Put some chicken thighs (breasts would probably work also) in the crockpot with some stewed tomatoes and spices of your choice. The chicken should eventually fall off the bone. Pick out the bones and serve over pasta. Kind of chicken cacciatore. Delicious!

How about a lentil soup or a soup with a variety of beans?

Here's another thought..... Why not make up your day's menu ahead of time? Be sure you fall into your allowed calories. Then when you want to add something throughout the day that you did not pre-plan, you will have to eliminate something to make up the difference. Kind of like sticking to a budget!!!

You're just going to have to work harder exercising to make up for this splurge. And keep that in mind next time that if you really want to eat something like that, you do need to make up for it someplace. Good luck......

I'd like to try this. I found Level 1 on YouTube but can't find the others. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks....

Anyone know of a lower calorie white wine?

Hi! Check out my profile and friend me if you'd like :happy:

How about a brunch buffet type thing? A nice egg casserole, quiche and maybe some waffles with fruit? Pull out all the fancies and a buffet can still be very elegant! I think I have a casserole recipe and I know I have a great brocolli quiche one that I'd be happy to share with you.

Hi I'm Karen. I'm 51 years old and am looking to lose the stomach area that hits most of us at that age. I never had to diet until this age thing kicked in! I married late in life and am very happy with my hubby. We have no children. My sister-in-law says that what I have is what she calls "happy fat"! I love that analogy…

Hi there. I love Zumba too and here's my experience with it. It looked like so much fun that I decided to join a class last summer. Well that was my one and only class. I can't tell you how clumsy I felt! And it seemed everyone in the class had been doing the routine for years. Discouraged I went home after class vowing…

Some of the coffees you buy out do that to me. Like if I go to Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. I find when I perk coffee at home or use my Keurig that doesn't happen. Their coffees must have more caffeine than what you make at home?

Hi, I have the same goals .... 15 pounds by year end. I'm looking for friends so please add me too:smile: !!!!!
