Guest guest Posted November 30, 2000 Report Share Posted November 30, 2000 Finally after six months, I have seen the scale numbers go down!! I weighed myself the day I started my journal (Saturday) and I was four pounds heavier than I am today! I don't think I lost four real pounds in a week though. When I weighed myself Saturday, I was two pounds heavier than usual, which was probably bloating or something. But I do think I lost a true two pounds! Yay!! I am on my way!! who is happy to be in the groove again and can't wait for my replacement VCR to show up so I can get back to Tae-Bo!!

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2000 Report Share Posted December 1, 2000 Finally after six months, I have seen the scale numbers go down!! Yey ! Like, you, I started using a food journal this week too. I have gained some weight this Fall---due to lack of consistent exercise and crappy food intake (I let my busy schedule get the best of me). Sunday is my weigh-in. Congrats!!! ~Kat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2000 Report Share Posted December 1, 2000 Congratulations, ! Now put that scale away for good! Thanks! I know how inaccurate scales are, but I have decided to weigh in once a week, just to hold myself accountable. If this scale misehaves or if I get obsessive again, it will meet the same fate as the last one! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2000 Report Share Posted December 1, 2000 Congratulations ! Hey - 2 lbs is a great loss, especially after the scale hasn't moved for some time. Ann Marie - who while on WW gained 4 lbs from " bloating " and got a nasty look from the lady who recorded the weight; then took off 6 lbs the very next week and had the last word! > Finally after six months, I have seen the scale numbers go down!!

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2000 Report Share Posted December 1, 2000 Yeah on seeing the scale number go down...thats an awsome feeling..I don't own a scale but I can only hope that by my cloths getting loser..something is going away whether it be fat or pounds...I'm gonna check into that brocolli and cheese you mentioned..however, I hate to do this..but I have to see what the fat content is..that is my main concern...I don't usually go heavy in the calorie department, therefore I have been cutting back on fat grams which for me has made a world of difference..not to mention..i have a sensitive stomach and eating less fatty foods has really helped..so, if it isn't loaded w/ fat I'm gonna get some cuz I'm a bad veggie eater otherwise... Anyways, long winded here but wanted to say Way to Go!!!! Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2000 Report Share Posted December 1, 2000 ....I'm gonna check into that brocolli and cheese you mentioned..however, I hate to do this..but I have to see what the fat content is..that is my main concern... The cauliflower has 180 calories and 7.5 grams of fat in the whole box. Of the 7.5 grams of fat, only 1.5 g is saturated. The broccoli may be slightly higher, just by a gram or so. Remember that some fat is good, it's the saturated that you really need to keep an eye on. who had the mixed veggies with cheese for lunch yesterday! Yum!!

Yum!! hate to rain on yout parade but trans fat from hydrogenated oils is worse than saturated fat which I suspect may be in this product Barb who luckily can eat veggies without cheese though loves cheese Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2000 Report Share Posted December 3, 2000 I use olive oil, which is actually GOOD FOR YOU. I take olive oil, about, I dunno, 2-3 tablespoons, heat it on low-medium (it heats quickly!) and add the same amount of flour . . . mix it. Once thickened, add milk and shredded cheese! I also add ground mustard and whatever else I feel like, and I usually use different cheeses. Sounds good! I may try that someday The thing is, I am pretty lazy and love to just throw things in the microwave! LOL! who just ran six miles in the snow for my marathon training!

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 I'm sorry I thin that you're fooling yourself, I don't think that anything that laden with fat could be remotely considered healthy, and although olive oil is supposedly better for you is it still 100% fat, and most cheeses rack up a high ratio of calories from fat. And 2-3 tablespoons thats up to 400 calories alone..ouch Jill who's glad to be intolerant to cheese and lots of high fat dairy foods, so healthy eating is a lot easier to choose. > Being a broccoli smothered with cheese sauce lover, I must interject! , you can have even YUMMIER cheese sauce, and save money, AND be way healthy, by making it at home.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 Sandie! I'm glad you find that useful. If it looks too thick while cooking, before adding the cheese, add a little water. Same thing if you want to reheat it, just add some water. I like to experiment with stuff, I throw a little paprika in there at times . . . .depending on my mood. Dooji - woman of foods Re: Yay!

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 I never said that cheese was healthy. I said that olive oil is GOOD FOR YOU.
