My co-workers all eat York Peppermint Patties (the mini ones), as they are lower in calories than other chocolate options. Plus, they're delicious.

Also try adding nutritional yeast to things like air popped popcorn. It has a lot of protein, and it tastes yummy, AND it's vegan!

What about a Tbsp. of almond butter, accompanied by fresh fruit and plain yogurt. Agave nectar or honey might be better sweeteners than processed sugar.

This is fun! I said no to: *eating the other half of a dark chocolate bar *gluten free vanilla cheesecake *chai latte *taking a nap (went for a walk instead)

I wasn't losing anything for the longest time. Since Jan. 1st, I've been slowing shedding the pounds...thank goodness! I keep calories between 1200 and 1500 a day, and occasionally go over up to 1850, but only if I exercise and burn off some of those extra calories. It is important to stay active, but to also get around…
