Cascadian Farms
Okay, I am in love :heart: with Cascadian Farms Organic Cereal. So far I've tried the Cinnamon Raisin Granola, and the Maple Brown Sugar Granola.....YUM! The contents may look a little high, but it makes me amazingly full which never happens from a cereal or granola. Really, I'm full all the way until lunch :bigsmile: .…

restaurant work and other woes
I am new at this--and I have found that counting calories is easy enough--but I tend to go over on fat, carbs, and protein. Another problem is I work in a restaurant--so on my days off, I do really well, but at work it's--ugly! I started a system where I eat only 300 calories before work, so I am free to snack all day--but…

How do I get enough protein?
In my calorie breakdown, I see that my calorie sources are within recommended limits, all except protein. I frequently find myself with one meal left for the day and needing to consume 800 calories, but have only taken in 18 g of protein. This is even with 2 T peanut butter for lunch! 36/54 is what I still need today. I am…

I realized water is indeed important in my life, but........
I don't ever want to drink too much, too fast. Or just too much. I believe that it is possible to drink too much water, as well as in too short a time period. I just read a scarey article about a woman that did that. Instead of drinking water throughout the day, she would sit in the evening, and within 2 hours drink 4…

Maple Syrup
I've seen some pure maple syrup in the health foods area of my grocery store. None of them have the nutritional information on them. This probably sounds like a dumb question but, how much sugar is in it? Is it 100% sugar OR is it no sugar (even though it's sweet) because it only has the one ingredient and comes from a…

I'm a little confused?!
So, I was so excited to make the "yum yum brownie muffins" by Hungry Girl that when I went to the grocery store I bought Pumpkin Pie filling, instead of the pure pumpkin :( Either way, it made WAY more than 12 muffins (I actually made 20!!) but I'm not sure if that's just because it's a different consistency? Hum, Either…

Any tips to stop binging when I get home from work
I work an odd shift: 1030a-700p. My lunch break is at 1245. By the time I get home from work about about 745p, I am starving. I walk through the door and shove what ever I can get my hands on into my mouth. And most of it is not good food! Does anyone have some hearty snacks that will help combat this??? Thanks gang! Jenn
