  • There are some great suggestions here. If you feel like you need a drink with a "fizzy feeling", you could try something like club soda and add lemon, lime or whatever you want to enhance the flavour. I'm not personally a soda fan but I do this to switch things up when I feel like something other than water, which is what…
  • My usual go to is chia pudding. 2 tbsp chia seeds + liquid of choice (I use plain 5% greek yogurt) + tsp cinnamon mixed together and stored overnight. In the morning, I top it with whatever fruit I have on hand, sometimes I add nuts or a nut butter. There are lots of variations and it's easy. Another easy one I like is…
  • The Morningstar Black Bean burger is pretty good, sometimes I get them from Costco. I prefer to make a burger using a nice portobello mushroom cap :)
  • By planning ahead carefully, usually on Sundays. Sometimes I make something that can stretch far like a hearty vegetarian chilli in the crockpot, and other times I do not necessarily make a specific meal but rather make components of meals that can be thrown together in a quick five minutes. For instance, I will make a…
  • Check out https://budgetbytes.com/, if you haven't already. She's got some nice ideas on there.
  • The night before I like to add about 2 tbsp of chia seeds with plain greek yogurt + a tsp of cinnamon (there are lots of other things you can add in as well, such as cocoa powder, honey, etc.). In the morning, I re-stir it and then add nuts and berries on top. Keeps me full for a while and saves me time in the morning :)
  • I use a small amount of Silk vanilla coconut milk for coffee and do not add sugar/sweetener. I find it adds a creaminess and hits the spot :)
  • If it feels overwhelming, focus on one thing that helps you get back on track to start. Maybe this is moving a little more, maybe it's planning a healthy meal, whatever helps to make you feel more positive and confident in your choices. Then start adding more back your routine.
  • As per this article, it states that final payouts will be July 11 and users will be supported until end of August. I just put mine on break. mobihealthnews.com/content/khosla-backed-fitness-startup-pact-shuts-down
  • greek yogurt, tofu, hemp hearts, mushrooms, nuts, cheese, beans, lentils, eggs, fish, nut butters, chia seeds, it adds up throughout the day
  • Protein shake, overnight oats or overnight chia seeds, greek yogurt w/ granola and fruit, toast with peanut butter and banana and/or jam
  • Sweet potato hash. Roasted sweet potatoes, sauted kale amd black beans. Add whatever spices/oil you want. Buddha bowl (grain + fresh veggies + protein + whatever else you want to add. Lots of combinations you could make.
  • Hemp hearts are also a great source of protein (as well as fat and iron). You can add them to main dishes, smoothies, salads, etc.
  • This is a simple one I like to make (if you eat eggs) https://www.budgetbytes.com/2011/11/spinach-mushroom-feta-crustless-quiche/ Minimalist baker has a good recipe for making crispy tofu that is a staple in our household. We add roasted Brussel Sprouts, or a variety of roasted veggies for a fairly quick weeknight meal. We…
  • One of trend tracking tools you can use if you have an apple product is called Happy Scale. I just don't hit the button to complete my diary so the notification doesn't pop up. If nit completing it doesn't bother you, then it might help saves a bit of peace of mind.
  • I don't use that feature, so for me it's one less thing to worry about. The daily prediction isn't going to limit your progress unless you let it. I totally could see how it could be discouraging, maybe try not using it for a few days and see how you feel?
  • Beans, lentils, tofu, greens, hemp hearts, chia seeds help me reach my protein goal. I do include dairy so that helps too. Haven't needed a protein powder to supplement.
  • 4'10", my goal is 115 for now. I will re-evaluate once I get there and see how I feel.
  • I often work out at home, mix of strength and cardio. I like Jessica Smith, blogilates, dance fitness with Jessica, fitness Marshall and various yoga vids
  • Once soaked, they become soft and plump kind of like a tapioca pearl. You can add cocoa powder, cinnamon or other things to add to the overall taste. I have tried overnight oats previously but I prefer the texture of chia seeds personally.
  • I often do overnight chia seeds, 2-3 tbsp chia seeds soaked in a liquid of your choice (I use milk) and then topped with fruit and/or nuts/shredded coconut/dark chocolate, etc. I try to switch up the toppings so I don't get bored.
  • You could invest in a food saver, depending on your budget. We do this when we need to meal prep more in advance- seals it in a plastic bag airtight and I find the texture/taste to be enjoyable once thawed or reheated. It's not necessary but might be something to look into if interested.

  • Last time I made them, I blended 1/2 cup coconut oil with 2 tbsp of honey and 1/4 cup of cocoa powder.
