Atomic clarified the milk stuff. I am dieting since may. I was using an app to monitor calorie intake and now I stopped. It was too much. I'm skipping breakfast and I'm doing sort of LE sort of pcos. Im not a sugar eater, but some times I have white flour or white rice, I try to keep it whole grain. I eat dairy so one meal a day i have at least with cheese or sour cream. I have milk with my coffee. I have posted lots of things that i eat before. I had a lot of baked goods over the weekend that I don't normally have but i am fairly certain i was still in the calorie range. I eat chicken about 1- 2 times a week, fish a tiny bit here and there. Red Meat i had on vacation and once over the weekend. I have a lot more grains than most people on here, I need it. I started eating sushi too. I eat vegetable sushi and it helps me feel better about my dieting. Cuz I buy it ready made. I also eat lots of veggie burgers and matzah, and I found some sodium free frozen soups as well. I don't really watch the sodium but in soup that gets out of hand. Check back and see things I posted. Good luck :) time passes fast and before you know it, the diet becomes a way of life. I'm no longer dropping pounds, but I'm also not crazy calorie counting. Oh and I love the peanut butter chocolate chip larabar. I know we are supposed to avoid chocolate but I love it and it saves me from being low on everything most days.Quote:

I was thinking about using an app, if only for a small amount of time, to track calories & whatnot. Which did you use?
Yeah I read some of the replies in here but I think I'll go back & read even more for ideas & whatnot :)
I use my fitbit app to count what I'm eating but I hear my fitness pal is good too!

I thought milk chocolate was ok to eat, as long as it’s within the limits? I love my chocolate[emoji30]
Also, speaking of candy. At the end of the day, most days I have met my fat and protein limits, but am way under for calorie intake. I read somewhere that candy is a great way to increase calories, but to choose candy that doesn’t have fat or protein in it. Any suggestions on which candies have calories but not fat?

Milk chocolate within limits is fine for most people but people on the alternate diets (for PCOS, egg quality, insulin resistance, those with more than 30 lbs to lose) have to limit sugar or even cut it out totally so sometimes you'll read about someone not eating a certain food but it's becasue they're on a different version of LE Diet. Some others are trying to blend old school sway diets with the LE Diet and they'll refer to certain foods as "forbidden".
but here it is, right from the horses mouth: "All foods are allowed on the standard LE Diet as long as you stay in limits." LE Diet is MY diet, I invented it, and that is how it works! :)
With candy, you can have candy with protein and fat in it if you can have it in the overall limits for the day.
If you NEED a way to add a bunch of calories without fat or protein, and want to have some candy, then you can have a pure sugar candy (provided you're not on the alternate type of diet where you can't have any sugar) such as gummy worms, hard candy, marshmallows, even things like cotton candy or Pixy Sticks.
Thank you!! I tend to eat 3 musketeers or junior mints every night just to increase my calories, since I always seem to be within the range for fat and protein but low on calories.
I will try to switch it to gummy worms or marshmallows. Are there other food items besides candy that I could eat that are lower in sugar (and protein and fat), but have lots of calories?
