Glad you liked it! I, unfortunately, cannot find anymore pumpkin anywhere! But I did use applesauce instead with butterscotch flavored pudding mix, threw some chopped up apples and peanuts on top and it was delicious! Tasted like a caramel apple! Also tried it without the applesauce for a less intense flavor and it was…

I cooked one last night! I love it too and also just use it as a replacement for noodles. I think it has a little bit of a nutty taste to it and is a bit crunchy compared to pasta. I would eat it by itself. I'm planning to use leftovers as the 'noodle' for a version of a tuna noodle casserole. Other than that I have used…

Yeah! You would just have to adjust the amount of yogurt you use, or adjust the amount of pudding mix you add to compensate for not having the 1/2 cup of pumpkin. I can't wait to try other flavors either!

Yeah, it's nice to have some new flavors to wake up the taste buds! I'm thinking there might not be much canned pumpkin in the stores yet, so next I'm planning to try this: Yogurt, applesauce, and caramel or butterscotch flavored pudding mix. Add chopped up apples with a few peanuts on top and you have... caramel apple…

I just searched 'ice cream cones' in the database, and these were in the results: Ice cream cones - Cake or wafer-type Servings: 1 cone Calories 17 Sodium 6 mg Total Fat 0 g Potassium 4 mg Saturated 0 g Total Carbs 3 g Polyunsaturated 0 g Dietary Fiber 0 g Monounsaturated 0 g Sugars 0 g Trans 0 g Protein 0 g Cholesterol 0…

Oddly enough, I don't really like ham very much, but I love ham salad! It's been quite a while since I've had some. I guess it doesn't gross me out because growing up my parents would have some sometimes. Now egg salad... that's a different story! Edit: I hope things get easier for you. I went through something similar. A…

I'm also looking into getting one and just tagging for later :)

I was just going to post this! I had some for the first time last night and it was awesome!

Have you tried meringues? I have not personally tried them yet, but I plan to next time I feel the need to eat a cooke. I was just looking at the packaged ones in the bakery section at the grocery store. They are pretty small, about 120 calories and 20 carbs/sugar for 13 cookies. Yeah, 13 cookies is the serving size! They…

I know in the grocery store where the jared pestos are, there are many different flavors besides just basil, like roasted pepper & sun-dried tomato. You could also use some type of pasta or marinara sauce or a can of campbells soup (like cream of mushroom) - whatever will coat the chicken and keep it moist.

bump for later

Thanks everyone. I've weighed the raw meat and used that info from the database. I actually used the recipe feature on here to figure out the cals in this one. I only wish I could edit the ingredients after I put them in, instead of having to go back and search for the item and add it again. But it is still much better…

Definitely trying that pizza crust recipe!

This is one of my favorite healthy meals to make! 4-6 red or green peppers 1 lb lean ground turkey or lean ground beef 1/2 onion tops of the peppers using for stuffing, chopped 1 cup al dente cooked cauliflower, shredded (I use this instead of rice - or use 1/2 c of brown rice) 1 8 oz package sliced mushrooms 1 14 oz can…

Yeah, the carton says a whole egg is 80 calories also. The thing is, I usually have one whole egg with two egg whites. The calorie information for just the white is what I'm trying to figure out. I'll just weigh one tomorrow and use that value until these are gone and go back to the regular size. Thanks everyone for your…

Something to keep in mind - a lot of nutrition labels don't include potassium, so even though it is something you can track on this site your number probably is not accurate. I have added many food items to the database and more times than not have to leave the potassium blank because it is not listed on that item. Take a…

Look at your diary - your fit and active Neufchâtel cheese says it has 50g of fat in 2 tablespoons!!! That is obviously incorrect. I think you'd be all right otherwise.

I have been using it for about a month now. The first time it was really difficult, and after a week straight I developed a lot of discomfort in my knees. I had to stop for a week, and then started again. I have to modify the jumping jacks move because of my knees, and also make sure I am extremely careful with the…

I just had some and it was awesome! I melted 1 tablespoon of peanut butter and put on top. Yum. Edit - My mom and 11 year old brother who do not eat healthy at all just tried some and didn't like it - thought it needed lots of sugar. Crazy! Oh well, more for me :)

Spray butter is not a calorie free food! If the calories and fat for a specific serving size (like 1 spray or whatever it is) are below a certain percentage, they can technically say it is "fat free" or "calorie free". But if you use 2 sprays, that could be what it takes to push it up to NOT being fat free or calorie free.…

Looks delicious!!

1 cup of water is 8 ounces. The recommended 8 cups of water equals 64 ounces.

Oatmeal! I have tried several times because I love the smell, love oatmeal cookies, granola, granola bars etc, but it just sends shivers down my spine and I gag. Every kind of fish or seafood except for canned tuna Asparagus Brussel Sprouts Cilantro Cannot eat celery unless ALL of that stringy stuff is peeled off the…

With some small variation on fruits and veggies I usually have: 1 egg and 1 or 2 whites scrambled with spinach and sometimes a turkey sausage patty, topped with green onion and chopped tomatoes, sometimes a sprinkle of cheese, with a few strawberries or other berries on the side I sometimes also make the above, except for…

I bought the DVD yesterday, and just completed L1D1, so I'm a little behind everyone else. I could only do about half as many of the push-ups and jumping jacks as they did and also could barely raise my arms up by the second set of the side lunges. Hopefully I will do a little better next time, probably just because I know…

Are these special occasions/events that you are referring to also deadlines to you for weight loss? It may not be the excitement of the occasion giving you problems, but rather the overwhelming feeling of an unrealistic goal. Try giving yourself one small goal at a time. Instead of loosing 15 pounds by July (which is a…

Yeah, really easy! I'm not very experienced with cooking... this is only the 2nd soup I've ever made! BTW - it also freezes and reheats great too!

Yum! How many pancakes did the whole recipe make?

I'm curious about this too. I thought the very same thing the past few days after walking my dog in hot humid weather too!

Someone put a link to this site in a previous post about meal plans: http://www.eatingwell.com/recipes_menus/menus_meal_plans Under '28 Day Meal Plans' pick from Weight Loss, Vegetarian, Diabetic, Heart Health etc. and then choose from 1200, 1500 or I think 1800 calories a day. There are lots of good ideas and variation,…
