Wow, our group is now at 418 members. A sure sign that everyone is getting down to business with summer being over. I am so glad to hear from you Babeinthemoon. Hopefully with your husband joining you in CTL, he will stop brining in the chips. I know there are no excuses and we are our own to control, but it does make it…

So glad to hear from you. Sorry to hear about the headaches. Those are terrible. You have strong will and a wonderful heart. Make sure to take care of yourself and hang in there. I agree, I do my best when I am well organized and have my meals planned out ahead of time too. Take Care

No problem. It takes time to used to. Good luck!

I find weight loss to be a bit of a rollercoaster too. Some weeks I loose nothing, the next I'll even be up a pound or two which frustrates me to almost throwing in the towel, but then the next I'll be down 5lbs. So, thru all the frustrations its still positive movement if you look at in on a monthly basis. My body doesn't…

Welcome to the group Nancy. I basically do the same as acahane. My meals are usually a little higher calorie count than my snacks. Not too much though. I usually try to bulk up more with my meals. Such as: for breakfast I will have a toasted English muffin with 1/2 cup egg whites-which makes enough for the sandwich and…

I am so sorry to hear of your accident. I hope your husband is healing well. I just wanted to let you know that I wish you well and that you are missed. Take care of yourself and your family :smile:

Well, today is my first weigh in. WOW! down 5 pounds. Holly Cow! I know it won't keep up at this pace, but what a motivator for the next week. Does anyone have any thoughts on what to expect over the next few weeks? Is there a pattern? It looks to me, that everyone loses pretty good in the first couple weeks then stall out…

I'm sure that with your slingshot week over, you will start to see numbers down again. Hang in there, your doing great!

Hi Ladies. Shot in the dark here. I've looked between Kingston and Peterborough area and can't find the spray butter anywhere. Does anyone know where or which grocery chain sells it? Thanks again. Christine. I haven't had a cheat day yet, so I really can't say how I'll feel. But like you, I have had years of food issues,…

Very helpful. Thanks for all the information. You guys are great!!!!

I try to log mine the night before. And edit as I go. This way when I wake up in the morning, I don't have to worry too much about what I'm going to eat and if there is anything to prepare, I can do some in advance or at least know what my day is going to look like. It also helps me 'clean' out the fridge. I plan some of…

I really don't notice the cauliflower taste when I add it into recipies. But I like cauliflower. My daughter (18) doesn't, and she can't stand it when I make cauliflower 'mashed potatoes'. I love them and so does my husband. We can't believe how good they are. I don't think that I wouldh've known they were made out of…

Me too!!! This looks great! Can't wait to try it! I'm not going to tell my family what its made of, and see what they say.?? I'll bet you, they won't believe me. Thank you so much for sharing your photo.

Thanks Chistine.

I use the GNC brand. Its the whey GNC ProPerformance-dbl choc.royale. I buy it in the large tubs, which go on sale all the time. And if you buy a GNC membership card you get another 20% off your purchase. And as you would know, if you already have a membership, you get 20% off your purchase for the first 7 days of every…

Hi Christine. Good for you!!!!!! Down even though you were ill. WTG!! I'm curious about a few of your recipies. If you don't mind......what is your broccoli puree? Is it like a soup?? Do you have a recipe for it? also, how do you make your turkey burgers. I love preplanning and being organized too. Sherrie

Thank you so much.:happy:

Thanks for the advise. Yes, after I posted my question, I did find Babeinthemoons post of her ratios. All the information I can get is appreciated. Ya, I know, following the portions and ratios should be enough to keep on track, but as my husband puts it, "i am very particular and an All-for-nothing kinda person". When I…

His domain is now fixed.

Morning Ladies. Question for you....Does anyone know if CTL has a rough beakdown ratio of Carbs to Fats to Protien??? For example: if you are on a HCD your ratios should be around C-55% P-35% and Fats no more than 10% for the day. Same for the LCD C-no more than 20% Protiens 50% and Fats 30%. Just for examples. Does anyone…

Thanks for the welcome. Its a relief to have support.

Sounds Great!!! I'd love a copy. I'll send you my email too! Thanks.

Hi. I would love to have this list. However, when I try enter any of Chris Powells websites, including this one, it comes up with this on GoDaddy.com, "NOTICE: This domain name expired on 01/20/2013 and is pending renewal or deletion.". Is there another site name I could use to get this list, or if you can get into it,…

Hi Ladies. Today is my first day. I'm so glad I found you. Its a real boost to hear how everyone is doing and their successes. I can't wait to say "my meal at Wendys wasn't that good", or ' I couldn't even finish a whole sub, I was full and satisfied on half". I'm still fumbling with the meals but hopefully I'll get the…

Thanks for all the posts and ideas. There are alot of great ideas on this site :)

This sounds really good. I'll have to try it out! Thanks.
