I didn't want to let my husband down, the ball was really his night, so I made sure to stay away from super bad stuff.

Originally Posted By Tinkeroon I have tried and tried to get used to black coffee. Just not happenin'! I can drink it black w/sweetener(stevia) but it's just not the same.

No soups, lunch meats, soy sauce, catsup, teriyaki sauce, soda, canned vegetables, etc... (big heavy sigh) I LOVE salt!

Originally Posted By officerminnie I will be in DL two weeks from today and I am not going to deny myself a Dole Whip! Or two or three. But I figure, with all the walking we'll do, I'll work off those calories in no time!
Originally Posted By KittyPrincess1206 ^^^Ha, that's pretty much what I told myself, lol! I had 2 Dole Whip Floats in a three day period. You should be ok officerminnie, just keep walking

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight mele, your the BOMB baby! That's only 2-4 Points per Dole whip for those on WW! That is awsome and WAY well worth it! And you can walk off at least 2 Points with 15 minutes of walking. Woohooo! thank you so much mele! :-D

Originally Posted By Lady Starlight I'd do a carwheel for you mele, but I'm afraid I'd knock myself out. LOL I'm going to hit the Treehouse of death this week and by the time the Big Meet rolls around, I'll be ready to enjoy a Dolewhip. Mele, just for posting this fabulous tidbit of info on the mighty Dolewhip, I'd like to buy you one when I see you. :-D
Originally Posted By mele I will accept! But only so I can finally meet you. (I won't be at the Big Meet, tho. We'll be there Dec. 11-16.) And I can't do cartwheels either. The thought is...painful.

Originally Posted By smedley That's good news on the dole whip floats for you guys For the people struggling with the black coffee, have you tried the flavoured coffees, where the flavour is in the beans? Not the same as adding creamers I am sure, but there are no added calories or sugar, and they just add that nice bit of taste Tinkeroon, can you have tamari sauce? I would definitely check, it's a japanese type of soy, but it doesn't have the salt, but does have all the flavour. Also in terms of soups, I make my own and use Kallo low salt stock cubes, maybe this could be an option for you? Again check with the doctor first Still going strong here, going to weigh myself tomorrow..
Originally Posted By officerminnie Mele, a million THANKS for that Dole Whip info! I do believe I will have one every day, now that I know they don't contain a bazillion calories . And this is DGD's first trip so I get to indoctrinate her into the World of Dole Whips.

Originally Posted By amazedncal2 Wow, a lot of posts since I last checked in Tinkeroon, we are rooting for you Please keep us informed about all the wonderful new cooking methods you come up with as salt is something we all should probably be watching out for. It's been discussed with my MD and the soups and lunch meats were high on her list of no no's for me and restaurant salad dressings of all things. kittyprincess, I'm so glad that your Ball was a success and that you fit in to your dress!!! So many posts I feel like I want to address everyone about their awesome success's but I'd be here all day I went to the nutritionist yesterday and she said I am her star patient My bloodwork was awesome and she thinks I can successfully be taken off some of my meds but I need to push it at the MD appointment next week. She still wants another 5-10 lbs loss (of course I want more) but said over the next 6 months is her thought. She reminded me that this is not a diet but a way of life and I need to accept that and I believe I have. We're all in here together!! Have a great day <<admits that while I "like" a dole whip, I don't "love" a dole whip. I think it has to do with my lack of a sense of smell, I don't get the fruity back taste My daughters LOVE them though.
