  • I make banana bread with nuts, and a third of the flour I replace with vanilla-flavored protein whey powder. The oil is replaced with applesauce. Because I haven't any issues with sucralose (Splenda), I use baking Splenda instead of sugar. 1/2 inch slice is 150 cals, 26 carbs, 4 protein and quiets the sweet tooth, and you…
  • If you are using the same pot to make the gravy as you use to brown the links, weigh them on a kitchen scale, then brown and build your gravy. After the sauce is finished, remove them, clean off and weigh again. The weight difference will be mostly the fat rendered into your sauce plus the brown bits. A good approximation.…

It's essentially a digital personal training system that paces you to attain a described personal goal, such as strength gain, muscle tone, etc. It comes with an ancillary food (fuel) program to help you eat right. It can be as demanding as you want, with computer controlled programs in a…

Each person's diet will vary, and judgements on sugars, trans fats may not be as meaningful or helpful to those trying to lose or gain weight.

  • Corinna, a calorie is a calorie isn't the point the dietitian is making, it's calorie utilization by type, and how your body metabolizes them. Nevertheless, calories are calories, and if you run a consistent metabolic deficit, you will lose weight.

Then call up Kokofit, take the calories burned for your Kokofit session (all exercises) under "Home" "My recent sessions" and the day's workout, whether strength or cardio workout. It gives you the time for the session, and the calories…
