Ht. 5'7, Wt. N:270 QG:240 UG:130 - I'm so weak! They need to BAN me from the grocery store. I have set my goal of 55 pounds lost by December-End of December. I have a problem like-i'll eat healthy and wont exercise and then eat crapy and exercise. I totally suck. My dad went grocery shopping and almost everything he got had over 1gram of trans fat in it. I wanted to hurl, does anyone know if they have organic doughnuts? LOL! We made a homemade lasanga last night and none of my ingredients had trans-fat in it. Thank goodness. Is it okay for me to have a small piece and a huge salad with low-fat-low calorie dressing. A very small dinner and lots of DDR. I need to get myself back on track some how. It feels impossible sometimes. ARGH!
Reply from Stephanie, Age 14 - 08/29/06 - IP#: 71.134.197.xxx There isn't really a brand. Just go to the salad section of your grocery and look for a bag of salad that is dark green. And to sort of "wean" you into asparagus I'd suggest getting dark green Romaine lettuce first, then asparagus. Good luck!

Reply from Stephanie, Age 14 - 08/29/06 - IP#: 71.134.197.xxx I know how you feel! :] My dad and mom are both in shape and they think because they are and can eat whatever than I can eat whatever too. Here's the key: eat in small proportions. Pasta? Have a small piece. Pizza? Well, you'd probably be better off with a salad. :] And don't eat a huge helping of salad every night. Why? Salad EXPANDS YOUR STOMACH. Sorry, I had to write that in all caps just to make sure you weren't skipping over this ;) That doesn't mean to cut salad out - just don't eat the whole bag, or half the bag. And finally, when buying salad, don't buy iceberg, buy a dark green or one with asparagus. It may taste a bit different, but it's SO much healthier for you. Iceberg has NO nutrition, but the asparagus ones have tons, which helps you lose weight faster. Hope I helped, and good luck! :]
