Me, too! I understand...

My pizza is a Flatout Flatbread with pizza sauce spread on. Add onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, diced cauliflower, spinach, cilantro, etc as desired. Top with a bit of cheese. Bake till veggies soft. About 250 calories.

I dice it up really small and put it in my low cal pizza, along with the onions, peppers, etc.

onions, ranch dressing,

I love steamed vegetables. Pile the veggies in a steamer and steam all together == potatoes, sweet potato, rhutabaga, onions, broccoli, etc. I recently found bags of diced cauliflower at Walmart. It is great to slip into a lot of things, and I don't even taste it (like on homemade pizza--I pile it on and I can't even tell…

I've never tried flax but I find chia "fun" to eat....sprinkle some on food and the ones stuck in your teeth turn to a "gel" and it's just....well, kind of cool....yeah, I'm weird.....but, hey, food can be fun, too!!!

Maybe not as "clean": Box of unsweetened jello (I like strawberry or strawberry banana) Pack of frozen fruit (I use blueberries or the one that has strawberries, pineapple and peaches) Put in one cup of boiling water first to dissolve the jello. Then blend in frozen fruit. You can use any fruit you want. I also like fresh…

There's not enough calories in watermelon to worry about. I'm eating a ton of it this summer but the last few have been bad so I've had to taper off. I lost enough water weight from eating the first couple that I came out on the good side! I'm waiting for the homegrown ones to start selling here now. I can't wait!!!

I don't know how y'all do it!! I mean, I know what you say about exercising and counting calories and eating what you want as long as you stay in calorie limits, etc, BUT I can't do it. I'm drooling over the things you have eaten because if I do that I would never lose anything. One bite and I'm a goner.... :( :( Not…

Oh, and steamed veggies!!!

I also like to eat!!! I eat huge salads. I, also, make a pot of vegetable soup or okra/tomato gumbo and keep on hand. Both are fairly low in calories so when I'm hungry or want something, I an eat a bowl of that and it doesn't kill my calories. They are, also, great for meals to eat a lot and not have a ton of calories. I…

Congratulations on the weight loss!!! That's awesome. I'm on day 30 of trying to change my lifestyle of eating healthier, counting calories, moving more. I don't have scales to weight and I'm not measuring. In the past, I was so obsessed with the scales that I weighted every hour and was so discouraged if it went up, so…

Grilled chicken breast and steamed broccoli at Chili's restaurant!

I like to make a flatbread pizza. I put canned pizza sauce on a flatbread with chopped onions, peppers, mushrooms and grated cheese. Bake till veggies are soft (it's usually turning a little brown then). I add meat sometimes too if I can spare the calories. Flatbread is 90 calories, veggies and sauce are not very many, and…

I've never heard of rice growing toxins.....??? I always make a big batch and eat on it all week and never had any trouble.

I make brown rice with onion and peppers cooked in it. I add canned crushed tomatoes after it is cooked and use this mixture to stuff the peppers with and put a little cheese on top. Clean out the peppers first so they are like a bowl that can be stuffed. Then put in veggie steamer and steam till soft or put in the oven in…

Flatbread wrap, with meat of your choice (I use deli turkey), veggies like lettuce, cilantro, onions, avocado, a drizzle of dressing of your choice. Roll it up and put in baggie. It's easy to eat by hand and you don't need utensils or an over to heat it up.

I would like to attend a meeting. I think I see it more as a support group---talking to people who are having the same struggles. Unfortunately, I've not found one within driving distance in my area.

A big salad and a baked potato.

When I boil the macaroni, I put in a bag of frozen broccoli.

i cut in half, smear some butter inside and sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on it. Bake in the over or microwave till it's soft when poked with a fork and the inside pulls out easily like strings. I don't care for it much with spaghetti sauces and such on it, but I like it with the butter and cinnamon and sugar.

I love tomatoes fresh out of the garden. The best is a tomato sandwich---sliced tomatoes, a little mayo, on bread. Yum!!!! I also like just fresh slicked tomatoes with mayo, a little salt and pepper. I can make a meal off of them.

Do you guys have recipes for these somewhere that we may get from you?

Peanut butter and jelly sandwich is under 600 calories!!!

Sometimes I do a yogurt cup, jello or a pudding cup before bed. I wake up with the munchies all the time, too. Sometimes I feel a need for protein or something more solid and will eat some deli turkey slices or a sandwich if I have the calories to spare.

Baked in the microwave or oven, then put butter, cinnamon and sweetener of your choice on it. Slice and fry in a pan with Pam or oil and then put cinnamon, butter, etc on it.

Where do you put the vinegar?

I like to mix mine veggies up with a little cottage cheese and some raisins!

I love oatmeal with cheese on top (no sweetness to it) and bacon crumbled up in it! Yum@

I so understand. If foods there, I'm going to eat it. I have had to clear out my house and not have it around. It's hard for you if the other people in your house keep food available. If you find an tips, please share, to help me and others who have no control when food is around. Good luck!!
