I'm probably not the one to answer a question about cutting weight, but I do make a very conscious effort to avoid the "light" version of almost everything. Usually it tends to be less healthy than the original version. I know there are exceptions, but I recommend using the regular version or eliminating it completely - especially salad dressings. Go with a vinaigrette instead.

I have a balsalmic vinagrette that I usually use in salads that's really tastes great and doesn't have a lot of carbs even though its made with maple syrup. I haven't been using it b/c I didn't think it would go with the chicken in salad since I've been eating chicken Cobb salads as a meal lately,

Here is link if someone's interested, best tasting of the like 14 different brand balsalmic vin. dressings I've tried when store ran out, 5 carbs and 3g fat per serving. I use it to marinade fish also before cooking.

Also, got my Nike Fuelband yesterday and started using it. It's pretty comfortable and light and even though it was my first day using it and didnt have a full day, I found myself out for a jog at 11pm trying to hit my daily goal. It's does a nice job of counting calories burned, but is best as a motivator and activity tracker. A few of the cons is the fact it works off motion from built in accelerometer, so cycling isn't recorded accurately unless you put it around your ankle or attach it to your shoe. Also, the activities that don't have a lot of arm movement, ie yoga, push ups, lifting. On the other hand, If you use their app to track activity, you can manually enter those activities to keep track of everything.

I go oatmeal or yogurt in the morning with some fruit. Lunch lean turkey on whole grain No Cheese. Or grilled chicken or some sort of fish. Dinner baby spinach and apple salad. No dressing, because im a boss. Most important thing is to allow yourself to cheat a meal or two a week. Also I could stand to drop like 5 lbs not 50 go fug your self Alice

Where is your protein? Is your goal just to lose weight or tone up? I'm just asking because I've done a lot of losing weight the wrong way for my body and I just kept going around in circles. You will lose weight on a diet like that, but some of the weight is going to be muscle mass.
