Also... ;_) I just went to our local flea market and stocked up on all the veggies i could afford, cut em up ready to eat in the fridge, so everytime i need a snack, i can eat any of those for virtually no calories...just a thought.

if you keep your meal calories to around 300, there are all sorts of snacks you could have. I am also a big snacker, you just need to make good choices..... Raw Almonds wheat tortilla with 1/2 banana 1Tbsp almond butter carrots and hummus cottage cheese with fruit and almonds There are endless low cal snacks...dont starve…

If you havent tried cauliflower for mashed potatoes...if you like cauliflower, steam them and blend em up....i think they are fabulous, i dont even feel the need for mashed potatoes anymore.

Ha! I like way you think!!

Dont know if this is any help but, i happen to have that seasoning and its 15cal per serving (2 tsp, makes 2 tacos). I cant imagine you can mess up too bad with such a low cal content. As for the turkey, i would just kinda measure out about how much your putting on your tacos. Sometimes you just cant be perfect with the…

I wasnt aware that Trader Joes had a protein mix...can you tell me the sugar content of it? I usually use the ON Gold Standard brand, i like the mochacchino, with fat free milk...i have to say of all the protein powders i have used in the last 20 years, its my fav!! But I love a change up, I am very interested in this…

Nice job ladies!! Im down one more, makes two for the week....that biggest loser wii game kicks your butt!! I love it!! Have a great day everyone!

Oh sushi!! How i love sushi!! I know its not a tempura roll, but i found a place here that makes a roll called a sexy roll, its rolled in cucumber and oh so yummy, I had no idea that they even used brown rice, thank you for sharing this info!!

Cute! Thanks for sharing...yeah, no good memories of taco bell. Keep up the good work!

Count me in too!!

well, if i can just say that losing weight is 90% food and 10% exercise. Im sorry, i didnt mean to rain on anyones parade, but if you are serious about losing any weight, you have to CUT OUT processed food. And may i add, that a good veggie choice is fresh or frozen. Canned veggies are full of sodium. Its real easy to eat…

If you feel some packaged foods are good for you, by all means...but i understood what you were saying. You seemed to be bothered that people were giving advice and not knowing what they were talking about....but in the meantime, you were suggesting lean cuisine..knowing how full of junk these pre-packaged foods are, i had…

I do agree with moderation, but eating clean isnt difficult and i dont believe it is a huge leap to stop eating pre-packaged foods.

sorry, not sure who you directed that to...lol I was just stating that lean cuisines are full of preservatives and really arent healthy for you, no matter what calorie or portion size. I dont mean to offend, its just that alot of people dont understand, especially if it claims low in calories.

Can i ask why your nutritionalist recommended you stay away from grains??

Can i just say one thing about Lean Cuisine? Have you looked at the ingredients on the box? I honestly would never suggest these to anyone trying to drop weight. Clean eating is the only way to go and do it healthy.

Hi Mandy, Im Shannon. I am in about the same boat, I need to lose about 15 lbs...ill add you!! Good luck on your weight loss :happy:

No, protein shakes are wonderful for weightloss!! You just have to do some research on em. There are alot of them that are full of sugar, these, in my opinion are weightloss hindering. As for the Synthia, i just didnt get what i needed from it.

I used the Mochaccino, it really was very, very yummy

I hate to be the downer...but as for the Kirkland shakes, have you read the nutrition facts on these? There are 38 grams of sugar in them. You have to watch out for all that sugar, it really can hinder losing any weight.

You can get it anywhere. Ebay seems to be the cheapest that i could find. But beware, when i used it, it seemed to hinder weight loss...it does taste very good, i think that is a problem....it seems to have alot of fillers in it. I dunno, it could be just me, but i would read reviews on it. I use the ON (Optimum…
