Cook green beans and top with fat free feta cheese and crumbled bacon or bacon bits while hot. This is frequently a meal for me.

I've had an ice cream jones these past few weeks, as well. I just discovered Yasso frozen Greek yogurt bars. 100 calories, 1 to 2 grams fat, 5 grams protein. They are a good size and satisfying and hit the spot when I crave ice cream. I got them at Walmart.

Seriously, leave her alone. I was your daughter. My mother could not believe she had this fat daughter who ate covertly and she did everything she could to 'help' including taking me to a doctor who put me on diet pills at 15, shaming me, punishing me, bribing me - anything she could think of to keep me from eating. At…

Hey everyone! I haven't posted in awhile, the holidays were too hectic and now I'm getting ready for a bathroom/bedroom remodel to start later this week, which has me stressed. Bob, all of your meals look scrumptious! I live alone and really quit cooking awhile back - I was eating poorly because of it - but since starting…

It's supposed to snow in Nebraska but they are saying just 1 to 2 inches so I should be able to get out okay. Once the plane departs, I'm home free.- Portland is always rainy but doesn't snow very often. We'll be eating out a lot, I'm afraid, so there's no meal plan, per se but I have my iPad and phone with MFP them, so I…

Good morning, all. Another dreary day here in Nebraska (and for Lin in Iowa, as well). I'm getting ready to fly out to Portland tomorrow and now they are predicting snow but hopefully it won't be too much or too many delays. I hope to stay on plan as much as possible while in Portland but won't beat myself up if I fall off…

Hi Marie. I just found this thread and have been reading through it. It's great to see a group of people in my age range. I'll be 67 on Monday and I'm trying to lose 50 lbs. I've lost 21 since August. Every stinking decade of my life I've had to lose at least 50 lbs. This is my first try at actually logging everything I…

I'm also 67 and do low carb, low calorie, moderate fat and protein - 50 net carbs, 1200 calories and I exercise 90 minutes a day 4 days a week and 60 the other days. Keto is too restrictive for me so I experimented until I hit a carb number that allowed me to lose weight and that was 50. And the weight loss is DISGUSTINGLY…

Loved Prince of Tides by Pat Conroy. You might also try The Great Santini, his first book. A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Iriving - I'm rereading this for about the 10th time now. Just finished The Good Girl - Mary Kubics and One Kick - Chelsea Cain.

I just finished 'We Are Not Ourselves' By Matthew Thomas a great sprawling novel about and Irish American family and it is the best book I've read in 10 years. Also, just putting this out there for any Judith Rossner fans. One of my all time favorite books is Attachments by Judith Rossner - about two friends who marry…

I think you almost have to log during maintenance to stay successful. I just saw a documentary on HBO, part of their 'Weight of the Nation' series, called the Biology of Weight Loss and the depressing take away was that a person who has lost weight will have to eat 20% fewer calories (or burn them) daily for the rest of…
