Breakfast: 3 oz string cheese, slice of 40 cal honey wheat cinnamon toast, lemon hns mixed with the fulfill fiber.

Lunch: SMOOTHIE (5 oz ff cottage cheese, frozen no sugar added mixed fruit with strawberries, pineapples, mangos and passion fruit, 1 pkg of strawberry kiwi hns, 1 pkg of mixed fruit fiber, water - blend until smooth) 4 oz green beans sprinkled with sea salt, pepper and granulated garlic & parsley.

Dinner: Not sure yet. I have some ground turkey and was thinking about turkey taco's but I'm kind of thinking I'll go see if they have the buffalo again at HEB and have an open faced burger with some green beans (yes, green beans are my staple and I haven't gotten tired of them yet). :D

Also saved my creamy so I can try a Diet Hansen's Root Beer float with the vanilla pudding HNS as a snack later tonight.

They told me not to go longer than 5 hours between meals and if you cant eat within 5 hours because something came up then to have a hns.

Breakfast looks like you cut yourself short! If you did not have an egg, you could have had 3 oz of a Hard Cheese!

Breakfast for me: 1 egg w/2oz hard cheese on slice of toast and a HNS.

Mid morning: HNS

Lunch: 8 oz raw veggies (lettuce, tomatoe) w/6oz white tuna "Know were not supposed to but I mixed up my tuna into a tuna salad - used mustard (ok), and a little sweet relish (no go), sea salt, and pepper" Put this on my salad and sprayed it with the French Flair spritzer, for my fruit - I had an orange!

Mid afternoon: HNS

Dinner: 6 oz chicken breast with bok choy steamed with a little fresh tomatoe and a slice of 45 cal bread.

Late evening: HNS

Hope this helps some! :dizzy:

10:30: Mixed Berry HNS mixed with Berry Crystal Lite with fiber

Lunch: 6 oz. Rotisserie Chicken with mustard/horseradish dipping sauce, 4 oz. stirfried zuchini, 1/2 cup Papaya, Diet Rite

Dinner: 6oz. Grilled Chicken, 8 oz. Salad (spinach, romaine, cucumber, radish, and 2 grape tomatoes), 2 tbsp. Dijonnaise Vinegrette, 3 pieces of WASA crackerbread (not on the menu, but the same calories, fat, and carbs as melba toast), Pinapple Cocktail HNS

I am drinking another Diet Rite right now. I don't usually have more than one every day or so, but I have been craving something sweet all day.

What are your favorite flavors of the clear HNS's and is the fiber additive helpful in keeping you full between meals?

[angierue]

I definitely can tell a difference when I have the fiber with my meal. I usually just use it for breakfast and lunch, though.

Favorite concentrates - Grape and Wildberry. I go through phases with the Peach Mango. I'm not a big fan of the Orange but a lot of people like it. I've actually gotten where I like the powders better. Love the Strawberry Kiwi and Lemon. The Lemon mixed with the Mixed Fruit Fiber is good.

So I ended up with an open faced tuna sandwich and green beans for lunch. Went to HEB to get some buffalo and they were out AGAIN (were out when I went shopping Sunday too). I'm afraid they have stopped carrying it and that will SUCK! The only other places I have found it around here are the two local health food stores and they want $7.99 and $8.99 a pound!

My favorites are the orange, wild berry, and fruit punch. I was loving the pink lemonade, but for some reason I can't drink it right now. I hate the strawberry kiwi and the lemon. I really prefer the powders over the concentrates too.

Orange (reminds me of tang, sometimes add a splenda to it), Cranberry Grape, Mixed Berry Fruit, Grape (concentrate)! I prefer the powders! The concentrate Wild Berry tends to be really really sweet but is ok! I can't stand the peach/mango but some here really like it!

As for the fiber, I have never used it! Sorry no help in that area!

WOW - that is pricy!

I was wondering, if you only eat a 4oz. protein like say a turkey burger patty, can you put 2oz of cheese on it to make it 6oz of protein at a meal?

I like the peach mango, orange, grape (all in the concentrates), pink lemonade (powder) and I also get one from dietdirect that is green tea & cranberry that is quite good. I can't stand the strawberry kiwi but I know a lot of people like it.
Yes, I do think the fiber additive helps to keep you full.

I *think* that it would only be 1 oz of cheese. The center will more than likely advise you against doing this however I know several of us here do it and haven't really had any problems with losing. I'm pretty sure our "Biggest Loser" nomoredonuts has been doing it all along and he's lost 160 lbs. If you try it and it feels like you've stalled out, then I would suggest backing off or only doing it every once in a while. We all react differently to things so it might or it might not effect you. :)

Yeah, that wasn't very helpful. Sorry. ;)

I add cheese only at lunch, but its like an ounce or less. A slice of cheese is under an ounce I think and sometimes I will use a slice of provolone, or I will add less than an ounce of shredded cheddar on my green beans etc.

[stephbehrlan]

Actually that makes lots of sense. Thanks!!

Sharon, thanks for putting down that you put Crystal Lite in your HNS, I did it with my lunch and it was SOOOOO good!

I am doing so much better today. Thank Goodness!

I love that everyone is posting what they eat, it has helped me tremendously!
