OK Experts,

I don't feel like doing the math on this one... I was thinking about lettuce wraps for a L & G. They are made with chicken, mushroom, and spicy soy sauce.

Here are the stats from a local restaurant:
Calories 260
Fat 7g
Fiber 8g
Carbs 28g
Protein 20

Are the carbs and fat too high? Is the protein too low?

I know I would need to add an extra side of green ...

Okay! :cry: I know I know...I shouldn't have! :roll: But I was miserable coughing like anything for past 2 days...no sleep....no energy :cry: ...on top of that .... Mom is visiting from my country and made a great home-made meal that I haven't had ...

Hello All!!! Can we have turnips??? I was reading a magazine and it said as treat for replacement of french fries when someone is on a "diet" that cutting up turnips, coating them with olive oil and salting them... then baking them crispy!! this sounds awesome, but is it too good to be true?????? Would this work for my "green"????
thanks!!!!

Many of you may have noticed that I've been a little absent lately. Work has been hectic, I haven't been following the program, and I was embarassed. and felt like I had let everybody down (especially me). I haven't been on a scale in over two weeks, so I don't know if or how much I've gained.

I offer no excuses. I like the program. I am getting back on track today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

No ... I won't be having any cake, today, but my hubby and I are going out to dinner. I will be following the L/G guidelines but since I do the full fast, this is going to be a real treat. I'm looking up restaurants, right now, so I can have a gameplan b4 I even get to the restaurant. Anybody got any favorites or tips?

Hi, I am just wondering how late in the evening that we should complete our 5-1 plan each day? With my new energy found in the MF plan, I find that certain nights are wakeful ones, which, in turn, leads to morning sleep-ins. Having a body clock which is programmed to having worked evenings and nights for 38 years doesn't help, either. I would appreciate any ideas or advice on scheduling meals that begin on ...

OK.. I'm even more excited this week!!!

I had to double check the scale, and I weigh at the Dr.s office every week....

Another 7 pounds lost. No one can say its water weight now!!!! :water:

I'm almost in the 30 pound club.. Here I come!!! :drive:

I called my health advisor to share.. I was just so thrilled! ...

WASHINGTON — A huge federal study in people, not rats, takes the fizz out of arguments that the diet-soda sweetener aspartame might raise the risk of cancer.
No increased risk was seen even among people who gulped down many artificially sweetened drinks a day, said researchers who studied the diets of more than half a million older Americans.
A consumer group praised the study, done by reputable researchers independent ...
