I'm not a big fan of breakfast food so I just eat half an avocado and a slice of whole wheat bread with Nutella and bananas. It works for me!

Do you live in Canada, or have good health care coverage? Ask to go and see a nutritionist. General Practitioners have a broad range of knowledge, but sometimes lack the deeper knowledge on certain issues to make a good call. Going to a nutritionist would be a really good start, because nutrition, and helping people find…

I love cottage cheese with just some pepper on top. So delicious.

I add legumes, or beans, to absolutely everything. Hashbrowns? Add black beans, corn, and some salsa. Salads? Add any type of bean. Soups or stews? Put some beans in there. Beans are so high in protein, fiber, and an array of micronutrients. They are amazing.

I've been wanting to purchase a scale for awhile but keep putting it off!

My essentials always include fresh fruits and vegetables, canned tomatoes, and an ungodly amount of beans because you can put then in almost anything!

My husband has bouts of really bad acne with cysts sometimes appearing on his upper neck and under the chin region. We have no definite proof, but with experimentation, we have found that when he eats excessive amounts of white bread he breaks out really badly. He also develops acne when he increases his intake of sugar.…

It's really too bad that you feel the need to respond in anger when someone brings up an opinion that isn't your own. First off, a plant based diet is not necessarily a vegetarian diet, and it has been constantly shown in academic research to be superior to a high meat and high fat diet, due to the increase in fiber and…

Black, or if I'm feeling like a dessert, a dark chocolate hazelnut locha from Waves. And yes, I log them but the mocha is hard since it's not that big of a franchise.

Ketogenic diets can be very dangerous. Eating a plant based diet with less meat and more legumes is not only way easier, but it also is shown to be healthy for long term (and that's what people should be aiming for), and there are far less health risks. If you're getting any negative symptoms, especially things like…

I love making burritos, but with lentils instead of ground beef. They're soooooo good!

There is a serious difference here! I can see it in the stomach the most! You should be so stoked! The fact that you are now able to fit in smaller clothes and you feel lighter on your feet is huge! Good work! Be proud of yourself and keep going. I don't even know you and I'm proud! (:

Hello! I took a couple nutrition classes in university and the first thing we learned (sorry to burst your bubble) is that low carb high fat diets are quite bad. Carbohydrates should be the staple of your diet (fruits, vegetables, whole grains) because they are what provide your body with energy. Your brain especially…

Hey there! (:

This is quite an interesting site. Most people the similar goal of improving their wellness and are very quick to be supportive and kind! It's quite beautiful.

Tacos!!! Instead of ground beef, cook lentils with the taco seasoning then add all the regular toppings. So good and filling!!!

Intermittent fasting is pretty sweet (:

Drink tea or coffee or go for a walk. That is what always helps me (:

Hello there! I know this is really hard. Extremely hard. But as someone who was forty pounds overweight and am now in great shape, i promise you it will get better. You need to create a plan for yourself. Minimum three days a week with a mix of cardio and resistant training. If you do not have a plan, you will go to the…
