If you take 1 small red potato and 1 cup steamed mashed cauliflower is only 70 calories. Just figure what you want to add to it and you are also getting your veggies. I do the same with sweet potatoes.

You look GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:flowerforyou:

Stupid Bold Party Blend Chex Mix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE that stuff. :mad:

Check this out and you can find the restaurant and what they serve with nutritional info. http://www.dwlz.com/restaurants.html

If I have drinks it is Limone soda with lime. (rum & club soda) Vodka works too with diet cranberry. Around 80 calories.

Awesome sauce!!!!! :smokin: What a GREAT post! This journey we are on is hard enough as it is without having to worry about "low carb", "low fat", "no fat", etc. I was putting SO much thought into what I should be doing it was driving me nuts! I believe the little changes we make define our road for success. Once we feel…

This is a great place to figure it out too! Then just fill in the nutritional values. http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp

I was wondering that too! I thought you wanted to burn the calories.

I have a problem with middle of night snack.... You would think after doing the 30 Day Shred AND my gazelle I would be too pooped to get up during the night. It's usually after about 2 hours of hard sleep. I just wake up and crave something. I have a glass of water next to my bed and drink that during the night when I feel…

Good Morning All! :flowerforyou: I would like to send my thoughts and prayers out to all that are out there caring for someone. It is not an easy road and I commend you for it. Both of my parents are gone and I miss them terribly. My mother was the most recent. (2 years ago) I would also like to thank everyone on MFP for…

Congrats on making that FINAL decision....I am 51 and totally understand the frustration. Check out the inspirational pics on the site....unbelievable! Makes me a believer that I WILL conquer this final quest! If you need someone to talk to feel free to contact me. We all need support and motivation and this site offers it…

I would like to know too please!!!!! I just did L1D1 and it totally kicked my butt!:bigsmile:

I have a purebread 2 year mini doxie male. His name is Ozzy (after Ozzy Osborne of course!). He is a black, brown and gray dapple. I had to put my 15 year old Ginger to rest 3 years ago and was devastated. I have had a dog all my life and was lost without one, but swore to never get another one. Well, after seeing his…

Hee hee.....what a pet THAT would be! :laugh: And thanks...didn't even think to check out the website. DUH! :blushing:

So today I started L1D1....holy crap! Here I thought it would be fairly okay for me as I have been doing some resistance training and my gazelle daily. Whatever! Jillian totally kicked my _ _ _ ! :laugh: I also am starting with 3 lb weights as the 5 lb is too heavy right now. Someone had mentioned on here that his DVD is…

Or you can go to this website and then copy paste the info. http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-calculator.asp

So my new DVD still doesn't work in the DVD player! :huh: It does now work in my laptop, but I hate using that to exercise with. In my DVD player it still gets stuck on Recommendations and I can't arrow down to the Workout section. UGH! So I will be starting tomorrow morning on L1D1.....wish me luck. I'm ready for a butt…

CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :bigsmile:

Just purchased this book! Can't wait to get it!

Sounds good!

I provide daycare for 10, sometimes 12 children. I don't count extra exercise unless it is that we go for a walk to the playground (8 blocks away) or have some out of the ordinary outside activities where I am running races, etc.

So I got my DVD yesterday in the mail!!!!! Got up extra early this am to start it....I can't get the DVD to switch from Recommendations to Workouts!!!! :mad: Now will have to wait until hubby gets home to see whats up. Was so worked up I went and did 45 minutes on my Gazelle.

Thanks for the info! I'm making my own "healthy recipes" cookbook and appreciate the help! Another great one is: http://fittv.discovery.com/fansites/blaine/recipes/recipes.html He's just a regular joe that is losing weight like the rest of us and sharing his recipes.

I KNEW there was a reason I found MFP! And thank goodness I did. I believe I truly would have already given up, had I not. But I can actually feel myself getting stronger in my decision making regarding my healthy lifestyle. I have read many, many posts on here and found many inspirational people who are devoted to helping…

Now if my DVD would just come in the mail......I COULD GET STARTED!!!! :tongue:

Congrats on everything!!!!! Just keep reaching down into your soul and remember that you want to do this FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also had trouble with my thyroid. My symptoms were: inability to lose weight, lymph swelling and fatigue. I had to have half my thyroid removed and was put on Synthroid. After taking this medication for a year and gaining weight from it...I stopped taking it. I had my T4, T3, and TSH levels checked every 3 months for the…
