Anyone Ever Try Graze.Com?

Portion control bags never stopped me. It never hurt my feelings to open one two or three or more bags,if that was what I wanted.

They also have small portion controlled bags of Oreos, Goldfish crackers, Cheez Its, and chocolate chip cookies.  Just because they are portion controlled doesn't make them a good choice.

I already replied with my own experience, but I will add that you will probably be surprised at how few of the high sugar fruit or crunchy carb croutons/whatever will cause you to crave MORE sugar/carbs. This is my 8 years of post-op experience speaking, and almost every single vet (over 5 years out) will tell you the same.  You are still very early in maintenance.  The longer you can avoid these kinds of non-protein snacks, the better off you will be down the road.

Just make sure of what you are doing as habit forming.  Not sure how far you are out of surgery?  I lost 21lbs more than I was suppose to but after 5 years post surgery.  I was trying to maintain or not lose anymore.  Got in the habit of snacking and now I have gained 40lbs of the 143 pounds I lost 7 years ago.

I'm almost a year out.  And I'm quite positive it's going to get harder with each passing year.  I wish I could wave a magic wand and stay right where I am.  But duh... if I had a magic wand I would've never gained the weight in the first place!

Thanks for your input.  I'm gonna take this slowly and carefully.  

I have friends that use these and I ordered a box for myself that should be arriving before too long.  I think if they fit within your numbers/goals for nutrition it shouldn't be an issue.  It's a nice way to get a variety of snacks that fit whatever plan you are following.  I know they have some low carb/low cal options.  So far so good.

Thanks!  This is exactly what I'm hoping and planning on.  It may work... and may be a healthy way for maintenance.  If not - it's outa here!  

I had a subscription when they first started. I liked the idea of a portion control sized snack. It worked at the time because there were no other snacks in the house. It also worked because my son would get to them too!

I liked the variety. Enjoy and if it doesn't work you can always cancel. 

Looks like a lot of carb heavy snacks to me.  I'd probably eat them all in one shot, but that's just me.

I thought they were a bit too carby/sugary. Some of the packs are all fruit, and some are oat crackers.

Yeah, I noticed that, too... so when I went through each item one at a time, I "trashed" all those options so they won't be sent to me.  Especially the dried fruit ones.  I should only be receiving the higher protein, lower sugar and carb items.
