I never was interested in that cereal before. I still don't really like and I certainly won't eat it with milk. No, only straight out of box. It's got a good crunching appeal. So, here am. Keeping track starting today. And I'm going to be much more active on his forum.
So, here are my rules.
1. Post on this forum daily.
2. No snacking after supper unless it is strawberries (I won't binge on strawberries) or ONE English muffin with a piece of laughing cow cheese or a slice of cheese.
3. Brush and floss my teeth after dinner. Put whitening trays on if my teeth can handle it.
4. Log it before I eat it?
5. Drink a half bottle of water first.
6. Say a prayer first.
Hi Missy I feel for you, keep yourself busy, especially your hands !! You can do this one day at a time
On the days that I eat "bone broth" I seem to do better. I am trying to follow the 26Blue dot com hints for unquenchable hunger. Lack of water makes the body seek water from food...hunger. Lack of sleep makes the body seek energy from food...hunger. So it says to drink at least 6 cups of water, sleep in at least one day a week, eat "bone broth", and take a natural B vitamin (like the brands natural source, raw, or thorne research). I have not bought the B vitamins yet. Two days ago I made a beef bone broth and was not hungry the rest of the day and night. So I have bought two chicken quarters and am putting one with an onion into my electric pressure cooker. I will have that for breakfast and see how I do in the evening.
Sounds like you have a plan, I drink plenty of water and sleep for England!!!! Good luck this evening0 -

No joining required, you just post here everyday.
There is a star on the top right that you can press to bookmark. It will turn yellow. Then, you will get continous challenge updates located under the bell, top left.
Welcome!
Cool. I was going to start it last night but I went to a basketball game and ended up having a couple of chocolate chip cookies after 10pm so I'm starting it tonight.

Welcome! It sounds like you have a good plan for keeping the snacking away. My hubby loves Frosted Mini Wheats, too, and he mixes it with Kellogg's Double Chocolate Crave cereal. I also definitely understand the part about eating well during the day and blowing it at night. That was a terrible problem I had and still struggle with at times (my desire to keep my streak going is preventing me from giving in...lol!). Stay strong!

I ate my bone broth for breakfast and was not hungry all day. Not that hungry at dinner time either but ate a real dinner. I did not have my usual ravenous appetite in the evening. So I am having bone broth again for breakfast.0 -

I weighed in two pounds less this morning although I had an "I need brown sugar NOW!" fix at 10 pm last night. I added 3 Tbsp of it to Honey Clusters Fiber cereal with wheat germ, chia and hemp seeds, topped off with soy milk in a small bowl. I also am working on having my biggest meal no later than lunch time.0
