiber, as well as calcium, protein and iron

I think pizza sometimes gets a bad rap because some people only eat chain restaurant pizza. It is like saying burgers are all bad, when we know a good quality burger topped with lots of veggies can be a good choice. When I think of pizza I think of my local pizzeria, a whole wheat crust, topped with fresh cheese and simple…

Running! I'm a sissy and I don't run when itis cold out

So you only eat during a 4 hour window every day?

I don't buy frozen meals but i always have in my freezer cooked shrimp, creamed spinach, broccoli, peas, frozen berries. Also, whenever I make soup I freeze some in single serving jars so I always have something to eat.

Sounds good! Thanks

Monday is always soup and salad here..tonight the soup is "baked potato soup" from skinnytaste.com http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/02/baked-potato-soup.html?m=1 Nobody but me knows it has cauliflower!

I just posted this on another thread http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2006/01/south-beach-diet-phase-one-breakfast.html?m=1 Make a casserole in the beginning of the week and then have a piece every day. good luck!

Veggies with hummus or tzatziki sauce, apple with a little peanut butter, cheese, hard boiled egg, a piece of any of these egg cassaroles http://www.kalynskitchen.com/2006/01/south-beach-diet-phase-one-breakfast.html?m=1 I'm going to start making one of these every week so I have an easy grab and go breakfast good luck!

Sorry I wasn't clear. I do 4 then 7 then 5 then 9 then 4 then 9 then 7 then 5 then 4 and repeat. The 4 and 5 levels are for 2 minutes and the 7 and 9 and for 1 minute. Running is so mindless but it is just too cold and icy outside to run!

Cheese, hard boiled egg, berries, apples, peanut butter, veggies with or without hummus, yogurt good luck!

Right now the highest resistance is 9. It starts out slow at 4, increases to 5 then 7 then 9. I'm at each level for 1 minute. Thanks for you response!

TJ maxx/Marshall's or Costco. Right now Costco has some clothes that people swear are the same as Lululemon. You can find them in the stores or even online!

Sounds good...thanks!

Thanks! I just spent the week with the most picky 7 year old and now I appreciate my kids even more. After a couple of days my kids were telling this little girl that she has to stop being so picky and at least try my cooking. She comes from a household where it is acceptable to eat chicken nuggets every night for dinner…

I make these for my kids all the time. I use 1 slice canadian bacon, THomas 100% whole wheat english muffin, 1 egg, about 1/2 oz sharp cheddar and a handful of baby spinach. It is 275 calories. I used to eat them a lot, but I rarely eat bread now so I just eat everything else and it is 155 cals. I cook the egg in a small…

Eat at least one salad a day as your meal so you stay away from starchy, high calorie side dishes. Try to eat your protein grilled and if you can, go for lots of walks...have fun!

I eat salad everyday. Right now I'm loving mixed field greens with spinach, hard boiled egg, tomato, red pepper, grilled chicken all chopped up and tossed with Tzatziki sauce as the dressing. I also love the simplicity of putting either tuna or curried chicken salad over mixed greens.

Congrats! You look great...

I don't because I'm a breast cancer survivor and need to stay away from soy proteins which is in almost all protein shakes. I wish I could because it would be a quick meal replacement!

I do because I top it with protein and some fat ie:chicken, steak, tuna, hard bioled egg, avocado, nuts...I also use tzatziki sauce as a dressing a lot and it has protein, is low carb and only 25 cals. I have a salad as my meal most days for lunch and dinner, really I just use the veggies/salad greens as a base for my…

Great post! I eat in a similar way, except for breakfast. I usually have an egg with veggies...

I don't eat bread, but on occasion my husband does. We keep a loaf of the regular Ezekiel 4.9 sprouted bread in the freezer for him. It is a great source of high fiber, high protein whole grain. There are no preservatives or sweeteners in their breads. Trader Joe's has the best price around here.

Great post! If you stay away from these foods in a couple of weeks your body will go through a detox and you will feel so much better. Also, I switched to Arizona unsweetened iced tea instead of the 1-2 diet pepsi's I was drinking a day.
