Kale-who knew there is fat in that harmless green?

1Mereader · September 2019

Hello, My name is Candace. I am starting MFPal again. Hopefully, I can keep tracking. My sis is encouraging some of our family to try Whole30, and I started but have had small amount of sugar each day, so my 30 days starts over. But, at lease I am not wolfing down lots of sugary snacks every day. So, I call that a win in my book.

Yay! Now I have an excuse not to eat that roadside weed. :-D

Kale has 0.9g of fat per 100g. Not exactly what I would call much fat. Fat is an important part of a person's diet and I would hope you are still getting it from somewhere.

Whole30 is generally not well reviewed as a weight loss diet because it is extremely restrictive and hard to stay consistent with. Don't do it simply because your sister is. The only thing you need to do to lose weight is eat less calories than your body burns. You can still eat things you enjoy in moderation if they fit your goals.

If you're having to keep restarting it's probably not a good diet for you

(The fraction of a gram of fat in kale is the least of my complaints about kale. It needs to stay in its place - lining the sides of the buffet

)

Moderation instead of excess is a win

Welcome back. I started logging again recently too. Good luck with your goals!!

I have done Whole30 - it’s definitely not designed for a weight loss result, but many do lose weight by default. I have quite a bit of auto immune stuff going on, and have been dealing with it since I got sick with a mystery illness in 8th grade, so it was really good for me to hit the “reset” button on my body while also eliminating the cravings cycle (sugar is a monster!!). Through it I was able to drastically reduce the swelling throughout my body and joints while also clearing decades-long brain fog. It.was.amazing!! But oh so hard to keep up with on a long term basis. Through it I was able to discover my triggers, and with that knowledge I can make the daily decisions on what to eat (or not), and the subsequent effects it will have on me in time.

Kale is most edible in sausage and kale soup! YUM!

Kale-who knew there is fat in that harmless green?
