Ice water cuts my hunger pangs. Filling up on it helps head of cravings.

There is a chocolate that I could not find the calorie count on but it was awful smal so i find it hard to believe it has more than 50 calories.

again cut for those not interested

From one fat-ass to another, drop the yogurt.
As odd as it sounds, the times I have decided to drop weight I just eat every other day. It sounds "Crazy!" but it works.

That's probably good advice. Eat an egg instead. Things that advertise themselves as low-fat are usually higher sugar content than their regular fat equivalents.

Eggs are good, but it's good idea to get enough calcium in your diet if you want to lose weight (and for general good health). There are some organic yogurt brands that are pretty tasty, and they don't have high fructose corn syrup like Yoplait does.

A calcium and/or fiber supplement might be worth considering, too. I have one with both calcium and fiber, if i could just remember to take it... :)

Yeah I will look this weekend for a better brand of yogurt. I picked up yoplait cause it was cheap.

I am taking vitamin suppliments.

Yay vitamins! :) They don't have much calcium in them, though, so it's good that you're getting it from other sources.

I have to admit that Yoplait is my favorite brand, taste-wise. I just wish they didn't put the bad corn syrup in there. I tend to alternate between the not-as-healthy Yoplait and the organic brands, which are probably more expensive - but they have inulin, a fiber that's supposed to help you absorb calcium. There's also a regular brand that has a line of natural yogurts - I think it's Dannon, but not sure.

And as for the eggs, you could always boil them a dozen at a time, then you wouldn't have to worry about cooking them in the morning. If you like them boiled (I recommend pepper). :)

an egg would be good but most mornings I dont have time to cook and I eat breakfast at work. What I will do is see if I can find a better brand of yogurt though.

interestingly I got to go with the yogurt on this one. One it gets my dose of sweet out which if I did not have some sweet I would crave it something awful also yogurt is amazingly healthy for you. Yes most store bought has more sugar bu the rest of the effects are pretty positive.

first it is high in calcium which helps so many thing. It also is a pretty good source of protein. The bacteria it has in it also helps your intestinal tract health. The lactic acid in it aids in digestion of calcium as well(according to a couple of sources).
