Congratulations Jingle!
This week I really wanted to include this great giveaway opportunity with all my Mamavation sistas, as we have been talking a lot about including fiber and challenging each other to get more fiber in our diets. I know that adding fiber has been a great way for me to stay full longer and has helped me lose weight. Now being pregnant it has been great for those lovely pregnancy symptoms you get like constipation and nausea. I have used high fiber cereals for quite a while to lose weight and right now just to feel better. This week I have really focused on only eating high fiber cereals for breakfast versus the less fiber/more sugary cereals. I wasnt a huge fan of the original Fiber One cereal before, but realized it really isnt that bad. I actually like it when I mix it with my other cereal. I have really enjoyed it by doing a half bowl fiber one original and half bowl of honey nut cheerios. Tastes really good and is more filling.
This weeks Mamavation goals:
1.Continue to include lots of high fiber foods, and make the switch back to more whole grains vs white.
2. No soda
3. Get lots of rest as I have just a couple weeks left to go!!!
Fiber One Original cereal also can be a great way to incorporate fiber into mealtime recipes. For ideas, Hungry Girl is providing tips for the Fiber One Original cereal “Help Take the Hunger out of Dieting” mini microsite. My first 15 readers will be able to sign up to receive a free box of cereal through the microsite.
Fiber helps satisfy your hunger so it’s easier to eat less and lose weight without feeling as hungry.
~One serving of Fiber One Original cereal provides more than half (57%) of the Daily Value of fiber.
~Fiber One Original cereal is a tasty way to start your morning on the right track with 0 grams of sugar, 14 grams of fiber, 60 calories and 1 gram of fat per serving.

Thanks to Fiber One and Myblogspark I received a Fiber One “Help Take the Hunger out of Dieting” prize pack that includes Fiber One Original cereal, a cereal-on-the-go container, food scale, water bottle and notepad for tracking what you eat. I love the cereal on the go container and the water bottle. We need to remember to drink lots of water, especially if we are increasing our fiber! The cereal on the go container is going to be great for me to bring when I have to go to Kennedys all day appointments. I have tried bringing cereal and milk before and my milk has leaked all over. Cant wait to give this one a try! It even has a built in ice ring to keep the milk nice and cold! One thing I have looked at before while dieting is a diet scale, but have actually never gotten one. So this will be nice to have when I start up again next month. Although I really do not know how to use one....What am I measuring and how much should the stuff weigh. I have always just cut back and never been that thorough. Any ideas would be great.

ReplyDeleteWow - 25 days til Christmas? I'm looking at the ticker on your site!! Eek Better get to baking cookies to send out!
And will you have a Christmas baby? Time will tell!!
I'd love to enter the contest. I find when I have a high-fiber breakfast, I stay full longer. Love me some oatmeal!! Thanks for the coupon too!
Love how you mentioned upping your water when you increase your fiber - I learned that lesson the hard way, and at about 8 months pregnant too!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
I haven't seen this cereal in YEARS. I used to use it in my yogurt when it first came out!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week and glad you are enjoying the fiber challenge
Coleen,
ReplyDeleteGreat fiber info, especially since I missed the party by getting lost in time zones
Good for you on staying up on your fiber and cutting soda. being pregnant was awesome for my healthy eating, Just keep up the good work after baby comes. Love the Giveaway work in. I love giveaways :)
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the Fiber! I like Fiber One and my boys think that the Fiber One Caramel Delight is a 'TREAT' so they love eating it too. I also keep Fiber One bars at my desk at work for 'emergencies'! Keep up the great work!
ReplyDeleteYay for FIBER!! So proud of you! My Hubby likes to mix Fiber One into his oatmeal to up his fiber intake. I love using Fiber One instead of bread crumbs - I always have a box on hand. (Learned that from Hungry Girl.)
ReplyDeletethanks for this great offer i love fiber one cereals and the bars i think they offer a great vareity which i can use for healthy snacking and eating
ReplyDeleteI have never tried Fiber One cereal and would love to give it a shot. I find myself hungry not long after eating so I am trying to incorporate my fiber into my meals
