We got Blue Bell Butter Crunch last Saturday and even though I was over calories already I measured out a serving. I agree it is so tasty. I hope they make their caramel turtle fudge cheese cake soon I still remember that from 2 years ago.Crosbylee

Very cool! You may have to let @Oberon21 win
That made me cringe. I'm so freakin' competitive! LOL
No you don't. I didn't drink tonight after a really rough work day and dinner with friends at a fabulous restaurant. You are not allowed to drink at a caveman like entertainment event where people beat each other up.0 -

It's a series of Marathons where they have bands at every mile marker. They have them all over the country. I have done Seattle and Portland. I am doing Nashville in April. They are fun. Usually a concert at the end too or something along those lines.
Which bands are playing?
Usually local nobodies. The Nashville one apparently had a good concert with a well known country star too.
It's amazing the amount of talent you can hear in a random bar on a Tuesday night (or any night of the week) in Nashville. The concert at the end is usually a headliner.
I can imagine with all these people trying to make it in Nashville.0 -

Oatmeal doesn't fill me up and it's definitely lacking in the protein department.
Liquid calories are tough, they never seem that satiating. I eat overnight oats for breakfast and as an after dinner snack every day - combine 15gs of plain oats, 1 container of Greek yogurt, and a half scoop of protein powder and let sit in the refrigerator for at least a few hours. The combination is low fat with almost 30gs of protein, and is heavier and more filling than just a plain yogurt or protein shake.
Hmmmm, I am interested in this. How many calories? Do you rotate different protein powders for different flavors?
@Bry_Lander
@quiksylver296
I generally buy the protein powder in bulk, so i have the same flavor for quite awhile, but it generally doesn't overwhelm the overall taste because you mostly taste the yogurt.
Here are the stats from this morning's mix (I don't like peach, which is included in a variety pack, so I mix it with a different flavor, so that is why there is half of each flavor. I mix two servings at a time, FYI):
Quaker Oats - Old Fashioned 100% Natural Whole Grain, 0.1875 cup dry 56 cals
Mp Combat Powder - Protein Powder- Cookies N Cream, 0.51 scoop 72 cals
Chobani Blueberry - Greek Yogurt, 0.5 container 65 cals
Chobani - Greek Yogurt - Peach - Nonfat, 2.65 oz. 60 cals
Over all, that is 253 calories, 32g carbs, 2g fat, and 27g protein.
@MoHousdon no cooking required
I have plain Greek yogurt, but I also have multiple flavors of protein powder. I'm going to play around with this and see!
Report back.
Also, what is 0.1875 of a cup?!
It is just the annoying way that someone built the food entry. There wasn't a weight measurement (annoying, but I'm too lazy to build a new entry), but a half cup serving =40 grams, so 15 grams - .1875 of a cup. Ugly, lol.
Yeah. I don't know where some of the entries come from. I logged a personal pizza yesterday that came up with 384 grams of fat!
My favorite is the entry for a Birdseye Asian Blend that had around 3,000 grams in cholesterol for the whole pack.
The personal pizza I logged the other day I picked from a list. It was 1000 calories or nearly. I think it was thick crust, but I figured it was more than I ate and frankly, I was over regardless, so didn't care. But some of the entries are just plain weird.
I do that. I've been counting calories for enough years that I have a pretty good idea how many calories I'm eating. I'm not a weigh-er measure-r.

Well I passed my first day on #lentchallenge
I was out and about for lunch and had to stop for gas, and didn't get myself chips or chocolate, even tho I had tons of room in my diary. I also was pleasant and didn't complain when I smashed and possibly broke my pinky toe at the pool yesterday, and wound up with a migraine headache when I over heated my supper and set off my super touchy smoke detector.
I decided today has to go better and the kids are getting salad for supper.
Oberon, those are great pics, that trail looks beautiful to run on. And line dancing is so fun, you look great.
Bummer day but yay you! for sticking to your guns! I loved line dancing.0 -

yikes about the toe and migraine!
hope the toe isn't broken, is it still really painful?
It doesn't hurt and it didn't when I did it, but I have a compressed nerve that makes me numb. Went for X-Rays, not broken, just bruised and the dr said sprained. So rest and all that jazz. Its actually very colourful but ok when I have it taped up.
Totally #dancemomproblems that when I needed tape for my toes my daughter yelled "hang on" and went and got her toe tape from her pointe shoe bag. lol.
Today was better. Had fillings today, and my dentist went a bit crazy with the freezing so I was talking like Rocky for a few hours after.
And I really want to try the steel cut oats now that everyone is talking about them. Grocery day coming up so I just might pick some up.
I'm glad your toe chose to give you mire color than pain. I love that your daughter was eager to give you her toe tape.

Why would you beat yourself for eating maintenance for one day? Many of us on this thread, and much more on MFP, has done much worse and have bounced back.
Remember it is what you do consistently that determines what your weight does.

I just laugh at the name of the toe tape, but it is good. I like that the adhesive doesn't sweat off.
When I get the steel cut oats, I will be back for recipes.

You can find lots on Pinterest if you have it. Most of them are very good. I have done a few, some in the crock pot overnight.0 -

I've eaten too much today and feel like seeing if I can go from this point onward to Sunday sometime without eating another thing to try and balance it out. I've got what can be considered a 'birthday blowout' coming up in two weeks and if I'm not happy with my weight, people are being told to leave me alone and eat cake themselves in my honour.0

Not judging but that doesn't sound at all healthy to me. Please take care of yourself.

Agreed! Don't punish yourself. This is not a healthy relationship with food. Just resolve to eat better from this point forward.0 -

No you don't. I didn't drink tonight after a really rough work day and dinner with friends at a fabulous restaurant. You are not allowed to drink at a caveman like entertainment event where people beat each other up.

Agreed. Binging and starving isn't healthy. Try and just eat well for the next few days. It will even out. Otherwise it will be a cycle of binging -- starving -- binging.0 -

I had them for dinner a few weeks ago. A whole sleeve as well. I hadn't eaten them in years. YUM! They are my favorite. But you can't just eat one.. or two... or six.0 -

Just the idea. You cannot promote unhealthy eating, according to the rules.0
