Also medications can make you hold on to more weight. I have had surgery a few times and its hard to bounce back. Talk to your Dr. and get some blood work done.Hang in there!

One choice at a time.

Why in the world are there so many food adds on a weight management board? err makes me want to eat!

I had full by-pass lost 100lb. Its still hard work. All was covered by ins. 32,000. 250$ out of pocket. I still have a long way to go. Totaly worth it...if I could I would do it again. Vitamins cost about 100$ a month.

Cut up banana/strawberries (frozen) replace ice, sugar free protein powder, plain greek yogert (no sugar added) milk of your choice. amounts are your choice just play with it, freeze fruit so your drink isn't watered down No sugar added carnation instant breakfast no need to blend. You can add peanut butter to choc.or…

Being that it's close family I would talk to Dad not with sister around. It isn't that the food is just unhealthy but she would be malnourished eating like that. I know it's not ez to get children fed and off to school and events. I am a big fan of no sugar added carnation instant breakfast... kids can mix it up them…

Meat. Add a scoop of Ice cream to protein shakes. Olive oil or healthy oils... your body needs them to function.eat full fat yogert. cottage cheese ect.

These are great tips. You can also cook it in a crock pot over night with your frozen fruit so its ready when you wake. Also adding cottage cheese is good it makes the texture nice and gives a protein boost ( better for blood sugars).

All that hard work paid off. Keep it up, take care of you!

I am guessing you don't want to use flour. Some Wheat flour with ground flax seed and baking powder would help much. I would use vanilla and cinnamon. The banana replaces the egg and oil in the cake. Happy Cooking:happy:

I'm all on it. I have the same goal, was hopeing to reach it by May 16 but I lost focus. :smile:

You may not be doing anything wrong. Go to your Dr. and get some blood work done your body may be telling you something.

I am very active and we like to spend time outdoors camping ect. Many years I pushed through the pain and now I need a total knee replacement, but have to wait another 12 years till I'm 50 to have it done. Now on bad days I have to stay home or use a cain just around my small house. Always talk to your Dr.

I :heart: Cannoli! 3c ricatta ff cheese drained and dry, 2tsp vanilla extract, 1c sugar substitute. Beat for 8 min with a mixer, fill sugar icecream cones and top with choc chips. EZ and Yummy!!!

Just remember thin is not always the most healthy of the two. Try no sugar added Carnation Instant Breakfast for them with a piece of fruit for breakfast. You can make it the night before so they can grab and go in the AM. I'm sure they are hungery when they come home. On the weekend chop a variety of vegies make…
