Pasta w/ avocados, bacon, basil, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, ground peper, salt, Romano cheese. - Jill's Notes: I thought it was tasty and easy to make. I went light on the basil because my hubby hates basil. He did comment that he thought it tasted a little too lemony, but it's worth making again. So I'll probably reduce the lemon in the future.

I like this mineral blemish powder. It's pretty effective at helping to treat hormonal acne, yet contains all natural ingredients. Cheap too!

Butternut squash quinoa w/ cranberries Jill's Notes: This was pretty good, but you know what elevated it? Goat cheese and slivered almonds sprinkled on top. (And the hubby just thanked me for making something nutritious. He hates squash.)

quinoa salad with black beans, avocado and cumin-lime dressing. Jill's Notes: I left out the onions, tried adding a little onion powder to the dressing instead. It was pretty good.

Jill Whitaker It was pretty good... I didn't use onions (they give me heartburn) so I think I was missing a little flavor. But it's a keeper.

Trigger warning -- I've never been fond of The Biggest Loser, it's always rubbed me the wrong way. This interview with former #biggestloser contestant Kai Hibbard illustrates what really goes on behind the scenes and how dangerous and unhealthy the show really is for its contestants.

Lindsay Decken I've always wondered about 250+lb people working out for the first time in years and somehow being able to do so for hours on end and day after day. Obviously we know how hard that is at our level - and we've never been as far off track as they are when they start out. Too bad BL can't *truly* do it right... Also, at the end of the season the contestants weigh the same as me or less and I am like WTF! Not fair.

Profile picture of Jill Whitaker

Jill Whitaker Yeah, it's always kind of made my red flag sensors go off, "This isn't right!" And the fact that they dehydrate themselves so much for their weigh-ins is disgusting.

Profile picture of Tearese Gould

Tearese Gould I only watched that for one season, and I didn't like how the contestants now seemed to obsessed over loosing weight even after the show when they looked healthy.

Profile picture of Jill Whitaker

Jill Whitaker Yep, it's not a healthy approach for the contestants and that message is then spread to the viewing audience.

So sweet... Kind of reminds me of my old dog.
