@professor700 and @garber6th let me know what you think -- I LOVE this product! Tonight we are having the no sugar added almond topping on top of salmon
I got my order, I didn't have any fish but I had some shrimp and I used the almond topping and it was delicious! I used some of the topping on some riced cauliflower and that was really good too!0 -
@garber6th so glad you liked the topping! It's awesome -- I have found that if I brush the fish with some flavored olive oil before topping the fish it makes an awesome meal!2

Is there a reason why you're not eating the egg yolk? Most of the vitamins and minerals are in the yolk...Lizakabibbis wrote: »I'm so boring with food that I eat pretty much the same thing every day during the week and keep my dinners different at night.

@Ultima_Morpha - yeah, I just don't like the yolk when boiled. Since it's the easiest thing for me to do for breakfast during the week - I just eat the whites.3

Yea...I find its easy to get bored with food now....I am still doing some orgain or other protein shakes because of this reason. Definitely different than before surgery. On the bright side, Whole Foods will Steam and season any fish or seafood item of your choice for free!1 -
So if you want some steamed and seasons fish crab shrimp Etc just go to Whole Foods to the seafood case and ask them and they will do it for you and it is amazing amazing amazing! And relatively inexpensive in comparison to going to a restaurant. Today I went in and got some fresh wild halibut with tequila lime season steamed and a pound of steamed shrimp with Old Bay seasoning. Delicious!

Because I am a little lazy and a little grossed out by taking chicken off the bones, Costco sells packages of shredded rotisserie chicken meat, all white meat. It's awesome. I divide it into portions in ziploc bags and keep it in the freezer and it's super handy.9 -
I've been into avocado deviled eggs and avocado egg salad. I just use avocado instead of mayo, a bit of mustard, a dash of salt. I also like a bit of garlic powder in there. Yum!4

I eat all the FAT and skin on the rotisserie chicken. To me it's the best part and fills me up. Breaking free from Calories in Calories out thinking has freed my thinking on food and helped me get to my HEALTHIEST point in my life.4

What do you mean exactly by breaking "free" from the CICO thinking?0 -
@gamommy Through my own research the past few years I've come to conclusion that calories aren't really relevant to weight loss. I'm convinced it's about the TYPES of food a peerson eats that is important. I see so many people on mfp eating 1,000-1,200 calories struggling to "maintain" their weight. I'm at my lowest weight since high school and eat probably 2,500-3,000 calories. But I rarely eat highly processed food. I don't drink shakes or take vitamins. (all my blood work is good) Don't eat Quest bars or other "healthy" bars. Just stick mainly to fruits, veggies, beans, nuts, seeds, cheese, meats, fish. I graze all day long. Eat when I'm hungry, stop when I start getting full. And exercise most days. Mainly walking and running. 5

To me, CICO is the math and science of metabolism, but finding a path to eating and moving that makes you satisfied and gives you the results you want is the real solution. James has found a path that works for him. CICO still determines the result, but not thinking in those terms is very freeing.
We all need an eating and exercise plan that works for us.10 -
ooooooh......not touching the CICO debate. It not that amusing in the classroom either. Yet students will fight with a minute amount of knowledge as long as you will let them or until the popcorn is gone. The truth is biochemistry doesnt follow the laws of thermodynamics in a uniform way for most people....So to SOME extent, listen to your own body. However, if your own body tells you to eat 10,000 kcal and you only 'use' 2000, you will eventually become morbidly obese, therefore you must use wisdom as well.3

For me, personally, I find that CICO only counts if I am not eating a low carb high(er) fat diet.0
