I make this almost every 3 weeks - most of the ingredients are spices and sometimes I will pre-measure them into small snack size bags so they are done ahead of time. Makes tons and is quick to make. Turkey Chili 2 1/2 lbs. ground turkey (93/7) 2 tbsp. olive oil 1 green bell pepper, diced 1 red bell pepper, diced 1/2 cup…

Have you checked out the books and website of Eat This Not That? They research the restaurant and choices and grade them on their healthy choices AND their willingness to share their nutritional information. They grade restaurants like Chipotle, Olive Garden, Pizzeria Uno, etc. and then let you know what they would…

I agree with all also. Keep an eye on carbs and your doc will help you with calories. Please feel free to check out my profile page regarding my journey and also feel free to add me as a friend. Good luck and you are on the right track!

Perms Toe socks Worst of all: Hi cut leg exercise leotard with shiny tights, leg warmers and hi-top reeboks. May have been a headband on too! So I just dated myself~

My butt has shrunk and I'm thrilled with the results. I do alot of elliptical and stepper machine with incline work. As far as the boobs, as I will say, I went from a 46C to a 36 LONG. They definitely have gone away but as the months continue, they do inflate a little bit.

Ezejkiel is my bread of choice and I will eat Joseph's Oat Bran and Flax pitas (small is 45 calories Large is 60 calories) will 4 or 5 net carbs. I also eat the 2 minute microwave mug bread that's posted on this website which uses no flour only flaxseed meal.

One of my fav recipes. I made them again this morning as I had bananas that were definitely ready and made the recipe as stated on the original post but added 1/3 cup flaxseed meal and this time didn't include the sweetener (so I guess I didn't make them as on the original post). They came out great! I do store them in the…

Annabelle's Wish - Christmas Cartoon. I've seen it a million times and never a dry eye. Worth it to see.

Congratulations on the body transformation. I don't think you need to change your style - I'm a big fan of Dockers for my hubby, you are the same age. They make all different styles of trousers and hit a men's dept and try things on. You've worked really hard and now it's time to live on the wild…

Really????

Awesome job!! You look amazing!! I am also on the train to ONEderland and am hoping to get there soon. I need to leave baggage of approx. 28 lbs. behind and I will hopefully be there soon. I can't wait to move there! I know first hand how pleased you must be to achieve that goal - congrats and save a place for me~

If it were me, I would definitely have to have my meal (lunch or dinner) before I went. It is just too tempting. If I have something that I think is good, I will want to go back again and I'm really trying to avoid McDs. One for the sodium, two for the general unhealthiness and third for the easy addictiveness that comes…

2nd that - best website I have found besides mfp. Made the pumpkin cupcakes yesterday - yum!

There is a tab above for recipes and you can add your individual ingredients and save the recipe. Then when you do to dinners, choose my recipes and the recipes will pop up for you to pick.

The more I cook my own meals the better my sodium levels. I try to stay away from frozen and processed foods. Eating out is also a danger zone.

Thank you for your story and I'm so sorry for your loss. I found your story so inspiring and I can relate a bit. In May of 2010 I weighed 347 lbs. and was diagnosed with diabetes. I all of a sudden was taking insulin 4x a day along with other medications. I totally had the scare of my life and made the healthy changes that…

Sometimes we get busy and lose track. When I feel like I'm falling off the wagon(so to speak), I use my bracelet trick to keep me on track. I have bangle bracelets in black, gold and silver. In the morning, I put 5 of each color on my right wrist. Black represents water, Gold represents Veggies, and Silver represents…

I don't think you've stopped caring but maybe just have taken a step back for perspective. 800 calories net seems pretty low and you are pretty much pushing it on the daily exercising. So focused - that happens to me but hard to maintain for continued periods of time. Maybe come to a happy medium and think about making…

Can you explain more? How do you eat 4400 calories in one day and how does that help in losing 3 pounds per week? What is your exercise regime?

One of the posts above mentioned how to freeze in ice cube trays - that works great! I add basil to everything....... quinoa, salad, shredded on top of sauce, pasta. It is my go-to herb.

Absolutely - my hubby hates high fructose corn syrup and asked if there was a jelly/jam without it? I think I read every label of every jar in the store - yes - there is one brand made with juice. I spend a lot of time comparing labels but the time spent has paid off!!
-
I say switch it up too! I know there were/are certain weights where I felt my body said, "Whoaaa, wait a minute, I like it here" and I had to fight to jump start the weight loss again. Changing it up for even taking a day or two off from your exercise routine can do the trick. Change up the workout too. I try to workout…

You look amazing! Congratulations!

Baked at 350 for 20 minutes. They smell delicious and they taste great!…

Congratulations on your success so far...... I know it's hard work and am so proud of you for improving your health! I, too, have taken control of my diabetes and you should know what a huge success that is for you! I have boarded the train to ONEderland and would certainly enjoy having you join my journey. Please feel…

When my daughter was little we were at an amusement park attending an outdoor magic show. The stage was in front and there were bleachers surrounding the stage filled with 4-6 yr olds and their parents. The magician asked for several volunteers and 4 children ran up on stage to be his assistants. He asked the first child,…
