Goat cheese with avocado, walnut pesto and watercress
This was a vegetarian dish I made last night from Tom Colicchio's 'wichcraft book. The recipe calls for celery, but I'm not a fan, so I just seasoned the goat cheese with celery seed. The calories from the fat are coming from the pesto and the vinaigrette, but also the avocado, which is good fat, I believe. Calories: 499…

Sesame-crusted tuna with watercress salad
http://foodchain09.wordpress.com/2012/11/08/sesame-crusted-tuna/ I haven't had the chance to calculate the calories, etc., but it's just seared tuna with a salad. Fat's coming from the dressing on the salad which has some sesame oil in it. Enjoy!

Chilled Watercress & Spinach Soup
Here's a healthy one I just posted. Light soup, which will be a welcome addition after I cave and eat Halloween candy tonight. Stay strong, folks! http://foodchain09.wordpress.com/2012/10/31/chilled-watercress-and-spinach-soup/

Angel hair pasta with shrimp, peppers & tomatoes
Here's one I really enjoy making. Sometimes I sub the shrimp for some diced chicken if I'm in the mood. It's a Gordon Ramsay dish that he claims is a good starter, but I ate it as my whole meal with a glass of blush wine. http://foodchain09.wordpress.com/2012/06/07/32/

It's a yoga program with dynamic resistance built in to act as a form of cardio. I do a workout every morning, or just replace an outdoor run when it's raining or…

A couple of my recipes...
I'm new to the message board portion of this site, but I've been here for maybe a month since coming over from another program. I don't think this violates any rules since I'm not benefiting financially from this, but if it is a problem, please let me know and I'll remove this topic. Anyway, cooking is a hobby of mine,…

Creamy cucumber chive cups
Just posted this one. Delicious and healthy recipe that I got from Whole Foods. The base is vegetarian, then you can stay veggie with it or add little toppings of your own without feeling like you're pigging out. http://foodchain09.wordpress.com/2012/10/24/creamy-cucumber-chive-cups/

I WILL be 155
I was a fat kid. Probably because I lived on soda and ate snacks constantly. Seriously, it was not outside the norm for me to go to school, come home and eat a bowl of sour cream and onion dip, then overportion myself with dinner. Hell, I used to eat 9 pancakes for breakfast like it was nothing, so long as there was bacon…
