Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I've done the same thing! I wanted to lose 15, now need to lose about 20 since becoming veggie. I've enjoyed my rice and avocados too much! If you read the label on the ICBINB spray carefully, it isn't actually zero, it is > 1, which leads me to believe that if using more than a squirt or two, you are probably getting fat & calories.

Tuesday, January 27, 2009, 12:06 PM Hello from a new member, I agree to track is the answer when a person is struggling. I HAD 15# to lose but by eating really healthy foods, I managed to allow myself to gain 5#, so now 20# is my goal. I was eating too much. The tracking is now in place. I dragged out my old Weight Watcher paper work. Has anyone used the " I can't believe It's Not Butter, " 0 Calorie spray? If used as a sauté ingredient are there calories to count? I sautéed cubed tofu in it yesterday. [Yummy] By using 3 tablespoons of the zero stuff, was it actually zero? I am looking forward to sharing recipes, with this group. I will try to get my ingredient amounts in order. I have cooked so long, that I am more of a " guesser, " than a measurer. Enjoy your days. Barb K Mesa, Arizona USA PS: I think I have a lot of activities in common with The Dragon...gee, I've never had a " dragon pal, " before!

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 It is still oil, and last I heard, hydrogenated oil, at that. They are allowed to say it has no fat if there is less than .5 g of fat per serving. Even if a product is 100% fat, if one serving is less than half a gram, it is considered " fat free " . If you use one spray, you are adding negligible amounts of fat to your food. If you use 3 tablespoons of it, you are adding 3 tablespoons of fat to your food!

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks for the replies about the O Cal spray... I know I have been being delusional. I knew this in my secret heart, but I wanted a miracle. So the O spray in bulk, is history. I do love the taste. After the last of it for spraying is gone, I will not buy it again. Waa! Now to ideas for safe snacks. This sounds a lot like safe sex, and I guess to our bodies having a safe snack is using good sense as well. Because of the craze over the Super Bowl [our Arizona, Phoenix Cardinals are playing in it] food for the game, is something to plan for. I loved the wieners in a blanket in my old life. Now with the reduced fat crescent rolls and veggie hot dogs, they are available to bake. Not too terrible in calories, if we don't eat a whole plate full. Dipped in mustard, they are fairly " safe. " Veggie chili is good and a big bowl of fresh veggies, should round out the game time eating...toss some fresh fruit in a bowl...and we are ready to say: GO Cardinals! Good luck on our eating today! Barb AZ, USA Of course a dragon is likely to be vegetarian, but the comic books and video games seem to differ! GRIN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
