I agree the soups all need to soak. I mix up my soup for my lunch when I do my first fueling at breakfast.
I wish we could order single packets so we could try things out. I still have things from my first box. Most of the hacks haven't helped. The mac and cheese and the oatmeal is O.o no matter what you do to them. The garlic potatoes and the sweet potatoes are tolerable if you waffle them. The pancakes are kinda bland. They would be okay if I could put butter and syrup on them.
A lot of the fuelings are better if you waffle them. Some people use a Dash mini waffle iron. I use my regular one.
I like the cinnamon sugar sticks with a wedge of Laughing Cow. Counts as one condiment.
One thing that has helped me is to split my meal. I use 3/4 of a Lean at dinner. That gives me 1/4 lean to eat as a mini meal. 3 oz Cottage Cheese with 1/2 tsp of Brown Sugar Splenda is one of my favorites.
Sometimes I eat 2 Greens and save one so that I can do 1/2 cup Buttercup Squash (20 cal 4.7 carb 0 fat) with 1/2 tsp of Brown Sugar Splenda (10 cal 2 carbs 0 fat) . See a pattern here. Did I mention I have a sweet tooth.
