    Why you hatin on Wheat Thins? :sad:
    I love them too, but now I buy the "fake" ones from Dollar Tree... "Busy Baker" brand I think. They are 10 cal each piece so it's easy to calculate calories, don't know if they are less or more calories than Wheat Thins. I'd say just limit yourself to ONE serving per day, and enjoy them! I consider them healthy, don't know why you need to eliminate them completely.

    I kind of stopped reading at "bad things... I stopped eating red meat"

    and I was just sad for you.

    I'd replace my wheat thins with a side of steak honestly.

    Otherwise- popcorn- and veggie sticks.


    This - I've been down that road too many times, whether its low GI or other fad diets - switching to (shudder!) Molson 67 instead of real beer. :sad: In the long run depriving yourself is unsustainable. Variety is the spice of life and depriving yourself of that variety is depressing and soul destroying.

    Eat within your bodies needs (TDEE) and don't sweat the occasional overage.

    Sundried Tomato Basil Wheat Thins are the best, especially with neufchatel or cottage cheese.

    I have started to eat these things with hummus as a snack, and they're great. Only 20 cal for a large rectangle snackbread, 3 pieces for 60 calories. They're a lot larger than you might think.

    I personally like Food Should Taste Good chips. Specifically their sweet potato and multigrain tortilla chips. They really hit the spot and are 140 calories for a serving.

    This thread is making me want steak and crackers. I'm going to have to go back to the store and buy all the crackers mentioned.
