  • I work for a Mexican restaurant! The first thing my diet doctor says was "No more work food!". I do find it difficult to pass it up, but we have a grilled chicken salad, and the fajitas are a great idea!! But I do stay away from the Margaritas (although ours are the best in town!). When I got to my 50 lbs lost, I…
  • Didn't read through all replies, but that was my first issue. I bowl, LOVE watching Football (in a bar), and have several friends that play in bands in bars. Told the diet doc I was NOT giving up my beer. I drink 3 or 4 Bud Select 55 a day. It has lower alcohol, so I'm not getting toasted, and I stick to my limit and drink…
  • My diet doctor gave me a recipe for Turkey Burgers that I use the 93/7 Jenni O ground turkey, then mix in cilantro, green onion and curry powder. They are so awesome! I make em for work and have other people addicted to them now. good luck!
  • Love Love Love my Chargers!!! I spend every game at THE best Chargers Bar in Vegas (Michael's Pub)!! Just so I don't tempt myself on naughty bar munchies, I make sure to eat a meal before I leave the house and take a zippy bag with some air popped popcorn and throw a Fiber One 90 calorie bar in my purse. I allocate myself…
  • I too enjoyed my soda, beer and cocktails so much. It was difficult, but I have a coke zero for breakfast, drink water or diet green tea during the day, then can have 3 or 4 Bud Select 55s to unwind (with a water in there too). It really doesn't bother me as much as i thought it would. Just retrain your brain. Good Luck!
  • I have the 300 under 300 and the 200 under 200. The Lasagna Cupcakes in the 300 book are the best!
  • The BOLT UP! is what I "named" mine.
  • I am with everyone else! My favorite is when it says "Hold Me" right before bed. I put him in his jammies and go to bed. For some reason, it knows when I am in a bar and says "Cheers". But my ultimate smile is when it says "BOLT UP!" (that's my fav saying)!
  • I had the same problem when I started my new eating habits. I was afraid I would eat the wrong things, then i started finding good recipes. I just bought Hungry Girl's 300 under 300 cookbook. 300 recipes under 300 calories! Lots of yummy stuff. and you know how may calories you are getting so you can plan your meals. good…
  • My sister has one and loves it. When I started to have to track my steps, I bought a cheap pedometer at wally world, it kept resetting on its own or whenever I would drop it. I finally dug in and bought a FITBIT, I ordered it from a vendor on Amazon (they are a little cheaper there), but the vendor I bought from sold me a…

  • I am in Vegas! I have never dieted, but decided it was time! I saw a Living Social deal for Premier Physicians. I bought it and made the appointment. It has been tough, but when you meet with the doctor (I see Dr Evenson), they go over your current meals/activity levels, etc. and decide what route is best for you. I am…
  • Thanks for all of the ideas. I am not so much hungry all of the time, I am eating quite a bit, but I have a problem putting full meals together. I am supposed to be on high protein and low carbs, I am afraid of wrong carbs. I also don't enjoy cooked vegetables so much, so I need to find something I can do as sides to my…
  • I am with you! I am 44, 5'2" and 238 pounds. I am going through a doctor's office for help with weight loss (6 weeks of a weekly b12 injection and 28 days of phentermine to kick start my metabolism) low calories (1000-1200 per day), high protein, low carbs. I am making foods according to some recipes they have given me,…
