Not a problem. :)

20 calories per brownie and the box mix + Diet coke made 12? What kind of mix did you use? Dunkin Hines Brownie mix is about 2000 calories (for the whole box) without adding anything.

I make smoothies for my breakfast daily. I use a Ninja and I love it!

Ladybug- My husband asks me the same thing. I always say YES, I can eat that. But I'm choosing not too. I would rather have ____________, but thank you for asking. :smiley: And losing 30 pounds in a month is not uncommon if the starting weight is high. At my highest, I was close to 300. In the first month, (this was when I…

I feel the same about cake. I don't want a 2x2 piece of cake for 150 calories. I want a friggin' monster size piece that I can enjoy, but not for 500+ calories! UGH!!!

I do the same thing. It's very irritating getting that message.

Do you add anything to the Tuna packets? I've wanted to try the flavored tuna, but haven't dared yet.

I also have a desk job. In my desk, I have pistachios (with shells so I don't just grab a handful and eat a huge amount) a banana, a Special K Moments Indulgent Caramel Pretzel snack bite (70 calories) and seasoned chick peas with cashews. If I feel like snacking, I'll grab something. At around 2:30-3 during the work week,…

I never thought to freeze orange juice to put in my smoothies. I love this idea! How do you count the calories for it?

Wanting large quantities of carbs: Cake, bread, chips, pastries, etc. I have not overcome that yet. I don't neccessarily eat them, I just want them.

My smoothie base is the same everyday: 1cup Almond Breeze Unsweetened Vanilla milk 1/2 cup Plain, fat free Greek yogurt Then I add frozen fruits Strawberry Raspberry Strawberry Banana Peaches Strawberry & Peaches Strawberry, Orange (juice) Banana ( I don't like blueberries, blah.) I also add, for a little kick, 1 packet of…

Good for you for sticking to what you want and what works!

My husband knows I track food using my iPad and iPhone, but doesn't know about all the people on here either. He supports and loves me, but since he's never had a weight issue, he doesn't 100% understand.

Brag it up girl! You deserve it!

I love this!

Wendy's small chili and side salad with Pomegrante dressing, no croutons. It's my go to when I want to grab fast food.

I have to say, I got lucky with the dates I had from Match.com. My very first match was someone I knew of in Highschool, and now we are married. We both went on many dates from Match with other people for a while and met very nice people, some are still friends. The worst one I had asked me "What do you think about…

There are cupcakes in the kitchen at work. I want one, but decided I'm not going to have it. I want my nightly dessert more.

I have the same problem. I usually end of not counting because I haven't 'planned' what I'm going to eat. I end up eating out or going to family or friends house for get togethers. I try to remember to eat sensibly, but sometimes, it's just a pain.

I use the leftover 'stuff' to make a soup base. I add a bunch of veggies and sometimes leftover chicken. I've never added anything to make it thicker, though.

I don't do Weight Watchers because I can't afford it. I really hope this place stays free.

She's my Step Daughter, but I've been a 'step' child many times over and never liked the word. So I call her my bonus child. :smiley:

I love frosting from the can. Once, I made a cake and had a lot of it left over. I poured Dawn dishwashing liquid in the container, stuffed dirty paper towels in it, then put the top on it and trashed it. If I hadn't done that, I would have taken the container out in the middle of the night and eaten the frosting.

I wait for my hubsand and bonus child to go to bed and then have my snacks. I always leave enough calories to have a double serving of frozen yogurt with chocolate chips and Hershey's SF chocolate syrup. And sometimes I get a little irritated when they don't go to bed on time. I never let them know I'm irritated though.

In my morning smoothie with frozen strawberries.

I think she is beautiful and real. She's healthy, not overweight. All we see in magazines, movies and on TV is woman who are small framed and look great in a bikini. Not everyone can look like that, no matter what food we put in our mouths or how much working out we do. And it is absolutely possible to be PLUS SIZE and…

LOL!

Mine is too! :)

As long as you are healthy and not harming yourself, it's all good! Thanks for a great topic! I don't feel like "the only one" to be doing the stuff people have listed. :smiley:
