Wonderful (LOW CALORIE) Dinner Last night

Just thought I would share with you all a recipe that I got out of our George Forman Cookbook. It was FANTASTIC- so much flavor :)

Pineapple Honey Chicken Breasts:

1/4 c. Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1t. Ginger
1t. Vegetable Oil (I used EVOO)
1 Clove Garlic
2 T. Honey
4 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast Halves
4 Fresh Pineapple Slice (or canned)

Mix the soy sauce, ginger, EVOO, garlif and honey. Put the chicken on the grill and spoon sauce over each piece. Allow to grill for 3 minutes (or 4 if you don't cut it in 1/2) flip and get some sauce on the other side. Grill for 3-4 minutes. Then place the pineapple on the chicken and grill for 3-4 more minutes until the Chicken in cooked all the way through. SUPER YUMMY!

Trick I learned with this recipe: Cut Chicken breasts to 1/2 thickness- doubles the amount you've got and lowers the calories if you only have one- we saved our second half for lunch today!

As a side, we had lemon garlic grilled zucchini- Super easy. Zucchini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic (minced), pepper and salt! Only needs to grill or sautee for 4-5 minutes.

Did I mention the whole meal, which was very filling, for both my husband and myself was only 300 calories?

Enjoy!

Superbowl Sunday

Well, It was as difficult as I imagined! There was so much food (all cooked by me, so I tasted along the way) But I actually ate a big healthy lunch so I didn't have much room for the not so healthy stuff. I may need to do this more often. That way I don't have room for the unhealthy stuff :)

How are all of you doing?

(PS I was down another 2 lbs last week!)

8 Fat Fighting Food Recipes

Thanks so much to one of the readers for sharing this article! I love some of the suggestions they have- like a homemade vinegrette- I'm going to try cranberry :)

I'm not a huge fan of nuts- but I love some of the other items on the list! Like sweet potatoes...mmmm I'm getting dinner ideas.

Weigh in!

I'm pleased to announce that I'm down another 3 pounds this week!

I know Superbowl Sunday will be tough with all of the food, so I'm going to make sure that I eat well and go to the gym a little more this week to prepare!

I'm wondering how many of you plan your meals ahead? Like the whole week in advance? I'm considering it, but I know it would be a lot of work- although this way I can monitor calories a bit more and can hopefully prevent the random cookie snacks that sometimes I want.

I'm about ready to order another bottle of healthy trim! I'm so happy with the results- almost camera ready:)

The Gym This Past Week....

I'm proud to say that I woke up at 5am for the past week and have gone to the gym each day! It made me a bit hungrier throughout the day (even with the Healthy Trim) But I made sure to eat healthy foods and I can't wait for tomorrow's weigh in!

I'm a bit nervous because I know muscle weighs more than fat- so if I gained any muscle in the fat loss, I might not lose anything-but I know that I went to the gym and I know that I worked hard- so I feel good about it!

How is everyone doing at the gym?

Good Cheese

Ok, so I heard a rumor that White Cheeses are better than colored (yellow) cheeses. Does anyone know why this might be or have any information on this? I usually have white cheese anyway, but I'd like to know if there is any validity to this! Thanks!

Weigh In.

After weighing in, I've lost three lbs this week:) Eating regularly and more well balanced meals-

How are all of you doing?
