I’m on a low glycemic diet - I bake goods- but use no sugar and i use lower glycemic flours. Instead of cake - how about a lighter mousse? Instead of a donut how about a lighter crepe?

Saffron ... saffron everything!

Working on my greens and fish. *Spinach shake with vanilla protein powder and extra greens, spirulina and alfalfa. Herbed Salmon avocado mayo salad Greens with pumpkin seeds and anchovies Cucumber Portuguese sardines with piri piri

Why would weight loss be different after 40?

😋 yum

Staples I always have in our house: Eggs Greens-spinach, kale, chard Cauliflower Chicken Salmon - smoked or fresh I find the above versatile and quick to make!

I do like halo top. Haven’t tried wink. I’ll have half a pint every other month or so. Red velvet for the win!

@pierinifitness We live half the year in Italia - if you like it - buon appetito! :) (In Modena, Italy- one of the best balsamic pasta dishes ever! Fettuccini & balsamic with porcini and shaved cheese. Also popular chilled with penne and mozzarella, basil and tomatoes. )

Ciao, perche? Why? All my husbands family is in Roma- this is the base for caprese salad no? Pasta and balsamic? (Add in bufala mozz, etc) On our boxes it says 85 grams is the recommended portions.. but who is counting? :)

Blueberries I love them sooo

I hate when people on MFP continually ask :smile: “what do you mean by healthy?” “What do you mean by clean?” Seriously? Isn’t it all just semantics?! 🤬

Steak - chuck it on the grill - flip , flip 2min on each side - bon appetit :)

Same here / thyroid condition and my endocrinologist said no prob to have a few servings of tofu/soy products per week.

Just not fair that the tastier breeds are higher cal!! 😊

@ OP - I poach or roast chicken - if you have access to a convection roast button on your stove- game changer! It stays really moist. Whole birds also cook a lot faster in convection roast mode. Everyone else in the great chicken debate: Check out this article - it talks about the “dilution effect” in mass production over…

Yes to all three! I have bison and venison regularly. I’ve only had Elk a handful of times. It’s a special order from my butcher shop. I actually prefer venison to beef. Re : quail - it’s very tasty- I’ll add pheasant to that list of items I think the gang may like. :)

Nah, for me cheat days lead to yo-yoing. For me it’s not worth it. A few hundred calories is one thing - a smorgasbord is another. 🤗

Whenever they want :) It’s all personal preference. I find shaved underarms on men more appealing then with hair. 🤗 Legs— I find more masculine with hair but if they like to go buff- more power to them!

How about ratatouille? For breakfast with an egg - or evening by itself or with meat of choice. This is an easier recipe- lots of vegetable goodness! https://www.themediterraneandish.com/easy-ratatouille-recipe/

I did - but that was a million pages ago :) Herbs de Provence lover here! I bought mine in Provence too and just used it all up- bittersweet. It’s great on everything isn’t it? Aleppo pepper is my next purchase!

Produce lovers - I couldn’t resist, it is baby Bok Choy 🥬 season! They look like tulip bulbs to me. 🌷

I do 2 measurements. I do a natural waist measurement - which is the narrowest part of your waist and a lower waist measurement which is at the belly button. If you are measuring for a hip to waist ratio - I use belly button. Hope that helps!

45 min strength training and 10 hours of stress.

I was ruined for green tea too after Japan. So now I just buy it from Japan! I found this brand to be the most rich and pure. The smell is amazing, the taste is very smooth. I love it. They even sell on Amazon!

Night owl here with a non traditional work schedule. I too have read articles about working nights not being optimal for the body / but we adapt. I typically get home after 11pm and in bed by 1- day starts around noon. Weekends don’t exist for me so I don’t know what TGIF means lol I believe so long as we are rested -…

I had premium for years - I just downgraded. To me it wasn’t worth it.
