You call that a "mentor"???
My husband started a new job driving trucks. He was gone for 4 days before his "mentor" kicked him out of the truck in Oregon because Dustin did not share this guys religious beliefs. The guy also called him a failure because we haven't been married long, have no kids, and do not own our own home or business. Seriously,…

She thinks she's helping...
There is a lady I work with who is aware of how much I have lost and that I am continuing to work on it. She has recently renewed her goal to lose weight but she's doing it by just cutting stuff out (which is her choice). She knows that I use this site and I watch calories but ever since she started her new diet, she's…

No Food Temptations...
So, when I started this journey in March last year, I cut fast food out of my diet. Not that I ate it all that often but still...but, if I REALLY had a craving, I would go get something small (after looking up calories)...however, in August I moved and it didn't hit me until today how beneficial that move has been. I now…

Road Trip - what to eat?
I am driving from Montana to Seattle on Sunday and back a few days later. Approx 10 hours each way. I am going by myself so won't be stopping anywhere. I am taking snacks with me that I already am familiar with as far as calories go 1) to eat some in the car and 2) so I don't have to purchase any when I'm there when I have…

Sauces/condiments
Does anyone else have a hard time remembering to add the small stuff? If I use sugar, creamer, ketchup, ranch...etc and I use less than the serving size, I often forget to add it to my diary. I know it adds up but I don't use these things daily by any means. But, these are things that I know how much the serving size is…

Bagels!
I just found 100 cal mini bagels! Many of you may have already discovered these but I try to stay away from the bread aisle so I have not seen them before! But, finding them made my night! They had whole wheat and cinnamon/sugar! Now I don't have to give into my bagel cravings for 300+ cal each!

Onion Baked Turkey
Fried food has been something I've had a difficult time staying away from. I love chicken strips/nuggets anything like that. However, I have found a recipe that is great and gets rid of that urge without the calories. 1 pkg Turkey Breast Cutlets (its 120 cal for a serving 4oz, usually 4.5servings in a pkg = about 6 slices…
