Legion Pulse is a little on the expensive side, but it's packed with caffeine and has a very transparent ingredient list! I use the watermelon one, and I only take half a dose at a time.

As someone who went to college in Louisiana, has every family member living here, and is currently living in the New Orleans area, I highly approve of this post.

0/10 will never freeze spaghetti squash again. DON'T DO IT

I have Legion Pulse- it's expensive, but I only take half the serving size. I bought it mainly because it has clinical dosages of all the ingredients and a good bit of caffeine.

The recipe I use is: 25g protein powder (I use PEScience) 7g coconut flour 30g canned pumpkin 69g liquid egg whites (I think that's 4.5 Tb?) 1 Tb cocoa powder (can omit if you don't want a chocolate flavor) 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/3 c almond milk You could definitely increase the amount of coconut…

My friends who binge-drink alcohol multiple times a week but won't touch diet soda because it's "unhealthy" and makes you fat............... okay

Good surprise: Shrimp, crabmeat, crawfish... I live in Louisiana, and this made me very happy! Bad surprise: Peanut butter, hummus, pretty much any condiment that isn't plain mustard or hot sauce- I was always aware of the caloric content, but when you weigh that stuff out, it is really depressing to see how small one…

I think the rice is soooo much better than the noodles. If you've ever had Israeli (pearled) couscous, it reminds me of that texture. The rice also holds sauce/cheese better than the noodles do, in my opinion. The rice is a lot harder to find in stores for me, though.
-
I'm not a huge fan of the noodles, but I found that the rice actually has about the same consistency as Israeli (pearled) couscous, which I loooove. It doesn't have much taste though.

Spray the popcorn with some olive oil spray, and sprinkle on some Parmesan and Italian seasoning- so good! I also like to use cinnamon and Splenda.

Didn't technically happen to ME, but... yesterday a guy walked behind me while I was squatting and was pretty obviously staring at my butt, and he ran face-first into the door frame next to me! All his friends laughed at him- I felt bad, but not THAT bad... :D Let that be a lesson to all the oglers out there! lol

I've been in a pretty bad binge cycle since I got back from the beach on Sunday. I kinda figured it would happen, but I didn't think it would be THIS bad... I wake up with a binge "hangover" and awful bloating that lasts all day and pretty much makes me completely unproductive. My parents are visiting this weekend, and I…

I had a bad binge day yesterday and now I am super bloated and puffy... binge "hangovers" are the worst. Time to start fresh with a new week though!
-
What is your presentation on? Maybe if you tell us about it, it'll help :) I'm thinking of going to grad school myself within the next year.
-
I've been doing okay this week, but I have a graduation party to go to tomorrow and a brunch on Sunday.... I'm really bad about just saying "screw it" and binging when I can't realistically log what I'm eating/drinking, and I'm so nervous I'm going to ruin all my hard work from this week. I'm also going to the beach in a…

Me! Well, I live on the West Bank right now but I work in NOLA

Fit Crunch bars (the ones by Robert Irvine) taste like an actual candy bar. No joke. I buy them at Walmart. They aren't super low in carbs but mannnn are they good

I'm so happy to have found this group! I have been struggling with food issues since I was about 13. I had anorexia throughout high school, and that morphed into BED in college. I have somehow managed to maintain (and even lose) weight at times, even with BED. MFP has definitely helped me stick to a "normal" eating pattern…

I'm so happy I found this thread. I'm currently coming off of a really bad binge from yesterday and I'm not feeling too great about myself... I've been struggling with this for almost 10 years, and I am sick and tired of feeling this way. All of you feel free to add me!
-
I'm in! I'm going to the beach in two weeks, so there's no room for error on the weekends anymore-they are my biggest weakness!
-
I'm also 5'2" and looking to lose the last few pounds! I was where you were about a year ago, and now I'm trying to lose a little body fat and gain muscle (I look about 10 lbs heavier than I really am- yay for being short haha), and I am going to the beach in 2 weeks with friends. Feel free to add me!
-
That looks amazing! I will definitely have to try it
-
I haven't had a binge-free Sunday in SO long, and today I finally did it! Here's to starting the week off feeling happy and healthy :)
-
This is a game changer! I need to pick this book up!
-
For some weird reason, a big ole sweet potato topped with sauteed veggies and a little cheese fills me up more than any food I've ever eaten, haha. You can top them with anything-chili, pulled pork/chicken, salsa and beans- the possibilities are endless!

Check out hungrygirl.com! There are tons of "recipe makeovers" on their site.

You know, I've actually been trying to put this feeling into words for the past couple days, and you did it! I absolutely mourn this; I am also fairly short (and looking to lose the last few lbs), and I can easily undo a week's worth of a deficit in an HOUR on the weekends. Unfortunately, I don't feel as though this desire…
-
You are so right! Thank you for this; it's exactly what I needed to hear today!
-
4 days binge-free!! Instead of being impatient with my weight loss and over-restricting/binging/repeat, I'm finally learning to "trust the process" and it seems to be helping so far :)

I'm about 115 right now (5'2"), looking to lose maybe 6 or 7 more pounds. I'm completely happy with my upper body, but my lower body is still a mess. My legs are (at least) an entire pants size larger than what will fit my waist, so hopefully these last few pounds will come off of that area :D
