I would agree with this. I am constantly trying to reduce my amounts of waste, so I prefer to use Pyrex. I've had my current set for years and I love them. Plus they don't get stained by food! :)

I will second the tuna/chicken pouches. I personally enjoy the jalapeno and buffalo ones. As far as snack-type items, I really like Built Puffs. They are easy to eat, have a decent amount of protein and feel like a treat. Rather than ordering a whole case online, I think GNC sells individual bars. Try one first before…

I'm currently on a medication where I am supposed to limit my caffeine intake. I had a sugar free Monster last week like I normally do (one per day) and that was an awful idea. I am now trying the V8 Sparkling Energy. Not as much caffeine and (hopefully) a bit better for me. I just wish they came in 16 oz cans lol. Has…

I haven't done it, but it sounds like you have a good approach. Take things slowly and find things you enjoy first. I would imagine reintroducing eggs and dairy may be the easiest to start, and then meat in things like spaghetti or chicken caesar salads - things where meat isn't the main dish, but it is included in it.

I love Pyrex. I don't think I could ever go back to plastic.
-
Lays made a BLT chip years ago that was good. I'll buy them!
-
You all really have me tempted to buy one of these, but I have to wait until later this year to be able to afford it! Too many other plans this summer!
-
Oooh, I am intrigued by these. I wonder if I can find them locally or if I will need to order online.

JUST STARTED The Gunslinger By Stephen King In the first book of this series, Stephen King introduces readers to one of his most enigmatic heroes, Roland of Gilead, The Last Gunslinger. He is a haunting figure, a loner on a spellbinding journey into good and evil. In his desolate world, which frighteningly mirrors our own,…

I enjoyed the Little Fires Everywhere mini-series on Hulu, I've been meaning to check out the book too.

I was just researching moving to an Apple Watch since I think my Fitbit is on it's last life. Little more expensive, but it looks like the Apple Watch has more features I wish my Fitbit had. Plus I wouldn't have to have my phone on me!

I make chicken breasts/tenderloins quite often. Hard boiled eggs (no cleanup!) We made a jalapeno meatloaf once a few years ago that turned out great.

I work from home, so it is much easier for me, but my goal is just to get 250 steps minimum in per hour. I usually try for 1000 per hour though, so my larger goal of 10K is a little more feasible by the end of the work day. If I were in an office, I would try to walk over to co-workers desks if I have questions rather than…

When is this? I'll be visiting Chicago soon and am hoping to move there within the next 1-2 years. Would love to participate if they allow walkers as well!

I ended up ordering the Bob's Red Mill brand on Amazon for now. Probably overpaid, but my options were pretty limited in my area for the quantity I wanted. Excited to try it out and see how it compares to my previous purchase. For anyone who is interested, I've been making quinoa in my crockpot with chicken/vegetable…

Daisy brand cottage cheese with dill weed and pepitas
-
The snickerdoodle price went up since you purchased, but I got a few other tins around that price. Thanks for the tip, much cheaper than anywhere around here!
-
I really liked the seasonal snickerdoodle flavor they recently had out.
-
I rip the seal off and try to get as much of the remnants peeled off as well. Afterwards, I run the containers through the dishwasher and re-use them in the spring as seed starter containers. :)
-
I buy that same yogurt and I always have issues ripping the seal off!
-
Pepsi Twist! I really liked it when it was out in the early 2000's.
-
Cottage cheese. My personal preference is with cherry tomatoes or with pepitas and dill.
-
One item you could add is quinoa. High in protein and very versatile. Lately I've been adding tomato, zucchini and garlic and cooking it in a vegetable broth. I also add it to chili. :)
-
Bubbl'r or Waterloo sparkling waters. If you want one with more flavor and sweetness, the Walmart generic brand of sparkling water is a good stepping stone from soda, plus it's a little cheaper. I used to enjoy their white grape flavor years ago. I think they come in 12 pack cans too:…

Has anyone tried adding Ideal Greens to their smoothies? It's a powdered supplement. I plan to try doing smoothies, but am on the fence about trying the Ideal Greens in it. My plan otherwise is just frozen fruit and Light + Fit Yogurt for the extra protein. https://nutraone.defynedbrands.com/products/ideal-greens

Oooh, I'm intrigued by these. I like having Pop Tarts on hand for a snack while working, but if the price is decent on these I may need to purchase!
-
The others above have all made great points, but I would like to add to invest in a food scale and log accurately if you have not done so already. Serving sizes on packaging are merely an estimate and you would be shocked with how far each way it can sway your calorie count. Keep it up though!
-
I usually just add some picante sauce. Sometimes I'll put the egg on a single slice of bread/toast and eat it as an open faced sandwich.

I think what helped for me the most was noticing how my energy levels changed. I noticed I would be good about getting my exercise in all week up until I indulged in fast food. Once I did that, I just wanted to nap or lay around. To me, it just wasn't worth it anymore.
-
I've seen these but they have been out of my price range.
