  • Air popped popcorn has very few calories, so you can eat a lot of it. Butter seems to be the big calorie issue with popcorn. My favorite was to pop the popcorn and spray it with pam or water or something (mainly to get it wet so that salt will stick) and add seasoned salt. I liked to pair that with a homemade Italian soda…
  • VSL-3 is said to help with IBD. No idea if any probiotics help with acid reflux, though Whatever you end up getting, get the stuff that has to be rrefrigerated
  • They are back to being ball-shaped! I remember when they changed. They used to be balls before they were fruit. I also thought they got sweeter when they became fruit-shaped. I didn't like them as well, then. Could have just been me though. I'm also convinced that shapes Kraft mac and cheese tastes better than the elbow…
  • I take primrose for a couple of days beforehand. Seems to help a little. Not a lot, but I'll take what I can get
  • Did you lose weight, never bothered me, but I never know what to say. Do I offer how much? I'm proud of my loss, but don't want to admit how much I used to weigh. Usually, I say, "Yeah. Some. Thanks!" Then there's the "How'd you do it?" questions, that I used to ask, so I'm sympathetic to those questions, but feel like…
  • Salt! I'm in love with salt.
  • Bigsby
  • Is this like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern's question tennis? Are there rules? Is repletion allowed? How about rhetoric?
  • Different brand than you use, but Breyers vanilla 1/2 cup = 66 grams, Ben and Jerry's 1/2 cup chunky Monkey or vanilla = 107 grams, Chio Bello Sorbet 1/2 cup = 102 grams, Blue bunny lists 1/2 cup at 66 grams, Braums 1/2 cup = 65 grams, Dean's 1/2 cup = 68 grams, I see your point. You either had slightly more than 1 serving…
  • I like their raisin bread, but goes bad somewhat quickly if you are the only one eating it.
  • I eat 1200 calories per day and cheese is a huge part of that, I eat 2/3 oz - 1 oz for lunch almost everyday and 1 &1/3oz for dinner. Then often I add a string cheese as a snack. I eat Dubliner for lunch and mozzarella or jack for dinner. On weekends I might change it up
  • Not an app, but I like Stanford's low FODMAP info
  • I eat a protein bar for breakfast, for lunch, a hard boiled egg and 2/3 - 1 oz hard cheese and for dinner, I usually have some sort of quesadillas - 3 corn tortillas & 1-1.33 oz Jack or mozzarella cheese, sometimes I add meat. Then I add snacks like yogurt or jello or something potato based. My diet isn't the best and I…
  • Biscuits! I don't even like biscuits (I know, I'm weird) but I was at a work function and decided to eat one so that there was food on my plate and then I logged, Wow! Too many calories for a food I don't even like
  • I like string cheese Hard boiled egg and cheese (1 oz or less) is another favorite Air-popped popcorn is pretty low in calories and you can have a lot of it. Adding butter adds a lot of calories, so I like to spray it with cooking spay, just to get it "wet" and add season salt.

  • I have a Taylor scale. I got Taylor because I've had other Taylor brands and they seemed good - didn't break, accurate, so I trust the brand. But if you are looking for more advice beyond brand name, I'd just look for something with a digital readout, and does both grams and ounces. I also have a cheaper (and older) scale…
  • yogurt covered fruits or pretzels
  • What does your fiancé do there? Maybe he find the nutrition content since he works there. Or at least how much of the toppings and cheese are used in each pizza. As far as the slices go, can you estimate based on % of whole pizza eaten. If it is just you and your fiancé eating, split the pizza in half and see how much you…
  • Frist when my pants fit again Then when they kept falling off Also recently fit into high school prom dress. This is the one I'm most excited about for some reason
  • These all sound great! @JustinAnimal you sound like a great husband! @roxielu0422 what's a WW meal?
  • I like Pure Protien bars for breakfast because its fast and easy. My lunch sounds like a breakfast and that's a hard boiled egg and 2/3 - 1 oz of hard cheese. Sounds like the breakfast of a fantasy novel to me!
  • Last year we bought a mattress
  • Awesome Hope you both have a good one Hope your dishwasher gets installed @shellma00‌ !
  • I like Pure Protein bars esp. the Chocolate Deluxe. 180 calories, 21 g of protein. I have a terrible time getting protein into my diet and these really help
  • I need to hang out with your friends. All I can find are fiber - happy people and food. (I'm fiber sensitive, so I actually try to limit my fiber and it's more difficult than you'd think! )
  • pumpkin cheesecake, but my house always had pumpkin pie and pecan pie, both of which, I don't like. Sometimes, as kid, if we had a lot of people over for Thanksgiving, I could talk my mom into serving apple pie too, but usually she just told me that we can't have 3 pies. I think only my grandpa liked pecan pie
  • I'm not a big fan of Thanksgiving / Thanksgiving food and my family is far away, so my husband and I are going to use the day to drive up north and take a mini-vacation for 3 days. Christmas is different. I need a plan for that and I don't have one yet! I agree with the other poster, all the little treats and candies are…
  • When I've used PTs, I've gone to a separate nutritionist / dietian. Basically go to each person for their own specialty. Let each know about the other. The nutritionist needs to know about your workouts for an appropriate calorie requirement. The best situation is if they work with each other and you. The diet above is…
