Cinaburst cheerios! *with or without milk they are delicious

Welcome to MFP! This site is a great source of information. Ask questions and read the message boards.. People on here are great sources of information and inspiration. Hope you have fun loosing the weight!

Thanks to those of you who could get the pictures to work. Don't know why I can't get the links to work. If anyone can show me how I would be greatly appreciative.

I work in the same type of office and have had some issues with snacks. Love the idea of brushing teeth and will have to try that one. I have a few ways to avoid the snacking. One is grabbing a big glass of water in the afternoons and every time I want to eat I drink some. Another is making sure I don't go near where we…

I agree with beck. Asked my hubby for some suggestions, he drives for a living and he has little to no time to stop to eat: Applesauce (he tells me he drinks it like water) , Fruit strips (we get the kind from target that is all natural), pack cubes of meat and cheese (he just opens the container and eats them) no bread,…

Great advice from everyone Two things to ad. One your in - laws are probably not in town a lot so if you do over eat a little don't worry. Two this is lunch you can always make a very small supper to compensate. Instead of your normal just make a good salad or veggies.

Sugar free chocolate pudding and chocolate mouse are great to curb the cravings.

You will be fine. One day doesn't kill you. Try to log what you eat to the best of your ability and don't stress about it. Also get one plate and don't go for seconds. And what I do for cake is say yes thanks but a very small piece.

Some things I do for breakfasts Nutrigrain eggo (put it in the toaster as I get ready) Life cereal bar (favorite banana nut) Cinnaburst cheerios (pack a 1 cup in a Tupperware and eat dry) Also for Juice I drink V8 fusion light. (bought a little water bottle and put it in there 8oz = 50 cal and it includes a veggie, There…

My hubby's idea of cooking is going out. I do most of the cooking and baking in our house. Good thing I love to take recipes and make them my own by changing and substituting.

If you like a certain style of jeans, also try going to thrift stores. Right now I am still in the weight loss portion and am having the same issue. Luckily I have found some old pants in the back of my closet that are fitting. But not enough so I went to the local thrift stores (Goodwill, Salvation Army, Savers and Earth…

One point I didn't see was if you are exercising that much you may be gaining muscle. If so muscle weighs more then fat. That might be why you are gaining . Don't worry this will work itself out. Muscle burns more calories then fat so eventually you will loose weight. Might just take awhile for your body to adjust. You…

I usually get the weight watchers foods from there but they are still bad on sodium

I agree with what people are saying. If you are logging your workouts in MFP than the system is tracking how much your eating with exercise. If not start logging it, this might help you. Also if your still stuck start yo yoing your balance. It might be your body needs you to jump start it. There have been some good threads…

My hubby swears by kleen Kanteen

100 cal pacs, sugar free jello and pudding with a little fat free whipcream. 100 cal packs, cinaburst cerreal

So far I have been both donating and buying clothes from Goodwill. That way I don't have to pay alot for clothes (pants here are about 4-8) and I get a tax deduction next year. Also have a few friends that are bigger then me and they have been letting me buy there old clothes.

thank you for your help

Here are some quick easy foods that I like in the AM, Life Cereal Bars, Nutrigrain Eggo, Fruit smoothie (1 cup v8 fusion to 1 cup frozen fruit), hard boiled eggs. Cinnamon burst cheerios (dry)

I measure every time I server food. The packages are very probematic. The can say there is 4 servings of 1/2 Cup and one time it will be true . The next time 3 1/2 cups servings. Just keep measuring and you should be ok.

Wow great suggestions. I will have to try them. Thanks!

Make sure your getting plenty of water bc that is when I feel hungry. I also make sure to have some fruit ready when I know I am going to crave... Usually around 10 and 3 so I do not grab the junk food in our office.

Sorry to hear about your gallbladder and hope you feel better soon. I do have one piece of advice that a nurse told me after my surgery that I never knew . You will be tired for several weeks because of the anesthesia.

If I am not hungry... I will usually pack a v8 fusion and a cereal bar. ..I usually eat them if i get hungry but if I don't I make sure to at least drink my juice

I just started using ground turkey for food and I like it. It doesn't taste like hamburger it is different. But I have been using it for foods I used to put hamburger in. Hubby said yesterday it was really good as meatloaf.

We luck out in our offices. Each of us has our own little heater so unless someone is in my office I can do whatever I want with it. TG!

I cook almost all types of meat on mine. Also use it when i make tortilla shell wraps. Hubbies ... tortilla shell, refried beans, chicken, cheese, salsa and sour cream. Mine ... tortilla shell, chicken, cheese, honey mustard dressing, and lettuce.

There are a lot of reasons your body can fluctuate in a day. Besides being sick, was there something you ate that made you retain water (ex Chinese food) Is it that time of the month, mine goes up and down like a rocket then. Being sick. There are so many things that are very easy to understand. My favorite saying is " A…

If I am working a life cereal bar with a 8oz 8 fusion. If I am not working a nutrigrain eggo with 1 tbsp butter and 8 oz v8 fusion.
