I've never had an issue getting my veggies in... I was a vegetarian until Flint Jr. came along.... portion control in general has always been my weakness... carbs to be specific... I could live on them... I have an undergrad in Holistic Nurtrition, yet I have managed to pack on the pounds and not lose them all yet... and I'm talking about 60 pounds I have to lose... not that Flint is counting... he likes some meat, but I do not... not on me anyway.

V-8 is an easy way to up your veggie intake, but I HIGHLY recomend getting the low sodium variety. Too much salt will lead to water retention and it is much easier to exceed your salt limit than you could imagine. A nice broth based soup before a meal to help fill you up. I also am a fan of a good colon Flush. If your colon is clean you absorb your nutrients better and thus require less food to meet your body's nutritional needs. An average woman can lose about 25 lbs from an effective flush. And is is all literally crap gumming up the intestines. I can't do it yet, as I am still breastfeeding...

If you have the Lifetime Channel... the new Cook Yourself Thin is really well done and the recipes are pretty terriffic... and I've tried most of them... lost 7 lbs so far...
