Hi fellow VSG'ers,

I hope you are having a good Tuesday.

In my continuing saga, I stopped the Xanax yesterday (which I was taking to help me sleep)  after realizing that one of its side effects is weight gain.  My weight was down two po

Hi All,

I hope you had a nice weekend and are enjoying this beautiful day.

I continue to be frustrated with my weight gain.  I am only eating 900 to 1100 calories a day and my weight continues to rise.  I wondered what had changed, and

Hi All,

I went out for lunch with my son and grandkids.  I had fish and chips, going light on the chips, but it was still a lot more calories than I should have had.  Sigh - tomorrow is another day...

 

Breakfast - skipped

Hi All,

I've been so good on my diet this week, and every day the scale has been crawling up a few tenths.  I keep reminding myself what I tell everyone else:  "That if you are eating less calories than you are burning, you are burning fat, no

Hi all,

I was getting bored with my usual chicken dishes, and I tried this today and I loved it.  Easy, tasty and low cal/low carb.

I had it in my recipe box for a long time. I'm glad I finally tried it.

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all had good weekends.  I went out for Chinese brunch yesterday, and ordered off the menu to avoid the carbs.  But the beef dish I got was really sweet - yummy but not so good for the diet!  Oh well.  So we are back on p

Hi I tried this yesterday for a change of pace and I really liked it.  The original recipe includes spaghetti and sage butter sauce, which I eliminated due to calories and carbs.  I didn't figure out how many carbs are in the marmalade, but it makes at

Hi Everyone,

Happy weekend!  I'm reorganizing my house today, since we just finished the reconstruction after our burst pipe at the end of February.  So lots of foot-steps and lots of flights of stairs.  The scale is down a bit since I gave up

Hi everyone,

In my continuing saga of trying to get back on track, I had a meal before I left for the party last night, thinking I'd avoid the appetizers and make it to the main course.  Well, the party was all appetizers and deserts!  so that

Hi All,

Happy weekend.

We are going to a friends birthday party this evening, so I don't think this will be a good diet day. Those appetizers always overcome me.  But I'll do my best to stay on track.

Breakfast - salmon

Hi all,

Happy Friday.  We just got new floors put in after a month-long construction project due to a frozen and burst pipe while we were away.  So the end of the chaos is in sight.  They will put the last coat of finish on the floors tomorrow,

Good Morning, All.

I had a low carb day yesterday, and I'm hoping I'll be back on plan today and start to get rid of those extra pounds.  I'm going to cook a few meals today.  Anyone have ideas for casseroles with left-over ham?

Hi All,

Happy Hump day!  I'm still struggling to get to the weight loss mind-set.  I do well, until the evening when I eat humus and crackers.  I'm going to try to exercise more to offset the extra calories and then stop buying humus!!!  Plus I

This is a recipe I made recently.  I used PB2 for the peanut butter to save a few calories.  It was a nice change from the usual chicken and easy to make.  I skip the rice.
