Quick question should I count the Snapple I drink if I'm doing the soda challenge?
Milwaukee, WI

itscheezybabay @annefood so I should just drink water during this challenge
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Yes definitely drink water during the Challenge. You can also drink seltzer if you're craving a fizzy drink, but be sure to get plain seltzer or naturally flavored seltzer like Poland spring lemon,...

annefood Hey @maddiedod ! Have you tried drinking sparkling water with copped fruit in it? The fruit flavors the water, plus you get a little treat at the bottom of the glass :)

Is there any way to stop these eating marathons?I mean I eat almost everything I have in the fridge and its been happening for a couple days
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Hey @Lazy_Nash - perhaps you can try cleaning out your fridge of anything that is tempting, and just keep fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables. This way, if you have a craving, the options are...

If I want to bake something sweet in less calories, what can I do? For example, replacing milk with water etc.
I've already tried replacing milk with water, eggs with that Semper's No-Egg-thing, and sugar with less sugar or sweetener.

darkchocolatepeanutbutter Most baked goods are calorically-dense even if they are made without animal products so it's good to eat an appropriate portion. You can use substitutes for regular milk like soy milk or coconut...
