(From the WoW (Watching our Waists) Collection at emealsforyou.com)
Sea Bass
Okay, so we have all decided this is the month, this is the day, this is the hour that we get healthier. Our time to change our lifestyle and make a deference is here. You don’t have to go “drastic”, you do have to change the way you eat. The whole method is to limit the amount of food you eat. Portion control is the answer. This doesn’t mean bland food and constant hunger. This means balanced meals; why shouldn’t these be great tasting meals as well.
At emealsforyou.com we offer many remedies, we take the work out of your “diet.” We have categories to make you successful in your efforts without alienating the entire family along the way. Our healthy, easy recipes and meal planning provide you with all that you will need to accomplish your goal. With categories like Diet Friendly, WOW (Watching Our Waists) and even special needs programs for Diabetic Healthy, Gluten Free and more; coupled with our automatic recipe calculator (how many people are you feeding) we make it easy to get the whole family involved. Pick the recipe / meal, determine the number you are feeding, and print a shopping list; for one meal or several weeks’ worth. As they say, ” It is what we do.” Cooking something else for the kids, we have recipes / meals that they will love.
The bottom line is why pay for a program that costs you an arm and a leg, when you only want to lose a little weight. Cooking at home can not only save you money, the food is tastier and healthier than the frozen entrees they send you. All this for a yearly subscription of $17.95, less than a dollar and a half per month; we are the best bargain around. Click here to sign Up NOW! Take control of your family’s well-being.

Quick, Great and Diet Friendly – Chicken Piccata
From the Diet Friendly Category at emealsforyou.com.
Chicken Piccata
Diets don’t work. Eating right works. Week 1 of our attempt to get back into those “regular” clothes again after the holiday onslaught. I took all the butter in the frig and put it in the freezer; we ate our weight in butter with all the meals and desserts last month, so it is off to the Siberia of appliances for the butter that makes all that stuff taste better. We are serious this time.
Our site, emealsforyou.com, has several categories to help us get through our self-imposed tightening of the belt, as it were.The Chicken Piccata below is just one of the many mealplans that we provide to help. In our Careful and Carefree MealPlans we give you 4 weeks of mealplans; including 3 meals a day and 2 snacks. The secret to positive weight loss is in portion control; not is denying yourself really good food. Our WOW (Watching Our Weight) plan helps you prepare great meals, sacrificing nothing in taste, while controlling the portions you prepare.
Our other weight-loss plan is a friendly bet. Four of us each put $50 in a pot and the person losing the largest percentage of body weight by March 1st wins it all. So if you need help planning emealsforyou.com is the answer. If you need more help, get together with some friends and give the bet a try. Who knows, you just may win the money for that smaller wardrobe.
