  • The Celestrial teas I like Bengal, Lemon Zinger and Orange Mandarin. I'm somewhat hooked on a ginger tea presently. Black teas, I enjoy Community tea which has Orange flavor. I used to only enjoy black tea with milk and sugar. Now, if I am not drinking water, I am drinking tea (hot or cold) without milk and not so often…
  • I see the endocrinologist once a year unless there is a blip in the testing. Sometimes I have a cyst on the thyroid that needs monitoring more frequently. My blood work has been steady and so no need to come in but once a year. I will say that I highly recommend those that are not seeing an endocrinologist and just seeing…
  • I'm new at this lifestyle changes and loosing weight but thought I might have a few things that might be something you would consider. Understandably, we each make choices to what will be suitable for us as individuals so these are just a few ideas. Your thread caught my eye as I have hypothyroidism too. By the way…
  • You look younger. Better yet. You look healthier. Thanks for the inspiration.
  • First let me say I am obese. Reading the thread has called me to question my own comments of those that have lost weight. I think I have used the word skinny to people I know with the intent of compliment, as a term of comparison from where they were. And from an obese prospective there are ALOT of skinny people. So I'll…
  • If you go to the "search" and type in Kale, you'll find threads including kale. I posted a request for ways to use kale about a month or so ago and really received ALOT of neat recipes. I'm still working on them. I will admit my favorite is kale chips, my second is sweet potatoes and kale salad.

  • Here is an Ice cream sub that I like. I prefer this not completely frozen. I use plain greek 2% plain yogurt and add walnuts and/or berries. Yogurt, Honey & Cinnamon Ice Cream (Makes 4-6 Servings) ◾16oz Greek Yogurt ◾1/4 Cup Honey ◾1/2 Tsp Cinnamon 1. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and whisk to combine. 2. Pour the…
  • Everyone has had great suggestions. I could only add that accessibility was the biggest thing that helped me. I found I liked flavored water and drank Propel. So I bought a case for home and for work. I always had flavored water available. If I were traveling or visiting friends or family I made sure I took a couple…
  • I watched another episode where he referred to the 2 week plan. Audience members introduced a few recipes that fit under the plan. I'm learning how to cook different veggies and so far so good. Liking the flavor and ease of the new recipes.
  • Love the thread. I've already copied many of the recipes. We tend to make roasted red pepper more then anything. We love hummus so much that we gifted ourselves a food processor for Christmas.
  • Earlier posts are good. Adding flavor, using a straw. You might want to check out infusing water. This is one site that has lots of recipes. http://www.infusedwaterrecipes.com/#!infused-water-recipes/c1jm3 I found having a pitcher in the frig ready for me to pour a glass of infused water makes it more appealing. I…
  • I can tell. I was holding out hope that someone might have wanted to post but was just deterred as there was so many negative comments. That's okay. I'm not normally a fad diet type of person. Last attempt with any name associated to a "diet" was Weight Watchers and that was over 20 years ago. Common sense tells me what I…
  • Wow, totally surprised by this thread. I searched to find others that are trying the program as I wanted to share ideas. I realize everyone has to approach a healthier life differently and there is no cookie cutter method for those that are trying to loose weight. So I am a bit disappointed in the thread as I search for…
  • Count me in, please.
