  • Personally, I do not like it. But, my husband loves it. He just makes some oatmeal, puts two tablespoons of greek yogurt on there and some fruits to top it off. It is very filling (so he says).
  • Spaghetti squash is the best thing you can do and it tastes soooooooo much better!
  • Personally, I both like and dislike MFP. I love the idea that this is community of support centered around being "healthy". Now, as to why I put healthy in quotations.
