    I still eat all the same stuff I used to, but my portions are no longer out of control. One thing that I have tried, thanks to another MFP member, is the Smucker's All Natural Peanut Butter. Yummyparty0021.gif

    Celery!! (Only with Peanut Butter though or UCK!)

    BTW - what is the canned pumpkin like? How do you eat it? Sounds like it has potential...

    Canned pumpkin is amazing.. you can use it in place of compote on pancakes, you can use it with just about any cake mix and make great baked goods for a fraction of the calories/fat/sodium, mix it with whipped cream... your imagination is the limit :)

    BYW those green bags that are advertised on tv and sold here at Giant Eagle are really great and do have veggie & fruit last much longer!!!!
