It’s where we (meaning me and possibly Jen) will prepare your favorite holiday treats – weight loss surgery style! Let me ask you something. Are you sick of going to Thanksgiving dinner and watching your family eat gravy by the bucketful, …

  ~by Nikki True story: when I was young, my stepfather, a devout Baptist, used to give us each $2 to put in the collection plate at church. Now MOST of the time I was a good girl and gave the cash up to God. But eeeeevery once in a while…I will admit…I pocketed a couple of the coins (sorry God…I’ll …

~by Nikki Bon-bon madness is catching on. Have you made yours yet? No? Well maybe a nice testimonial from our friend Lucia in Rhode Island might convince you. She says: I love this recipe! To shake the pieces of banana in, I didn’t have any of the things you listed. So I took some Fiber One twigs and a little …

by Nikki Ok, so let me run down my theory about cookies. They are not evil. They’re not the devil incarnate. They were not put on this earth to destroy me. HOWEVER, they are very easy to overeat. So I have cookie rules: Nik only eats sugar-free cookies (an obvious one) Nik only eats cookies in the presence of others …

~~by Nikki Ok, so here’s the deal. Life has been sort of crazy lately. And I’ve been promising these bon-bon’s FOREVER. You’ve lost faith in the fact that I’ll ever post them. I understand. If I were you, I would have too. So first off let me apologize for that! The hold up is that I don’t have a pic. …

~~posted by Jen OK, we know it’s not even Labor Day yet, but Summer is winding down and we’ve been thinking about Fall.  Of course, we had to poll our friends and see what Fall recipes you are most looking forward to!  Debby B, one of our FaceBook fans, responded to the Poucher Poll today and asked about Pumpkin in …

There was a time, not so long ago, that I was very opposed to protein bars. Because I only tended to see protein bars at 7-Eleven and Wal-Mart, I had the idea that they were all carb heavy and no better for you than a candy bar.
