How do you do your cc/pudding mixture? I just mixed in 1 box of sf butterscotch pudding mix with 2 cups cc. Is that it? I'm eating one cup with some kashi cereal for lunch and it is pretty good. I might have the other cup for an afternoon snack.

It depends on the texture I'm in the mood for. I usually like a thick, almost paste-like texture so I'll mix it the way you describe, just dump the mix in with the cottage cheese, perhaps adding a drizzle of water in to give enough moisture to be able to stir it. Other times, I like it more pudding like and will add about a cup of water. I stir the cottage cheese up with the water making a milk-like substance before adding the pudding mix. This still sets faster and a bit thicker than pudding made with 2 cups of milk. I've done it with 1 cup of cc and 1 cup of water and this matches the texture of regular pudding almost exactly, but tasted a bit diluted to me.
The chocolate, chocolate fudge, and cheesecake puddings also go well with frozen berries or cherries. The juice from the thawed berries usually adds the just the right amount of moisture for my taste.
I haven't done the pudding and CC in a long time, sounds like a nice change... I usually put the pudding and cc in a large bowl and used my hand mixer to smooth it out. I also smooth out my cc and add vanilla and Splenda, that's quite yummy too..
The last couple of days has been good, Friday was a wash though...
Today I ran to and from the gym, 20 mins each way, I do this a lot in the summer, did a quicky workout 30 mins, once there... then this afternoon DH and I went for an hour walk...
Meal 1: Breakfast Burrito - 1 cup egg whites and 1 whole egg scrambled, 3 oz italian style chicken sausage, and taco sauce all rolled up in a low carb, flax-enriched lavash.
Meals 2 and 3 (1/2 recipe each meal): 3 bags stir fry veggies, 8oz 96% lean ground beef, and 1/2 cup jalfrezzi curry sauce.
Meal 4: The usual turkey rollup
3 cups of coffee with sf coffee mate throughout the day.
Exercise:
10 rounds of tabata sprints on the stationary bike followed by 30 minutes of steady state on the bike.
See how different we all are.... I absolutely cannot bear the taste of SF pudding - or almost anything with artificial sweetner. I usually will just eat less of the real thing. Though I was packing for a short retreat where we had to bring our own snacks, and in comparing the calories on chocolate pudding cups, found that the real stuff was only 10-15 calories more a serving. Totally worth it to me. BUT, sugar rarely sets off overeating/bingeing for me. I'm all about salt in that respect.
