Got it pretty cheap at Amazon.
Seriously, nearly something tasty sounding on every page. Fairly straight forward recipes from a little browsing thus far. LOL, the trade winds have been howling at 25mph with gusts to 35mph, so no beaching it for now. Sand blowing at that speed results in that full body exfoliation thing...ouch!

Ketones make everything better. Better sleep. Better mornings. Better energy. Better fat loss. Better strength. Better mood. ~Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry & fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism & solutions, you will cultivate success ~Lao Tzu

CarolAnn, I really want that Taste of Home cookbook! I keep hearing about it on here and it sounds awesome

WOWSERS!!
Got the Taste of Home Comfort Food (diet) Cookbook from amazon.com in the mail and every page I turn to has yet another great sounding recipe! Times are tight and have to save up for the ESBM cookbook....even on amazon, it was a little steep for an "I wanna" item. The quarter, nickle & dime saver stash is now labeled "ESBM." Gotta stay on budget and be thrifty! Carol - Houston, TX (it's weird to see this and not Kaua'i, Hawaii)

I like to go to www.recipezaar.com/
Mind you, the recipes are not always low anything, but I've been able to get great ideas and switch out the high calorie/fat items for more healthy ones. Even have a few of my own personal recipes posted there!! Carol - Houston, TX (it's weird to see this and not Kaua'i, Hawaii)

wow I love the idea of the chapters being by calorie range!
|
|
I recently got the "TasteOfHome Comfort Food Diet Cookbook" The book is really pretty with lots of glossy color pictures, and the chapters are broken down by calorie range - very helpful. I've made three recipes so far and all were good. Last night I made the Chicken Marsala and it was a hit with both me and my man... and just 247 calories meant room for a small serving of linguine without blowing my dinner calorie budget

I like the monthly 5 ingredient recipe from Womens Health mag. Fitness mag usually has some great recipes.
I also sometimes cook from the south beach diet book (there is a great vegetarian chili i keep making)

Ugh, thanks for the heads up. I skimmed the recipes quickly but yeah, I have never cooked with artificial sweeteners and don't plan on it.

Has anyone ever tried recipes from the Healthy Girl website or books? I've always been curious but for some reason never got around to it.

I have found some really tasty ones on Prevention. In addition, I love Cooking Light, EatingWell, and Eat This Not That.

I've enjoyed a few SP recipes and I like Prevention too. Also, I love Healthy Exchanges cookbooks by Joanna M. Lund.....
Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance!
2017 and I am back again... up and down the same 5 lbs, this time on the higher side of 200, depressing since I had stayed just under 200 for almost a year. Slim is where I wanted to be in 201 & 2011! Never happened, plateaued for a long time and gave up... got off track, but never left, so am back on track again!!! Make 2012 my year! So far, did finally lose 25 lbs. over the summer, but have found about 11 of it so far, it didn't hide g

I'll have to check out that website! Thanks for posting

Another website I like when eating out is dwlz (Dottie's Weight Loss Zone)
|

The hubby and I are using a "eat clean" cook book. Forget who the author is..but so far it's been pretty good. It's very straight forwards and easy to follow. None of the recipes are too hard...only thing is trying to find some of the ingredients..like whole grain orzo and whole grain type stuff.

What other websites or cookbooks are you using?
I haven't tried any SP recipes yet, but I really want to try a frozen banana "ice cream" one that keeps popping up! I will try to find the link. I also love www.prevention.com for healthy recipes. Edited by: SOPHIKKO at: 2/11/2010 (11:33)
