My bad...read your post incorrectly. :)

lol! That's what I basically said. Micronutrients are vitamins and minerals. :smile: But, I did leave out the macros. I see what you are saying. :)

Also junk food and high processed foods will be less nutrient dense and deprive your body of necessary nutrients (vitamins and minerals) to effectively run a healthy vessel. Just saying..not saying don't eat some junk food or high processed foods, just saying don't think that should be the norm, and also it cost a lot of…

IMHO, if your calories are low, like say 12-1300, then I would say eat up to the calories, if trying to lose weight ..but like the person above asked, what are your goals? I usually do not eat up to my daily calories, but my daily calories are also around 1800. It isn't intentional, just is.

This is awesome! Congrats!!!!

Eat a filling breakfast...a few eggs (140 calories), with maybe some oatmeal or yogurt/berries...or eggs over beans or quinoa and spinach....probably equate like 400 calories or so, depending on grams...protein bar in between and piece of fruit (200-250)..then if you want eat your power bowl or a homemade something else…

Uh? You're a grown woman. Don't eat the food or 1000 calorie meals if you don't want to. I don't get this. Culture or not. Tell them not to pile food so high or that you have to watch your weight due to medical reasons if you feel you need to explain yourself to others for not eating your food or finishing it. or if you…

I feel you or should I say, I did feel you almost two months ago. Fell off and finally started exercising again and realized it was harder than before. Energy was low and I couldn't believe how tired I was after a short time. Was so darn frustrated. Good news is after exercising consistently for almost two months, my…

lol! I bought into the "must lift heavy" mantra some years back... shoulders started getting wider, waist started getting boxed...Ummmm....I'm cool with all that. lol... Ill stick to lifting weights, but not as heavy as before and more reps, isolating muscles, and not just compound moves. Did SL 5x5 last time.......not my…

I use a little olive oil...I have all kinds of flavors..habanero, garlic, lemon, orange, Mediterranean, etc (order it from a specific small business). I usually just use 7 grams or so, 60 cals 7 grams of fat..something like that...worth it.

lol! It's the holidays...eat at maintenance or even...even a little over isn't going to hurt as long as you have been consistent. Enjoy girl! :)

Garlic quinoa and brown rice/Eggs/Tomatoes/Black Beans/Avocados/Spinach ....this was a preworkout meal/breakfast from last week.

Whole Jar of garlicky and spicy pickles from pickALS. Benefits ALS and addicting. Sodium intake the last few days is through the roof, I'm sure. lol

This is AWESOME!!! Congrats!

Wow...aren't you just a ray of sunshine and hope! lol! Ba hum bug. Don't be too positive. lol

This. Works well for me at this time. I decided on this percentage before getting back on MFP. A few years back, I did 40(c),30(P), (30)F; I ate land animals back then so it wasn't that hard to eat more protein; it was a chore, but manageable. As long as you are in a calorie deficit, you will lose weight no matter where…

Eggs are very important in my diet due being a pescetarian and not eating seafood everyday,,, Love them...egg sandwich are great. I don't eat egg sandwiches often, but use eggs often. lol ... lol @ all who are focusing on pieces of eggs falling out of a sandwich. Find that hilarious. No negativity intended. lol :)

Always looking for new friends! No need to send a message. Just add me directly and have your profile open to me when you do become a friend. Anyone whose profile is still closed, when we are friends, I will assume you are a creeper. lol.. (had an experience with a few).

Last night for dinner, I cooked/heated up a can of wild caught sardines in olive oil, fried them with chopped artichokes, diced garlic pickles, tomato paste, fresh garlic and red salsa, ...topped them with hot chili garlic sauce...and added black beans and cooked bok choy on the side! Protein powerhouse, cheap and good! I…

"As long as you stay within your calorie goal, get adequate protein and fat, how many carbs you eat will be personal preference" (Sardelsa). THIS Right here. I love how she says "adequate" as some may try to push their macro ideas on to you. As long as you are in a calorie deficit, you will lose weight. Years ago, I was…

I boil for about 10 minutes, turn off stove top, cover, then let it sit for another 10 minutes...rinse in cool water...usually works out well, but it can be a hit or miss.

First thing in the am, naked, after I use the bathroom, and before I drink any water.
