  • Definitely try the chickpeas, I love them!! I put them on my salad all the time rather than other fattening things you could use. I'm not sure where you live if you have a Harris Teeter but I find that a lot of times if I don't have time to cook or couldn't make a lunch I will hit the salad bar. However you do have to make…

I only allow myself one coke a month and even then I can barely finish a whole can... I just prefer water now…

  • Always having water on hand does keep me from craving soda. However water day in and day out can sometimes get monotonous, so what I do is make a batch of ice tea (sans any sugar or sugar substitute).
