Lunch today: my take on skinnytaste's southwestern quinoa and mango medley salad. I added tomato, carrots and shrimp. It was sweet, spicy and zesty... delicious <3

I am not too sure if you are shocked by the flavors mix or by the amount of calories that must be in it, but if it is about the calories, I don't think your comment was very useful... Seeing how ripped this guy is, I'm pretty sure he can eat what he wants without having to worry too much. If you were talking about the…

I just made these delicious ground turkey and sweet potato shepherds pies, from skinnytaste.com: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2012/11/sweet-potato-turkey-shepards-pie.html

Thank you :) And sorry for the negativity, it wasn't my intention. I just hate the idea that fashion-slim is the sexy and that some girls are starving themselves to achieve it, that's all...

First I'd like to say that I am in no way "jealous", nor did I fail at my goal. I am 5'4" and 115 pounds, so don't go assuming that I am a bitter overweight person unable to lose weight and taking my anger on slim girls. My critique was in no way directed at you or slim people in general. I was just saying that I find it…

She is too skinny!! Lots of muscles, yes, but also way too thin!! Also, while I think it is a great motivation to have a goal outfit in mind, I am a little concerned when I see that all of those outfits on the pictures are worn by size 0, very probably photoshopped and beyond skinny girls! Does that mean that this is the…

Actually, it isn't very clear in the recipe but she reduced the sugar amount by half... Or anyways, I did. I only put 1 cup of sugar in my egg whites and none in the dry mix. And the MFP recipe builder did calculate them to be 75 cals per 1 tablespoon-size cookie bite.

Thanks ;)

Just made these this morning, without chocolate chips. I topped them with fresh strawberries and raspberries and a tablespoon of maple syrup. They were AMAZING!! Thank you for the recipe!!

Hi! I made an amazing quinoa salad for lunch today!! Here's what I put in it: -1/2 boiled quinoa, cold -60g of steamed salmon, cold -half an orange mini bell pepper, diced -half a roma tomato, diced -2 baby carrots, sliced -6 green grapes, cut in half -half a slice of canned pineapple, diced -4 steamed asparagus spears,…

Thank you everyone!! :) My progress is mostly due to my calorie deficit but I do go to the gym 4 times a week. I usually go for 40min of cardio, either on the elliptical or on the treadmill (doing speed intervals), then I finish with 15min of weights. Depending on what area I focus on that day, I will do 3 series of 12…

Oh and my diary is open, feel free to have a look! No mean comments please

Every morning I make myself a thick eat-with-a-spoon smoothie. I blend half a banana, 3 strawberries, half a green apple, some spinach leaves, two tablespoons of plain 0% yogurt and one tablespoon of 0% vanilla greek yogurt. Then I add 1/4 cup of honey almond granola. About 250 calories, absolutely delicious, super healthy…

My current weight is 117. I am not really trying to lose weight, rather to slim my body and tone it. I wouldn't mind getting down to 114-115 but the scale doesn't matter to me, it is more about the measurements, which I think is a more accurate way to define a body type than weight only. Mine are currently: chest: 34…

You got sick because you are eating crap everyday and your body has just had enough. Seriously, 4 to 12 cups of cheerios every day?? That is insane! You should start feeding yourself better, with more veggies and fruits and protein and WAY less processed sugary foods

Homemade healthy sweet-and-sour pork, with zucchini... (400 cal) DELICIOUS!!! yum yum yum

For lunch today: Grilled (cold) pork cubes with a little bit of chili sauce. To go with that, a salad made of baby spinach, chopped up red, orange and yellow mini sweet peppers, a tomato, a celery stalk and a slice of pineapple. With a homemade honey-dijon dressing. SOOO GOOD!!! And only 330 calories! :)

I think you have some kind of an eating disorder. You are starving your body by not eating enough and that is dangerous. You said you`ve been on 1200 a day for a year and a half? I'm guessing you must be really skinny then! So why are you still so worried about food and restricting yourself so much? You should not be…

Ate a few slices of cheese and paté on toasts last night, as part of a wine and cheese evening with friends. Then we followed it with sushis... had like 15 pieces of various calories-packed kinds.... Cream cheese, fried, pineapple... you name it. And I had eaten so well all day, had even planned my perfect 300 calories…

Wow I see some posts from 5'4" girls who are trying to get down to 100 pounds! That is too skinny and very unhealthy!!! Especially when these girls are around 110-115 right now, which is already thin... It scares me a little. I am 5'4" and I weight 114 pounds. I am not trying to lose weight, rather to tone up my body. I do…
