Just sharing some awesome recipes for Coffee flavored Choc Delight and seriously the best steak fajitas I have ever had. Beats any restaurant I have ever been to. If you are in P3 add Guac, sour cream, lots more cheese, and I personally add refried beans and have no scale troubles but, some would tell you that you cant have the refried beans. Just letting you know that I am able to get away with it. I also read the south beach diet from cover to cover and really learned so much about nutrition. I recommend everyone on this Protocol read that book. I think the knowledge that I gained from that book was what has enabled me to go outside the protocol and make smart decisions about what I eat while on HCG and of course watching other people on Youtube experiment and then try for myself. video.

Nina Simonds visits the kitchens of America’s Test Kitchen (americastestkitchen.com) on the day they were trying THIRTEEN recipes for the ‘Best Brownie Recipe Ever’!! “Unfortunately, I had to leave before the tasting. But who doesn’t love a good brownie or two with a glass tall glass of cold milk? YUM!MIE!!! I love chocolate, BUT I am not as much a devotee as my Dad, brother, and my husband who MUST have a bite of chocolate EVERY day. My Dad and brother are BIG Hershey’s fans, but my husband, Don, has cultivated a love for DEEP, DARK chocolate. However, when it comes to brownies, that is another matter. I confess that I am a die-hard brownie lover-… Either the plain chocolate variety, no nuts please, AS WELL AS cream cheese, OR chocolate chip/butterscotch brownie variations. Don’t ask me why, but Don and my son Jesse, prefer chocolate chip cookies. We ALWAYS have some frozen ones on hand in my freezer-courtesy of my talented assistant, Ingrid, who is a KILLER baker!” America’s test Kitchen and Cooks Illustrated fans will have to wait until January to see their version of the Best Dark Chocolate Brownie Recipe Ever, but in the meantime, go to www.spicesoflife.com for Nina Simonds favorite brownie recipe ever. Enjoy and don’t forget the cold milk!!!

thefatsgone.com American’s are waging a losing battle against overweight and obesity, despite the best efforts of many who have tried time and again to lose weight and failed. Two-thirds of those people indicate they’re on some type of weight reduction program, yet 95% will be unable to maintain any type of weight loss for more than a year. Most people trying to lose weight understand that a healthy diet and exercise are essential to drop pounds, but despite their best efforts, sustainable weight loss is beyond reach. It’s important to understand the reasons which prevent weight loss, as well as the steps which should be followed to help trigger the body’s metabolism into fat burning action. Underestimating Calories In a study by the USDA, 80% of participants underestimated the number of calories consumed in a day by 700. The most common miscalculation is in serving size, especially when judging the highest calories items such as desserts, breads and pasta. Always use a dietary scale to weigh food items and keep track of everything you eat using a dietary log. Balance Fat Intake Fats have been maligned for the last half century because of a poor understanding of this essential nutrient. The problem is with the type of fats we eat. Highly processed or overcooked trans-fats from frying are typically coupled with refined carbohydrates, leading to a recipe for weight gain. Replace trans-fats with oils in their natural state, especially Omega-3 fats from fish, nuts and seeds …
