  • Certain oils act as appetite suppressants. Others are metabolism boosters.
  • Whey is the only one that came back from the dairy, but we were advised to avoid all dairy. She didn't have issues before with obvious symptoms, but we are doing this to treat ADHD among some other issues. I got excited when I saw lactose free on the shredded mozzarella bag. We were going to let her have cheese and butter,…
  • I am also a binger (sp?), but I find myself doing that when I am alone. If I keep myself busy or have people around me, I generally have more control. You are not alone!!
  • I will have to try these. Just like Totinos pizza rolls only healthier. I just realized my daughters would probably enjoy these with ham and cheese or chicken and cheese. I didn't realize the wrappers were so versatile at only about 60 cals per wrapper.
  • My bra's have been fitting better, too! :-)
  • My hubby doesn't like "healthy" food, so that's okay...more for me!! Next time I make them I am going to back off on the cayenne pepper, Of course, if I do that, I may end up eating more than just two at a time. :-)
  • I missed dinner tonight and had to eat something although it was already late. I took two of these from the freezer, wrapped them in paper towels and stuck them in the microwave for a minute and a half. They hit the spot and I dont feel guilty for eating them so late! :-) I only have three left in the freezer. Time to make…
  • Thanks Newfiedan. I guess I will have to get some more fresh mushrooms at the grocery store tomorrow!
  • I love the sunshine! The doctor told me that the sun these days isn't as effective as it was years ago due to atmospheric concerns. I'm ALWAYS outside in the spring, summer, and fall.
  • So the vitamin D comes in a liquid form? I was really worried about the size of the pills. I have difficulty swallowing pills and have to take 50,000 units to get started. Also, thanks for the mushroom suggestion. I LOVE mushrooms. We cook them with peppers and onions and add them to sausage, spaghetti, and love them on…
  • Mine is low as well. I was just put on 50,000 units of Vitamin D once a week, but haven't filled my prescription yet. I'm looking for ways of incorporating this into my diet. I currently drink 1-2 cups of nonfat milk daily, but some days I don't drink any since I don't like to drink my calories. I usually drink milk if I…
  • You could probably just bake them at 375 until they begin to turn golden brown. I froze my egg rolls and actually thought they tasted better reheated. Try them, you'll like them!
  • Good Luck to you! You are off to a great start! I, too, have a long road ahead of me, with 160 pounds to lose to reach my goal weight. You can do this!!
  • I made these yesterday. They are tasty... I wish my hubby would share them with me. I put them in the freezer tonight. Hopefully they are just as good reheated. Also, to those of you with a 'decent' oven, 10 minutes under the broiler (on one side) is a bit too much. Keep an eye on them. Of course, maybe I just had mine too…
  • I have 100 calorie TastyKake Sensables finger cakes. It makes me feel like I am indulging. My children have been eating my Fiber One bars! The 90 calorie chocolate on chocolate is their favorite!
  • I didn't blend the blueberries but I'll try that with the strawberries and banana. I love fruit!
  • I make my own simple sauce for pulled pork. We just made it tonight for dinner. It is simply aproximately 1 cup ketchup and 1/2 cup brown sugar and a dash of vinegar. If the sugar content is an issue, you could use the artifical brown sugar sweetener. I once made regular hamburger BBQ for my diabetic father with the…
  • Can you freeze angelfood cake? My husband doesn't eat angelfood cake nor pineapples, but I LOVE pineapple upside down cake. I don't want to waste them but I don't want to eat them all either. Do they freeze okay?
  • I LOVE zucchini!! I will have to try these!! Thanks!
  • I took the Depo shot years ago and gained 50 pounds in 9 months. I finally said enough is enough and stopped taking it. My doctor was already on me about my weight (then at 205 pounds). 50 pounds later, I decided to read the insert and it said 3% would experience significant weight gain. After going off the shot, I…
