annefood Very cool!
Any tips for full or half pass check-ins? I had a salad with the only sugar I could find was in the dressing (listed eighth).
-
DietID_TeamDietitians If you have just a little added sugar, such as that found in salad dressing, that would qualify as half a pass for sure. A great no added sugar salad dressing is this shallot dijon dressing by...

ingalls Thank you!
What did everyone have for dinner tonight?! I made salmon, green beans and cous cous. Feeling very healthy :)
-
Cgsmile I made chicken breasts lightly seasoned on grill, salad , corn and fresh mango and pineapple.
-
eemawolf I had squash with chicken and broclli

AlexB I made mahi mahi with veggies and had watermelon for dessert. The watermelon saved me. 😀
I’m a big morning coffee drinker. I use 2 tsp of International Delight coffee creamer and a tbsp of whipped cream. Do I have to ditch this?
-
cgsegelette Ouch! That’s going to be hard but yep😃

cgsegelette Check out bullet coffee on line or maybe vanilla almond milk?
Can I do more than one challenge at a time?
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Hi @Ellen89 - you can only do one challenge at a time. We designed it this way because studies show you'll be more successful at building a good habit if you focus on one thing, vs. trying to...

-
DietID_TeamDietitians I would suggest skipping it because one of its main ingredients is Maltitol, a sugar alcohol or sweetener. Though it is not as sweet as sugar, it’s still an artificial sweetener, which you should...
-
AlexB Okay cool! Thank you. I just usually have one square of super dark chocolate.
-
annefood It's best to just skip it. Sugar alternatives tend to cause gastrointestinal issues when eaten in excess. I eat 100% cacao chips with dried fruit for a little dessert sometimes. No added sugar or...
Having a tough time this weekend. I used two passes. 😬
-
cgsegelette Maybe make yourself an acceptable treat, that tastes great! Fruit smoothie .. pb on frozen banana... good luck 👍 you’ve been doing great
-
annefood I did that last weekend too- ice cream. But I got back on track. Dried fruit was helpful. You can too! Great advice @cgsegelette. You’ve got this @shmoozii !
-
ingalls I have to admit, I’ll most likely use up my passes, too, so have been anticipating which will be my weak days in advance. Like tomorrow... we’re making a fancy dinner for my mother-in-law’s 70th...
