thanks, ladies :)
I used to drink a lot of diet drinks and I've been starting back slowly this week and I'm fine. Monday I will truly so how I feel bc I'm starting the LE diet then! I've also been preparing by having 1 nutrigrain bar (strawberry) for breakfast.. Monday I won't be having any breakfast.. just trying to get my body used to that now.
Just briefly popping in to say, Surgena, thought of you at lunch today since you’re a southwest girl…:)...I had the most wonderful hummus that was Chipotle flavored. I know you would have LOVED it! I think I found my new favorite hummus and sodium is only 75mg.
Ladies, I was wondering if you can give me a few tips on how I can increase my daily calorie intake, without adding extra nutrients, sugar, and sodium. I have been on the diet for 7 weeks and I will be TTC in March or April. I currently weigh 109, I'm 5'2" and losing weight way too fast. I would like to maintain, until the actual month TTC. any ideas on foods or treats that will add only calories to my daily 900 calorie intake? THank you.
Daily 900 calore intake consisits of:
No breakfast--cup of PP tea
12:30--1/2 cup angel hair (rice pasta), activia vanilla light, 1/2 bottle of water with crystal light in it, slice of swiss cheese.
4:00pm--sugar free gum, more crystal light water, diet coke/sprite o (some days. 3x a week)
6:00pm Rice and green beans, small salad with iceberg lettuce and cucumbers OR 1/2 plain non-fat yoghurt
before bed SOME nights, 1/2 cup of milk. or cup of PP tea.

If I wasn't in the 2ww, I'd feel really guilty about that... so, since I've done good the past few days of having low blood sugar in the mornings... I'm just going to not worry about eating a few spoons worth of pinto beans!
God, I wanted his dinner!!!
Just out of curiosity, why are you avoiding sugar? It's the easiest way to add calories without adding extra nutrients. I always had primarily sugar for my 3rd meal/snack in the evening - usually candy, sometimes ice cream if I had enough protein left in my budget. Full sugar soda is another great way to get extra calories.Quote:

Watch the nutrigrain bar intake they are vitamin fortified!Quote:
