Hi, I want to trim my abs and looking for any diet plans that can still give you great results and are appropriate and healthy for this program. I don't want to try their food plans just yet. I can only eat 1000 calories per day so I need a plan that could stick with that. If you have recipes, websites, diet plans, or anything, please let me know. Thank you very much in advance.

I have an old cookbook that uses fruit butters, jellies, and jams instead of fat for baking. What is your opinion of this substitute to lessen the fat content? How does it affect most baking recipes? What about making that change in your pancake recipe?

Thanks

fourth sibling - fruit butters and applesauce are much better to use than sugars - you can even substitute artificial sweeteners - you can experiment with recipes and see if you are pleased with the results.

As far as affecting the recipes - it would depend on the recipe. We do have recipes on site using applesauce, etc. in place of sugars. Please type APPLESAUCE in the search in each of the health topics and you will see the recipes that use applesauce in place of sugar. Check out our low-fat recipes as well.

If you are looking for an praticular recipes - just give a holler!

Hi friends, in my high school they switched all the soda from regular to diet, and I think it isn't right because I remember my mom saying it isn't good for teens or kids’ am thinking about petitioning the school for a alternative way that the people who wants diet can have it. So I want to know is diet soda bad for teens in high school or even kids period? Please let me have your opinion. Thank you.

My sister-in-law used to make pancakes with cottage cheese or plain yogurt. Search for pancake recipes using one of those ingredients until you find one that appeals to you.

You won't like a pancake made with only flour and milk. At least put an egg white in or some baking powder or soda. Just flour and milk will be way too flat and tasteless. Even a crepe would have egg in it besides the flour and milk! Actually, crepes might appeal to you.

And don't worry if a recipe makes more than 2 pancakes. The batter would keep for a couple days or cook them all at night and then cool on a cooling rack then package 2 per bag and then zap them in the microwave in the morning to reheat them.

All soda, diet included, is bad for you. Fruit juice without added sugar, unsweetened fruit teas and water are much better for you, young kids and teens.
