And... I have been tracking every little thing I eat. It is awesome to see where I am by the end of the day. I'm eating healthy - really watching calories and fat. And drinking at least 8 glasses of water every day. My main focus is on lots of fruits and veggies, plus protein. But I've ALWAYS been a snacker, so here are a couple of things I have found helpful so far in this healthy eating changeover...
I get munchy hungry later in the evening - I've solved this with a 100 calorie bag of popcorn.
I've also found that snacking on baby food helps curb my appetite AND gives me extra fruit and veggie servings. I buy the pouch variety, so I just open it up and squeeze it all into my mouth, just like a gogurt. I got this baby food snacking tip from Reece Witherspoon, and duh she looks amazing.
If I get a chocolate craving, I love the 100 calorie pack of fudge-shoppe cookies. Just the perfect amount of sweet and crunch. LOVE.
I love flavored coffee. The instant variety has only 60 calories per cup. It's like heaven in a mug.
I also have found I really enjoy chai tea. The bag itself only has 10 calories, but I can't drink it plain. I add low fat non-dairy creamer (hazelnut flavor). Again... bliss, especially when it was a snowstorm outside the other night.
And of course keeping track of it all on myfitnesspal.com is amazing.
