  • I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I can;t agree more with this. I got Mono from work because someone decided they knew they had it and it was still okay to come to work - and it DRAINED me completely for six weeks. Unfortunately your body needs rest. If you really want some type of workout I highly recommend checking…

  • My husband is EXTREMLEY picky and has an issue with most vegetables and good eating habits so I do my best to introduce things slowly. For example he has trouble eating tomatoes but in chili he loves tomatoes so I add extra in place of other things. For me I have to add them in creative ways. Textures can be a big deal or…

  • I am the same way..it's rough isn't it ? I have found Skinny Cow Heavenly crisp bars are a wonderful alternative to the full fledged candy bar route. At about 110 calories per bar they are sweet and light but just enough to take the edge off. They have a variety pack at Costco I highly recommend. I also enjoy nutella with…

  • Right now I am going through my stock of lean cusine turkey breast with cinamon apples..lol. But other days I will take leftovers with some greek yogurt , Skinny Cow heavenly crisp bars ( Costo sells a variety pack..very yummy!) or fresh fruit like an apple or some grapes.

  • MUST TRY THIS!! I think even my husband could eat them..thank you !
    in Zucchini Tots - so good! Comment by astylla February 2013
  • I started with Sparkpeople.com videos on Youtube. Great variety of wokouts and you can use household items to do different things. There is always an excuse we can make to not get healthy but in the end we have to want it enough to make it happen. Good luck!

  • Have you tried Dr. Pepper TEN ? It's actually quite good and a great alternative for that treat.

  • I don't agree with the idea of cheat qand splurge days. I think it is better to not deny yourself than to go overboard once a week. For example having that one slice of chocolate cake will not undo all your work as long as you temper it with good habits/excercise reguarly. My weakness is sugar and soda. I cheat this by…

  • I second the D-Lights sandwiches. I will not eat them everyday but about once or twice a week and my favorites are the whole wheat bagel or the french toast griddler - just amazing and fills me up quickly! My other go to snacks are whole wheat english muffins with about a teaspoon of nutella or non fat Greek yogurt.
    in Needing Morning Break food ideas Comment by astylla February 2013
  • I took logging VERY seriously do not cheat at all. It's important to be hoenst with yourself and for me it makes me second guess picking up that soda versus a bottle of water or choosing my portions carefully. I don't deprive myself I just make better choices. I choose rice snacks over potato chips. I drink flavored zero…

    in 9lbs during week 1! Comment by astylla February 2013
  • My husband and I joined a gym last Sunday one that was right by both of our jobs ( we work about 10 mins from each other) so we have no excuses not to work out 5 days a week. I have battled my weight all my life and have always felt like going to a gym was not going to work for me..I was scared. I was worried what people…
