  • Well, I don't have a recipe available. However, My husband LOVES pizza and so we found a way to get our regular Pizza recipe down to 400 calories for 2 slices or 1/4th of the pizza. (and eating 1/4th of a pizza at a time is a pretty reasonable amount.) Anyway the biggest thing we did was with the crust. We buy Walmart -…
  • I've got a couple that the whole family can enjoy. When I was dieitng (I'm pregnant now and not dieting) I was trying to keep all my meals at 400 calories or less so here are two YUMMY healthy recipes at less than 400 calories a serving while getting to eat a healthy amount. Chicken Tetrazzini Raw Chicken 1.25 Lb Fresh…
  • I would suggest going for a nice long walk, Then you can eat back the calories you burned. So boredom fixed for a while PLUS you get to have a snack after. Also, Make sure to drink a big glass of water after your walk, it will help you feel less hungry and make your snack fill you up more.
  • If you are OK with Spinach its very easy to substitute FRESH spinach for the lettuce. For some odd toppings that go very well with the spinach you can try Fresh Blueberries, or almonds with all your fresh veggies! Here is my Salad recipe, If your interested. The only thing in it you may have a problem with is the Lettuce,…
  • ~ I love cold food... Like Pizza, Stromboli, Turkey... Fried chicken... All tastes better cold. ~ I have to have chopsticks to eat sweet and sour chicken, because dipping it in the sauce with a fork just doesn't work as well. ~ I add less water to my Ramen noodles soup, so it doesn't have any extra water just the noodles…
  • Don't feel guilty about eating chocolate. Everything is fine in the right portions, and there are even several studies saying chocolate is GOOD for you. You can however switch to dark chocolate witch gives more benefits with less sugar. My personal favorite treat is Andes mints, they have only 25 calories each! If you are…
  • Skip the Ranch Dressing and use the calories you save to put Fresh BACON in the salad. Yum... bacon. Seriously, I have a awesome salad recipe, with tons of vegetables eggs, bacon, cheese. I can eat TWO large bowls for 400 calories! I don't even use the 'bacon bit' things but literally cook fresh bacon to put in, put enough…
  • My boyfriend and I were driving home. On our way home a person stops in front of us, to make a left turn. He stops because there is a car coming from the other direction making his turn unsafe. So we stop behind him and wait. A speed demon behind us, speeds past trying to pass both of us. That driver nearly avoids a head…
  • Pigs are actually incredible animals. While I won't deny that pigs roll around in mud... Name a animal that doesn't roll around in mud... or some form of dirt. Pigs themselves are incredibly smart and can be trained like Dogs, To come, sit ,stand... beg. My dad raised pigs for a long time, they were always fun to have…
  • Breastfeeding is better than using formula. Yes, babies survive on formula, but they are no longer recommending it. Think about this, You have Maple syrup, and Imitation Maple syrup. One is natural, the sap from trees, the other is from corn starch. Real Maple syrup is rich and full of flavor, yet thin, Imitation, has less…
  • Congrats on your engagement! Also, good luck on your weight loss, and future family plans! Your sister is a bridezilla, in the worst kind. That being said, I won't actually advise you to leave the wedding party. Its your sister. I would attend anything for my brother no matter what kinda fit he thew, so I completely…
  • Ramen noodles. Egg Drop Soup. I think I'm craving salt, that could be because I'm pregnant, or because I've been on a low salt diet for the past 5 years. (hubby doesn't need all the salt)
  • I would not get it re-sized until you are done loosing weight. The process of resizing them adds strain on the metal so you don't want to do it often, but once you are at maintenance you should go ahead and get it done! Until then, Take some tape and wrap it around the underside of the ring, this will make it fit more snug…
  • I don't believe you HAVE to meet your calorie goal. Some days you just aren't as hungry as others, and a little more deficit on one day means a little bit more weight lost. I was set on a 1600 calorie goal, but didn't worry about hitting it... I counted it as my 'max' ... I did however Make 100% sure I netted over 1200…
