Anyway, still on track just hope I can keep it up. Visit next week to see if I’m still on track. Mind you though I do have a pizza Sunday to attend, yum….pizza!!

You’re doing it, Mark, good for you! Sounds goofy at first but have you tried cheeseless thin crust pizza loaded with extra sauce and tons of veggies? Add some red pepper flakes and garlic powder and it’s deeelish! Not to mention it saves 1/3rd of the calories. Let me know if you try it!
Mark Elliott
Pizza without cheese! If it helps me lose weight and lets me eat pizza at the same time I might just give it a go.

Srsly, right? Winds up tasting like a loaded flatbread. Modifying foods I shouldn’t otherwise eat has helped me stick to the plan. What are your tricks?
sobevegchick
Had some tonite! Another little tip is that you can add a “better for you cheese” such as feta. What are some of your fave modified for Operation Slim Jim foods?
Mark Elliott
My tips: Pizza made from small pita breads with small amount of cheese, a little ham and capsicum. A smidge of sauce to add flavour to the base.
Eat one with a salad and glass of cool water. Sometimes I add pineapple and pine nuts.

Heyyy! How’s the progress comin? Had some “good for you” ahem, “better for you” cheese last nite. Feta arugula flatbread pizza. Yummm! Thought of u 🙂 How do u keep the pita from getting soggy?
Mark Elliott
Q. How do you stop Pita from getting soggy.
A. Eat it fast! ; )
SobeVegChick
Haha!!! That is rarely a problem in my kitchen so I think I’ll try your recipe soon.
So what’s your workout plan for the week?

That sounds deelish! I’m actually starting a 60 day fitness challenge on the 1st and I’d luv u to join. Though of u for this bc u really seem interested in making a positive change for yourself. I also coach people on their fitness journey (this is free btw). I can email or Facebook u more info if u want. Sound like a plan?
