    Why you need an Instant Pot to help with your weight loss

    I love my Instant Pot. There I said it. When I first got it, it was on a whim and I wondered if I’d get sick of it after all the online hype had died down. Well, the hype appears to be over and I still use my Instant Pot at least a few times a week. You toss in…

    How to get yourself to drink 3 liters of water every day

    We all know that we’re supposed to drink water instead of soda or coffee all day, but it can be tricky to pull it off. I drink at least 3 liters of water every day, and here’s how I manage it. First: the water has to be ice cold. Lots of ice. Second: it has to have more flavor than…

    How I plan my calories for effective weight loss while still feeling full

    For me, pre-planning what I’m going to eat each day is the only way I can reliably lose weight. I plan my calories using the Lose It iPhone app (also available on Android), and without that help I wouldn’t be successful. Below you can see how I essentially snack all day long. (Recipes included!) In addition to Lose It for…

    Tangy and filling low-calorie egg salad lunch recipe

    This is my favorite lunch – I serve it with a toasted slice of Keto bread and it is perfect! You just mix diced egg with cottage cheese (instead of mayo), sugar free sweet pickle relish, and mustard. Couldn’t be easier! I just ate the egg salad in the photos 2 minutes ago. It is so tasty and keeps me…

    Are you looking for a low-calorie treat that is both satisfying and filling? Have I got something great for you. Yogurt plus sugar free Jello pudding mix powder equals wonderfulness!

Welcome

I'm Violet, and you've found my healthy, low-calorie recipes.
I eat frequent low-calorie meals and snacks as well as a delicious low-calorie dessert every day.

I believe there are no "good" or "bad" foods: Food is not a moral choice. I eat all foods, some freely, and some in moderation.
