So I officially started a diet. Spring weather has already hit here in New Hampshire and I have no clothes that fit other then my black yoga pants. Plus with my belly still being swollen from surgery I am at even more of a loss for clothes that fit. So a diet I will start!
For breakfast I like to have cereal with fruit. But let’s face it measuring out your cereal is no fun, plus looking at that 3/4 of a cup of cereal in a big bowl makes me want to quit my diet already. So this morning I decided to put my cereal in a canning jar. As most of you know the sides of a canning jar have measurements on them, so no need for dirtying your measuring cups. But the best part is by putting my cereal in a canning jar it looks like I’m eating a lot…I like that!
So hopefully these little canning jars will help me loose some weight. Any other great tips for me?
Hey, I like that idea! I'm going to try it. Thanks and Good Luck!
Use a smaller dinner plate. Same effect… looks like more than it is and less room to pile stuff on. Use a salad plate instead. Also make sure you're eating 5-6 small meals/snacks a day. All of them should be atleast 50% fruits or vegetables. For a snack pair yogurt and an apple or banana. Etc. It has helped me a lot! Down 10lbs already 🙂 It has only been 3 weeks!
Smaller plates/bowls for sure 🙂 I had to lose 10-15lbs a couple years ago and had little to no success until I used fitday.com (the free version). Food tracking with graphs, weight loss tracking, activity tracking too. It takes a little bit of time but not too much and I was successful quickly after starting to use that.
I do the same thing! Oatmeal and smoothies go in there too. Its great to transport your food for lunches.
very VERY cool! best of luck to ya!
Saw this on smashedpeasandcarrots and thought of you and your love of canning jars and then you post about them the very next day. = ) Take a look…thought it was a cool idea. = ) http://cuppow.com/

My husband and i ended up being very glad Michael managed to conclude his researching through the entire precious recommendations he made from your very own web page. It’s not at all simplistic to simply continually be handing out ideas that many many people may have been making money from. And we also remember we’ve got the blog owner to give thanks to because of that. Those explanations you made, the simple site menu, the friendships you aid to engender – it’s got most spectacular, and it’s really helping our son in addition to us imagine that this situation is enjoyable, which is certainly tremendously important. Thanks for all!
Really fantastic information can be found on web site. “Prayer is the wing wherewith the soul flies to heaven, and meditation the eye wherewith we see God.” by Ambrose of Milan.
Things i have observed in terms of personal computer memory is always that there are technical specs such as SDRAM, DDR etc, that must fit the requirements of the mother board. If the computer’s motherboard is rather current and there are no main system issues, replacing the ram literally usually takes under sixty minutes. It’s on the list of easiest laptop or computer upgrade techniques one can imagine. Thanks for giving your ideas.
What’s up to every body, it’s my first go to see of this web site; this web site consists of awesome and really excellent data designed for readers.
First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question that I’d like to ask if you do
not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your thoughts prior to writing.
I have had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out
there. I do take pleasure in writing but it just
seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally lost simply just trying to figure out how
to begin. Any ideas or hints? Cheers!
