Edamame is my friend....     I thought I would share something that has worked for me and maybe just maybe it might help someone else......     All through my weight loss journey I had a really hard time overcoming the potato chip thing.  There is something about the dipping your hand in the bag and making the arm movement to your mouth...  It is definitely a head thing with me....     I discovered Seapoint Farms Eamame Soybeans in Pods....    They are called the wonder veggie and a good source of protein....    For those counting carbs, this product contains 5g "Net Effective Carbs" per serving by subtracting the dietary fiber which has minimal noted impact on blood sugar levels......     Now when I get home and grab a bag of something so that I can sit and check my email I choose Edamame...     I found it in the freezer section next to the frozen green beans at Super Walmart...  I put the whole bag in the microwave on the THAW setting for 5 minutes then I turn the bag over and set the timer at cook for another 5 minutes....   Drain then serve....   This has been a life saver for me....  1/2 cup serving has 100 calories and 8 grams protein...  You can get  2.5 servings out of the entire bag...   This is 100 % Natural Ingredients Soybeans......     It takes care of my need to stick my hand in a bag of chips and read email and before I know it the entire bag of chips are gone.....      Now I do it Low Carb, Low Fat, Cholesterol free, and it is a good source of proteinEdamame is the ...

Hey Sweetie,,,   They rock don't they....  LOL....  I am a little upset that I was getting them for $1.48 a bag and just out of no where....BAM......they were a $1.88 per bag....  What the heck???   I can see a price increase of maybe 5 or 10 cents but 40 cents a bag????    Well I still buy them and eat them anyway.....LOL   They are a best kept secret.....
