Take the amaranth seeds, chia, rolled oats, and hemp hearts and toast for 15-20 minutes at 350. Let cool.
Melt butter and add in PB, vanilla (cinnamon optional). Mix dry and wet ingredients (minus chocolate chips). Then mix in chocolate chips. Press onto parchment paper and bake 350 for 30 minutes (?). Let cool. Cut into 24 pieces or whatever size you want. Again, I'm just making this up so I may make adjustments as I go once I see how it really looks. I'll let you know how it works out. Add salt to taste, too.
Nice! I need no butter tho! Can't wait to hear how it turns out!
I can't eat coconuts, but I know.vegans who sub coconut oil for butter - start with less oil because I have never done it before and I am nit sure it's one to one.
Oh, remind me of this if/when I cook something you are going to eat. Coconut oil is something I cook with regularly and I use coconut milk/cream in certain dishes. There are other ways for me to cook so just remind me.
The bars could easily be made without coconut too. It is almonds for me, almost as bad as wheat.0 -

Good luck on your midterms. Back to your balanced choices soon, but today sounded yummy.0 -

We were up all night with a vomiting child!
Calling the pediatrician at 8:00 when they start taking on-call appointments.
Ugh!
I was lucky that I only vomited twice, but the other end wasn't fun.
How is he feeling today?
I felt much better than yesterday, & made it the whole day at work. I still feel a bit crampy in my stomach & gassy, but other than that it's alright.
Glad you are feeling better!0 -

Of course. I really almost ate 2 QB's last night after checking my macros. I didn't, because my fiber would have been 49 grams
and thought I'd better not push my luck.
It's okay, you don't have to give it to me.
The one day after looking at my Fiber count I had around 84 grams .
I confess that 2 months ago I bought some quest bars in case I was low on fiber I could fix it, and Wednesday I could have used one but did not have it in my work bag.
Free space for N and quest bars for G-49.
I believe I am tied with mo now. Unless @quiksylver296 is starting over today. Then B-2 for the quest bars
Not starting over til there's a winner. @MelissaPhippsFeagins and @MoHousdon are tied!0 -

I bought a groupon to the yoga place by my house. I'm going to my first class tonight after work!
Hopefully a change will help me...0 -

I ate an entire row of filled chocolate cupcake oreos yesterday, plus half a row of my friends double stuf oreos while watching TWD.
my binges are my hardest thing to get under control.0 -
I knew I was going to start my lifestyle change today so the whole weekend I intentionally ate any and everything I could get my hands on that I knew I wouldn't be able to eat anymore...im talking chicken nuggets, burgers, pizza, biscuits and gravy, cheese puffs, chips, fried chicken, slushes, ice cream, pasta, potatoes, fries, fried mushrooms...I probably consumed 10,000 calories this weekend

I know how you feel. I get anxious watching sometimes and if I had food in my hand, it is gone very quickly.0 -

You really don't have to exclued anything. If it is something you cannot eat in moderation, then yes, you might need to exclude it. Mostly, just make sure your calories are within your goal.0 -

+1. Do you really want to go without those items for the rest of you life? Try fitting in your craving in conscious portions along with the healthy stuff. Life without ice cream is not a life I want to live! lol0 -

I had a bingetastic weekend myself. It happens. Give yourself a break and move on.
I have to keep a lot of foods out of the house and only have them in single serve quantities.0 -
There are tiny girl scouts on campus selling cookies. And the peanut butter ones are vegan
If I buy a box I am almost certainly going to eat all of them at once. Am I going to buy it anyway? Yes.0 -

This!
If you can't have certain foods then like @crosbylee said exclude it until you get used to eating it in moderation.
@aubreywhitlow don't go into this as thinking you have to give up everything you like because, you will get burnt out on eating 'healthy' foods & then have a massive binge.0 -

I know right? I am counting down the days until Easter that I can eat ice cream again!0 -

Lots of people do that, but I have found that I do better at losing weight when I work those things into my diet in moderation. Obviously not every day, but maybe fried chicken one week and biscuits and gravy another week.0 -
Well, I'm over my limit today. Ugh. I'll just be careful not to let it ruin the rest of my week.0
