ItsTheWoo-Thank you for your post. I liked your "psychological" approach to eating. I do agree. I might use 3 tablespoons of butter to fry in or I'll only use 1 tablespoon and sprinkle some lemon/pepper seasoning in the frying pan and it is much more satisfying than the 3 tablespoon 300 calorie butter! I see where your going...Thanks so much for the insight. It really is helpful.
Dan-I'm trying to not concern myself so much with calories but instead eat in portion size and small meals through out the day. I'm eating chicken instead of hamburger etc. and limiting my butter as I was overusing it and not really getting any extra satisfaction out of it (like ItsTheWoo was saying) I think this is doing better for me. Thanks for your advice.
Lennie- I will have to check out some of those products!
