I use 2 bananas that tend to be really ripe so I don't use any sweetener at all now. I don't think it needs it. I would recommend storing the baked cookies in the fridge. Again, I make this almost every other week and I put some in a snack bag for dessert after lunch or a snack before/after the gym.

I make this recipe almost weekly and I made a new batch this morning. I added some flax seed meal in the mixture for good measure!

I know this!!!!!!! There was a great poster who gave this tidbit: Put 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels in a paper lunch bag. Fold over top and tape with scotch tape. Microwave to 2 1/2 minutes and voila!~ We melt a smidge of butter and top. It makes just enough and healthy - no chemicals, oils, etc. I eat it plain and love it.…

Cold turkey = I drink flavored seltzer water now

Great job! It's all those small choices that will add up to success. If you had the McD's, you could have started the beginnings of a cheat day or bad food choices lead to more bad food choices.

You are there to get the most out of it you can.......that shows that you are serious~

I ran into an acquaintance in the store recently and we were having a conversation and it wasn't until my daughter walked up to us that she said, OMG - its you!!! She said she had no idea who I was during the whole conversation - she was trying to figure it out! I've also waited on neighbors of mine and we are face to face…

I actually had my husband view the profile and diaries of some of my MFP friends that are male(they are huge inspirations and motivators for me so I knew they could be for him) and also had him see some before and after posts from men who have posted - I think he just thought it was something my daughter and I would use…

My family applauds my dedication and my friends are huge motivators. People who haven't seen me in awhile have no clue it's me. I have had a long conversation with an acquaintance and they had no clue till the end who I was. It's really kind of funny. Strangers are more friendly and inviting. No more of "those" looks I…

I brew my own iced tea every morning for the day. Tea bags are cheap. If buying canned veggies, try to buy lo salt or no salt added. Shop Aldis (if you have one) for produce, spinach, lettuce, butter, beans, oats, eggs and milt - cheap. Try to cook as much from scratch - I have a great granola recipe that makes a lot. Buy…

This may be the coolest thing I've learned here!!! This is a new family favorite. It makes just enough and I eat it plain and salt free and by family will melt a little butter for taste. Cheap and much healthier than microwave popcorn. Who knew????????

Two suggestions: Try skinnytaste.com. I made their pumpkin muffins using a cake mix and canned pumpkin. She shows all the nutritional info also. TONS of recipes. At a party once, someone made this cake which was Angel Food Cake mix and Canned crushed pineapple. It was so light and delicious. She said it was an old Weight…

With the stress associated with all that, I'm fortunate to have good news to report...... Last weigh in .......... 227 Weigh in today......... 226 Only 1 pound…

I am a diabetic. I went back to my food diary over the last several days and I am anywhere from 10-22 grams of sugar per day. I also try to limit my sodium to less than 2000/day. I truly believe that eating sugar makes you crave more sugar (no, not a scientific statement - just my opinion). If I really can keep it low over…

My daughter's middle school taught a health class that went into a lot of detail. That was 6th grade. We wanted to talk with her about it then. The school sent home a paper each year she had health class giving us the terms and vocabulary words they would be talking about. Embarrassingly, my husband and I didn't know some…

I suggest going onto the website and check the nutritional values before even walking in to the place. You can also to to Eat This Not That.com and check out the restaurant in their search box. He will usually grade restaurants.

Barbara's Puffins cereals are great!!! I've had the original which has 5 grams of sugar and I LOVE the peanut butter which is 6 grams of sugar. The peanut butter tastes just like Captn Crunch cereal---YUM!!! They make a multigrain and a cinnamon but haven't tried. You can buy them at the grocery store in the healthy…
