  • My thought is that we need to give ourselves a treat every now & then, or go on crazy binges... so if you think it would satisfy you to have part of the candy apple, buy one, cut it in pieces, toss about half.. and enjoy it. Another thought is.. what happy memories does eating the candy apple bring? Can you duplicate those…
  • May I suggest that you do not weigh daily? Give yourself a break, and weigh at the most 1x per week. I prefer weighing in at least 2 weeks or more apart. To me it gives a more accurate picture of your weight and fitness.
  • I haven't tried this, but it looked interesting http://www.food.com/recipe/simple-low-calorie-white-cake-398753
  • What is a carmel vitatop (did I spell that right)? I also had a weird couple of days craving sweet stuff. I gave in :( HOWEVER I write down every little thing, breath mint etc, so I know exactly where I am on caloriies, which seems to help me keep it together.
  • One more idea (well I hope I don't come up with more anyway). Go online before you order take out or go to a restaurant. Figure out the calories of what you really want to have. If it is too many calories, decide what will work for you, that you will be happy with. Example: My husband likes to eat out. I shudder at the…
  • I completely understand. Have you thought of saving up your extra calories and then having the real thing? When I REALLY want something, I exercise a little more each day, don't eat back those calories, and then when I have enough extra calories I treat myself to that special something I really want. Most of the time, I…
  • Ok I am weird but Josh Groban & Celine Dion are perfect for me. Add in a little Ace of Base (yes I am old), Enya for when I want a little more push. AnnaLiese
  • You will need to exercise, which will help you lose weight, and tone your body. Exercise and food reduction go hand in hand,. Be sure and acurately record EVERYTHING you eat and your exercise. I have noticed people put in the things like cleaning house for calories burned.. guess what you got fat while you were doing that.…
  • Try allrecipes.com When I did a search for vegetables all kinds of recipes popped up. Keep your chin up, and keep plugging along. That weight will come off. AnnaLiese
  • I LOVE your idea with the romaine instead of bread for sandwich/roll ups for lunch!
  • Oregon. Land of liquid sunshine. If you don't like the weather, wait 10 minutes, it will change.
  • I weigh in every 2 weeks at my Drs office. That was I am not obsessing day to day, and it is an accurate scale. You have to eat enough to keep your body going.
  • I LOVE La Croix sparking water. For me it satisfies me instead of soda. Even my teen son likes it. You might need to go through caffeine withdrawl first :( AnnaLiese
  • I find that if I stay up later than I should, I am eating to stay awake.. so go to bed earlier. I exercise in the morning, and then a smaller amount in the evening. It seems to help keep my appetite in check, and give me a few more calories that I am allowed to eat, if I feel i need them. STAY OUT OF THE KITCHEN, easier…
  • Sweet potaoes are perfect for me. I bake a couple up, then I usually have 1/2 for breakfast. Then if I need a snack of something that will give me a boost I just peel and eat 1/2 cold. NO butter, or you end you with too many calories. I will admit there are days when I feel like I am starving, then other days like today,…
