jeanie Glad to see you join us.

Things have been crazy around here this week, between watching the baby, doing yard work, and trying to open my pool, I haven't had time to post. I've been reading in the mornings, while grabbing breakfast, before starting my day.

I seem to have so much to do, and not enough time to get it all done. (true for everyone, I guess.).


Some friends took me out to lunch and shopping today, to celebrate my birthday (since I had the baby last week). Totally went off program with a turkey sandwich, but it could have been worse, then I skipped dinner

Back on program starting in the morning.

Sorry I don't have time to do personals, have to get to bed, get up early in the morning to pick up the baby.

You are all doing great!

I have a question. How do you guys deal with night time eating? Lately after my lean green meal I want to eat something that is not on program. Last night i ate two of the Wonderslim desserts and was still looking for something. Plus my regular dessert.

punmama - what does your typical day look like? Are you properly measuring and weighing all your food? Are you drinking enough water?

I know for me, I am usually too stuffed to continue, that's the main reason why I ask.

If you are properly weighing and measuring, then that isn't the reason. Try eating "negative" calorie foods....such as brocolli, asparagus, lettuce, celery, turnips, spinach, mushrooms....to sate your appetite. Try drinking 2-4 ounces of water every 10 minutes (many times, our bodies mistake dehydration as hunger pains.) If you are still hungry after trying that, go ahead have an extra shake. Then follow it up with some water. Then WAIT 30 minutes. The hunger pain should have disolved by then....if not, go ahead and have another one. Aim for the lower calorie/carb ones...such as the Berry Blend fruit drink.


You are welcome amandie

I have a question about scheduling. I get a little confused when I eat my L&G for lunch instead of dinner. When having L&G for lunch, do I need to be sure and get my dessert in that afternoon? Or can I just go ahead and have my snack, then my "lunch" at dinnertime with shake, and dessert before bed?

This is what I have been doing, it's just less confusing to have my morning and afternoon snacks as usual. But there may be a reason to switch things up. Same thing if I have my LEAN for brekkie (eggs), my green with lunch or dinner. Okay for my snacks to stay in place and dessert to be before bed?

Think of it as a seperate meal...a seperate snack. And do as you would in that sense.

Yes, I drink a lot of water sometimes 12 cups a day. I will take your advice and eat more zero calorie veggies. I don't weigh or measure my veggies. I tend to stay away from carbs like rice or bread since that is a trigger food for me.
I will try the extra shake too. That might help with my cravings for something sweet. I have to get out of the habit of eating dessert right after my dinner too. Thanks Zoesmom!

I found in the beginning, it was helpful to cut my food up itsy bitsy and eat insanely slow, taking a sip of water in between each bite. Now, whatever. I usually don't even finish now. It takes time, but it does come. Promise

Disclaimer: This is NOT my recipe. I found this, tried it, and decided I kinda like it. Add salt though. I am not a salt user and I am saying, add salt!

Faux Caccia Breadsticks

1 packet Tomato Soup
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Italian seasoning, oregano, basil, salt, garlic

Blend 1 Tomato Basil soup, 1 t olive oil, 2 egg whites, 1/4 t baking powder, Italian seasoning, oregano, basil. Flatten in a pan and season with sea salt and garlic salt. Cook for 10 minutes on each side at 350. It tastes similar to tomato focaccia. Makes a great open faced sandwich. Very tasty and a nice bread substitute.

Makes 1 serving

Congratulations on your success zoesmom! That is great news. I love those little smiley faces jumping up and down on the trampoline.

You have been a very good inspiration to me. Enjoy your weekend.

Thx for the welcome! Just got my box in today! So excited . I really like the idea of bagging the days up. I babysit my grandsons during the week and sometimes don't have time to contemplate what I am going to eat. Planning on cleaning out my cupboard this weekend.
