My fave is Syntrax Nectar chocolate truffle.

Whenever we stay at a Marriott Hotel they have a huge infuser pitcher of water in the lobby for guests...filled with strawberries, lemon, lime, watermelon. and all kinds of fruits. I fell in love with that water and bought myself an Infuser pitcher. Love infused water...doesn't even matter what I put in it..it's always…

True..and really sad.

1. My very expensive bras that I splurged on 6 months ago no longer fit..boobs are shrinking. (would much rather have belly shrinking more...why take from the fat I actually LIKE having?? :) 2. that is all. :)

OMG.....too funny!

I love it. I tried many Greek yogurts and Dannon light and fit is definitely one of my faves...but Yoplait 100 is my Greek yogurt of choice.

Get packages of small chicken breasts when they go on sale and freeze them.Same for beef..I buy the packs of 4 oz sirloins when on sale to keep on hand, and the family size ground beef (low fat) that I then cut in half and freeze. You can eat what you "normally" eat, just smaller portions and log everything to make sure…

Syntrax Nectar chocolate truffle...awesome.

I always put a bit of butter on my veggies...I use Land O Lakes light butter...it's butter and canola oil blend..it has half the calories and fat but tastes exactly the same as regular butter to me. As for water...definitely add some fresh fruit..I use an infuser pitcher and make lots of different fruit combos..or even…

Yes...I lost every pound by using MFP and just eating at a deficit. No fad diets this time!

I'm so sorry about your friend...so young. Tragic. We, as adults, have to be accountable to ourselves. We cant force people to make changes that they have no desire to make. Just keep doing what you are doing...log your food every day, eat at a calorie deficit, work out when you can to help keep your heart healthy. Maybe…

lol I do that too!

I made a ground beef casserole tonight and I added every ingredient into the recipe maker and saved it. It's a bit time consuming but I do it for all the meals I make as I don't eat out much.

I usually wear leggings or capri length jogging pants and a t- shirt to the gym. Most people don't really pay much attention to anyone else, so try not to be nervous. You can start easy..jump on one of the bikes or treadmill to start. Most gyms do an orientation for new members if you ask..at least the gyms I have joined…

BEST CLEANSE EVER!!!

You are eating very healthy fats...I wouldn't worry about it. (I have my macros set for 40/30/30)
-
That's the exact reason why I pass on all of those frozen meals.
-
I had one for the first time the other day...the brownie one. I had to heat it in the microwave as it was hard as a rock. Loved it heated, but it did upset my stomach a bit. I also tried the apple pie bar..that one was really good and did not upset my stomach at all. I have the choc. peanut butter..haven't tried it yet.

I actually enjoy counting and logging because I know I am using it as a learning tool that will benefit me for life. Do I plan on doing it forever? No....but for now I have to because my "guesstimates" are always waaay off. :)

Most of those pre-made parfaits use vanilla yogurt. I make my own parfaits with Dannon Light and Fit Carb control vanilla, Bare Naked banana nut granola, and berries. Unbelievably yummy! You can use plain greek yogurt and flavor it with a drop of vanilla extract and a sweetener packet. I do that when I cant find my carb…

Quest bars...lots of fiber :)

I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes too. 2 of my sisters have developed type 2 diabetes and my mom died from complications from type 2 diabetes. I have made many changes over the past 2 months as I take this diagnosis very seriously. Hoping my efforts will pay off. Scary disease.

Thanks for the replies and help...I understand it much better now. I'm going to just keep tracking the total carbs, but choosing foods with higher fiber and lower glycemic.
