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.

Product testing

We bought Dr. Praeger's veggie burgers at Costco because they haven't had Boca Burgers for a while.  Hoping to save a few bucks from buying them at Target, we thought it might be worth a try.  Scott had them once at a work barbecue and thought they were not bad, but without the "atmosphere" he found them a little less tasty.  They taste a bit like egg rolls and are really not bad to taste, but I put cheese on mine and that was definitely a mistake.  I think they would be a great ingredient to something else, but I would not recommend them as a burger substitute as I would with a Boca Burger.  Scott and I are going to try the rest in a few recipes and if we come up with something tasty and low calorie, we'll be sure to fill you in!
