I love the health benefits of grapeseed oil and it tends to handle higher heat when searing a piece of lean protein. I use a teaspoon when I saute' all my veggies for my egg white omelettes. Great Stuff!!!!

If you're using boneless chicken breasts, that'd be my guess. It's amazing how much more flavorful the chicken is when you buy bone-in and cook it that way. A little less expensive too, but a bit more fussy work to clean it off the bone. Let us know if that makes a difference. :)

Hello, I'm 39 yrs old, and started my weight loss on 7/12/2011 at 266lbs (I'm 5'6). On 8/12 I weighed-in at 239lbs. 27 pounds lost!!

Good for you! You sound like you are making very intelligent choices and it's paying off! I started eating better the day after my doctor's appointment on July 11th when he watched me cry in his office over my 11lb weight gain since January and made me feel horrible. I was 266lbs. Yesterday the scale said 250lbs. YAY! 16…

Well today is just Day 8 of my brand new life, and Day 5 at walking. I go to a nearby high school and walk laps around their 1/2 mile outdoor track.
