My fav. thing to do w/ Diet Dr Pepper is to cut up an apple and place it in a baking pan or bread loaf pan and pour the soda over top and bake it @ 350 for 40 minutes. The soda caramelizes and apples soften and it is a yummy treat.

Yayy!!! ER nurses unite! <3

ER nurse and i love it!!

For me, personally I find that if I eat a breakfast higher in protein and fiber I eat less through the rest of the day which allows me to have desert or something more decadent at the end of the night. I have more or less the same caloric intake as you according to MFP and I try to do about 4 300 calorie meals/snacks per…

Bread fast: I love liquid egg substitue for a 1 minute microwave breakfast. And I just got Jimmy d-lights b/c they are protein packed little things. I am in LOVE with Fiber One 80 calorie Honey Squares cereal. 40% of your fiber with only 3g sugar. Yum yum. Lunch: Flatout Flatbread Light (100 calories) 1 stick of light…

1/2 cup of egg substitue place it in a mug microwave for 1 mintue, stir and microwave for 30 seconds. low cal (avg 60) and high protein ( avg 12)

from a medical stand point (ER RN) I heard that stevia is better for you b/c you need less. its like 81x sweeter then normal sugar. also splenda has been linked to brain tumors (but only if you are eatting like 8lbs per day haha) Personally I like agave necture. Also natural. Try some things out see what you like. I don't…

Not only is water retention an issue with excess sodium but what it does to your veins, arteries and capillaries is tell them to tighten. This increases your blood pressure. Increased BP can in the short term can cause headache, blurred vision or a nose bleed but long term high BP can lead to glaucoma, kidney failure, a…

That is amazing!!! Congrats!! You look great! Keep up to great work buddy!

i could wander forget in target too and bed bath and beyond

Between trying to exercise, work full time and go to school full time I have precious spare time. I love to read. I really like autobiographies and non-fiction book or anythingwritten by James Patterson.

Congrats on deciding to do this. It is the 1st step!! Your right, the weight did not get put on over night and it won't come off over night either. Which can be disheartening I know. Other then the number on the scale look at other victories. You can walk a little further or a little longer then you use to. Maybe your…

Today is my day off so its not really my lunch box but I am going to make myself something yummy for lunch. I am going to have a ham sandwich w/ some dijon mustard and lettuce w/ toasted bread. And since it is pretty low calorie I am going to have Tofu Noodles and light alfredo sauce. And maybe an apple if I am still…

a pint of ice cream from artitic zero is only 150 calories. 37 calories for 1/2 a cup!! they have yummy regular flavors i am partial to the vanilla with maple. and then they have seasonal ones too. check them out. so yummy! http://www.myarcticzero.com/nutritionfacts.php

onikos greek yogurt in carmel and special k granola. YUM tastes like french toast for some reason :)

something high in protein. maybe a greek yogurt? or some peanut butter toast?

Check out what I eat. I have a few daily food vlogs and Friday favorites are good places to start: www.youtube.com/jenswwjourney

the only kind of yougurt really worth it is the sugar free kind. all the sugar and crap they add in it kill any kinda of good probiotics in it. i try not to buy into the yogurt hype but fiber one has yummy key lime pie haha but i usally go with fat free low sugar yogurts,

I had a spinach, cheese wrap for lunch in an extra fiber tortilla with a banana and im so full that i don't think i can eat my tuna wrap. definitely increase your fiber!!

Hot dogs are the one thing that I eat at work because it takes litterally 1 minute to make and 1 minute to eat. I am a nurse in the busiest ER in the state. I normally don't get 30 minutes (it is more like 15!!) to eat my dinner. So I need something super quick and easy and something that can be cooked in the microwave or…

what does BUMP mean!? haha

Thank you all for your amazing tips and suggestions!! I just made my diary public. Please feel free to check it out and let me know how I can lower those sodium levls

I had 1 cup of Blue Diamond unsweetened Almond Milk (40 calories) , 6 oz of non fat vanilla yogurt (90 calories) and the Hungry Girl Yummy sweet and savory bread pudding bowel (its like sausage and french toast drizzled with sugar free syrup and powdered sugar) which was only 263 calories. It was delicious and very filling.

I plan my day ahead of time so the only person who really knows is my fiancee. It also keeps me on track because I am like "Oh I didn't plan that. NO!" so its nice that I have to stick to my plan and cannot go crazy.

Amazing!! Keep up the great work!! And do I see a tattoo peaking there?? :)
