I can't get enough recipes for lean, nutritious meals that don't require an hour in the kitchen or processed ingredients.

I'm such a cookbook addict -- chances are if it has colorful pictures and easy recipes I'll buy it. Have you seen Donna Hay's cookbooks? I'd love to see more like those.

Normally, I put blueberries, ground flax, protein powder, and agave nectar in my oatmeal. Or pumpkin instead of blueberries. But today, I did banana, almond butter, mini chocolate chips, ground flax, protein powder, and almond milk. It was sooo good! It tasted more like a dessert than breakfast! I think I would have liked to add a little more almond milk b/c it was so thick after I added all the goodies. But most importantly, it got the BF's stamp of approval! Thanks!

I've looked at Earth Fare, grocery store, and Target...but no luck. You've probably mentioned it before, but where did you find it? I really want to try butterscotch coffee because it sounds so good!

Kate ,
My best advice: put your heart and soul into your photos. Take the time to find natural light and get a couple good views.

rebecca ,
YES! I forgot the coconut :)

Lindsay ,
I don’t know what kind of Mex. vanilla it is because we got it in a jar from Matt’s grandma, but it was cheap and is very good.

Melissa ,
it sounds like you know why you’re stuck: something happens and I gain it right back. You need to work on figuring out the “something” and how it’s connected to eating.

It seems like every time I lose 2 pounds something happens and I gain it right back. I'm never going to get these 10 pounds I gained at the end of last year off at this rate. I was trying the "eat in moderation" concept but does that maybe not work when trying to lose weight and it's more a concept to but in place when maintaining? I'm just so frustrated and discouraged. I know my goal is not unreasonable. I've been there and maintained it before. But I just can't seem to get back to it... Hey Kath~ How did you balance day to day life with losing weight.

Everything on the market is geared towards families. Lots of pictures are always a plus. Budget friendly and easy to find ingredients is another thing I look for in cookbooks. I live in a small, rural town so our grocery store doesn't care specialty items or uncommon ingredients. And I just graduated college so affordable food is a must! I would also love a guide to spices. I never know what spices to pair with which foods/how much of a spice to use.
