I went from "Mom jeans" to my daughter's jeans, literally! I was a size 22 at my heaviest, and today I'm in a size 10. Just a little farther to go to reach my goal!

I just deleted a bunch of people too - almost 60 people in fact. The only one's I have left are personal friends (some of whom are not good loggers but I keep them anyway), and a couple of really motivational MFP pals. That's it! I don't need or want pals to comment every single time I complete my diary, or workout, but…

Best of luck to you.

I suffered with Plantar Fasciitis for many years, buying special shoes, inserts, custom orthotics, trying frozen water bottles, stretches/exercises and etc. The thing that wound up being a permanent fix though, was a $30 night splint that I wore every night for about a month. That was 2 years ago, and I have not had a…

Add me if you are a positive person, and serious about living a healthy lifestyle. :smile:

I made them with your pumpkin/apple pie spice suggestion today, as well as chopped pecans, and decreased applesauce to 1/2 cup. They were delicious!

I've served them as a dessert too, in addition to a meal and a snack. :smile: I added chopped dehydrated apples, golden raisins and pecans to my last batch. They were yummy.

Let me know how they turn out when you try them. :smiley:

Again, Wow! You're making all kinds of great variations to the recipe! Thanks for playing with the recipe and posting these new ideas! I'm going to make them your way this time. :smiley:

For me personally, the protein powder I use makes a big difference in the taste.

I think this is a pretty forgiving recipe - if you look at the original that I linked to in recipe, I added 1/2 cup extra applesauce because I wanted to make sure mine were really moist, and they are. I say if you like them the way you made them, keep doing it that way! :smiley:

They are very easy to make! :smile:

You're welcome! :smiley:

Kate7294, Here is a link to an awesome protein powder blog. She has tons of recipes that use all the varieties of protein powders, just in case you want to try something other than whey. http://proteinpow.com/

Kate7294, I think you can use any type of whey protein powder - those are the only ones I have experience baking with - I've never tried to bake with soy or other types of protein powders. With that being said, I read some great advice on a blogger's website about using protein powders in recipes, "if it tastes like…

Deli-turkey slice rolled around an avocado slice or a piece of low-fat cheese. As others have mentioned, boiled eggs and Greek yogurt are great. Another option is a protein smoothie.

Yep, I sure did! Sorry about that Mygnsac!

Sounds great!

Mygnsac, you can make it without the ground flax seed if you like. I love the flavor of flax seed, and I started out adding it to my regular oatmeal - just a tiny bit at the time - then increased the amount over time. Now I use it in everything!

I love the idea of adding raisins and pecans. I will definitely try that next time. I'm so glad you enjoyed them!

Thanks! I hope everyone enjoys them!

I like to make an egg white omelet with smoked turkey (from the deli), sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh baby spinach. Sometimes, I don't even bother with the omelet - I just stir the ingredients together with the egg whites and scramble them up together.

For scrambled egg whites, I use fresh baby spinach, sun-dried tomatoes and chopped smoked turkey (from the deli). The pesto mentioned above sounds delicious too.

Love your smile!

Yep!

Sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