  • I'm glad someone asked this question, I'm quite curious about the topic too... I keep telling my husband that once I'm done having kids; I want one. He doesn't like the idea of the surgery... but I'm 5ft6' and I've never been smaller than a DD (in high school). I was at a 42 DDD, But now that I lost a bit of weight and…
  • I don't believe you have to eat back all your exercise calories. Tho the people above are right MFP is designed for you to not have to exercise at all to loose weight. However, I do believe if you don't want to focus on eating back all your exercise calories that you should set yourself a Low Calorie net Limit as well. I…
  • Chicken strips / Nuggets, Dipped in Mashed Potato's. Doritos, ON a Sub Sandwich. Broccoli and Cheese, on a Baked Potato. Tuna, Mushrooms, and Peas, In my Macaroni and Cheese. The last two might not be too weird.. but I think the combos are a little odd but so yummy. Edit : One more... Cucumber Dip: Cucumbers + Onion + Mayo…
  • Personally I feel exercising on a full stomach is bad, I for one always feel sick if I try to do so and end up doing half the exercise as I would on a empty stomach. So, I have always preferred to eat after exercise. I hate breakfast... I'm never hungry in the morning. My routine while loosing weight was to get up, give…
  • I don't think Sweatpants and a hoodie would look silly at all. In fact, When my brother was in Cross-Country in High School they had a 'cold weather' outfit that consisted of Sweat pants and a hoodie for those early morning runs. You'd see the entire team out running in them almost every morning, and any time during…
  • It is illegal to put ice cream on cherry pie in Kansas. O.o Lol
  • If you are already on a 1600 Calorie diet, and want to keep tracking everything during pregnancy, so you don't gain 70lbs. That is perfectly fine. Set your goal up 300-400 calories. To keep your daily calories between 1600 - 2000 a day, making sure not to go under 1600. That will keep you from gaining too much weight,…
  • I would definitely ask your doctor. If you are severely overweight they may let you loose some. However the general recommendation is to NOT loose weight during pregnancy. When I found out I was pregnant I upped my 1600 calorie diet to 2000. (I've kinda stopped paying attention to that but still). My midwife said that was…
  • How long have you been restricting your calories to 1200? Part of it may be that you are just trying to drop too many calories a day too fast. Perhaps trying for a goal of 1600 a day would allow you to loose weight, while not feeling like you have to eat all the time. Water is also a good suggestion, you won't feel as…
  • If you have bad knees and can't do the Lunges and squats. You can work on strengthening them with water aerobics. Walking in the water, or even trying those lunges and squats in shallower water. Working those muscles up should allow you to do more later out of the water. Working with bad joints in water is great because…
  • I love the Chiropractor. My mother has chronic back pain, and herniated dics. The Chiropractor eases her pain substantially. That chiropractor also Helped coach my brother into how to get into the Navy... with scoliosis. I also had a problem with a knee injury that after one year in physically rehab and a Second year of…
  • This might seam odd... But you can also 'hide them'... because honestly... No one said we had to eat vegetables as a main dish... My mother did that to her kids... cousins... even friends over... None of them notice. What you do, is you cut them up as small as possible and put them in foods you normally eat. Once you start…
  • I love pop... Coka-Cola is my addiction. My mom was addicted to it... then I was addicted to it... and at my max... I was drinking a full 2 Liter a day... (yikes) So... I started to kick my addiction by switching to Cans first, because they are prepackaged in individual servings... and Only putting Two in the fridge at a…
  • I thought I would post something for the relationship. Since everyone here seams to be dissing even the Idea. I met my husband over a Online video game. In 2006. I was 18. We were friends for two years, during that time, I moved out of my parents, got my own apartment, worked a factory Job, Payed for college on my own, I…
  • In my opinion... all the dresses are too similar. All of these Dresses are a box, and the exact same knee length. Personally, I think you would look really nice in a Dress with a fitted waist, not the 'right under the bust' line but a actual waist; And perhaps a flowing skirt rather than a pencil. For pattern, The darker…
