  • My daughter is doing WW right now and she is in Chicago and I'm in Tennessee. I signed up online for a month because I thought it would be fun to to do it together. One week of the freestyle program was enough for me. Too punishing for anything that is not a zero point food. I like the simplicity of CICO .
  • I had my gall bladder out 25 years ago - never heard this , never had any problems with fruits and vegetables. High fats can cause minor problems for me.
  • I've eaten at Raza's - it 's great!!!!
  • Lots of my favorites have already been mentioned but I don't think I saw the lemon squares. They are in the freezer section - one square is 80 calories and satisfies my desire for a sweet treat. On a non-food note, the glucosamine tablets for dogs are very reasonably priced.
  • Set realistic goals - slow and steady wins the race.
  • I'm going to Folly Beach, SC, for a week the end of the month, staying at a house right on the ocean. My plan is to bump up my calorie count to the maintenance number, eat out 1 meal a day so the other two I can track fairly accurately , log my food the best I can, and enjoy myself. No plans to lose that week but am going…
  • Mashed avocado instead of mayo in chicken or tuna salad.
  • Every day - it helps me understand fluctuations and know that if it shows 2 pounds more after a night out it is not a real weight gain.
  • HAHA - I had a Reese's peanut butter egg for breakfast. Why do they taste better when shaped like eggs, Christmas trees or pumpkins? When out to lunch and had barbecued ribs and french fries, but only ate half of the half slab ordered. Ended up only 50 calories over for the day, but I may have under-logged the restaurant…
  • Trader Joe's has tortillas that are a blend of corn and wheat - the best of both worlds!
  • I buy wild caught salmon, tuna, cage free eggs, organic milk, Greek yogurt, bread, hummus - I think I come away with some pretty healthy stuff. Their organic gala apples have a great flavor. They have a nice assortment of frozen vegetables, some organic. Some of their canned goods are BPA free - corn, beans, tomatoes and…
  • Here are mine: http://pinterest.com/susanpasq/hey-it-s-healthy/ http://pinterest.com/susanpasq/healthy-choices/ (I also have a board called "decadently delectable" - Not a healthy eating board!!)
  • Dark chocolate covered almonds from Trader Joe's or Trader Joe's 100 calorie dark chocolate bars. Also from Trader Joe's, their frozen lemon bars (I'm going to take one out of the freezer right now to have after lunch!)
  • Mile #1 accomplished today.
  • Hi, I'm quite a bit over 50 (62 to be exact). I 've been lurking around these boards and today I decided it was time to be an active participant. I started out with weight watchers on line and while I think it is a great program, I have gotten more interested in nutrition and want to see how my fats, carbs, protein, and…
  • I'll give it a try. I'm just going to aim for 30 this month and see how it goes. Hopefully, I'll increase it next month. Snow on the ground outside today so I think I'll dust off my Lesley Sansone. I've been lurking around these boards for several weeks and this is my first post.
