  6. yea but you will burn that up right its better than all that fake stuff in your body
  7. fiddleman think again about Quest look at the ingrediants brother power crunch has 205 cal and 12 grams of fat
  8. is funny i was reading the ingrediants for Quest bars and they claim to be healthy, but are loaded with lots of artifical sugars. erythintol is a sugar alchol, surclose is super sweet, stevia, lo han gue sweeter from china. it list not having sugar alchol but the ingrediants say diffearant. i compare ingrediants to other products all the time i never take the word of the product must see ingrediants. now the luna bar has brown rice syrup which is natrual i believe but the protien grams are lower than quest, so i looked at power crunch bars considered high protien low carb but also has artifical sweetner and flour?????? baking soda and palm kernal oil hummmmmmmmmmm. that explains why when i eat them i crave sugar and carbs all day. cliff bar seems to be the most natrual and is for working out. here are the list of ingrediants Ingredients: Organic Brown Rice Syrup, ClifPro® (Soy Rice Crisps [soy Protein Isolate, Rice Flour, Rice Starch, Barley Malt Extract], Organic Roasted Soybeans, Organic Soy Flour), Organic Rolled Oats, Organic Toasted Oats (Organic Oats, Organic Dried Cane Syrup, Ascorbic Acid, Natural Vitamin E [Antioxidant]), Dried Apricots (Apricots, Dried Cane Syrup, Rice Flour, Citric Acid, Ascorbic Acid), ClifCrunch® (Organic Oat Fiber, Inulin [Chicory Extract], Organic Milled Flaxseed, Organic Oat Bran, Psyllium), Organic Cane Syrup, Dried Apricots, Organic Date Paste, Organic Sunflower Oil, Natural Flavors, Lemon juice Concentrate, Citric Acid, Sea Salt, Colored with Annatto.o. help me find the fake stuff
  9. power crunch wafers 14grams protien 5 gram sugar made with whey
  10. laura that is correct i agree with you. each dr are so differant. frye you are so crazy beauty exactly
  11. Not good at math, what is my percent
  12. Web its ok we are all here for help. And we all have opionons
  13. Laura im not disagreeing with the study im just saying I dont agree with eating before bed, dont eat a heavy dinner than go to bed, u have a light snack 2hrs before bed. Thats something I read, I am no nut or dr, just my 2 cents thats all.
  14. you dont wake up to eat, thats crazy. the general rule is to not eat 2hrs before bed. you can eat your 3 meals and 2 Snacks through out the day but not 2 hrs before bed. bed time is sleep time. thats funny. what if your day dont start till 1030 and your last meal for the day is your evening snack, if you are going to be up an additional 2hrs you eat. i have researched this and researched it. i even did a plan that requires you to eat 6 small meals a day lost 125lbs in 9 months. but that works. but like the op said not for everyone.
  15. here is my count for today. breakfast 2 chicken breakfast links, 1 scrambled egg, 1/2 english muffin(yep got it all in) snack luna bar (eat early in the day for this one 23grams of carbs) lunch 1/2 breaded chicken sandwich, made of 1/2 wheat bun, trader joes breaded chicken breast 1/2 slice light cheese lettuce tomatoe snack trader joes 5 layer bean dip 1/2 cup, trader joes no salt white corn tortilla chips 14 dinner chicken stir fry made with 2 oz grilled chicken, asparagas mushrooms onions. snack tuna salad 2 oz, 1/4 cup apple slices calories 1291 carbs 107 protien 86 fat 46

  17. grazing is like eating your meal and a few min later you are picking at something else. 2-3hrs goes like this for example i ate at 915am i will eat again at 1115am if i feel hungry, if not i go to the 3rd hour and so on
  18. But the way the body works is think of a camp fire, the fire is burning( metabolism) you keep adding pieces of wood to keep it going(food) but you de id to put a bigger log because u r tired of feeding the fire. If u notice the log takes a long time to burn out( large meal). Do u see where im going with this. The small meal burn up quicly. Another way to explaine it, our bodies are made to go into survival mode if its not being fed it gets scared and holds the food for dear life (starving) but when you feed it every 2_3 hours it think ok I can burn this up because im getting more(weight loss)
  19. Yea so starting today . And im taking my protein back to under 75 no more 80 to 100
  20. so i use fitclick to log my food so i went back to december because it seems to be when i was losing 2-3lbs a week to see what i was eating and its seems my carbs averaged out to be higher than my protien intake. so instead of taking in 80+ on protien i will reduce it back to 60-75grams aday and my carbs at about 100grams. i am going to try for a whole week to see what happens. i have tried everything else so lets try this. plus i added working out but the scale and inches are not moving . i will let you guys know what happens
