The power of tracking. Was fixing an anxiety-fueled, go-for-it bowl of oatmeal, but added it up and didn't like the numbers. Cut the raisins and walnuts by 1/4 and added in a Tbsp of hemp seed so I had a little more protein & fewer calories

Looks great! I prefer craisins, but still looks amazing. Try fresh or frozen blueberries, their lower calorie and high in fiber.

I, too, make minor adjustments to maintain a certain CICO. I’m trying to tweak my fat intake some.
I’ve recently cut back on my blue cheese crumbles and my wasabi almonds. I replaced with rice and beans. Can still enjoy the taste of my favorites but cutting back some on the amount. Luckily, with blue cheese, it’s a strong flavor so, don’t need much of it.

Craisins are good, too, Tomboy!

Ken -- as they say, autocorrect is my worst enema 🤣🤣

StormsGirl -- it doesn't take a lot, but minor tweaks here and there make a huge difference 👍

Thanks, liv and Morticia 😊 Sadly...it was a decent start, but I blew it at the office 😫 I'm trying to hand off projects and have a big fear of leaving a mess for others to clean up. I was worrying about everything that could go wrong with my biggest project over the long weekend, so I was a walking ball of anxiety yesterday. Feeling better today. Also will be at home today, so fewer temptations and triggers

Indeed, Morticia! I'm planning on burning some leave time in January, so I'll be out of the office as much as I can
