Cinnabon!! You naughty, taunting thing you!
I have GREAT willpower and can resist most things. I pray every day for this strength! It is SO hard, walking into a mall that has a Cinnabon and walking past. I do it but that smell is intoxicating!!! I feel like I will gain weight just from smelling it!! I just looked up the nutrition and ONE regular cinnamon roll is 730…

Breakfast
What is everyone having for breakfast? I have a 1400 calorie per day limit. It seems like 2 fried eggs, and 1 piece of toast or 1 bowl of oatmeal uses up 25% of my calorie intake. What else can eat?

Tava Zero Calorie Sparkling Beverages - Okay, we are SO not on board with the completely pretentious marketing campaign behind these new drinks -- but they do taste goooood. Great flavor and no calories. So we can tolerate the ridiculous spin PepsiCo has put on this diet soda line. Available in "Mediterranean Fiesta" (aka…

calories in beverages
The site says you have to be 18 to join and my daughter is only 14, so she technically can't be here. I did use the format to track her caloire intake for the past couple of weeks, without asking her to modify anything, just eat and let me know what she had. I discovered, to my complete surprise, that about half of her…

calories vs carbs
I had to read the posts about reducing calorie intake by 3500 calories a week about, oh, 117 times before I actually got what that meant so I hope some of you don't mind explaining the calorie and carb thing one more time. When I was shopping today I noticed that the aisles have literally exploded with 100 calorie packs of…

Love these!
I love the bird's eye steamfresh veggies. One of my favs right now are the peas with mushrooms in a garlic sauce. I don't usually like to use any extra calories for sauces but these are still reasonable and really tasty AND peas are very filling.

I am so glad I did not spend the money on nutra system
I was on the nutrasystem website over and over and did not want to spend that money. Like everyone else I just don't have that kind of money. This so easy to do. I fill in my entire day the night before and take a bunch of factored in snack stuff to work. I nibble all day, eat my lean cousine or chunky soup for lunch.…

sleeping after you eat

I am wondering if there is a reason why. I dont eat too much my calorie intake is normally 300-500 calories each meal.

I have a horrible carb-problem :(
Hello, I just started using this site a short while ago, but in the last week or so, I've already noticed that I eat almost ALL carbs. I go over on carbs everyday while I struggle to meet my calorie intake :( I have a horrible addiction to them, because I'm a college kid, they're cheap and easy and filling. Does anyone…

It didn't have the nutritional value listed on it. I've looked up a few websites still can't find it! Does anyone have any ideas…

How much sugar should you limit your intake to.
I was just curious if anyone knows what you should cap your sugar intake at. When you eat a lot of fruit it seems you also eat a lot of sugar. I know it's healthy sugar, but isn't it still just sugar when you get right down to it? Leslie

CARB Confusion
I found this article and thought I would share it with you all. I stated in another forum that when I eat 800-900 cals per day, I have good weightloss...when I bump it up to 1200 (which is still below my BMR and yes, I know, not good for me) I gain. So I began to think...hey ...maybe its the amount of Carbs Im…

Consistently Low Calories
ok...so the BMR says I should have 1330 cals per day. For about 4-5 days now I have been under 1000 cals per day and felt full and fine, although when its time for a meal or a snack it's TIME! I guess what I am asking is this: 1. If my BMR is 1330 cals...should I be deducting 500 cals per day to lose one pound per week? 2.…
