[QUOTE="TriciaWs, post: 2256642, member: 475901"] As others have said, ditch the calorie count. I lost over 5.5 stone by carb counting. At first I weighed everything that had carbs in it, then after a few weeks I could just weigh breakfast (too easy to let my flaxseed/chia/oatbran mix creep up) plus any new foods. I thought about the foods I'd miss and found substitutes for most of them although I've given up on pasta and have the spag bol meat and sauce without. I've become of fan of cauliflower rice and make a batch in the oven every week - used with curry, stir fry or 'risotto'. [/QUOTE]
