    You can have sweet baked goods while losing weight

    You already know I love EZ Sweetz sucralose sweetener, but I don’t cook or bake with it. For cooking and baking I like zero calorie Swerve erythritol and allulose sweetener. It comes in several forms: granulated (like table sugar), powdered (like confectioner’s sugar), and brown, and each works very well for baking. It replaces sugar 1:1, so if your recipe…

    Keeping depression at bay for winter weight loss

    I live in the Northern Hemisphere, and from late August until March when the time changes I use a full-spectrum SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) Lamp to keep me from getting the “winter blues” from the dim light of winter. When I’m depressed I’m much less likely to stick to a diet plan because I just figure ‘to hell with it’…

    My delicious breakfast smoothie recipe

    Every single morning I have 2 cups of coffee around 6am, and they keep me full for a couple of hours. Then at 9:30 I have a smoothie. A delicious, filling low-calorie smoothie that I look forward to every day. At only 185 calories it doesn’t blow my whole calorie budget for the day either. What do you think? Would…

    How I figured out how many calories to eat to lose weight

    Recently I said to a friend that I was going to aim for 1,200 calories a day in order to lose weight, but that was just me guessing at what the right number should be.
