I love the Channa Masala Recipe from the Oh She Glows book. It's a really good cookbook for those of you who want to do vegan meals or just want to cut out dairy (I'm lactose intolerant). It comes out to less than 400 calories per serving. I like eating this with Cauliflower Rice. It's filling and it's doesn't break the…

Almond Butter Spinach Smoothie 1 tablespoon almond butter 1 cup fresh spinach 1 cup unsweetened almond milk 1/2 ripe banana 1/4 cup frozen pineapple chunks Optional: 1 teaspoon chia seeds or 1 teaspoon flax…

I love rice!!! But..alas so many calories per cup. Cauliflower rice is an amazing substitute AND you can eat more of it! Cauliflower Tortillas are good too. I agree with people above about spaghetti squash, it's so good and you can do a lot with it!

I'm almost finished the C2K program on the treadmill but as soon as I started running outside it felt like I was close to the beginning of the program. I'm training for the Terry Fox 5K run in September so I'm going to start training outside permanently. Need motivation.

That sounds amazing! I will have to try that. I like oats too. They're quite filling. I like the Overnight Oatmeal with strawberries in the morning. Recipe: http://www.shebakeshere.com/2014/04/easy-yogurt-overnight-oats.html. As I'm lactose intolerant, I like to substitute yogurt with Vanilla Cultured Almond Yogurt and the…

Congrats on pulling through the tough times that you have endured! You are a strong woman and I admire you for it. I'm just basically starting my journey here on MFP and love reading these types of success stories, they push me to continue with my health goals.

All said was true but you don't want to eat all your allotted calories for the day (accounting for the deficit) with junk. You need vitamins, minerals, protein and fiber. Eat nutrient dense foods that will fill you up and will not make you feel hungry as soon as you're done eating. Here's a site that I always go to for…

Cut your noodles, place them on a clean dish towel and sprinkle with salt let sit for a while I normally do 15-30 minutes then gentle pat them with another clean towel or paper towel. then sautee or cook however you like. This will really help with the water that is released while cooking. I love makeing zucccini noodle…

In Canada we have a store called Kitchen Stuff plus where it's about $10CAD cheaper than what appears…

Yes I have. They're an amazing substitute for pasta. The only thing I hate about them is that they release too much water when cooked. Did you find that too?. I haven't tried cauliflower rice yet? I heard it's the same texture as couscous. I'm planning to try this soon. You have any recipes for cauliflower rice?
-
No problem!!! They are amazing. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have :D. Thank you for the add btw. I have just started on this site and decided to become more involved in the discussions and whatnot. It seems there is a whole community on this site that are very very motivational and supportive. Guess I wanted to be…

I'm currently on Week 2 Day 2 and I really feel like I'm accomplishing something. I have never been able to run for very long and this program seems to be easing me into it pretty well. I'm quite happy with my progress and this program. I'm excited for the day that I'm able to reach that 5K :). I agree about the shoes, I'm…
