Need a snack?

Thanks for sharing some of the snack ideas. I am snacking on the special k challenge, cause you have to. I LOVE their protein water. It totally fills me up when its like 3pm and i need something to make it to dinner. You can buy the stuff you mix in with bottled water or you can buy the bottles already mixed. The mix i have has 30 cal. per serving and the bottles have 50. and they DONT have aspirtame in them (i thought they did)...which is good. But they seriously help curb hunger until its meal time. It is a little expensive, but i think its worth the money, so i stock up. But they have protein and fiber in them. I also love the special k snack bars, cause they do the same filling with only 90 calories.

I also appreciate what carole said about slim fast. Guys....its pretty cheap...its good for you (as long as you drink lots of water)....AND it fills you up. I had an old boss at target who lost 60lbs on the slimfast diet. And they changed it. Its not just sub 2 shakes for 2 meals anymore, you get to eat more now on it (thats also true for the special k challenge, they allow more food so its healthier). As long as you stick to it and dont overeat.

Im doing good so far in the 3 days that ive been on the special k challenge. I havent cheated yet eventhough ive felt like going to mcdonalds and getting a big mac! I have found that i am hungry sometimes when i cant eat yet, but i know its because im used to eating sooooooo much at every meal. Im really determined to do this now. Im going to start making time to exersize. Ill put another update up when im done with my first week. :) Good job everyone!

  1. I think I am going to try that protein water. Where do you get it? By the bottled water?
