Artificial sweeteners

Not sure if i am allergic to something that they are made with or what, but within minutes of having anything with it, I have a headache developing. This happens to me every time I eat anything that has it. Just so you know how frustrating…

coffee creamer?
I LOVE COFFEE!! However, I use 2-3 TBSP of creamer in each cup (large cups = not those dinky 8oz ones) - I use up way too many calories drinking my coffee each morning - I use a french vanilla fat free creamer - but it is still approx 30 calories per TBSP - that is like 90-100 calories per cup!!!! I need the flavor as I…

KFC
Tonight for dinner I had a small fry, medium Dr. Pepper with lots of ice, and a twister; I feel amazing. This is the second "bad" meal that I had in a month and I felt it was time for one. It feels good to not have any guilt about eating fast food because I know that I'm active enough in my gym to enjoy an indulgence every…

Margarine is one of my weaknesses..........I have always over done it. A habit I have tried to change by buying Smart Balance margarine.

Sushi!
I have never been a huge sushi eater, only the occasional California roll, but now I think I might eat it more often! Today I bought some from Kroger - a package containing 12 pieces - and the whole thing ( 2 servings) was only 316 calories! It was a little high in carbs (60 grams for all 12 pcs), but low in fat (4 grams)…

Under on calories. WAY over on carbs
Hi Like others, at the end of the day I'm under on calories, so I eat a snack to get all my calories in. But, each day I've been way over on carbs. I eat lots of fresh fruit and veggies, lean meat, cereal. It's so hard to keep the carbs down. Any ideas?

Dear Peeps,
Dear Peeps, I love everything about you: squishy and sweet, or hard and dry. You are the sunshine of Easter. Little bundles of sugary spring time happiness. But, I urge you, as I see that you've magically reappeared again this easter season; to please do your best to stay away from my hands, because I will eat…
