Joan, if you microwave the burgers just right they're very moist and easy to digest I always microwave them in the open package for 45 seconds.. take it out, put a piece of low fat cheese and pop it back in for another 15 seconds. These are so easy and quick with 14 grams of protein too + protein in the cheese. I eat these often for lunch at work. So far today, I've had my usual AchievOne protein drink. I can never plan what I'm going to eat because I always change my mind. I'll post later though Have a great day. Good luck with the Boca! April

Well, Girlfriend...I tried and Ethel rebelled. I ate 1/2 of the Boca and I was sooo full thought I would but didn't. I also ate some of the spinach...not full cup for sure. I just finished one protein drink. BTW I did add cheese to Boca also which I didn't count in my plan. I have about three more bites to finish the Boca which I have been trying to little by little for about 3hrs. Yuck....I truly hate food. I only eat because I have to...there are so little in the food category that I enjoy now. Maybe the chicken wings will agree.... Hope your day is better. In Him, Joan M

I so don't eat because I have to, I did at first now I eat because it tastes good and I want it!!!! Todays lunch was at a meeting, they had bagel sandwiches, so i ate the guts of 1/2 chicken/cashew salad, and 1/2 turkey meat with cream cheese and cranberry jelly. Took a few bites of the bagel but knew not to eat much. I did eat baked sour cream and onion chips and none of it is sitting very good at this time. I wish I could go without eating, but it seems like I just have to have it, granted not as much as I would have eaten a year ago but it is like I am now eating because I feel I have to? If that makes any sense to anyone, it sure doesn't to me!

aww well i'm sorry to hear that about the boca burgers. I know I enjoy them... though my stomach has never been picky at all! I wish I hated food... I did in the beginning but that slowly changed as time passed. Oh well... it is a never ending struggle! April

I had for: B: 3/4 c South Beach Diet whole grain cereal w/ 1/2c of 1% milk snack; sf popsickles Lunch: 1 slice of ww bread with 2 tBsp of Peanut Butter Dinner: 1 sm can of white tuna I think I will name my pouch: Rosie It wants to eat all the time, lol I have done 15 minutes on the exercise bike this morning, and will try to do 15 more before bedtime. I have my support meeting today, so hopefully that will be feasible. Hope everyone had a good day. Kathleen

OK I want to try the bread w/peanut butter that sounds good..but I amsooo afraid of the cals and fat in PB..what kind do you use? What is the amount of carbs you are allowed...do they give you a set amount for the day or is it percentage? Inquiring minds want to know.... In Him, Joan M

I was up at 2am-3am with a screaming toddler that didn't goto bed until 10.. I hate the terrible 2's so I got NO sleep. I had to eb up for work at 4am.. So I needed some help this morning in the form of liquid gold: -tall sugar free nonfat cinnamon dolce latte 90/0/14/9 -cottage double for breakie at 8 am 140/2.5/14/11 (I think) -lunch was bad leftover's 1/3 of my steak from my fajita's and a South western eggroll.. bad babycraving.. no idea.. probably more then I want to admit. I should of gone for chicken. I know from weigh****chers that it's only 320 cals for the WHOLE platter and like 50 grams of protien and I know steak is much higher.. blah for wanting beef. -snack handful of soy crisps.. (olive oil garlic feta) no idea dinner will be pork 20 grams and a veggie Snack: probably nothing but sleep I count my latte as my 'indulgence' of the day

Thanks to everyone responding...if I don't answer personally it is because I am sooo busy with homeschooling, grading the work and planning next week's schedule. And doing the normal Mom, wife, Sunday School Teach, Bible Study Teacher, and my Crossing Guard job...yikes I better get off of here. In Him Who gives strength, and grace to do all of the above, Joan M
