Wasa Crackers. One large one is only 35 calories. I love how dense and hearty they are!

I love unsweetened almond milk. I made cream of wheat with it this morning and loved it. If I have too much dairy I notice my skin breaks out a little. So I stick with almond milk. I also love making hot chocolate out of it!

Congratulations on your success! It sounds like you are doing a terrific job! It is a great feeling to fit into clothing that you could barely squeeze into before. I too live with a guy who indulges in high calorie foods and it is difficult. When I smell what he is eating or cooking I find myself wanting to indulge too.…

It wasn't so much of a secret, but rather a choice to keep it private. There are a lot of opinionated people in my life and I didn't need anyone telling me what to do or how to do it. Or question my motives. I made a choice to start eating healthy, too only put nourishing foods into my body. I made a choice to exercise…

Bump.

I guess you have to find what works for you. When I was loosing, I never ate my calories. I think that's what helped me in loosing. But now that I'm maintaining, I do eat some of the calories back. If I find myself getting too hungry then I'll adjust as needed. So I guess it's all about listening to your body and doing…

Lately I've been into taking a whole wheat wrap and smearing it with a tablespoon of sugar free apricot jam, then a few slices of turkey, and a piece of Kraft fat free swiss cheese. Roll it all up then devour!!

One of my indulgences is hot chocolate. I love the unsweetened almond milk with an envelope of Starbucks Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate. It's a delicious, rich, creamy treat at only 160 calories total.

I love the Sunkist light tuna pouches. I have several I keep at work. I sprinkle a few drops of Tabasco sauce on it and eat it right out of the pouch. 80 calories!!

16lbs in two months is fabulous! Keep up the great work!

I find always having chopped carrots, celery, broccoli, grape tomatoes always around me helps greatly with the munchies. I also snack on pickles when I'm craving something salty. If I need a chocolate fix I'll have one dark chocolate Hershey kiss and let it slowly melt in my mouth. Just because we choose to eat less than…

So happy to see this new group. I choose to eat less than 1200 calories a day. It works great for me. I feel healthy. I'm at my goal weight!! I'm more fit than I've ever been in my life. I would love to receive and offer support to those like me, without the fear of judgement or harassment. Thanks for starting this up!!

I didn't think I could do it either. I found it really tough & had to get several days in before I could even keep up. I'm 5 days away from finishing the shred!! I see definition in my stomach, which is my trouble zone. I see muscles in my arms, back, and shoulders. I'm just so glad I stuck it out. It is still hard, but…

A hunting knife I'm supposed to give to my boyfriend, from his buddy I ran into today.

My boyfriend said to me that my *kitten* was getting wider. He said this while I was getting dressed. Even though I've lost all the weight I needed to, I'm still uncomfortable with him seeing me naked.

Thank you & bump!

Thank goodness for the MFP data base. Did you know that Dairy Queen has a 50 calorie fudge bar? Now when my sweetheart wants to go get a blizzard for himself, I don't have to be left out, or sit there sipping ice water. The fudge bars are so delish!

bump and thank you!

I struggle with this too. I like the Sunkist Chunk Tuna Light in the little pouches. High in protein and low in calories!

I'm a small business owner and I take my lunch to work with me. Lately I've been eating those Sunkist tuna pouches. I squirt a little horseradish or Tabasco sauce ( I like spicy stuff) right into the pouch and eat it like that. It's low cal and high protein. I also don't get a bunch of dirty dishes to clean up.

Thank you! I'm going to make them first thing in the morning. I'll be dreaming about them!

Welcome Tina! May you have all the success, happiness, and positivity in the world!!

I also eat too much in the evenings, usually out of boredom. I've taken up crochet. It keeps my brain and hands busy. I don't think about food. It's great when I realize a whole evening has gone by without any thoughts of eating. Getting into a really good book helps too!

Thank you and bump!
