Lots of 100 calorie stuff, lol
Don't get me wrong, when I'm bad, I'm really bad. But when I'm trying to be good, i really stick with it.
Today, I've only eaten 300 calories so far. I have a 10 calorie jello for snack later and then DH is making a surprise dinner, so i have no idea how healthy it is going to be.
But the yoplait light yogurts are great. The kashi breakfast bars are delish, the jello and jello pudding snacks are a great, low cal treat... I like to pick all day, so the 100 cal snacks allow me to do that.

No but i always estimate or look at the serving size to get an idea. You can never be totally correct on how many i dont think.

WW taught me how to count. Once i became comfy with the lifestyle, i stopped counting points and started counting calories.
i don't deprive myself, either. If i want micky d's one day, i have it. but i'm sure to have a salad for dinner and a very light calorie day the next day.

Re: Calorie counters....
I don't know how many calories I consume in one day but I count calories differently.
I run atleast 5 miles a day and if i find a snack I want If the calories in one serving are more than twenty minutes on the treadmill I dont eat it. I guess I look at it as not worthworking off and having to work harder for.

Re: Calorie counters....
Before I was prego....I average about 1000 cal a day. A bowl of cereal or two in the morning with a glass of OJ...really holds you over. I worked at a restaurant and always had a salad BEFORE lunch with balsamic ( no calories ) then eat HALF of whatever I wanted. Dinner would be a lean meat/plain starch and mostly vegies on a small plate. Eating off of a small plate instead of a large one helps.
I keep no snacks besides popcorn and fruit dark chocolate a plus for us. Having a cup of tea is warming and curbs appetites!

Re: Calorie counters....
How can you manage on so few calories? If I don't eat nice generous meals throughout the day I can't make it.

Re: Calorie counters....
I have a calorie counter on my iPhone called Lose It and I keep track of everything I eat. I normally eat between 1500-2000 calories a day.

Re: Calorie counters....
I am not knocking it at all so please don't take it the wrong way but isn't a 1,000 really a low amount of calories to take in a day especially if you are working out or are active?
