:laugh: WHOOOOO HOOOOOO!!!!!!!

yes halloween is tomorrow but where i live we do trick or treating the night before halloween. and thanks for the suggestions. i think i will eat before and take a healthy snack with me in case i get hungry. :)

you can just eliminate the salt. Salt is just used in recipes to enhance the other flavors in the food. However with bread salt acts as an inhibitor to the yeast so just watch the bread closely as it may rise a bit quicker without the salt. :)

what do you recommend for a low carb snack then? most of my carbs come from my after dinner snack. i have to have something after dinner.......any ideas?

athenos is a really good brand. i like the sabre chipotle one though. thats my fav!

i can so relate. i have had bouts with eating disorders and i am also OCD. this sometimes consumes my life. i was irritation people i love around me because i would talk about calories, being fat, food, exercise all the time. i have learned to not talk about it so much but it is always a constinat thought in my…

@sleepytexan- even though i am eating 1600-2400 calories my body will still store fat if i am burning more? i have upped my calories from 1000-1400 to 1600-2400 already. i gained about 4lbs but i do not know if it is from eating more or weightlifting because i started lifting at the same time.
