100%whole wheat, no oil english muffins?

Stay on Wagon w/ Boyfriend
I am at my heaviest right now, 154 lbs. (my weight fluctuates up to 5 lbs a day though so numbers are hard - I can tell how I am doing by how my clothes fit).

What are some easy ways to sneak fiber and protein in to my diet? I work all day so can't make up a chicken breast, plus I don't really like big slabs of meat. And I didn't even know I was not eating much fiber until I added it to MFP log and saw how low it was!

Does anyone want to try it out with me? I have never done it before and need support! I thought we could measure ourselves and check in once a week or something? Its hard to do weight for this b/c I assume you gain a lot of muscle so see more toning than weight loss........

Hello all. I started this journal this week as a way to help me realize how many calories are actually in my food. Very suprising! I never guessed a TBSP of honey as 68 calories! Wowza. Anyways, I am trying to lose 20 lbs by May 31st, which is my birthday. I started in April (figured 2 lbs a week) and have been exercising…
