Quest protein cheddar chips (140 calories per bag) Fiber one chocolate chip granola bar (140 calories per bar) Chobani Flips (190-250 calories) I…

  • I personally struggled with soda addiction for about 17 years, try sparkling water! I swear by sparkling water, you have to try different brands and different flavors until you find one that works for you but after you do that you can quit the sparkling water with fruit infused water or mio and other things until all you…
  • Veggies, fruit, albacore tuna, hot sauce, salsa, progresso light soups, egg substitute, lean meats, pickles, sardines, fiber one chocolate chip granola bars! :smile:
  • Love sardines especially in hot sauce, high in sodium but other than that I do not worry about the mercury.
  • I log everything, even vitamins. Although I used to work for a major weight loss company and they tracked everything, but said that you could eat as many vegetables as you wanted even if it put you over your calories for the day. So yes I count them, but if I am over because of the extra veggies or the macros are off…
  • I have had serious issues with sleep all my life, just found this https://www.amazon.com/DRIFTOFF-Natural-Sleep-Valerian-Melatonin/dp/B015QGJ98G called driftoff on Amazon, it helps me. I think most people with our issue would do well to take it. Hope you find something that works for you. Good luck
  • Look for a yogurt based dressing usually found in the grocery store in the refrigerated produce section next to all the greens. Usually around 45 calories for 2 tablespoons. I personally love the taste of every one I have tried. Good luck
  • Sounds gross but I wouldn't shake it in a shaker- beer is carbonated it will explode and you would end up with a flat beer mixed with protein... why not just down the protein first, how long could it take= 1 minute? Good luck
  • 42 is not "too old", I am not sure what your personal story is for this "pain" but I can assure you... ANYONE can work their way up to exercise, even if they use a step tracker like fitbit and say this week my goal is to do 250 more steps every day. Or go for a walk around the block, then after you're comfortable do 2…
  • Vegetables, fruits, lean meats, are where its at! You can also find processed low calorie foods but still will not be as filling. Finding recipes on here mfp, pinterest, and instagram and other sites are the key!
  • I like daves killer bread as well, and natures harvest 40 Calorie per slice bread.
  • I've been buying kodiac power flapjack cakes for a couple of years now, adding just water does still taste great. Adding milk, or eggs, or even making something else such as muffins with it is up to you. I highly suggest you look up the recipes for the mix online, you'll find a lot of different healthy protein pack recipes…
  • I'm in again, my goal this month is 250 miles. I lowered my mile goal this month because I started doing more circuit training last month and almost didn't achieve my goal of 350 miles because of that. So goal adjusted and am ready to smash it again! Let's go November!
