I like Trutein and Quest - - both let you purchase samples on their site before you buy a larger container.
-
If you buy online it's about $25 for a box of 12 - - they always have free shipping codes out there. Some taste better than others. I like the Blueberry Muffin, S'mores, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip and Chocolate Brownie.

Love Quest and Trutein
-
I like several different shake mixes - but Trutein is one of my faves - - You can order samples off of their site. I keep the sample packets in my desk at work and they mix well with water and taste great!!

Popcorn - which is bad for me due to carbs (health reasons).

LOVE my CPAP!! Before being diagnosed with sleep apnea (stopped breathing in my sleep), I was always tired. I put my CPAP on and I sleep like a baby. Our accountant passed away from sleep apnea - didn't use his CPAP. Now I can't sleep without it.
-
I too have PCOS (along with some other health issues). From 2012 to mid 2014 (year and half) I lost 90 pounds by keeping my carbs under 100g. I gained most of that weight back when I suffered a broken ankle and had to wear cast/boot for 4 months. During that time my popcorn addiction kicked in - and the 4-5 microwave bags…

I wish MFP would add a LIKE button - these are some great posts/comments!!

Just ordered a box based on everyone's comments (and a mixed box of chocolate quest bars). Can't wait for them to arrive - it'll be like an early Christmas at my house!! :)
-
I just ordered the toffee and the cinnamon and raisin - - can't wait to get them!!!
-
I have Rheumatoid and Psoriatic arthritis, Fibro, hypothyroidism, anemia and low vitamin D (throw in PCOS and now we're having fun - NOT). I've been on here about a year and a half - - lost 90 lbs - - but in the past 5 months - gained back half of that by eating microwave popcorn non-stop. I know the right things to do and…

LOVE Chickfila grilled nuggets - - 220 calories, no carbs (personally - I have to watch carbs - so this is a great option for me).
-
603reader - you may be on to something :) but just thought someone would know of a great salty/crunchy substitute that could be lower in carbs. Thanks
-
There is no way, under normal circumstances would I have gone to the area I did - AND FOR POPCORN?!! So yup - I am classifying it an addiction. It can result in disability if I keep eating the way I am (Again carbs are what's bad for me not so much the calories). It seems silly - but I don't smoke, drink, do drugs, (do…
-
Some days I will go without real food to eat MORE popcorn - besides my trip to the seedy area for popcorn, this is another reason I have to somewhat curb this craving. I did so well for so long.
-
Thanks everyone - - will def have try air popped or boom chicka pop. And I don't want popcorn cough!!! I appreciate all of the input
-
serendipte I watch carbs more than calories due to some medical/health issues.
-
ndj1979 - the definition of addiction is: the fact or condition of being addicted to a particular substance, thing, or activity. Being that it's something I crave all of the time I felt as if the word addiction suited what I felt. :)
-
Hmmm - you may be right about sodium. I will have to look into that - I usually eat pretty bland. michellemybell - I am talking 3 bags a day - - crazyyyy - I have NEVER loved any food like this (I am 50 - so we are talking a long time of never craving something this bad before - haha). But def need a replacement. I cannot…
-
Pork Rinds - DISGUSTINGGGG!!! I thought I would be able to eat them and break my popcorn addiction - but HOLY MOLY - they were the worst things I have ever tasted - blech :(
-
PopSecret movie theatre microwave popcorn - I am addicted - UGH. I have tried on several occasions to "break up" with PopSecret - but it hasn't worked. :(
-
Hypo (and PCOS) here as well - - the only thing that works for me is lowering my carb intake. My sisters count calories (but they have no health issues) and they lose - - counting calories does not work for me. When I was pregnant with our youngest daughter carbs made me sick - couldn't eat them and I lost 41lbs while…

Just had to try the Caramel Apple Greek Yogurt -- it's very good too (although not as good as the Pumpkin Cheesecake - my new obsession - haha). But where Caramel Apple has 50 less calories (Pumpkin Cheesecake has 150, CA has 100) and 0 fat (PC has 2.5g), CA has 12g of protein/PC has 11, CA has 12 carbs/PC has 20. Hitting…
-
I'm not a huge fan of greek yogurt - but pumpkin cheesecake I had to try!!! I usually by dannon's low sugar/low car yogurt. I can't wait to eat the caramel apple now (maybe that'll be dinner tonight). If I had a graham cracker it would have been a mini pumpkin cheesecake fest in my office :)
-
Mine is open - but if you're looking for clean eating - this is NOT the diary for you :)
-
I usually get the grilled tenderloins or meatloaf and for my sides either green beans, side salad, broccoli, seasonal veggies, cucumber/tomato/onion salad or fresh fruit (which also doubles as dessert)
-
Eggs (unless they're pickled), any meats beside chicken (white meat only) and the occasional burger (welllll done).
-
I still eat pizza (and any other food I want). When we order pizza - I have them double cut the slices. When I eat 2 slices - it's really only one - - if I have 3 slices - - it's 1.5 regular slices. Usually after I eat the 1st 2 halves I am full. I guess I would have lost more than 90lbs in the past year or so if I didn't…
