Check out the 21 Day Tummy for some cool low-cal recipes. The foods are low in FODMAPs and have a lot of anti inflammatory properties. Overall, it spells out some cool ways to eat clean. The plan the book puts forth isn't quite as important as the food and recipes it presents for healthier options. This book, honestly,…

A walk and hot tea- I like that. So simple, eh? I can do that.

That's some interesting insight- knowing this might help me push through harder.

Hhahaha I LOVE THAT. Doin' it. This is EXACTLY what I was hoping for... a tactic I, literally, would have never considered, otherwise. Thanks for this :) lol

haha TRUST ME, I'm not perfect... but subbing wherever I can has actually changed my tastebuds quite a bit, and I've been able to completely steer clear of some of the things I used to eat in abundance. And I don't even miss them. LIKE bread and cookies and pancakes, super sweet ice cream, chocolate bars, waffles etc. And,…

Great suggestions- I was afraid I wouldn't be able to give up all my baked goods and sweets (like ice cream etc.) too, but I've actually gotten REALLY good at making a few things that have totally replaced my need for the guilty pleasures I used to indulge in, on occasion... making my "cheats" indulgent BUT TOTALLY…

Sometimes Walmart has Quinoa pasta or black bean pasta. Both are, literally, just one ingredient. OR you could try chinese white rice vermicilli.

Solution = puffed quinoa + melted coconut oil + dark cocoa powder + a little bit of melted peanut butter + chia and ground flaxseed. Add a bit of maple syrup, if it's not sweet enough. Mix it up and roll it into little balls, like a healthy, tasty rice crispy treat :smiley:

The goal here is to get ideas and see if there are some creative BUT HEALTHY substitutions I haven't thought of yet. More just hoping to brainstorm and get inspired by whatever you guys have to offer :) Some of my favourites, obviously with discretion because some substitutions just don't work for every recipe: -greek…

Green tea with honey and a slice of ginger is, seriously, incredibly delicious. Replace the honey with maple syrup if you can, because it's high in magnesium which is great for inflammation. Start reading about foods with anti-inflammatory properties and reach for things high in magnesium wherever you can ;) I use…

Stuff dates with walnuts- loaded with fibre and other good things, but they are a bit high in sugar, so only have 3 when you're snacky :) My other favs include: -cheese string -almonds -baby carrots and homemade (added-salt free) hummus or tapenade -olives and/or pickles -a single small banana -gf oats with flax, chia and…

I LOVE fine dining and have a passion for baking- I'm trying to lose weight and augment my health without denying my sweet tooth, so I've begun to experiment with baking and cooking substitutes. I'm also a limited-ingredient kind of girl, so I'm hoping to find support and suggestions from this app. I know I stand to learn…

Without looking at the recipe more closely, I will just say that I tend to use maple syrup and raw mashed bananas as sugar substitutes, coconut oil in place of butter and definitely greek yogurt instead of sour cream. You might even be able to use greek yogurt for half of the cream cheese too OR puree light cottage cheese…
