Here's what a 345 calorie dinner looks like. Thanks to The Enchanted Cook blog, I enjoyed a lowfat version of Parmesan Chicken. It was so moist and delicious! You can find the recipe here:

I go through periods where I crave sweets like crazy! It gets so bad that I blackout and wake up having ate a whole carton of ice cream! Ok, it's not that bad but sweet cravings do not help you lose fat. So I took to my friend Goggle and created this list of reasons you could have a case of sweet tooth.

- lack of sleep
- PMS
- dehydration
- stress
- lack of protein in your diet
- sweeteners

Typically if I get sleep, drink more water and add protein to my diet my cravings subside. Happy Eating!
