I'm also trying to stay away from the processed foods, so no diet food per se. Just about every time I shop, I buy lots of fruit (whatever's on season and cheap). I like to make a big bowl of it when i get hope so its all ready to go for a fruit salad treat whenever I want. I buy lots of veggies, because you can always use…

I usually only get the munchies like that on the weekend, and I think it's because I'm relaxing in the morning, which basically means just sitting around watching some mornign tv and drinking my coffee. So, for me anyway, I think it's a bit like boredom eating, even though I really do feel like I'm hungry. And I always…

I use mine to make grilled sandwiches. You have also made quesadillas in mine. I never spray mine and have not had trouble cleaning it. You do have to make sure things are pretty even thickness, as others have mentioned. Also, meats that are marinated have been difficult for me. The sauce kinda burns up and turns to a…

Despite where this post has gone, with the whole one meal vs. five meals argument, I really like the post. As a social worker, I use the whole rating your confidence in your ability to make change tool with clients who are contemplating change, so I'm not sure why I've never used it myself. I can definitely get into the…

I've started to get out of cook books and more into food blogs. I always find that when I get a cook book I only end up making a handful of the recipes and then the book is just sitting around. Of coures, I still have quite a few books and will still buy some. I also like the eat clean books. But, I would definately second…

I just started using greek yogurt in an attempt to clean up my diet. I have been using it as a dip base, like in tzatziki. I just made this overnight no-cook oatmeal which one part oatmeal, one part milk, and one part greek yogurt in a covered bowl in the fridge overnight. I put blueberries and some agave on it in the…

I have a little Brussels Griffon, Max, who loves to walk. He gets so excited when I pick up his harness and then leaps off my lap and runs to the door as soon as it's off. We usually walk for at least 20 minutes, but I could pay attention more to how much we are doing and put in a solid 30 minutes. Unfortunately, I don't…

I have had pretty much the same problem and will just kinda ditto what other folks have been saying. My boyfriend likes to eat meat and potatoes kind of stuff, so he could care less if we have salad or veggies with dinner. I make them anyway and just eat more of the salad/veggies and eat a smaller portion of meat and may…

You can add me if you like. I don't really post anything except diet/exercise stuff.

Skinny Taste's Greek Turkey Meatballs http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/08/greek-turkey-meatballs.html and Tzatziki http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/08/skinny-tzatziki.html. I'll probably serve this up with some salad and pita, if I can find some decent low cal pitas.

I think I'll make the nachos from skinnytaste.com

First, I always try to make enough food for dinner to take some leftovers to work for lunch, except I usually swich it up a bit. So, if we have some type of meal with grilled chicken, I'll use some of the chicken to make a salad for lunch. I like to take apples or some other fruit and peanut or almond butter for a snack,…

Do you use canned chick peas for the crunchy snack mix?

I hadn't really put too much thought into it, but my boyfriend (who needs meat and a starch at every meal) is working tonight, so I have a bit flexibility. For some reason I was just remembering that I had heard of a grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwich. That sounds good. I might make it with almond butter and sliced…

Fruit...I like to get whatever looks good or is on sale and cut it all up and put it a big bowl in the fridge for a fresh fruit salad that I eat at some point everyday. Carrots...I like to make the big ones into carrot sticks. They seem to taste more carroty to me somehow than the baby cut kind. Natural nut butter...I…
