I've been so motivated just by being in this group. Keeping my promise to do at least 30 minutes daily...some days it's "only" gardening and weeding or going for a walk, but twice i week I now have a full hour spin workout. What a difference in how i feel. Thanks.

Okay, today I did floor exercises (crunches etc) for only about 15 minutes--but the evening is young and i will get the other 15 in. The rest of you are incredible.

Glad there is a way to check in. New to posting--not sure how to do that. Is is "new topic"? Anyway, just joined and love the obligation I've put on myself to be active. Yesterday included an hour spin class and 2 hours of gardening! Could have eaten a whole additional day's worth of calories if I wanted...it felt great.…

OMG, these last few recipes have me hooked. Thank you. Love the goat cheese recipes and this Greek Chkn and Barley one. I have to stay around 1200 calories a day in order to actually lose a little weight so the recipes with under 300 calories per serving are for me!

This is a GREAT IDEA

For a beautiful and delicious dessert: Make a low calorie plain or spice cake (lots or recipes on line) or choose an angel food cake; serve with either fresh fruit or thawed frozen strawberries and raspberries slightly mashed to release the juices, and fabulous french vanilla yogurt. Easy to make enough for 20 and to serve…

Ooh, ick. Toss the paste! And don't bother with slow cooker. Here is the very best steel-cut oatmeal recipe. This will make 2 servings (one for today and one for tomorrow) and will be sooo good.. 1) Put 1/2 c. steel cut oatmeal in a small saucepan. 2) Add just under 2 cups water. 3) Turn stove to high until oatmeal boils,…

Make a poached egg, while the water boils, wash some fresh spinach, wilt the damp spinach in a skillet. Serve the egg over the spinach. The egg yolk makes a nice sauce. I like to serve it on a piece of wheat toast smeared with a tsp or so of light cream cheese Dee-licious.
