Someone I knew who had her dogs on the Volhard Natural Diet used to cook the grains overnight in a thermos, as this diet calls for a grain meal in the morning and a meat meal at night. I think she said that she measured in the oats (or whatever) and boiling water, then just capped it and it was read...

Mel! You seem to be turning into a double of my little dog... Polyjuice potion, maybe?? :wink: I tried your recipe with regular oatmeal this morning, 1/4 cup as Bright Angel recommended. It came out a little weird, but tasted fine and did hold me for a long time. I used 1/4 c oatmeal 2 Tbs. Healthy ...

How's your mercury level? :wink: Hope no one mindes that this is tuna and beans together, but it's just as handy and very summer-y: Tuscan Tuna Salad, 4 servings Woman's World, 8/21/07 Toss together 1 12-oz can tuna in water, drained and flaked 1 15/5-oz can great norther beans, rinsed 2 tomatoes, c...

This is what I ate last week, copied from my reply to a "what's for dinner" thread on another board. I ended up adding a can of fire roasted diced tomatoes the next day, because it seemed like a good idea. For this tomato lover, it made it even yummier. -------------------------------------------- I...

Thanks for the encouragement, Sheiler, it is appreciated! I might be poking fun because it seems like my habitcal is going backwards, but no s is the first diet that makes the keep on keepin' on even possible for me. I don't try most of them because I can't make it a day. It's all a mental thing, bu...

Real good, then
I have 5 red days on my April Habitcal --- and 5 GREEN days in May. :roll: Today was a red (Mondays are a day off for me, and have been dreadful, all but one), purely due to lunch-on-the-road panic. Glad that other people have shared their experience with multiple false starts, or that they just tot...

Because "drinking is not snacking," I use drinks as a security blanket. That way I'm not so worried at a meal if it will take me through to the next one. Tea or coffee, if I'm having a craving or habit pangs -- a common thing at "second breakfast" time mid morning; milk or veggie juice to tide me ov...

Re: No sugar clarification
(Is there a number to watch for on labels or do I just stay away from candie, cookies and cakes??) Yup, candy, cookies, cakes -- anything that would be a dessert or sweet snack. The grownup cereals you mentioned would be fine eaten as they traditionally are, with a spoonful of sugar or two. Ex-DH u...

You're manipulating them, but not counting. The difference is, you'll never have to sit at the end of the day trying to guess the calorie count of a meal you were served, or write to a diet message board, "Help, I want to eat lunch, and can't find the calories/points/exchanges (ok, especially points...

Laff, that's what I did on my first N day too! Except it was a lollipop; the restaurant has a basket of small hard candies -- star mints, lollipops -- at the cash register, and I just grabbed one without a single thought in my head. But hey, if the power of habit can work against us that strongly, i...

The magic of Habitcal
From Karen Pryor's Don't Shoot the Dog , written about 20 years ago... "One finding shows, for example, that if you make a chart to keep track of your progress in some self-training program, you will be more likely to maintain new habits if you solidly fill in a little square every day on the chart,...

The first time I tried Fage yogurt, I ate two of them! Plain. Great stuff, fantastic texture. This morning, I had plain yogurt from Aldi's (which ISN'T $1.99 a serving!), with all-fruit jam mixed in, and a 2-oz bagel with light cream cheese. Black coffee, as usual. A little spartan for an s-day mayb...
