Who we are and why we are here:

'He' started out at 450 lbs. 'She' started out at 300 lbs (although had been as high as 330 lbs at one point). Between them they've lost weight, gained weight, and learned a lot along the way.

What you'll find here are our educated thoughts, opinions, and tips for a healthier lifestyle. 'He' minored in psychology, 'she' majored in history - two research heavy fields that have made them both skeptical and able to weed through the sludge in order to find gems. Neither of us is perfect by any means, but as much as possible, we will try not to lead you astray with unfounded, sensational, or fad information.

We are intentionally avoiding fad diets, expensive meal plans, and other extreme (expensive!) weight loss plans.

Treat yourself!

Now it's time for the first recipe. Dessert! Reward yourself for a job well done.

Strawberry Cheesecake (No Bake)
4 sheets graham cracker
1 cup cottage cheese
2 Tbs lemon juice
1 cup light vanilla soy milk
1 small pkg sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix
6 oz light strawberry yogurt

In medium bowl, begin by blending cottage cheese until it breaks up. Add lemon juice, milk, and pudding mix. Blend more. Mix at a higher speed to reduce cottage cheese as much as possible. Add yogurt, but stir just a little to distribute.

Line for 16 cupcake(s).
Leave in chunks or crumble 1/4 sheet graham cracker into the bottom of each pan, spread to corners. Divide mixture as evenly as possible. Refrigerate. Because of soy, these will be a bit soft so eat carefully. Freeze for a summer treat!

Each is about 100 calories.
