If you chop the veggies up really fine (or if you have a Vitamix, which I don't) you hardly taste them. EXCEPT the broccoli. The taste of broccoli always comes through.

Fresh berries and granola. If berries are out of season, I buy frozen strawberries and let them defrost over night. I also buy different kinds of granola every week and it changes the taste. I'm addicted. I eat this almost every day.

fruit and veggie smoothie. I mix and match whatever I have on hand. Shredded broccoli, kale, shredded carrots, chopped up cauliflower, cucumber, apple, pear strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, kiwi... and almond milk and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I usually add 2 - 3 veggies and 2 - 3 fruits.

30 Day Shred is on youtube for free. I highly recommend it. Lv.. 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Pc-NizMgg8 Lv. 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKdJ9jJv594 Lv.. 3 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMN4g3D4ODE&feature=relmfu

I love bread and pasta, but they are problematic for me. I try to stick to ezekiel bread and protein pasta, but every once in a while I indulge in a big bowl of pasta and italian bread. Moderation works well for me.

Thank you for posting.

At first I didn't. I couldn't lose my belly no matter what I did. Then I not only ate back my exercise calories, but raised my calories from 1200 to 1350. (Only leaving myself a 10% deficit) That actually worked.

Bumping for info.

I read that you're supposed to do: Day 1 - 30DS Day 2 - 30DS Day 3 - Cardio Day 4 - 30DS Day 5 - 30DS Day 6 - Cardio Day 7 - Rest. So it's supposed to take longer than a month. I begin my second week tomorrow. I've lost inches all over my body, so I'm excited to see the end results.

I was wondering the same thing. I have a fruit and vegetable smoothie every morning and I'm always close to being over my sugar limit before my day even begins.

You have to continue to be strong against temptation. It doesn't mean you don't ever treat yourself. Treating yourself every now and then is important so you don't feel so restricted. So every now and then, when he offers you chinese food (its awesome not to have to cook) go for it. But for the most part, remain strong and…

I think you need to eat more. Your body may be in starvation mode. Eat back all your exercise calories and don't ever go below 1200.

A quick scan of your diary tells me you need to eat more. I know that sounds insane, but if you don't eat enough, your body goes into starvation mode and it won't allow you to lose weight. When you eat more, make sure it's clean eating. Some people think, "Oh, I should eat more, break out the chocolate." Not good. Eat…

Net Calories Consumed = Total Calories Consumed - Exercise Calories Burned. So lets say you are supposed to be eating 1200 cals a day and you burn 300, if you only eat 1200, your net is really 900. My advice (without having all of the specifics of your situation) is to eat whatever mfp has told you and make sure you eat…

How many calories are you netting a day?

I second that.

Just eat oatmeal.

Yep. It's called water intoxication or water poisoning.

Fillet Mignon with a blue cheese crown, garlic mashed potatoes, house salad with blue cheese and chocolate thunder from down under from Outback. (I'm actually having this meal tomorrow as a mommy's day celebration) :happy: It's my favorite.

:laugh: You Wiki'd her margarine? That is awesome.

Lol!! Me neither.

I almost said the same thing as you BflSaberfan

You're awesome!
