sparksrecipes.com had a good recipe for Stuffed peppers...i would not use the condensed soup in it though, i would put in tomato paste.

http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/ this one is good

this is what i am going to do when i make mine! and also trying my italian style meat load recipe like this! just add pizza sauce in place of ketchup and omit mustard and worchestershire sauce! :)

thanks! i added that to my favorites list!

I think that you are dealing with ALOT of stress! And I agree that can cause weight gain too.....been there as well! I try to just avoid things that are stressful for me....sometimes its not easy, but when something bugs me, my new stress buster is cleaningor pacing the room! You can do it! {{HUGS}} Forget about…

sweet tea....seems like I can not live with out it! and now that the weather is getting cooler....coffee.

I switch up often. I like to have Oscar mayer Fat Free hot dogs, with Annie's whole wheat pasta &cheese, Peanut butter & Co. chocolate dreams on Nature's Own wheat, Oscar Mayer chicken or turkey breast, some times I make chicken fajitas w/ chicken breast and peppers and onions, grilled cheese made with Kraft 2% American,…

sugar...natural sugar, not the refined kinds...has gotten a bad rep.

I just use measuring cups. I give the left overs to our dogs....that way it's not wasted and they think they are getting royal treatment!

you can add flax seed to any smoothie

Blueberry Smoothie Two Servings • 1 pint fresh blueberries or 2 cups (10 oz.) frozen blueberries -- slightly thawed • 1 cup pineapple or orange juice • 1 container (8 oz.) lowfat vanilla yogurt * I love Stoney field fat free french vanilla! • 2 teaspoon sugar Combine all ingredients in your blender and blend until smooth.…

my most fave is this: Mocha Java Smoothie Combine your breakfast with your coffee for a real treat. For a thicker recipe, add 2 tablespoon vanilla yogurt. Servings: 1 3/4 cup brewed dark coffee 1/2 cup soy milk 1 banana, peeled 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder 1 teaspoon vanilla 6 ice cubes Place all ingredients in a blender…

I love me some VA BBQ!!! We use ketchup in our sauce. The Super Easy Pork BBQ in the crockpot sounds YuMmY!!!

Oh, that's great! how do I get it on My Food Log?

Thank You! I was not even told to keep it under 200 per day! I already do wheat bread and no red meats...or pork...just chicken tenderloin or breast...some turkey breast. Pasta is my weakness! I love, love, love my pasta! I eat wheat pasta sometimes and sometimes the regular. And always make it meatless, but hubby whines…

i had some left over and froze it once...tried to eat it with a spoon like frozen yougurt, but it was not as good....maybe i should have put it into th blender again and added more liquid?

well, actually, i only saw the LPN....the nurse popped in the exam room and asked if wanted to see her instead of waiting longer to see the dr...so i figured that would be okay...she just had a baby a few mos. after me, so figured that she would help me KWIM? she said You can try WW.... so i looked into that and after…

I am a newbie here.....but I hope that I can reach my goal someday soon. I need to take off 20 lbs. to make my short term goal and then another 15-20 to get to "normal" weight.

I say Google this....because I looked it up and got ALOT of info. that tells what to eat, why, and when.

I like to switch up breakfast sometimes homemade oatmeal made w/ water honey & cinnamon, sometimes fruit...a banana or some grapes, sometimes a banana-berry smoothie, or natures own whole wheat muffin w/ fruit spread and/or peanut butter

Thank You! I :heart: it already! :smile:

Walmart! :grumble: seems like the stores have less and less healthy foods....and most of the organic foods that we were buying are no longer there either! :mad:

Peanut Butter-Banana-Soy Smoothie one serving 1 cup Soy milk Chocolate or Vanilla (I like Silk Organic chocolate) 1 banana 1 TB SP natural peanut butter ice...a few cubes will do 177 calories, 1g fat, 3g fiber, 11g sugars, 3 protein :drinker:

Strawberry Smoothie 1 cup light Soy vanilla milk -or- 2 cups nonfat milk 1/2 cup strawberries...I like mine frozen 1 banana 1 TB SP honey 1 tsp vanilla (leave out if you use vanilla soy milk) Blend & enjoy! :drinker: ETA~if you use frozen strawberries, no ice is needed.....but I like mine really cold!!

I am 5' 3.5" and I just wanna get rid of the belly, muffin top, love handles.....I would be really happy to go back to 130-135...but my first goal is 140....to get back to a healthy range.
