I've been wondering the exact same thing. I love buying pre-packaged frozen salmon filets from the grocery store, but the calories in olive oil are extreme. I've seen Olive Oil Pam spray in the grocery store that has virtually no calories, I wonder if that would work when pan searing fish? I might try it when I go shopping…

I just stayed in Grand Rapids a few weeks ago....I like the area!

Congratulations!!!!!

Another question: If I were to consider using weights instead of bands, what size weights should I purchase? I found one set that are adjustable for 4-24 pounds per weight. Would that be enough for a male?

That was my biggest worry, if they were just going to say how much I should be lifting I wouldn't know what the conversion would be for resistance bands. Knowing that they go over how to use bands for each workout is great. Thanks for your help!

That's fantastic! I'm going to start referring to that principle! :)

One of my coworkers did some kind of 12 days only lemon and syrup fast (I thought it was weird!) and she completely lost her taste in red meat and pizza. I consider that a win!

Thanks for all the support and friend requests! I hope to see everyone around! :) I weighed in this morning and for the first time in years I am 269 lbs!! I am so excited, I am a full 1/2 month ahead of schedule.

I am the exact same way - I sometimes have a hard time falling asleep at all. Occasionally, I have used Unisom on nights that I absolutely need to have a good sleep, but I don't like relying on them. Usually, I make myself a TAZO "Calm" tea before I go to bed and it does the trick. I found out that if I have slight noise…

I don't know if this has already been mentioned or not, but I love making my own healthier egg mcmuffins in the morning. I bought a $30 toaster from "back to basics" on amazon and it actually toasts the English muffin and poaches the egg at the same time! A tasty 170 calorie sandwich is the result, which is also very…

Thank you! I can't wait to try these!

I've been recently eating 3oz of baby carrots (that's quite a handful ) and dipping them in 2 tablespoons of lite bleu cheese or lite Caesar dressing. It's a delicious snack with only about 100 calories.

You look great! Way to go!

I went to the movies with a friend - and did not take a single bite of popcorn. Throwing out a full bag of popcorn feels a lot better than regretting it in the future.

When I finally came to the realization that reaching one large weight loss goal is not the only victory - there are many, many smaller victories on the way. I realized that it wasn't as daunting as I thought, when you look at it that way. Every other time I tried to lose weight, I have failed and given up. Setting the…

I do. Thanks for posting the vid, I definitely needed this today. ;)

Excellent, I'll have to try those out! Thanks a lot!

Welcome! Good luck with your weight loss goal, you can do it!!!!!!
