Has anyone else had a huge increase in vaginal discharge? I've never had it before and now I can't go without a pantyliner. It makes me feel so unclean.

Individual chicken Parmesan meatloaves with sautéed garlicky asparagus. One meatloaf is 141 calories and so filling.

Last night was turkey chili with lots of different kinds of beans and roasted red and poblano peppers, topped with lowfat cheese and plain nonfat Greek yogurt. Tonight its chicken pesto cauliflower crust pizza...hubby's request.

Family can be the most toxic people in your life. I used to get that speech all the time when I first cut off my grandmother and then my father. My response has always been that my family is supposed to love me, support me, and treat me better than a stranger on the street. If they can't do that, then they are related by blood, but they aren't my family. I cut my dads mother off 7 years ago and my dad 3 years ago. Not only was it the best decision I ever made for my own emotional health, but I'm also protecting my children from their toxicity. Not everyone's family is worth the effort.

What did you think?

You guys crack me up. Sorry, I was crazy busy at work today and just saw this. If you're grilling the tilapia, try doing a creole seasoning and a lemon garlic remoulade. Or you could do a lemon pepper seasoning and make a veggie tartar sauce. Greek yogurt, lemon juice, salt, pepper, grated carrot, chopped cucumber, red pepper and a little bit of pickle. I did tilapia tonight too. Seasoned with salt and pepper. Topped with a tablespoon of garlic aioli and a teaspoon of Parmesan, baked at 350 for about 12 minutes. Yum.

Baked tilapia topped with homemade garlic aioli and Parmesan, sautéed asparagus with garlic and lemon.

Ground chicken and black bean tacos with homemade taco sauce, wrapped in Boston lettuce. I too mine with a little lowfat Mexican cheese, tomato, avocado and a dollop of Greek yogurt.

Tonight it's garlic Parmesan chicken. This same recipe is fantastic on tilapia. I layer a seasoned chicken breast on sliced onions. Top with a scant TB of my garlic aioli and sprinkle a tsp of lowfat Parmesan on top. Roast at 400 until chicken is done. Garlic aioli 3/4 good quality lowfat mayo 3 cloves fresh garlic, grated 1 Tb fresh lemon juice Lots of fresh pepper and a pinch of kosher salt. Mix together and let sit at least a half hour. Great on everything lol. Also having green beans sautéed with garlic and almonds. We love garlic.

My husband keeps telling me the same thing. I just really, really love to cook. And if I can only eat a few bites of something it had better taste delicious!

Lol. Michigan. I hope you like cold weather and construction

Salmon burgers, garlic aioli, sautéed garlicky asparagus and roasted butternut squash.

A turkey sandwich made on Boston lettuce instead of bread.

Tonight it's salmon patties and a white bean, tomato and spinach sauté.

Tonight it's spinach and artichoke chicken and steamed broccoli.

Lol thanks! I made an asparagus and smoked salmon frittata tonight. Quick and easy.

1 head of cauliflower chopped into small pieces 1/2 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt 1 can 99% fat free cream of chicken soup 1 onion diced 1 cup reduced fat sharp cheddar Salt and pepper Microwave diced cauliflower for 4 minutes. Use paper towel to blot up any liquid. Add everything else except enough of the cheese to cover the top. Mix together well. Add remaining cheese. Bake at 375 for 30 min. You won't miss cheesy potatoes. It's so good.

Tonight it's individual chicken parm meatloaves with cheesy cauliflower casserole.

Slowly. I still get lightheaded easily but I take it slowly.
