Yoplait
In case any of you have a sweet tooth (like ME :happy: ), I just had a 6 oz container of Yoplait Red Velvet Cake yogurt and a banana. OMG.... the Red Velvet Cake yogurt tastes JUST LIKE cake batter!

Don't make this mistake that I did!!!
Went to the Spaghetti Warehouse for dinner tonight - unexpectedly - and thought I would be smart and order the Vegetable Garden Lasagna. DO NOT DO THIS!!! This piece of lasagna has more calories, fat and carbs than you could ever imagine! Imagine my surprise (and horror and dismay and disgust) to find out that the numbers…

Eating at nighttime
I work monday through friday 9-6, I bring my lunch so I can eat something healthy. Immediately after work I go to the gym, so I don't get home until almost 8 most nights. And I still need to eat dinner. I hear that skipping dinner isnt a good idea, but neither is eating late. I usually just eat a bowl or cereal or some…

Just a reminder for people about salt and entering foods
When entering Foods in my diary i noticed that my sodium levels were low. I picked four random foods and checked them against the labels. what I found is that people are entering the weight in grams not in milligrams resulting in huge figure deductions. So just as a heads up when you read 0.2g sodium per serving enter it…

Is Going Over In Daily Fats Bad? Even If Good Fats
Does anyone ever go over their daily fat intake. I do, but does it matter if its healthy fats like almonds, almond milk, certain veggies like green beans, salmon, fruits, etc. Stuff like that and not foods that contain bad fats.

Steel Cut Oatmeal
I have been reading about how healthy this is, even better than regular oatmeal but was unable to find it in my local grocery store. Is this an item that you have to go to a whole foods store? Thanks

Homity Pie
This is a traditional British pie made with garlic, cheese and potatoes, with a pastry crust! Thing is, I had a slice today in a cafe and don't know how many calories to log. Anyone know please?

Do you log every single item...
For instance, I stopped logging in my black coffee I drink every morning. I was surprised there were calories in black coffee. Are there items you don't count? Oh yea, I don't log any lettuce. Just your thoughts? :flowerforyou: Thanks!

GAAAAAAH!!!!!
I went to Sweet Tomatoes with my friend for lunch. I love Thousand Island dressing. But I decided to be good and get their Balsamic Vinaigrette. Newman's Own is 45 calories for 2 T. I assumed Sweet Tomatoes would be in that ballpark. So I heaped it on & got 2 servings. Then I got back to work and hopped on here to update…

Sugar in MILK?
I just learned that there is sugar added in milk! I never knew that! PLUS: There is MORE sugar added in 2% milk than regular whole milk! (12 grams in 2% and 11 grams in whole). I always thought that milk was more or less 'natural' like eggs or whatever. This just totally surprised me. No wonder my sugar calories are always…

Eating before bed
Hi Pals! I'm wondering how late people eat before they go to bed? I've heard you shouldn't eat as many as 4 hours before sleeping. I work out in the late evening and come home around 8:30 and drink a protein shake and maybe a snack. I go to bed at 10:30ish. Should I allow more time in between eating and sleeping? Thanks…

Going Veg
For ethical reasons, I am thinking of going vegetarian. However, my son (who is 2.5) and my husband love their meat. Is there anyone on here that is vegetarian but has meat-eaters in the house? How do you make the two meals work? What do you eat for protein? I hate the fake meats and can't make myself like tofu or soymilk.…
