When you do go to Starbucks I recommend the tall skinny vanilla latte. Really good and only 100 calories. Not bad comparatively.

Salsa Verde (1 TBSP = 5 calories) Dark chocolate bars Fig butter (between an english muffin tastes like a fig newton sandwich) High calorie but absolutely LOVE the honey roasted sesame cashews and almonds.

http://www.skinnytaste.com/ Skinnytaste is amazing. I also have the cookbook and make her recipes all the time. They are easy, low cal, and delicious.

I love to make bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato sandwhiches :smile:

I'm having a homemade turkey burger on an english muffin. I make about 3lbs of turkey burgers and freeze them. Then I thaw and cook them the night before for easy lunches.

Have you stocked up on healthy snacks? Having plenty of healthy snacks on hand can help avoid that unnecessary trip to the convenience store. But it sounds like the issue may be that you are using the snacks/tv to avoid doing what you don't want to do - your school work. Make sure to take breaks while doing your work and…

Boil chicken breasts, shred, toss with hot sauce or bbq sauce, and throw on a bun. Pour a jar of salsa over chicken breasts or fish fillets, sprinkle with cheese, and bake.

I love to make blueberry oatmeal pancakes! I'm not a huge fan of pancakes but these have great texture and flavor. http://www.cookinglight.com/food/top-rated-recipes/best-pancake-recipes/oatmeal-pancakes-recipe

I love to spread the chocolate PB2 on a whole grain waffle and top with sliced strawberries. So good!

You can add me :) I'm 23, down 14 lbs and hoping to drop about 10 more.

Yes! I do this often. The chicken turns out soo tender.

Boil and shred the chicken and mix in some buffalo sauce or bbq sauce. I throw it on a whole grain english muffin. Super easy and tasty.

How much protein do you eat? I try to make sure my meals and snacks have high protein content which greatly helps me stay full throughout the day.

I calculated this for my homemade brownie recipe substituting the diet coke for the eggs and butter and it came out to 85 calories each for 12 brownies. They normally would be about 150 each for 12 servings so it is still quite an improvement.

^This. I made the baked potato soup last week and it was great. Having the so addicted enchiladas for lunch and the buttermilk oven fried chicken for dinner. Skinnytaste has had such an impact on how I cook!

http://www.skinnytaste.com/2008/03/recipe-index.html I cannot promote this enough! The website along with the cookbook are the largest contributor to my 10 lbs down since Christmas :smile:

Yep! This in combination with my Skinnytaste cookbook!

Sugar free jello pudding or strawberries with low fat whipped topping are great

My big day is August 1st! 10 lbs down and 10-15 to go!

My diary is open. I sent you a request.

I never plan an entire day, unless maybe Christmas or Thanksgiving in which I probably wouldn't log anything. I generally know when events and get togethers are coming up so will just be prepared for those. I try to make sure to get a work out in that day and still eat the goodies/snacks/whatever in moderation. I feel that…

Sugar free jello pudding, unsweetened applesauce with cinnamon, frozen yogurt

I'm in Minnesota (or Minnesnowta) so I can relate! But I don't mind them on the grill pan sometimes. I make large batches and freeze them for easy week night meals :smiley:
