Eating with allergies
Okay, I'm allergic to lactose and yeast. Lactose is easy to substitute, but because yeast is an unusual allergy to have, it's really difficult to find substitutes for it. This means obvious things like bread are off limits, but also things like certain types of sausages and meats, as well as over ripe fruits and veggies,…

Anyone experience going into a calorie deficit and some days having a hard time even hitting that lower number of calories? I'm excercising a lot and walking a ton. Maybe too much?

How to feed veggies to a picky man?!
My husband is really picky, and it's a non-negotiable thing. If he doesn't like it, he wont eat it. It's not like a child where you can force it upon him, haha. I'd love to get him to eat more vegetables, but that is a huge challenge. It also sucks because who wants to cook two meals for one time of the day, like two…

Tracking Marinades
Lately I have been really into marinading my tofu but I am not sure how to track it. Since it does not all soak into the tofu I am not eating all the marinade in the recipe. The marinades are not many calories so its not that big of a deal either way but I was wondering how everyone else tracks their marinade.
