arc trainer...i feel like a dork on it..but a good workout

johnsonville chicken sausage links.

Certainly didnt sit in a careseat until i was 8 like my kdis now, remember walking about to the penny candy store about 8 years old with my cousin and buying smokes for my aunt..again 8 years old...sitting in the far back of my grandmas station wagon with all my cousins making faces at the trucks..no seatbelts...

Congrats to you-those are the BEST NSV!! You should feel very proud of yourself (for getting to where you are AND for being brave enough to try on those jeans!!) Happy Friday to you!!

fajitas-just the meat and veggies, not the tortillas, chicken taco salad, avoid the white queso sauce

peppers-orange red yellow with hummus celery with laughing cow cheese wedge grapes strawberries and blueberries popchips skinny pop popcorn fiber one bars

half arnold bagel thins with 1/2 tbsp of whipped cream cheese, coffee with non dairy creamer, bottle of water. however i was running late today....bowl of strawberries, blueberries, and 1/4 of banana is my favorite breakfast.

I am not a huge sweet person, but when I am craving sweets I have found that i can get it in things besides cakes, cookies, and candies. For example fiber one bars or kellogs fiber plus bars..are they great for me, no but they taste like candy bars to me and give me a good dose of fiber and protein. Also I will eat a bowl…

i am also a snacker-first website-snackgirl.com second my snacks: skinny pop popcorn, 39 calories per cup orange, yellow, red pepper strips with hummus fiber 1 90 calorie bars pretzel sticks pop chips or special k cracker crisps blueberries, bananas, strawberries, diced up eaten together orange wedges celery and laughing…

clarification, i mean the ff zesty italian, it is soo low in calories, and i have found that i no longer even need a full serving, i use 1 tbsp which is only like 15 calories (normal serving is 2 tbsp)

i also really like the kraft zesty italian but if you are looking for creamy, i use wishbone light cesar and it is soo yum, even my husband who is a die hard full fat creamy italian guy likes this dressing.

Your calories are really low. If you are worried about having a bank of calories at the end of the day try adding exercise and then saving those calories, but dont try to save your calories that sustain you. You do realize that MFP gives you a deficit and that you do not need to continue to have one right? (I get it i like…

there was just a post on this yesterday that had a TON of great ideas, you may want to try searching that to get some good ideas. i spend the majority of my time, and money in the produce/deli area. my trip on MOnday included: Apples, blueberries, strawberries, bananas, squash, green leaf lettuce, broccoli, sweet potatoes,…

hungrygirl.com just did an article on this, she went and taste tested tells you which of them she's had but also which ones she was skeptical of on the reported calorie count, just in case you want to check it out. Ive scoped out the new menu, love that there are so many choices.

prior to my both my calorie budget and my money budget i was a self admitted starbucks snob...however since those are now only very rare treats for me, i add nestle sugar free hot chocolate mix into my coffee, i actually only use 1/3 of the packet so 1 packet makes me three cups of coffee (using more than that it tastes…

i have used hummus in place, also olive oil, also have used a light cesar dressing, they all worked well for me, i still liked the taste of it. probably the hummus and the cesar dressing more so.

depends on what else is going on in my life....for example, i had a wedding a few weekends ago, but it was a later wedding, plenty of time for me to make it to the gym in the morning to get a great workout in, other times i work out the day before or the day after to try and make up for it, sometimes despite my best…

arnold sandwich thins with laughing cow cheese sauteed zucchini and squash (make it the night before and just zap it) strawberries, blueberries, bananas, bolthouse farms perfectly protein mocha drink popchips when i want crunch skinny pop popcorn kiwi and almonds special k cereal and 1/4 cup milk-perfect for sweetness, i…

my five year old hasnt lost any yet, but when my older daughter was losing them it was $5 for the first tooth and $1 for each tooth after that.

kraft ff zesty italian, agree it doesnt taste ff. also like wishbone light cesar. i will admit that i have slowly weaned myself off dressings, i used to be a heavy ranch all over my salad, but now i can use 1 tbsp which is less than a serving of most dressings and when i can pile a TON of things in my salad i can eat it…

i have no information about night shifts/night eating etc. but make sure that you are drinking a lot of water during this time, sounds like your body is pretty active and if you are feeling bloated and blah after shifts water will certainly help with that.

agree check out skinnycrockpot and skinnytaste both have great crockpot recipes. good idea to start cooking, its amazing how much better you can eat when preparing your own food. my staples are: produce-i buy A TON of fruits and veggies throughout the week, i usually go on Sundays and Thursdays just for my produce:…

instead of the typical overly sweet sweet potato casserole we are having oven roasted sweet potatoes (we have these all year long anyway), parboil, dice them up, sprinkle with seasoning, very light oil and bake, delicious. While we will also have the buttered corn for those that call it a Thanksgiving staple, we will also…

Congratulations!! That is a HUGE accomplishment to be proud of. I quit smoking with both of my pregnancies and then restarted...this year i was determined, i gave it up for lent...but then started again after 40 days...i'm still confident that one day i will give it up for good. You deserve to be proud of yourself.

haha I said the same thing one day this week every single add was pringles and totinos party pizzas:)

didnt read all of these so may be a repeat, but skinnytaste pumpkin dip...AMAZING with apples and with cinnamon graham crackers...yum.

Veggies!!! Sugar snap peas, red, yellow, orange pepper strips, celery..all soo yummy. popcorn has a crunch, i eat skinny pop or the 100 calorie snack bags. Rice cakes have crunch, usually get 15 or so for 120 calories. Popchips, the bbq ones especially.

not the best options, but i always get the bbq grilled chicken sandwich with no cheese or bacon and then i don't eat the top bun, get chips and salsa for the side, but it sounds like the naked tenders are a great idea:)

egg beaters omelet loaded with veggies, even if throw in some cheese it is under 150 calories.

This is NOT A REASON TO HATE YOURSELF!!! It is life, things happen, did you enjoy dinner with your husband and daughter? Was it fun? Did you have good conversation? Did you enjoy the food while you were eating it? I bet the answer is yes. These are all good reasons to NOT HATE YOURSELF. i know i have been there, i have…
