Day you weigh in? Thursday mornings
Favorite food/recipe since starting diet? I don't really have a "diet" food since I know I won't do well if I feel like I'm deprived of anything. Instead I'm eating what I normally eat, just less of it. I'm a generally pretty healthy eater but I'm eliminating things like a bag of chips with my sandwitch at lunch, no snacks before dinner once I get home from work (totally guilty of that) and no food at all after 8PM since your body doesn't have time to burn all the calories you consume after that hour.
Exercise routine/activity/etc.? right now I'm doing crunches, push-ups, and weight training and toning excercises. H and I bought a treadmill which is being delivered this Saturday so I will start using that for 1/2 hour each day on top of my current routine, and now that the weather is getting nicer we'll be taking more walks and my all time favorite excercise - swimming!

If you get the light, it's only 1 point per wedge. I'm working on my package of queso fresco and chipotle pepper, and it is AWESOME!

After I originally shared it, I know some of the ladies tried it and I think we all changed it up for ourselves. I didn't use the bay leaves, or blue cheese. The only cheese i used was the Parm and then low fat cheddar.
Thank you dear!
Diet plan? Metabolism Miracle. Basically a modified Atkins where I eat 5 grams of carbs every 5 hours. It's hell for the first 2 months, then you ease back in w/ whole grains, etc.
Total weight loss so far? 10lbs (I have PLENTY to lose, so it comes off fast in the beginning)
How long on diet? 9 days
Day you weigh in? Monday mornings
Favorite food/recipe since starting diet? Potato-less soup. Made w/ cauliflower instead of potatoes. You'd never know the difference if I didn't tell you, SO yummy! I'm also trying a low carb chili tomorrow night, can't wait!
Exercise routine/activity/etc.? Anything and everything. Mixing it up w/ Jillian, Sean T (INSANITY dvds), P90x, walking the dog, running on the treadmill or just lifting weights while watching Biggest Loser
My brother and I are doing our own biggest loser challenge. From now until mid-May. We're both going to Vegas in June and want to look better. $300 at stake and right now I'm smoking him w/ 3.86% weight lost to his .36% We also created a group on FB, so our friends/family can keep up w/ us & encourage us.
First of all, can you share the recipe??
Second, that is awesome!!!
This is from memory, so I hope I didn't leave anything out
1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
32 oz chicken broth
1/2 cup sour cream (I use low fat)
1/2 cup or more of shredded cheddar cheese (also low fat)
1/2 stick butter
pinch of salt & pepper to taste
handful of chopped green onions & handful of bacon bits
Over medium heat, add cauliflower to broth. Bring to a boil or until cauliflower has softened. Reserve the broth and mash the cauliflower (i use a blender or food processor).
In a separate bowl add sour cream, butter and cheese. Pour mashed cauliflower over mixture to fully melt butter and cheese. Add mixture back to broth and simmer (or eat right away). Add s&p if needed and garnish with green onions and bacon bits.
FYI, Original recipe says to add bacon to soup while simmering, but I don't like my bacon mushy. So I add it right before I eat it. <drool> I need to go to lunch...
