I have been going through the same thing for years. No matter what I did or ate I would lose 10-15lbs and that would be it. It's definitely frustrating. I got to the point where I was like, we'll I can eat cake or I can eat vegetables and I'll weigh the same either way so bring on the cake. Last year my husband and I…

I put lemon juice, a little bit of low fat mayo and veggies in mine.

I noticed them at Costco the other day.

Thanks guys! :happy:

So 3/4 cup of oil and 3/4 cup of applesauce?

Sometimes different brands have different nutrional stats. Did you check that out?

I think you could as long as you blend it really well. With the spinach dip I make I blend a container of cottage cheese and half a block of light cream cheese and you can't notice the texture at all! And sometimes I mix in some salsa, yummy yummy!

I make a spinach dip with blended cottage cheese and light cream cheese and it's awesome. I'm the same as you, the texture grosses me out but I can do it blended no problem. It's kinda like thick sour cream.

i don't know about Under Armour but my Mother in Law runs 7 days a week and teaches aerobics 4 nights a week and she swears by New Balance. She won't put anything else on her feet. Hope that helps :)

I'm on the east coast of Canada so I don't know if I could help you out there..lol

I have to give myself a "cheat meal" every now and then. Nothing TOO crazy, but if you deprive yourself all the time you'll drive yourself crazy and end up sabotaging all you've worked for. This is supposed to be a lifestyle change and can yo uhonestly say that you'll never eat (insert favorite food here...lol) for the…

He had a good show yesterday too. Lots of tips on how to raise your metabolism and fat-burning.

I mix mine with Crystal Light!

Nova Scotia, Canada!!

LisaC1026- i really don't know if that's what I have. We didn't really do any tests ot get into it too much because the doctor says you usually try for a year before they really delve into the problems. This could be my problem because I don't have regular periods. Any weight fluctuation causes it to come and go. I…

I think we all have trouble with self control or we wouldn't be on this website....lol. I find the best deterrent to falling off the wagon is to have your goals or the reason you want to lose basically shoved in your face. I have a picture of myself that I hate and picture of myself from before I met my husband (when I was…

They all sound great...especially that salad. Yummy! Thanks guys :)

Hi :) I actually decided to start back with this site for that very reason. I jioned about a year ago and fell off....story of my life! LOL. But this time I have a reason other than myself. My husband and I have been trying to have a baby for about 8 months or so now and no luck. I did some research and talked to my doctor…

There's a recipe in the hungry Girl Cookbook for Boneless Wings. You cut a bonless skinless chicken breast in chunks and dip them in hot sauce. The crust is Crushed Fibre One, crushed fat free bbq Pringles and some spices. Bake them for about 20 minutes. 150 Cal and 1.5g fat for 5 wings!

Well that's a relief! LOL.

I was at the supermarket this weekend looking for some lunch and thought I might get some sushi. I looked at the ingredients and the second thing listed was high fructose corn syrup. I'm devastated!! Is it just supermarket sushi or does all sushi contain HFCS? I've been trying to find out but I haven't been getting…

Kraft has a new line of salad dressings that are made with olive oil. They're full fat but it's good fat :)

I get a lot of recipes off the Kraft canada website. They have a healthy living section that has lots of great stuff. Here's a great cheesecake recipe from there. http://www.kraftcanada.com/en/recipes/berry-berry-cake-88016.aspx

I have her Burn Fat Fast dvd and I couldn't do a thing with it! The steps were way too confusing. So it's been in my dvd player once and now it sits on the shelf. And you're right, her voice fives me NUTS!

Thanks guys for all the advice. I just wanted to clarify that the snack before bed is not right before I go to bed. It's a few hours. I'm a night owl so I'm eating around 8:30 or so and I don't go to sleep until about 12:30/1:00. Does that make a diffreence?

I normally work out around 4:00 then come home and have supper, maybe a bath to help the sore muscles. I watch some tv with my hubby or read a book. I usually have a snack before bed, some popcorn, fruit or rice cakes. Nothing that really should be keeping me up.

I have to ask, has anyone else had a really hard time sleeping after starting a new exercise program????? For the last week (since I started hard core working out) I've been tossing and turning. And trust me, I'm a girl who loves to sleep! My friend has just started training for a body building competition ( I know, I…

Hey! I'm noticing there's nobody here from the east coast. I feel like a loner! LOL. I'm originally from Newfoundland but I just moved to Halifax, NS. So far I'm loving it! I'm going to have to recruit some fellow maritimers though.....

I was actually just looking for a shrimp/pasta recipe on the Kraft website. I think I'll try this one. Thanks!

Don't beat yourself up. It's only one day in a long journey. Damage control today and start tomorrow with a postive attitude :happy:
