Hey, noob here! I'm a 27 year old mom of two young girls. Looking to get strong and be a woman I feel good about them looking up to. I don't eat meat and try to limit my other animal product consumption which leaves me eating a lot of carbs to get that full feeling. I'd love a mentor to help me!

@Jakiepaper‌ that's my concern, probably a lot of sugar! The pineapple juice sounds really good! But I don't know about mixing it with pb... I think I need to let go of my issues with mixing flavours and I'll be able to make better smoothies. Great idea to use a coloured glass, I'll try that and see how it works. Maybe…

I'm on the app, thank you! I thought I must be missing something so obvious. Glad to know it's not just me!

I add veggies to my lentils too, forgot to add that. It's like ground beef for someone like me who doesn't like to eat meat!

As a comfort eater this means a lot to me! Thanks for sharing this honest perspective! OP it's really tricky to get out of eating those feelings. I drink a lot of tea for comfort, maybe that would help you too? Still seeking comfort in food, I know. But baby steps right?

I had checked the FAQ section and didn't see anything. :)

This is a great thread, I've had a few friend requests which is really nice! Just wondering if someone might be able to assist with something. When some one adds me a lot of the time they will include a little message. I can only see the first couple of words, not the whole msg. I've tried clicking on the request but it…

My mil uses them on her cereal, never thought to add them to a smoothie. She said the fill you up as well! Win win!

I use this recipe, not sure if it's gluten free. But I sub 4 cups of water for veggie stock because I find it adds flavour. I also add lots more spinach at the end. http://m.allrecipes.com/recipe/13978/lentil-soup/ I like to make it on Monday and eat it throughout the week. It freezes nicely too. I make my shepherds pie…

Haha I feel soo picky right now but at the same time I don't relate to being a picky eater. I really like spinach in my soups and salads or on a pita but I can't stand the idea of mixing it with my smoothie. I also don't understand putting fruit in a green salad, like raspberries or mandarin. I know some people do that. I…

Thanks for replying! I'm not really using them to fill up, what I like about them is if I have one shortly after I wake up I find myself grabbing a hand full of cashews about 30min-1hr later and then wanting lunch earlier as well. Where as prior to having them I wouldn't eat until around 12 and then I'd eat something big…

I have a hard time with over indulging, especially on my favourite things. Could it be the experience that you love? Maybe you could eat before going to the pub and then limit yourself to half of what you'd usually eat and maybe do one drink to one water. Same at brunch, eat super clean before you go and limit your intake.…

We don't have a date because we're just going to the jop when I feel ready. I'd like to feel my best when I do decide it's time, hopefully within the next few months. I'm also "sweating" because right after we marry I want to get pregnant and want to be at my best for my baby! Brides unite!

I'd love some friends! I'm new and my irl friends aren't active so it would be great to have an accountability buddy telling me to back away from the pizza and toward the mat.

I have my favourite pizza place as a contact in my phone and they know I like it thin crust, well done, and with paper plates.

I'm also looking for accountability friends! Please add me and we can help to uplift one another!

I've never checked the community out before so this is my first post, hi everyone! I don't like to label myself based on the types of foods I put in my body and I don't identify fully with either vegan or vegetarian so I just tell ppl I don't eat meat and I limit my animal product consumption. I try to live as ethically as…
