Getting back to cabbage meals!

Okay, no restriction = no weight loss. Haven't really lost any weight and I've also not been eating cabbage with meat sauces for most meals lately! So guess what, tomorrow I'm cooking up another batch of cabbage, (with alfredo & spicy lean meat & turkey sausage sauce--YUM) and seeing if I can't lose some more weight on my own then!

  • Yuck. Try counting calories. Try exercising. You can't eat cabbage for the rest of your life. .... well you could, but could you really? Try changing your lifestyle. That usually works.

    Did I seriously just get lifestyle advice about a freaking cabbage meal post!!!!! Hey newsflash people!!! Your unsolicited advice is not welcome to most of us!!! The poster will ASK for it if that's

  • Actually, it's not crap. It's really good advice. I am working very hard to lose weight. I work my butt off at the gym, and I actually eat right. My workouts are so intense, that I doubt you would las

Good luck..though restriction doesn't guarantee weight loss. Enjoy your cabbage.

Eww Cabbage haha.

Doesn't alfredo have like 100 grams of fat..?

I love turkey meatballs with marinara, it's tasty! don't miss the Pasta.

I think I want to try this! Is there more to the receipe or just cabbage, alfredo, spicy lean meat, and meat sauce?

I experiment with sauces. I like the alfredo best. Basically I just cook up a little turkey sausage and lean beef, pour over the alfredo, simmer, and that's the sauce. It's really good. But as the resident dieticians noted above, the sauce has actual calories and your $20k restriction won't guarantee weight loss, so you might not want to eat this. Better stick to no-cal foods biggrin.gif

LOL! I will try it anyways because I think I am smart enough to track my calories and fat for the day to still enjoy a 1/2 cup of it at meal times. LOL! Knowing me I will make it even un-healthier by adding cheese to it! I LOVE Cheese!

Yum! Me too! But I have to be careful with the cheese :(

I eat plenty of calories including those from alfredo sauce :) I prefer to make my own however; less processed BS. But if you're relying on "restriction" to jump the scale, well..good luck. My restriction was only $400 lol.

Spaghetti squash is a good substitution as well for Pasta @ the other poster.

Yes it is very good! (spaghetti squash) I'm not the best cook so I botched the last one I baked by forgetting it was there for an extra hour or so :( Will definitely try again though.

Never baked mine. Too lazy/impatient for that. I put it in the microwave after I cut it in half in a long-ish dish with Water. Put it on for 5 mins (depending on the size) and it usually comes out fine.

THANKS! Now THAT's my kind of cooking!

Remind me not to stand downwind!

LOL!:D

Hey newsflash people!!! Your unsolicited advice is not welcome to most of us!!! The poster will ASK for it if that's what is wanted! We're tired of reading this kind of crap. Also, another newsflash!!! If you are working so hard to lose weight, stop giving credit to the band!! Your freaking diet is why you're losing weight, not your "tool" you love to brag about!

That sounds kinda yummy. I never really liked cooked cabbage, but my tastes have changed. I'm a bit worried about gas with the cabbage, so I better try it on the weekend.:blink:
