I make stir fry when I have bok choy. I cut it up into quarters or sixths if they are bigger along with carrots, onions, celery, mushrooms, broccoli, garlic, ginger, red bell pepper (I julienne all my vegetables). You can also add chicken or shrimp or whatever meat you like. Heat up a pan, cook your protein then set aside…

I love making stuffed zucchinni. Cut down the middle and hollow out. bake till tender. 350 for about 15 minutes. I stuff mine with mushrooms, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, bell pepper, parmesan cheese tomatoes and so it sticks together, an egg. chop all the veg up saute in a pan with olive oil, let cool, stir in breadcrumbs…

Yay! Good to hear. I'm sure the pounds will start melting off before you know it! Just stick to it but don't deprive yourself too much!

I really enjoyed that book!! I never got into following it though. I became a vegetarian for a while and it was great. I felt so good and lost some weight from it. I never went full on vegan though. Some of it really is extreme like not being able to have any refined sugar because it goes through animal bones or…

Aww you all are so nice :) I'm so happy I have all of you to put a smile on my face :D

You all have made some really good points and made me laugh! Thanks for your support, it really means a lot! It'll take a broken leg or something like that to keep me from running lol not some low life scum bag. :smile:

Good luck to both of you! :D

Agreed. Very well said!

I always lied about my weight by like 5 to 10 pounds but recently I told him my exact weight and my goal weight. It was scary and I think he was kind of like wow you weigh a lot more than me but he liked the fact that I was honest with him. He weighs 160 and is 6'0 and I weighed 194 and i'm 5'8". It's embarasing to weigh…

Where in Florida are you racing? I live in Florida and I have been trying to find some 5K races

WOW sounds sooo good! Vegetarian, too! Awesome, I will definitely make this. Thanks for sharing

Thank you everyone for your feedback. I am a firm believer in if it's meant to be it will happen and everything happens for a reason. I'm still kind of unsure of everything and need time to think about things. So far, this year has been rough for me but I have been doing a lot of good things for myself also. I enrolled…

I have cut back on facebook haha! When I am tempted to log on to facebook, I come on here and update my diary and all that. It has become apart of my daily routine and I love it

Just think...Would you rather eat that bad food or do you want to look fabulous and be healthy? That's what I do. Some food is ok in moderation but you need to think of the long term consequences of your decisions. It's a change in lifestyle and has a lot to do with mind over body! Good luck to you! :)

YES! it's totally worth it! :D

I get 1290 and i usually burn on average 300 cals a day exercising which brings it up to 1590 but I don't even eat all 1590. I stay around 1290 and feel good. I am usually pretty satisfied

PEANUT BUTTER! Its high in calories (200 per 2 tablespoons) and good fats and protein and it's delicious! I eat a banana with 1 tbsp peanut butter on it for a snack.

yummmmm! I can't wait to try! Thanks!

I read in a couple of books including one of Jillian Michaels books that high intensity is better. I forgot why, i don't have the books with me right now...hmm

I was the same way. Now i exhale one count through my mouth and inhale for 2 counts through my nose. I kind of put a rhythm to it. That's what works for me and I don't have to stop to gasp for air.

Amazing! How tall are you??

oh yeah does it need any other accessories other than the remote and nun chuck?

Does it teach you dance moves? lol I need help for that

I was in the same boat as you. I found myself only drinking a few glasses a day. I bought myself a big 32oz water bottle and fill it up twice a day to equal 8 cups! When I did this I dropped 6 pounds in one week. I have been told that when you don't drink enough water, the water you do drink remains in your body making you…

did you input it as roller skating or roller blading? I have had a problem with that bc I rollerblade and there is a significant difference between the two in the exercise log and I never know which on e to put

Good luck to you! This site is great. I love weddings :)

awesome! I am inspired! lol I can't wait to show mine!!

If I am hungry I'll eat them, if not, then I stick with the initial amount of calories given. Depends on me and the day!

I am watching food network right now and Giada De Laurentiis is making healthy kid friendly foods. She is making pizza pot pies right now and they look sooo good. They are individual servings with veggies, tomato sauce, chicken and cheese. For the very top she put some pizza dough that you can buy at the store in the…

I forgot...Tuna, apple, onion sandwiches...sooooo delish!
