Re: Tips and Tricks for the New Year

don't let yourself get too hungry.
exercise as much as you are able.
if you need a sweet snack Tootsie Roll Pops and candy canes are each only 1 pt.
popcorn is really filling. If you don't want to use oil or the microwave kind you can put some popcorn kernels in a brown paper lunch bag, fold the top over a couple times and put in the microwave. Pops great and no fat. I spray mine with PAM and then sprinkle salt and a little Splenda over it for a kettle corn taste.

Re: Tips and Tricks for the New Year

I agree with pat dont let yourself get hungry. Me personally I binge if I do that.

I like to eat at the same time everyday. That way my body gets into a routine. Dinner at night depends on a few factors but it is never past 6. I also try to reserve 2 points for after supper because it is my worst craving time.

I also drink a ton of water. Like 125 oz a day. Really curbs the cravings and munching before meals.

There is a bagel out there called the alternative bagel. Hyvee stores in iowa carry them . They are one point. They come in blue berry, poppyseed, original, wheat, onion, one other one but I cant think of it right now. that is probley my best find latley. That helps me with my carbs cravings.

Hope some of this helps
