Store your PB upside down! Make sure your lid is on tight ;) PB2 is for those people who can't afford the calories of real PB but don't want to give it up. It's good for baking too. Nothing is as good as real PB but for those who don't want to waste 190 calories on 2 spoonfuls.... they can have PB2 for 45 calories. It's…

Post your items here and let people help if you really can't find it from the company website/google/MFP database But yes, when in doubt, find something similar

Go to your food log like you're going to add something. There are tabs at the top RECENT FREQUENT etc click on the frequent if its not already chosen and you'll see :)

Coffee black drip banana frigo light string cheese Fage Greek Yogurt with blueberry PB2 and almond milk are next :)

dip in flour mix with salt and pepper (optional) dip in egg wash (with some worschetshire sauce) coat with corn flake crumb mixture (salt and pepper or your fav. spices) bake delicious!!! Now I'm going to have to try it with parm! thanks!

My picky eater likes these meals (They are not figure friendly though so be careful) French Dips: roast beef (lunch meat works) warmed in au jus on a bun cheese optional fries or tater tots optional (portion control is key for me) lasagna (no weird cheeses allowed) layer your meat sauce and cheese on noodles and top with…

Depends on "why" you want them. Meal replacement, need protein, need something cold, like them? Strawberries, water and ice is as simple as it gets Add spinach or a protein powder or a frozen banana (peel and freeze) or any berry you want. need more calories, add yogurt or milk. It all depends on WHY you want them, and…

Bananas are higher in calories, sugar, carbs etc but they ARE GOOD FOR YOU! Walk into your produce section and sniff the air. I'm not kidding... whatever you smell, is the best produce of the day ;) Nectarines are big for me right now. Grapes, apples, plums, kiwi, and mangoes are my favorites

I too deal with things on a 24 hour basis. So it doesn' t matter when I log my first meal. My times are set just like Cati_Sidhe. Your protein/calories etc are for a 24 hour period no matter when you eat. I say log now until you're done with this day and then change your settings to be whatever you want them to be. This…

Follow these steps: Go into your GOALS and change the setting to the LOWEST AMOUNT OF WEIGHT LOSS per week allowed. I don't know what it is in kg. Use maintain if you prefer. If it still says 1200 then contact MFP tech support. If that changes it, then that is what everyone is trying to tell you. Communication sucks when…

apples and yogurt were my causes too! When I'd eat them and a salad and some water.... I was miserable! I still eat them, but not around the same time of day and not with salads and water!

Peel and freeze your bananas your milk of choice 1 frozen banana (break in half) 1 tbsp your favorite nut butter 1 or 2 tbsp cocoa powder (depending on how bitter you like your chocolate) Or you could use a scoop of chocoloate or vanilla protein powder Chocolate Peanut Butter milkshake at your service!

I think it's because you chose to lose 2 pounds a week. Choose less and see what happens!!! And if you're exercising, it will allow you to eat more than that, but you have to log the exercise.

Could you be eating too fast? I know if I drink too much water, I get bloated. I have to stop around 6 cups unless I'm really active. Running/walking helps move things through the body too, are you active?

55 pounds = a 5000 BTU air conditioner But in 4 more pounds...... 60 pounds = an elephants penis Too funny!

Designer Whey vanilla I can mix it with just almond milk or regular milk and it tastes just fine as long as you blend it or have a shaker ball in your cup. Also vanilla is easy, you can change it up, add berries, cocoa powder, peanut butter, flax or chia and on and on .... Their ARIA one is chalky!

A tub of Ben and Jerry's

If you are tired and need to get to bed, drink a glass of milk or protein skake and head to bed. If you feel like staying up, eat a small meal I can't sleep if I go to bed hungry!!!

First: Protein after workouts ! Then ... Bath with epsom salt Massage muscle rubs or patches Ice packs if needed Good sleep Repeat

Food prep!!!!!!!!! You can shop at night, and then spend time in the kitchen prepping your meals. Freezer meals, crock pot meals, chopped fresh fruits and veggies, salads etc. I work night shift so that's when I do mine. :) I also clean, do laundry, go for a walk, or get caught up on my DVR shows and paint my nails or…

You said: Haha. I think we're in the same boat here. I feel like I'm eating healthy but when I enter my food I'm like "dammit!". I just wish someone could follow me around all day and tell me exactly what to eat and when. Lol. I say: That would be my dream job! ha ha Hire me to shop for you or with you and then prep your…

LOLO Treadmill is a great one! She reminds you to keep good posture and isn't annoying! Similar to the C25K app, but if you want to switch it up, you just tap the graph up and she says "Well ok, let's go then!" I used it OUTSIDE only and not on the treadmill.

pumping your hands will help move the fluid while you're walking. It's just blood/fluid building up since gravity is pulling it down. Massage hands/arms before and after. Used to happen to me all the time... now its only occasionally but I hadn't thought much about it until reading this post!

massage, drink your water, dry brushing. These should help! Not a cure, but should help.

chicken (any cut you like to eat) potatoes (your favorite type) halve or quarter them demending on size frozen green beans or other veggie. 350 for 45 minutes Spray bottom of pan with pam or an oil to keep from sticking put chicken and potatoes together sprinkle with Mrs Dash (or whatever you'd like to use) last 15 minutes…

12 oz of water has to be a typo...? I just mix my smoked salmon with a little low fat mayo and cream cheese. Add onions or celery if you really want to. Doesn't need anything else.

There are tons of add ins you can use to flavor it. Crystal light has liquid's out now, gatorade mix ins, lemon juice, lime juice, any fruit juice in a small amount won't add many calories. You don't have to drink plain water. Flavor it up if it helps. Just be careful of anything that has fake sugars in it..... too much…

clean to me is NOT eating junk and processed foods. When I hit a plateau, I take a couple days of fresh produce, lean protein, protein shakes, and NOTHING packaged or processed. To me, this helps my body kick into gear again. And then I go back to eating dinner with my family, and eating the rice a roni or the boxed pasta…

I recommend just cleaning up your diet. You said this last week wasn't a good representation, but then you said you have a sweet tooth. (As do I) What I did notice, is that there really wasn't any fresh produce in your diet. This could help you. An apple or a peach instead of something sweet. A couple salads with tuna or…

My first thought was What is she eating but your diary is private so I can't look. Open that up and you'll get more feedback.
