Amarantha, as far a lo-cal or lo-fat pie crust, I use Lite butter when making pie crust. Land 'O Lakes makes it--it's butter with half the fat removed somehow. It's really good. OR you could even used grated potatoes---you can buy them already grated in the dairy section of most supermarkets; I think the brand is 'Simply Potatoes'.

Ok, guys, I just posted on an EFL (Eating for Life, a BFL plan) thread that Suzanne has started on the general diet plans forum and I'm saying it again (more forcefully here amongst my compadres) I'M SICK AND TIRED OF S****ING AROUND AND I'M GOING TO BE STRICTER IN FOLLOWING EFL!!! I say "stricter" because while I advocate this WOE, I believe there are a number of useful whole grains, proteins and fat items that aren't exactly on ol' Bill's authorized list of "right foods" ... so I decide what foods are authorized. But except for my free day (or emergencies), I'm not considering junk food as authorized. Still counting calories as before and doing my regular exercise program.
Eydie, thanks for the pie crust idea. I'm thinking whole wheat would be good with the lite butter? I'm kind of getting to like whole wheat better than the white stuff! I think that's progress? Saving a pm, I'll just address this to Eydie (but others may read it, 'cause I REALLY MEAN IT, remember that SO program we talked about ... well, I've decided I'm going to cut that out as well as it's time I could be spending a) exercising, b) working productively to further my life c) cooking healthy foods or d) talking to the :queen: s!!!! Ok, bye!!! |

That's a good way to do it, Anagram, posting instead of jotting. I find I use my spreadsheet throughout the day if I'm home and it's loads easier than writing things down.
Ok, in the interest of full disclosure here, I have to report that at approximately 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, long after posting my report, the binge :devil: got into the house and attacked me with my HEALTHY EFL food. It was so fast and furious, I didn't even notice how much I had and didn't log anything. So I'm zeroing out that day on my spreadsheet and moving forward! At least it wasn't those dang pb cups!!!

I launched myself so hard off the wagon that I swear I broke my :censored:
Fondue restaurant last night. Cheese fondue followed by fondue followed by chocolate fondue. Plus two martinis - one raspberry one chocolate. I have no idea what the nutritional value is of all this stuff, but I imagine that it was approximately a billion calories. I had fun though. Today so far, multi-grain hot cereal thingy. and coffee. :coffee: |

Had a bowl of ice cream, but was hungry, that was what I wanted. Had the flexpoints for it. I think were it not for the flexpoints, I might have felt like I'd blown my diet and had more! This could work! :yes: Bottom line: Weight loss day |
