Don't deny yourself what you want but saying that don't pig out on it all the time either just have a bite to satisfy the craving.There are things that I thought I couldn't do without and now when I do have it either it satisfies me or I realize that it's not as good as I thought it was. Have you ever tried Kellogg's…

I'm doing the Herbalife shakes right now. I do two a day and most days I get a balanced meal for my third along with two snacks. I also take a multivitamin with every meal. Taking vitamins in smaller doses is easier on you, keeps them in your system. Drinking lots of water helps too. I'm finding that when I was mapping out…

That is AMAZING. Something like that keeps you going knowing that other people see the results we fail to see ourselves. Thanks for sharing. I have been bigger most of my life so I know the feeling thinking that I NEED the bigger sizes. Just to share I recently had a similar experience buying a dress for my daughters…

Sounds interesting. Not sure about the pickles spears though but I'll try it.

Made the Cheesy Baked Spaghetti Squash Boats with Grilled Chicken tonight. I LOVE IT! My hubby had bought what I thought was medium/large squash so cut them in half after I had the finished product. Because we cut them in half to share I scrapped mine out of the boat and lightly mixed it together. I WILL be making this…

Thanks for the recipes. Keep them coming. I have seen a few recipes on the skinnytaste site today. The look delicious. Showed the pics to my family and they agree. Gonna try one of the recipes later today. Not sure which one. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Sounds good. Let us know how it turns out.

Saving for later. Thanks

That sounds good. I LOVE pasta and it's been hard staying away from it. Now I can have my pasta and veggies.

There is an AWESOME recipe that I love from Hungry Girl. It's called Apple Pie Oatmeal Bonanza. The entire recipe is 258 calories,6g fr, 364mg sodium, 44.5g carbs, 7g fiber, 8.5g sugar, 6g protein. 1/2 cup old-fashioned oats 1/2 cup chopped apple 1 tablespoon sugar-free pancake syrup 1 teaspoon fat-free non-dairy powdered…

looks amazing!

Sounds good. Thanks for sharing. Could you use spaghetti squash in there?

Yum and it looks calorie worthy.

Cotton balls. I hate the feel of them. Gives me the heebie jeebies!!!

Just turned 49 January 25th. Wanting to lose 70-90 lbs. Anyone feel free to add me.

Looks so much better than my lean cuisine meals. LOL

WOW congratulations. You look FABULOUS! Thanks for the motivation.

Love this. Thanks for posting!

Monroe, Michigan! It's between Detroit, Michigan and Toledo, Ohio.

Welcome I've been here for 25 days tomorrow. I live in Monroe. I LOVE Michigan love to watch the seasons change. But keep the snow and ice on the trees and bushes and out from under my feet. LOL. Feel free to add me. We're on this journey together. Lisa:flowerforyou: ...

Could you use Kale instead of spinach?

Great topic. I'm visiting my mom in Florida but gonna find the weights when I get back to Michigan.

My usual is ham or turkey sammie on 35 cal a slice bread with mustard. Sensible portions veggie chips, fat free tapioca pudding, water. Then for snacks celery, kelloggs pastry crisps brown sugar and cinnamon. I just discovered the flatout origanal white flatbread. I will be eating more of that.

Your doing this for YOU. I am an emotional eater so when my hubby starts acting up I have learned to ignore him. Walk away and take the crisps with you. I tell him I love him but he is not helping me any. Tell him how you want him to help you either by do you really want to eat that, is that something that you should…

When my youngest daughter was pregnant I was waiting for her at the Dr's office. A show came on to help with school lunches. The lady took a wrap spread some pb on it then a banana. Roll it up like a enchilada. I was actually really good and filling. Haven't tried it with counting calories though so I don't know the counts.

We can never have too many friends. I had been meaning to join for a year and finally decided to just do it. I have a 15 month old grand daughter that I would love to be able to get down on the floor and play with (then get back up) and be around to watch her grow up. It's time for a change and I'm not going back. I've…

I'll be 49 in 12 days. Can I fit in? LOL Figure I'm close enough. I want to lose 70-90lbs. I've been on for 9 days and love MFP. I kept meaning to join for a year and never did. Guess this is my year. Ready to give support. We're on this journey together. Lisa

I want to lose 70-90lbs. I've been on for 9 days and lost 9.8lbs so far. Good Lord how many calories was I eating. LOL. Anyone feel free to add me. We're on this journey together. Lisa

I'm a 9 day newbie. LOL I want to lost 70-90lb. Wanting to make it this time and it be my new way of life. I have met a lot of new friends on here that have already given me a lot of support as well as giving in return. I'll send a friend request. I always say you can't have too many friends. There is usually a friend on…

Congratulations! It is a great achievement. :flowerforyou: I've been here for 9 days and LOVE MFP. Anyone feel free to add me. We're on this journey together. Lisa
