    Things are groceries that stress me out if they are not in the house! :-)

    Mushrooms....I can stretch 2-3 oz of protein into a large meal with a ton of sautéed mushrooms!

    Squash...my new thing. Cook up Spaghetti squash and have it on hand for the week for a quick low cal meal. I like it with garlic and parmesan cheese

    Greek yogurt...high protein breakfast helps keep me feeling full

    Apples...slice an apple and have it with me all day for snacking

    Sugar free werthers caramels...for the emergency sugar craving!

    Frozen chicken breasts
