Around me there was no shortage. Have you truly looked everywhere???!!!

I've looked in a couple of grocery stores to no avail. We don't have a lot of different stores to choose from here, but I won't give up! I did read there was a shortage again. I am going to stock up if/when I find it! I have been adding pumpkin pie spice to my (homemade) cappuccino's lately. So good!!!

walkingwoman · 09-07-2010, 04:22 PM

Brenda, check Target. They always have it at mine when noone else does

and I have just a regular Target with a small grocery section.

Gilded Lily....awesome hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did!

ColleenMA66 · 09-08-2010, 04:13 AM

I'm .6 below LDW. Yesterday was my first day of P3. I wasn't hungry much if at all but I did eat. I didn't count calories so no clue where I was. I need more water today though. I thought I got so much in yesterday but I don't think I did.

Today
Br - left over steak and mushrooms
Lunch - rest of the steak, salad with ranch dressing
Snack - cocoa crack
Dinner - burger, fried green beans....loooooooove those things!

More water....I'm going to try for the same amount as on p2

Have a great day!

brittanilh · 09-08-2010, 06:26 AM

Oh I can't WAIT to join you guys (which will be Friday - Yay!!)

What's cocoa crack?

Sounds Fun! Lol!

I'm dying for an omelette! W/ mushrooms and cheese and sour cream and salso all fried in butter!! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm....

Thanks guys, for all the great ideas for us new P3'ers!!! It's a HUGE help!!

I just looked at my new Wal-Mart, the one that did NOT have it stocked last year at this time either, and they do NOT have it. I will check out Kroger on Fri when I go to work next time. If I find myself in any other store I will check there too! My "old" Wal-Mart may have it as they did last year at this time, but don't plan on being around there any time soon.

ColleenMA66 · 09-08-2010, 01:44 PM

Here ya go

"Coco Crack:"

Coco crack is chocolate made with 2 TBSP virgin organic coconut oil, 2 TBSP unsweetened cocoa, and sweetener to taste. Blend together and pour on a paper plate and put in fridge. It will harden and then you can break it into pieces. Like a dark chocolate. Additionally, you can add crushed nuts or coconut when you can tolerate them. I use it to coat my other treats or fruit also. Very good.

It's yummy and satisfies my chocolate craving which is good because I have a box of Godiva truffles in the cupboard waiting for me.....someday little truffles....sommmmeday.

I haven't even opened the cupboard for fear of one of them jumping out of the box into my mouth

walkingwoman · 09-08-2010, 01:53 PM

I was just at Fry's. No PUMPKIN at all

Oh, you are a much stronger person than I am!! If chocolate is in the house, I'm at its mercy!!

I've convinced myself if I put any sugar or starch in my mouth I'll gain 10lbs over night....so far that's working for me

I went to Trader Joe's last Friday and I have 8 of their sugarfree chocolate bars. Nummy! They are in my upright freezer in the garage...and haven't had any of them yet. So NOT me!

No fish for dinner tonight. I had a big greek salad with home made dressing. I am having strawberries for dessert with whipped cream. Gotta try out my Issi whipper thingee.

Freezer for you then!!!! You can put it in the freezer also, that way it hardens quicker.
