Foods	help with eating my veggies!!!	Mar 08 2008 14:43 (UTC)	3
do you have a hu hot or some other mongolian grill around you? might be a good introduction to eating something with a lot of veggies but a LOT of flavor. I fill my bowl with chicken and lots of veggies plus sauce...no noodles....and YUM!!! According to CC the sauces are actually not too bad in calories, either...might be a good thing to try, and then if you like it you could try to replicate it at home.

Foods	how do i get MORE FIBER?!?	Feb 10 2008 12:42 (UTC)	10
a bowl of fiber one in the morning will give you more than half the days fiber. follow up with lots of veggies, beans, and whole grains and you'll be above 25 easy. I drink metamucil a couple of times a day as well. adds fiber and fills me up pre meal so I'm not as hungry.
The Lounge	Quick question. What brand of eye cream do you use? (no drug store brand pls)	Feb 05 2008 01:30 (UTC)
I am currently loving the Philosophy line of skin care...and I use Arbonne eye cream. Pure ingredients and really nice on my skin.
Foods	What do you eat for breakfast?	Feb 02 2008 16:09 (UTC)	7
I go to work at 4 in the morning so I take a lot of portables to work that I can easily eat....hard boiled eggs (eat one with the yolk, one without), clementines, grapefruit to peel and eat, I keep a box of fiber one and I can get milk out of the machine, pb and whole grain toast, yogurts, etc. Then I just try to balance my protein and fiber. On weekends we do veggie omelets, wraps, high fiber muffins, stuff like that. today was a low carb tortilla smeared with black refried beans with a cup of sauteed yellow peppers and a cup of sauteed spinach. yum.

Here's a novel idea....ASK...if they can't tell you the calorie count then it's definitely not worth eating....donuts generally range from 200-300 calories, and if you can figure out how to make that work in your day for a splurge, I say go for it.

Weight Loss	Calories in roast dinner?	Jan 13 2008 13:49 (UTC)
yikes....lard? 2 tsp. of lard has 90 calories and 10 grams of fat. And 20% of your saturated fat. You'll want to try to figure out how much lard was used so you can determine what you consumed, and then get the calories for the other foods. And while I said yikes..I'm sure it tasted heavenly lol.
