Pumpkin Pie Oats.

14 0z can pumpkin
1 tbsp. pumpkin pie spice
3 cups oats
4 cups water

Put pumpkin,spice,and water in pan.Bring to boil.Add oats and cook according to oats pkg. 1 cup=179 cal. 6g.fiber
6g. protien.

I eat a 1 cup serving and add 1 tsp. maple syrup and 1/2 cup almond breeze. total 215 cal

OMG this sounds so good. I am allergic to pumpkin so I replace it with sweet potatoes. I have to try.

I'm sure yams,sweet potatoes or squash would work. The benefit is all that fiber.

Sooooooooooo I have a request. I don't know how to post pic. Maryjane has posted a few for me for the board. The way I did it was Joyce took the pic with her phone and e-mailed it to me I then e-mail it to Maryjane and she posted it. If I make my 2 fat blocks and Joyce takes a pic for me could I e-mail it to someone so that you can post it for me on this thread and on the fat quilt thread?

Carrie you are doing great. and wishes do come true you will get to be 185 just keep plugging away. but I thought you said hubby said once you have fat you never go back do you want to be thin or just plump not fat?????????? I think it is great you are down 2 sizes I wear stretchie everything so I know some stuff is bigger but I don't know how many sizes I went down. The funniest was when my underpants here falling off. Since last Jan I lost 26 lb so I guees it will take me another year to lose the other 24. As long as we are all doing this together I guess I will continue. I really think if it wasn't for everyone on this thread I would have given up months ago.

Before I found this thread I hadn't even tried to lose weight, I had given up. You gave me a reason to try again. I did lose that first month, and that has given me the incentive to continue. That, and all the fun that I have here!

WOW everyone is doing so great! I'm like a yoyo up 1 or 2 pds down 1 or 2 pds. I just cant seem to lose and I dont have a problem gaining. I just really need to start losing because I'm feeling it in my body with hurting. I'm not used to carring this weight.

Keep giving info on how your losing I sure am enjoying reading them and the recipes.

I havent lost anything yet...

So far I have only lost 4 pounds. I need to lose at least 40 more, and would love to lose 55 so I have a ways to go. The best part is that I have stopped gaining, yay!

PS - Tru I would be happy to post pics for you, or walk you through doing it yourself. :P

Trupeach DH did say that and he has never said anything about my weight, he loves me either way. I'm the one whose tired of carrying all this around and with a family history of heart disease and diabetes I decided it was time for a change plus I still have a little one to raise.

Now to decide what pattern OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH and fabric. I was going to sew this afternoon I think I will go throw my stash instead. What to do, what to do, so many decissions.
