Have you ever made a meal out of 100 calorie snack packs?

I really need to go grocery shopping but it's cold and I'm lazy so I didn't. All I have in the house are 100 calorie snack packs so I had that for dinner. I wound up eating a ton of calories and am still hungry! Lesson learned, preparation is key!!

    No, but I did eat cake and m&m's as "dinner" for my son's birthday. We had lunch and then everyone came over for cake and by the time I was done I had eaten all of my calories so I skipped dinner. I was hungry, but doing that once isn't a big deal.

    it happens to all of us
  • Hells yeah I have - I love those things. I almost always have two. I will have one, then enjoy a lot of water and slowly enjoy a second pack. They don't cure my hunger, but they do satisfy my cravings.

    I've moved onto the Belvita(sp) bites - the chocolate ones are really good and very filling. I will have a bag at work for lunch and some water and it's just a good energy boost. Worth the cost for sure.

    No, but I had pepperoni, cheese and crackers for breakfast the day after Christmas! :D It happens, all we can do is learn from it and move on.

    One of my quick inexpensive but filling meals is egg drop soup. If cooking for 1. 2 c water, 1 tsp chicken soup base, 1/2 c celery finely chopped. 1 tsp dried minced onion. Cook until celery is soft. bring to boil. Stir in 1 egg ( stirred so yolk and white are mixed. Thicken with 1 tbsp. cornstarch. Not many calories but yummy. You can also have a salad on the side.
