I have been buying the Dannon Light greek blends. They are non-fat and they taste great. I usually add 1 teaspoon of cacoa nibs and 1/2 cup of granola to mine and mix it up. That way I get the protein and the crunchy so I feel like I'm "eating"

I have in the past used cottage cheese on a salad (instead of adding dressing). I usually eat my cottage cheese now with sunflower seeds or pistachio's added.

I had my gastric sleeve surgery on 12/31/12. I don't regret it one bit. I am down 114 pounds since before my surgery and 91 pounds since surgery.

Those who have the FitBit, (I've read through the posts) is the fitbit accurate as far as calories burned?

What an amazing story and transformation you have achieved. You are an inspiration! Thank you for sharing :)

red meat an average American eats in a year.

Not saying this would help, but maybe if you had a list of goal weights and things you could reward yourself with. Doesn't have to be anything outrageous. I have friends who when they reach a goal, they might get a tattoo.. or some get a pedicure. It's hard work to stay motivated and on track and I think that if we give…

Fantastic job!! You look great!

I LOVE the Quest bars. I like most of them. Not fond of the mixed berry, chocolate peanut butter and the cinnamon roll. I haven't tried the new flavor (white chocolate raspberry)

Here's an easy and delicious chicken meal... 1/2 cup parmesan cheese 1 cup Greek yogurt -plain (I use non fat) 1 tsp garlic powder 1 1/2 tsp seasoning salt 1/2 tsp pepper Spread mixture over chicken breasts, bake at 375 degrees for 45 mins--

I've become quite fond of fat free greek yogurt (flavor doesn't matter) and I've sometimes added fresh fruit (1/4 cup blueberries..or you could probably use any type of fruit you like) and I've added 1/2 cup of Kashi high protein cereal and I've also added 1/4 cup Kellogs Bran Buds cereal (not at the same time of course)…

One hundred pounds is quite an accomplishment. I've lost over 100 pounds myself and I am struggling with the same issue(s) that you are. I still see myself as being huge. I know I am, but I'm not as huge as I once was. I try to focus on where I'm at and not where I want to be. Good luck on your weight loss. You can do it!!…

Instead of chips try roasted almonds or sunflower seeds.

I'm definitely going to save this recipe. I'm thinking once or twice a year wouldn't be so horrible.

I LOVE them!! I've tried almost all of them and I do say that the ones I've tried I do like. I just got mail today from GNC (where I buy them at) and there is a NEW flavor!! Can't wait to try it!

Well done! You look GREAT, by the way!! :)

Congrats on the progress you've made so far.

Thank you! :happy:

HELP!! How do I add a photo to a post? My kitty, Buddy, says "Show me off, Mama!" :)

I've lost a 2 month old horse and a human head :) Can't wait to lose more "stuff"!

Wonderful job!! You look great, by the way! :)

My biggest downfall is potato chips... Even buying the fat free Ruffles... I thought I could limit myself.. HA! Not bloody likely... :(

Thank you for the protein shake recipe. I usually stick with protein bars for breakfast (I'm so not a breakfast person). Will definitely give that a try. :) OMG!! YES!! Quest bars are the BEST!! My favorite is the Apple Pie. But I like the others too. Even the chocolate chip (those have 21g protein)

I can honestly say that last year I moved from Indiana to Tennessee.. When I went to get my new TN driver's license, I decided that I was going to come "clean" and be honest with my weight on my driver's license. What a surprise when I get my new license and my weight is NOT listed on it! (Indiana licenses have a weight on…

Great snacks to take on the road.... Protein bars, nuts (almonds, peanuts, sunflower seeds), When you stop to get gas, can also get a cheese stick (and sometimes they have hard boiled eggs)

"Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" Kept watching it HOPING that it would get better.... It didn't!

Fantastic job! Keep up the good work. You're looking great!!

Well done! You look great.
