Janet,
Have you tried eating smaller portions more often. I know that helps me. I know your going to say you don't have a weight problem but I feel for you. I don't like it when i gain weight and I DO>.... Carrots any veggies or fruits. Like the fruit cups. Those are great to snack on. Congrats on the lose of weight. Keep up the good work. I know you can do it.

Thanks Linda! No, I haven't really tried that yet, so maybe I should so I'm not so hungry at the evening meal. Today for breakfast I had a mini whole grain bagel with FF creme cheese. Not much, I spread it on really thin just for taste. I had a few almonds mid morning, then at lunch I ate a turkey sandwich with whole grain wheat bread, a FF cheese stick and a WW cake (they are small). I needed to get rid of my choc. craving and it worked. Then I didn't have anything all afternoon except water. For supper I had a palm size piece of round steak, 1 tablespoon of garlic mashed pototes, some fruit and lima beans. I'll continue drinking water till bedtime.
I hope I'm not cutting out too much too quick for me. I need to lose a bunch as you can tell, so maybe the fruit (although I only like bananas and apples...LOL) will tide me over between meals.

TIP: Fruit is naturally sweet but when it is digested it becomes sugar in the blood stream hence slow weight loss..... try to stay away from fruits and nuts til you get closer to your goal... on the other hand CONGRATS!!! hey 8 lbs is awesome!!!q

I have a question: I know oatmeal is suppose to be really good for you. I don't like regular oatmeal, so I was wondering if like the Quaker Maple Syrup and Brown Sugar Oatmeal would be just as good? I tried some this morning and it was good, but couldn't eat all of it. It comes in small packets. Says on the box all the benefits of oatmeal....does it have to be plain?
