My meals are under control, but I start noshing in the afternoon.

Too many!!!!

Reviving this discussion as I am now in exactly the same position as Rena was last year. (Wonder if it's the same yeshiva...). My son already warned me that I would have a difficult time and should bring food with me, but I'm not happy about sitting at the table with my own food...don't want people asking about it. Any…

Returned from vacation - with too much extra weight...Didn't walk as much as I had hoped due to the heat, but did a bit of climbing. Now the challenge is to undue the damage!

Planning a vacation next week up in the Golan Heights. Am a bit concerned about tracking the calories, but might be better off shifting my focus to tracking steps! Plan to do a lot of walking.

Friday night isn't my problem. Shabbat afternoon is. Getting up from my nap...that's when I start noshing, and noshing, and noshing...

Interesting approach. Does this work for maintaining or losing weight?

I also seem to spend the week undoing the damage from the previous Shabbat...I started to pre-log Friday nite and after Shabbat, to enter the day's worth of calories. This past Shabbat was a total disaster. We were invited out. The first course was fish - so far, so good. The main course, however, was chicken or meat (I…

Sounds yummy! Meal#1 Homemade challah minestrone soup mushroom blintzes grilled vegetables salmon salad CHEESECAKE (individual cakes for portion control) Meal#2 Homemade challah salad Noodle/cheese kugel broccoli-cauliflower kugel salmon marinated vegetables MORE cheesecake! חג שמח!

So true...

:laugh:

Thanks.

What is Greek yogurt called in Israel? Anyone know?

Special dietary needs? I'm sensitive to lactose (not full-blown intolerance) - not fun on Shavuot! I can tolerate goat milk products, but not sure how to make that work for cheesecake. Just as well, I guess. We'll probably have fish, salads & a kugel. The killer is homemade challah - yum!

I've been on MFP for a while but just found this group. Ah yes, Shavuot...My 3 sons each asked that I make them a cheesecake to take back to their hesder yeshivot for Shavuot. I'll need to clamp my jaws shut to avoid licking the bowl! :grumble: For the home, however, I think that I'll make individual cakes - using cupcake…

Hi Pheboh, I did the same thing! Was fine and progressing nicely until July and then I lost the momentum. I really want to get back on the wagon and would appreciate the support.

Is this active? I keep kosher. Holidays & Shabbat are a real challenge. Anyone have any good tips how to avoid noshing on Shabbat afternoon?

Which Fitbit do you use? I am thinking about buying one but would like to hear other people's evaluations before I do.
