  • Same breakfast I have every morning, 50 grams of Special K Strawberry & Dark Chocolate with 100 ml soy milk -- keeps me full for awhile, and lets me have something sweet in the morning so I'm not craving sweets all day!
  • Yesss, and I'll finally get that thigh gap :lol:
  • Chicken fajitas is what I use to get when I went out for Mexican! It's generally a lot of veggies and some chicken with maybe some salsa and guac on the side, served with some tortillas. I would generally eat half at the restaurant and bring half home for lunch the next day! Just make sure to skip the sour cream if you…
  • Hey, vegan here! Well, off and on vegan - I eat vegan about 90% of the time but then I find myself eating a non-vegan meal about two or three times a month. So hardcore vegans would probably challenge me but I'm happy with it :smiley: Add me, I could also use a fellow motivator!
  • My tips is to avoid "diet" foods and really focus on learning how to cook healthy, unprocessed foods. I'm not saying you couldn't lose weight eating nothing but processed diet foods, but I feel like weight loss became much easier once I focused on buying raw, unprocessed ingredients and making my own meals. That way you…
  • I think the clothes can be hit or miss at places -- like one place may sell good sports bras but crappy leggings, the other place will be vice versa, etc.! I got a pair of amazing workout leggings from H&M that I live by. My poor leggings from Target & Walmart never get any workout time because I'm always in those H&M…
  • @Abbie918 Hello! Workaholics are my type of people! I'm all about striving to be better, whether its with my diet or at work :smile:
  • I've been vegan for a few months know (with some mistakes here and there) and let me just say to those who are trying it -- just keep going! It gets easier! As for thielke2015 - you can easily go vegan without eating too many carbs :smile: I'm regularly under my carb limit.
  • Hey I'm an anemic vegan (well, not so anemic now because I'm doing well with my iron) so I understand the iron thing -- I'm sure you know what's best for your body but I just wanted to let you know that getting enough iron without meat is totally possible! Here's some ideas: http://www.vrg.org/nutrition/iron.php As for…
  • I travel a lot, and I found a good way to save some calories while still trying the local eats is splitting food as much as possible. For example, if my boyfriend and I go out we split almost everything -- if we want to try some fish and chips we get the smallest portion and then split it, that way we both get to try it…
  • Oh man, I feel you! I've always been a big shopper and I still have a ton of clothes that I refuse to get rid of because I'm determined to fit into them once again! Here's to fitting into our skinny clothes :blush:
  • Fellow student here - in the first year of my MSc! I just added you :smiley:
  • Congrats on finishing your first year! My advice - really learn how to cook (if you don't already know how)! And I'm not saying know how to scramble and egg or put together processed ingredients to get a meal. I mean know how to take a bunch of raw ingredients, some spices (or in my case, lots of spices,) and make…

  • I have to disagree with the screw the calories during exams sentiment. When I know I'm going to have a busy schedule coming up (I'm work towards my masters, I work, and I'm working on learning a new language so it happens often) I make it a point to schedule in some healthy cooking time before the busy period. For example,…
  • Working towards my MSc in Environmental Science - concentrating in Ecosystems & Biodiversity and Natural Resource Management!
