1. Having cravings for "bad" food? I usually reach for the macadamia nuts or a couple of teaspoons of peanutbutter

2. Want a special treat that doesn't blow your EP? SF Cheesecake, any flavor!

3. Quick Meal? Either a salad or plain full-fat yogurt flavored with DaVinci's syrup.

4. Munchies for a movie/TV watching? Hmmm.....this is a tough one. I've never gotten in the habit of munching on something while watching TV. But if I needed something with crunch, I'd make a couple dozen cheese crisps or veggies with dip.

5. Ordering out/eating out? Usually a steak with veggies & salad. Outback Steakhouse is my favorite! Fast food would be the toppings of a pizza.

I'm eating Atkins - maintenance level.

1. There is no bad food in my book. But I do consider eggs benedict a once a year indulgence.

2. Special treat thet won't blow EP...chocolate anything.

3. Quick meal...subway. (Even my salads take 15 mins to prepare! )

4. Munchies for a movie/TV... usually popcorn cooked in oil. sprinkled with Emeril's Southwest essence and a touch of butter to help it stick.

5. Eating out...I usually eat whatever I want, but what I want is usually not too bad if taken in moderation. Unless I'm going to agreat steakhouse. I usually have a largely veggie meal. A salad entree, or veggies fajitas. At a fancy reataurant, I just pig out and pay later!

I'm just trying to eat sensibly. Watch portion size and get exercise.

1. Having cravings for "bad" food? I have a little bit and limit myself.

2. Want a special treat that doesn't blow your EP? angel food cake(sugar free) with fruit

3. Quick Meal? grilled peanut butter sandwich

4. Munchies for a movie/TV watching? lite popcorn is good or I have dry cereal DH loves this one too he doesn't like popcorn though.

5. Ordering out/eating out? salads first and then I try to order something healthier on the menu. But I have salad first to help fill up some before the entree comes. A glass of water before will help too

I follow a plain healthy eating/Dr Phil's Ulitmate weight soulution right now.

1. Cravings for "bad" foods? I like carb control ice-cream or sugar free chocolates - in small doses - a little goes a long way.

2. Special treat that doesn't blow EP? The same - what can I say, I love chocolate!

3. Quick meal? I like a homemade taco salad (only use 2tsp of taco seasoning in about 1/3 ground lean meat), lettuce, minimal tomato, some grated cheese, add 1/2 avocado and a dollap of fat free sour cream to the top and you can skip any dressing or salsa! Serves 2 without too many dishes!

4. Munchies for movie/TV watching? Sunflower seeds!

5. Ordering/eating out? I posted a thread on this because I've had trouble with eating out. Getting LOTS of ideas from the replies!

Thanks for being such a wonderul support group, WISH!
