Confessions of a Snacker...



Recommended Posts

I have an addiction that I need help with. Lately I have been cheating with chips and salsa. There are times I would rather eat chips and salsa than a meal. :D I have to be more strong.

So what do you need, Carrie? A boot to the butt or a big ol' hug?? Either are available as needed, here.

:]

Can you replace with some other cruncy thing like celery or other veggies and a mix of FF cream cheese and salsa? It isn't the salsa that is killing you, you know...

Just a thought.

Oh, I love chips & salsa!! We went to dinner the other night & I ate so much chips & salsa that I was completely stuffed before my real food ever came. I just make sure I don't keep the stuff around the house or I'd have a VERY BIG problem!! It goes down toooo easily!!!

My suggestion: Get rid of the chips - FAST!! That will fix your problem. :D

Run....Run far far away.

throw it out, don't buy more....grin and bear it for 2 weeks...and you'll be ok.

Join our "Chip Club" (check archives for "Who wants some chips"). You get a fancy little icon for your signature line. I just earned one for 30 days with no caffeine. Next...I'm getting away from sugar treats. You can do it, too!

Remember...this thing will only work if you work it. I learned that this week...so back on track for me this coming week!

God Bless You. Hang in there.

I would suggest having the baked chips with the salsa. Portion Control it out. For the baked (tostitoes) its 22 chips = 1 portion. As far as the salsa, you can't go wrong, enjoy as much as you can. Add some broiled ckn or something to that effect and you have dinner :D

Some times I don't want dinner either and I'll snack on this. If you must have sour cream do the fat free and measure measure measure.

We can eat our favorite foods we just have to be more aware of the alternatives.

I feel the same way sometimes. I don't really enjoy a real meal anymore because I have to eat so slow and it often doesn't feel that good. But chips go down so well!!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
