I make my pizza on a flour tortilla Burrito size, I make a kale and walnut pesto sauce, dairy free cheese, black olives, green olives, mushroom, and beyond meat beefy crumbles. You can also make the crust from polenta, and you can buy the polenta already made.

Yes, I have froze many a bean. lol I freeze the can beans however I do not like the sodium content either so I rinse them well and then place on clean kitchen towel to dry off a bit, place them on a cookie sheet put in freezer till hard then put them in baggies say a cup per baggie, that way they will not clump together.

I love my "veggeti" great way to have salads using zuccini noodles otherwise known as zoodles. I do cucumbers , zucchini , squash ... whatever will fir in there.

Good to see so many vegans and people who want to eat plant based and also are aware of ethical treatment of animals.

Nuts are good fats, coconut meat good oils = good fats , Chickpeas excellent

Ashes, you can DO IT. I f I can do it anyone can do it. There are a few movies that just really opened my eyes .

What a great story and Transformation, you got your life back. Congrats and what an inspiration.

If you want to lose , what I have found out is if I don't eat them back, I lose some weight, but it is nice to have that buffer if you want to say " Splurge" a bit. As they say weight lose = calorie in vs calorie out

The other thing people don't think about is how fast it travels through your body, such as whole foods compared to Processed box food or meat for that reason too, the whole foods will pass through at a much faster rate as it can dissolve and go through the intestines and out faster.

I just received the Garmin Vivofit last night, feel free to add and I will do the same. CraigShift

I just got my vivofit last night, I am glad to hear it gets you up and moving as that is what I need. Do you have any tips for me? I did seem to notice it gives some calories burned even when doing nothing, is that correct? thanks
