Definitely trying these. Thanks for the recipe.

Tried a new chili recipe which was very good. Sort of a tex mex chili.

Thanks for the link. I love both seafood and tacos. Sent the recipe to my sister.

Thanks for the recipie. Will be definitely making it!

I so want one of these. Salted caramel has become my best friend!

I was diagnosed with clinical depression 10 yrs. ago and could barely get out of bed most days let alone work out. I was on Effexor in the beginning but it really wasn't helping and started my weight gain. I was switched to Fluoxetine (Prozac) after a breakdown years ago and finally started seeing my depression lift. Even…

I measure once the food is cooked as many things, especially veggies shrink during cooking.

I take Lyrica and have definitely seen a difference fore the good. Was in almost constant pain before being prescribed it. Unfortunately it only helps in alleviating the pain and not the chronic fatigue.

I used to be addicted to Diet Coke too. I would sometimes drink two or three cans a day. I didn't quite cold turkey but made the decision to stop buying it to keep at home and only drank it when I went out for lunch or dinner. Instead, I started drinking Crystal Light at home as I don't like the taste of plain water. Some…

I have fibromyalgia and know EXACTLY what she is going through in terms exercise. Most days I barely have enough energy to get out of bed and actually function throughout the day let alone try and work out. Although fibromyalgia is not a death sentence it can wreck havoc on you both physically and emotionally. So right now…

Try the recipie from Campbell's Soup. I use low fat sour cream and tex mex cheese and they are really good.

I eate some sort of cheese almost every day. It's not only delicious but a small amount can be quite filling.

I met my partner of over 5 years on lavalife.com as well as brother and sister in-law and my old neighbour and his wife. I would recommend online dating to anyone who doesn't have a lot of options to meet people. Just make sure you go in with a strong skin and not take rejections too personally. I went on numerous first…

Canadian eh? Born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario but have called Cobden my home for the past 4 1/2 years. It's a tiny village 1 1/2hrs. west of Ottawa.

Started at size 23/24 and am now wearing size 15/16. Did a purge of clothes last fall which I gave away to Value Village (similar to Goodwill) and have a few more bags again. Any time I have needed smaller sized jeans I have bought them used as I see no point in spending money for brand new ones while I am still loosing…

I record my weight loss on Fridays but also weigh myself Mondays in case I overdue it on the weekends.

I like Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives, Chopped, Eat Streets and You've Gotta Eat Here which is Canadian. Yay.

I had RNY surgery over 6 months ago and it was the BEST decision I ever made. Due to health problems and the medication I had to go on I gained over 100lbs. I was actually told by the doctor at the weight loss clinic that no amount of exercise or diet would rid the weight. I di much research on my own and went to all the…

Had RNY 6 1/2 months ago and have lost 86lbs. I stalled in Feb. for almost a month which is quite normal with surgery. Got some advice about lowering my carb intake and it did the trick. I cut out bread, rice, potatoes, pasta at most of my meals and the weight has started coming off again. Hope this helps and good luck.

Was diagnosed with fibro in '08. Have tourette's syndrome and battled clinical depression as well. Gained loads of weight from all the meds and finally had gastric bypass surgery in Sept. '12. Even though I have seen the weight come off with a careful diet, I still struggle daily with chronic fatigue and pain which makes…

I had RNY Sept. '12 and don't regret one single second of it despite the fact that it is a daily struggle to not put the weight back on. Like many people who have had weight loss surgery, it isn't just about eating less and exercising more. I had always been a little on the heavy side but saw my weight balloon a number of…

Born and raised in Ottawa but last 4 1/2 years living in Cobden, a small village west of Ottawa.

Premeir protein shake 160 calories 3g fat 5g carbohydrates 3g fibre 1g sugar 30g protein Costco has the best price with a case of 18 drinks costing $28 or $29.

We love their salmon. Also get the following there: Kirkland almonds Premier protein shakes and bars Saputo low fat cheese strings Diva's delightful crisps Kashi go lean crunch Chicken tortilla soup Coconut oil - virgin cold pressed So much cheaper than in grocery, bulk or health food stores!

Glad to see another gal from my side of the world!
