  • Great recipe, yum!
  • Thank you. I am a single mom dealing with my family and an acquisition at work and I am going crazy trying to log in and keep track of calories, and this week here we are eating boxed food from the freezer. Other wise I am so crazy busy I am not sure what I am eating .... Arrgh. I feel so guilty not knowing what I ate. The…
  • I agree with not eating your calories burned. I have stopped logging my exercise, because iIt was kind of a guess anyway. I am too tempted to eat what I burn. Especially when stressing.
  • Yes you are correct. 1 cup is 8oz. Don't you all have measuring cups at your house? The answer is printed there.....I say this with love!
  • You can do this! Don't eat anything the kids are eating unless it contains less than 5 ingredients. I was eating same as my teenager and it is a recipe for disaster. My body had a tantrum over the loss of chocolate type items and then calmed down. I know what you mean about the roller coaster! Hang in there!:smile:
  • I' m here too! Hang in!
  • Beware the restaurants! I was shocked to see the calories in my food at Rubios and at Applebees. I thought I was being so healthy. I always check before I order now.
  • I just opened my diary. I didn't know it was closed! Feel free to look! I think I eat healthy mostly balance meals. I substituted cereal for ice cream years ago, and that is why it falls under snacks.
  • I think you have a right to be big time proud of yourself. I too was a Starbucks frequenter. I have dropped my sugary drinks for just as good unsweetened beverages. AND I don't get pastry any more. I just look at the case and tell myself, you can miss dinner or have that! Good girl!
  • Well hello! One day a time is how I go.. Every day is a new day and I have learned to be more patient with myself. I have started cutting up apples and veggies so I can go to work with snacks ready to go. Other wise I eat bad things. I also have been surprised at some of the food I thought was healthy. I look up food on…
  • Cucumber, cherry tomato, baby organic carrots, sweet peppers, apples, sliced mango, grapes, clementines...throw some slivered almonds in with your steamed veggies or cook in the wok with some ginger...
  • Check out Sparkling Ice too. It's 0 calories and it's flavored sparkling water. Yummy!
  • Don't do the DEW! : )
  • Give up the soda! I have bought soda for the house in about 4 years. My daughter is 14 and she was guzzling it. Very unhealthy. Think of it as sugar in a glass! It's also hard on your stomach. My friend introduced my to a product called 'Sparkling Ice'. It's fizzy comes in lots of flavors and it's 0 calories, but tastes…
  • Oh no! Thank you! Will see doctor if new shoes don't fix it. I plan to buy some nice shoes for work in August. I really think part of the trouble is cheap shoes I use at work. I wear my nice running shoes when not at work and it seems to have helped with the problem. I also started taking glucosamine and I think that is…
  • You got to move it! Move it! Don't get down just keep burning those carbs! Go girl go!

  • Good advice. Shoes these days just aren't made right for me. I have a high arch. Thank you!
  • How do you keep your 'taters? Do you bake the potatoes and then keep them in the fridge? I love sweet potatoes!
  • Oh man! Now I am hungry too! I think that sounds marvelous. I love anything with avocados! I also like the ready made pancake ideas! Thank you!
  • Oh goodie! Active people! Hi all! I am still here forever tenacious! I am pleased to say my goal was to move more than I have been. I did that and found I ate less and felt better. Yippee! How are you all doing out there!

  • I like what you have written in your ticker! Good advice, we are all princesses after all!
  • Hello! to everyone! I too am tired of the extra weight and have just started to get used to logging my food, and then using this site to figure out what's for dinner. It's been tough because our food budget is small and I have a teen in the house. But! I am doing much much better and I really think my taste buds and body…
  • I want to thank everyone for their positive and encouraging posts! You all lifted me up! It's only 10am and this day has not gone well for me, but I feel better now at least about the dieting! Thank you also for the website list above! Will check it out. --- I have started by trying to eat food with ingredients I recognize…
  • The only thing I have been told to do about plantar f. is to run a tennis ball under your foot, like when you are sitting to massage adn relax your foot. I will ask around. Check your shoes too are your shoes good or is the support breaking down?
  • Is popcorn allowed?
  • So funny! Just before I read the last post I had some dried apricots with almonds! Thank you for the info. I guess my body knew what it wanted! I eat as you said! I just watch the portions on the nuts because they are so high in calories.
  • Go weigh in so you can congratulate yourself later this month! Do not beat yourself over the head about the number! : )
  • It's OK! We are after all just human. Each day is a new day so start again. Next time you feel like binging ask yourself what is it I am seeking? salt? comfort? Grab a bag of carrots or some grapes. Make sure you have stuff cut up so if you can just grab something when you feel like eating. I went through a withdrawal of…
  • what about seedless cucumbers (english) or red, yellow or green peppers?
