new help quick on Cauliflower pizza crust!!
I am in the middle of trying to make this. The recipe says to rice raw cauliflower, put one cup in the microwave(no water needed) and cook for 8 minutes. First off, it was too dry without added water, so I added a little, but after it was cooked, it is only about 1/3 cup. That doesn't look like enough to mix with 1 cup of…

Fresh food has ruined grocery deli food :-(
So I think Chinese deli food from grocery stores is pretty commonly disliked since it usually sits around all day and doesn't get replaced. I've always thought it was kind of ****ty, but I could eat it nonetheless. Today is the first time I wasn't able to eat food flat out to get the macros. I've been known to throw…

Okay, can we clear up this "moderation" thing?
I feel like the argument about moderation is so vague. One side says that cutting out certain foods you have trouble with completely is your best bet, because they cause nothing but harm, addictive behavior & overeating. Then another side says that cutting out any food is absurd, and soon you'll just feel deprived and eat…

Eating training calories back and rate of assimilation
I have been thinking on this one and have come to something that others here may not have thought of. Apologies if this has already been covered. If one day I total up 1000 training calories the simple math is that I can eat back 1000 calories and not expect to gain weight; calories out, calories in. That is fine, except…
