Soy chips? Do they taste like regular ones?

What do you think??? LOL!!

Soy chips.... hmmm... how can I explain it... Well they sort of have the consistency of a mini rice cake, but not as hard. The bag I have is Sweet BBQ. Not too bad.... has an after taste of a regular chip I guess.... They are not bad...

Hi ladies! Thought I'd post in my log, I've been neglecting it, poor thing

Anyway, here's something I'm proud of! My house ran out of the 94% fat free micro popcorn & all we had left was regular. It is 3pts per 3 cups. I am totally used to eating the entire bag for 2pts. I was almost going to do it and then BAM! I measured out the three cups and gave the rest away! I ate each popped corn one by one - too keep me from finishing too quick! I was proud of myself last night, thought I'd share!

Re: OctBride03's Log

Thanks!!! I brushed my teeth afterwards in order to avoid having more! I guess I'm happy, but boy was the regular popcorn yummy!

Re: OctBride03's Log

My FH doesn't like popcorn, so I have gotten into a habbit of not getting it at the movies, b/c I can never eat the whole bag...

Re: OctBride03's Log

Today so far:

Breakfast shake - 3pts.
Salad for lunch w/ artichoke hearts, chick peas, & olives, broccoli & balsamic vinegar - 5pts. (I think I went too high, but better than too low)

So 8pts for today! Woohoo!!! I wanted to get an orange, but the cafeteria here just has fruit salad, BLAH!

Re: OctBride03's Log

I think I have hit my pts for today!!!

huge breakfast, then snacks, so by lunchtime I had 9 points.

Then i had curry beef noodle soup, which now makes me feel fat, and one of those 2 pt bars that I dont like (i wanted something sweet)...

I have no idea how much soup was, I am assuming 10 pts at least, its chinese cuisine, definietly not good.

Re: OctBride03's Log

Guess what ladies! I SAVED 8pts from yesterday for today!!! WOOHOOO!!!

Probably not the best thing to do! I am soooooooooo hungry!

Re: OctBride03's Log

Oooo Awesome!!! if you're hungry, have a tablespoon of peanut butter, it should stop the hunger till lunchtime.

OctBride03 Posted: Jan 17, 2003 09:58 AM

Re: OctBride03's Log

hmmmmmmm..... is that a little trick? I should try that once! Unfortunately I'm at work, no peanut butter here

Thanks Alina for the little tip!

Re: OctBride03's Log

can you eat a few peanuts? Yes its a tiny trick..
A tablespoon is only 2 pts, but fat blocks you hunger receptors and basically, since peanut butter is high in fat/serving, it does the trick... I am suggesting peanut butter, b/c its the only small fatty thing that I could think of that's relatively healthy. Avocado may work too, but I haven't tried it.
