    So speaking of fruit....I bougt some Del Monte fruit smoothies yesterday. They are frozen and on a stick like a popsicle. I had a mango one...yummy. There is sugar in them but they are 97 calories each which I thought wasn't bad. It's just that I don't know about you guys but I can't get through the summer without some type of frozen treat. :noway:

    I know you can get some types that are all fruit with no added sugar but I didn't see any of those yesterday. :ohwell: And since I was buying my hubby rum & raisin ice cream bars, I knew I had to get myself something so I wouldn't cave and have one of those as they are twice the calories. :laugh:

    Oh and I hear frozen grapes are really nice too although I haven't tried them. :bigsmile:

    Aha - found you crazy canucks!

    I joined MFP yesterday and finding the resources helpful. I've been on my WL journey since November 2008 and managed to drop 20 pounds easily enough. I have been stuck on the same plateau for about 4 months now. I hired a PT back in February and been working with him 3 days/wk, swimming 20x25meter laps twice/wk, and trying to fit in at least 30 minutes on my treadmill 2 days/wk. Come July I'll be starting Bikram Yoga and trying to fit in at least 2 sessions/wk.

    My goal weight is 150
    my starting weight was 214
    my current weight is 190

    Wish me luck!

    Really bad fruit day.

    I had two cherries.

    I did however managed to make a lunch of the samples at Costco and input absolutely everything I ate. The good and the bad. It was not as bad as I thought. I am still within my 1200 calories for the day. I had a healthy dinner to make up for the sampling. Steamed rice topped with a little pico, poached boneless skinless chicken breast, steamed beans and carrots, spinach salad with tomato, feta cheese and a maple balsamic dressing.

    Looking forward to eating the great fruit I bought at the farmer's market and at Costco today. I will be good with my fruit tomorrow, I promise.

    I think it should count! How about the fruit juice in those jello shooters? LOL! Oh man, this is going to be a bad week; better get busting my butt these next couple of days. I did a killer workout today, my lungs and legs were killing me ~ hopefully I can work off some of those extra yummy calories I ate yesterday.
