    Headache is also a known side effect of Hydroxycut. It is questionable to use and even since its re formulation has been linked to serious side effects.

    I didn't know that. Well I drank my last one today. So maybe I will find a safer alternative.
    Save your money. Focus on a calorie deficit and you shouldn't have to spend money on weight loss products that either aren't safe or don't really work. :smile:

    Is it ok to eat alot of protein? I'm over like 11 grams.

    Well I went to the store, I bought Celery, dozen eggs, Naked "Green machine" smoothie drink, 2 little snack packs one is carrots/celery/hummus, and the other is cheese/apples/caramel. and carrots, two smart ones meals.
    The rest was for my daughter milk, juice boxes, colby jack cheese, and one little can of vienna sausages.

    That was $30 bucks. I eyed some of the other things, berries (my daughter said no), spinach (I thought it was to expensive), rotisserie chicken (my daughter said yuk). lol.

    Luckily we have a lot of can food left, so I will try to incorporate those into some of the new foods I got. Hopefully I can go shopping again in four or five days.

    So for dinner tonight I plan to eat 2 eggs with colby jack cheese, and celery with a little peanut butter on it. I know that's a random dinner. But it sounds kinda yummy to me. lol.

    Sounds fine to me. I eat eggs a lot. Poached eggs are great and have no extra calories from cooking fat, can be served over toast, lentils, beans, etc. put a little cheese on top, delicious. Frittatas are also good and you can put any veggies you like. I use frozen spinach a lot because it's cheap and cooks quickly. I used to make a soup with canned broth, tomatoes and frozen spinach. Throw some cheese tortellini in to make it a meal, serve with parmesan cheese.

    The eggs worked out great. I even made one for my daughter. 2 eggs, and some cheese. She liked it too. She snubbed her nose at the celery and peanut butter. lol.

    MFP's protein goal is pretty low, so it's certainly fine to go over it. I actually changed my goals to allow for more protein and less carbs.

    I think your dinner sounds just fine. :) My mom used to make us "Ants on a Log" when I was a kid. Celery filled with peanut butter and a line of raisins on top of the peanut butter. We all loved it.

    I'm on a mission to use everything in my pantry and freezer right now. I cleaned them out and organized them while I was on break from work and school between Christmas and New Year's Day. Using what you already have is a very good idea.
