Breakfast option
In the last month I found a new breakfast option that I really like. Tasty, filling, and fairly low cal. Here's my adaptation. I'll recheck the calorie count, but I think it's 70 cal for one mini quiche. I'd suggest 2 at 140, plus other items to get up to around 300 for breakfast. For me, that's usually a banana and a…

Welcome!
Our goal is to put together a 1400 calorie menu. I went ahead and invited all members of team WHITE and team GREEN to this group. I'm not a big fan of seeing people go - we're all on the same journey - and this is a good exercise we can all contribute to and learn from. So, recipe ideas??? We could also start with some…

Everyone will be gone except 1 by the end. The important thing is to stay focused on weight loss. I hope we can all continue to support each…

In an alternate universe...
Well, I was feeling depressed about the elimination. But then I realized that eventually all but one contestant will be eliminated. That helped me move on. I had a great run tonight. I ate well today. Tonight I went and heard three runners who ran in the marathon Olympic trials in Houston. They were such nice people.…

Recipes
PhasedAngel suggested we start a group to help motivate each other. I haven't been part of a group, but I'm game, so here goes. So far I have myself and phasedangel as moderators. As far as I'm concerned, we can all be moderators, so if you want to be, just let met me know. Starting topic: My understanding of weight loss…
