    Did you stick to your points? It helps to use them eating healthy food...for awhile around Halloween I was trying to use them on candy

    I pretty much only had the 21 points. I would use my AP if I went on a long ride or run. I know I should increase my veggie intake. I am just not a fan of cooked veggies. I will eat raw ones though. What kind of things do you all eat for lunch? That may be my downfall as I usually eat PBJ for the convience and cost.

    I keep high fiber bread in the fridge and make sure there is tuna or sliced turkey .... apples. yogurt.
    washed lettuce, a head of red cabbage, and carrots!

    BUT I am notroriously bad about skipping lunch when I'm in the studio, so I make sure there is yogurt and fruit.

    And honestly, I've lost about 10lbs and still eat those skinny cow ice creams every night! My sense is that if you stick to the points you'll lose. BUt I may be wrong...

    This month's Bicycling is the "Lean" issue and I read that if you skip meals and eat the bulk of your food after 4pm (elk raises her hand) you're probably over weight.

    Never skip a meal they advise.... I'll try.

    Thanks, I will try again. I have been eating the high fiber breads with the PB. Maybe I will try to cut out the PB and try turkey like you suggested. I too eat the bulk of my calories after 4pm. I am tend to snack more at home then at work. I will just have to keep my hands busy. DH snacks big time all the time so snack foods such as chips and cookies are always in the house. I don't necessarily like them, maybe I will snack on cold veggies or fruit while he is eating the chips. He is a skiiny guy, 5'10" 140# not fair.. Hoep everyone is doing well

    I wish he loved beer and fried foods. Those I don't like so I wouldn't eat them at all. But Nooooooo he has to like the same things I do. Bummer. Have a great day
