I forgot about the Fiber One trick. Wheat Germ is another option.

Don't forge the flour and milk that probably thickened the gravy.

It is an individual decision. I won't do them. For a couple of reasons. First, there is strong possibility it would set me up for derailment. If I do eat something I wouldn't normally eat (like going out for the kid's birthday and having pizza, I am physically ill. My stomach and intestines, not to mention my mind are…

Usually between 6:15 and 6:45 am. Prior to eating or drinking. Oh and must be in my undies. That's it.

They do make whole wheat panko bread crumbs. Ian's is the brand name I am aware of. http://www.iansnaturalfoods.com/breadcrumbs.html

The 97/3 ground beef or turkey is about the same. Give or take 10-20 calories. I think it would depend on the brand. I would get what is on sale and your family likes.

I take it you aren't going to PF Changs. But this link might give you some guidance. http://www.pfchangs.com/menu/NutritionalInfo.aspx

I would request steamed veggies, chicken. If they offer brown rice get that. Otherwise get a small portion of white rice. Personally I would be reluctant for stir fry because of the amount of oil they may use to stir fry. I am not sure of calorie content but I was thinking hot and sour or egg drop soup might not be too…

I agree. My stomach doesn't tolerate beef anymore.

Well it depends on what type of beef or ground turkey you are talking about. We don't eat ground beef anymore. I haven't bought in years. I get 93/7 ground turkey. They do have an even leaner ground turkey. Jenny O has an Extra Lean ground turkey that is 99% fat free. But that is more expensive in my area. So I buy ground…

Clean your ears too. :laugh:

I agree. You set the example. Unfortunately, we know your sister will crash. :(

Trail Mix and granola you would think are healthy. But not necessarily. You have to be careful of what is in them.

The only thing I will buy at Aldi is fruit and veggies, maybe ground turkey. I pretty much have not found anything else there to be what I consider healthy.

I weigh and record my weight each day.

The food processor jumps around a bit at first. But let it go and the frozen banana becomes a creamy consistency.

I have been at this a year now. Everyday I am still "I didn't know that!" :noway: :laugh:

Nope. that is incorrect. Fat is ABOVE the muscles. Muscle burns fat. Does that make sense?

Never mind. I see you don't want pasta type dishes. Sorry.

What about Tofu Shirataki? I had these the other day for the first time. I kid you not, they were awesome! I had the spaghetti version. http://www.house-foods.com/Tofu/tofu_shirataki.aspx

I agree with you! Well said!

I gave up diet soda early last summer. I am so glad I did!

I am not sure about the upping of the carbs when you work out. I would be more inclined to up my protein intake on those days. Not the carbs.

I would say 100 cal for 5 golf ball size potatoes. It is very confusing. LOL I know the little bitty potatoes you are talking about. Those are very yummy.

So since we are talking about frozen. Did you know you can make ice cream out of frozen bananas? All you need is a food processor.

Oh for gosh sake! I was being silly.

Cause you didn't ask. LOL

Bravo! Well said. :flowerforyou:

Probably golf ball size or a little bigger.

But what is the ounce or gram? I think the OP is taking about the tiny red potatoes. Not the larger red ones.
