Calorie countdown - What did you eat on Thursday?

So far I have had half a vitamuffin.  I will remedy this pathetic lack of food as soon as the oven is done cooking my lunch.  I am STARVING!  Happy Thursday everyone :)

I try never to go so long without eating (usually something small every couple hours works best for me), but today was just one of those days where I lost track of time with work and class and a meeting.  I didn't think about food or realize I hadn't eaten until hunger hit me hard at the grocery store.  What are chick o sticks?

I carry Kay's Naturals with me everywhere (car, desk drawer, suitcase) in case of those I forget to eat/lost track of time moments. Chick-o-sticks are yummy peanut butter/coconut candy's I used to eat all the time as a kid! Eggface (Shelly) found them sugar free, made with Splenda 3 = 50 calories. I only have them around for when I need a sweet fix, which doesn't happen often.

Those sound interesting - peanut butter and coconut wouldn't seem to high on my list of pairings I usually keep a snack on hand too, a protein bar generally, but I was out of those and everything else until I went to the grocery store this afternoon.  The bad thing about grocery shopping when you are hungry is that EVERYTHING looks soo good.  I was well-behaved though.  I stuck to my list completely :) I've never tried Kay's naturals, but I've seen you and several other people recommend them.  I did order those margarita mixes you mentioned.  I haven't tried them yet but I thought they'd be good to have around.  All the best, Jenn

Chick-O-Sticks are (were) my favorite, where do you get them sugar free?

https://www.atkinsoncandy.com/store/ Nice thing if you buy from them (the manufacturer) - it's free shipping. You do have to buy 6 bags of each product, but after mine came yesterday I made the rounds, My Mom got some, my brother, my Father-in-law, all the diabetics in the family, and they all loved them! The SF peanut butter bars are wonderful too, I remember my Grandma always had a dish of the regular ones in her house when I was little.

Not to bad today.  Trying to get in more fruits. B- Protein coffee and bacon and banana L- banana and hazelnut mocha latte S- english toffee latte and apple with peanut butter (yummy) D- chicken and a little pasta salad hope all is doing good today.  It is cold and windy here in NC monica

Same here, trying to get more fruits and veggies.  I'm generally good with veggies, but I don't eat much fruit - I seem to dump on fruit sugar, especially apples, faster and worse than on any other sweet item.  So now if I have some fruit I usually linger over it for quite a while.
