  • That's really creepy/scary!
  • I also receive a lot of spam for these services... If I ate meat maybe I'd try it but the vegetarian options don't seem to be worth it. It looks like they charge you like $10 just for some cous-cous and veggies (and no protein)? For that price I would just get take out and not have to worry about preparation. However, I do…
  • With a spoon. I usually season it with pepper and sometimes I'll put tahini with hot sauce in the middle where you take the pit out
  • not worth it because chia pudding is gross
  • My favorite it Bob's Red Mills brand -- yes the same brand that does the gluten free flour but they make great plant-based protein powder. It's tasty and affordable, there are chocolate, vanilla and chai flavors as well as an unflavored version I believe? It has probiotics, chia seeds, and iron as well as 20g protein per…
  • If you're actually 5'11'' then yeah, you're taller than the vast majority of women, but based on your insecurity Imma guess you're a LOT shorter than that lmao
  • TIL the taller person is automatically "in charge" of the relationship.
  • My former roommate had a keurig that I used to use sometimes and honestly it wasn't that convenient? I have a regular "mr coffee" maker now and it takes about 5 seconds to put two table spoons into the filter and exactly the same amount of time to make the coffee. You can just make one or two cups you don't have to make…
  • Is a breakfast smoothie healthy? When I make smoothies they have protein and calcium in them (both of which are usually lacking in my diet), or else I'll drink them instead of eating a pint of ice cream, so I find them to usually be a healthy choice for me. Whether they're good for you depends on what nutrition you need,…
  • This is an anti-disappointment, but when I forget to pack lunch I'll get a muffin at the coffee shop I go to, or if I'm feeling like a fat looser I'll get a cinnamon roll. They recently started posting their calories and their muffins (my "healthier" option) have over 700 calories! Their delicious, giant cinnamon rolls on…
  • It's weird because to do a credit report you need a lot of personal info like former addresses, possibly SS number... I wouldn't give that away to someone I hadn't met. Also, asking for proof of financial valor would probably be looked down on because dating someone "just" for their money is usually socially unacceptable,…
  • I don't know anything about liposuction, but she's correct in that you can't lose your fat-storing cells. Ideally, you're not supposed to gain them either -- you have a certain amount and they get bigger or smaller depending on how much you eat. A big concern with childhood/teenage obesity is that young people are actually…
  • There's a difference between pushing a cart down the street and hiking multiple miles in inclement weather through unsafe neighborhoods (uphill both ways) My point is that food deserts are a well documented and studied problem in the US. Just because something's not an issue for you doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
  • It's definitely NOT blown out of proportion. Not having a car can make even a couple of miles insurmountable. I currently live in a city and rely on public transport. Technically there are many grocery stores within a five mile radius but all require at least a mile of walking. It's very time consuming so I can't go every…
  • I think there is the problem, not necessarily in OP's case but pertaining to eating healthy while under the poverty line, where what people think is affordable is actually extremely far from being affordable. For example, in my search for budget friendly recipes I've come across so many food blogs that consider $10 a day…
  • I buy frozen vegetables, they're usually pretty cheap, easy to prepare because no pealing or chopping is necessary, and you don't have to worry about them going bad! (most of my fresh veggies go bad before I eat them.) I'm in the US and a pound bag of frozen veggies (all kinds) is usually $2-$3, and you can also get them…
  • Sorry to triple post but I got my wisdom teeth out last year and the healing sucked :( But the skin on my gums had grown over within a month, at which point it was much better. So just remember that the more you stay within the limits of the recommended diet the faster you will heal! Good luck!
  • Also macchiatos are BOGO this weekend at starbucks!
  • black just like my metal
  • Hm, this is so interesting! I forgot that I make my own salad dressings, mostly because it's simple enough and allows for variation so you don't eat the same boring salad every day. I always buy canned beans because I can't be bothered to soak them. @brewerfan13 easy mac is awesome! plus there are endless variations, like…
  • Why don't you want to use supplements? What is a "natural food item"? Vegetarian diets are not "natural" for humans, most choose them because of ethical reasons and because in first world countries we are privileged to have a huge variety of food options, including plants that are unnaturally grown out of season. You said…
  • I make smoothies with almond milk a lot... just almond milk, frozen fruit of choice and a scoop of plant-based protein powder. Would you be willing to share your recipe for overnight quinoa? That sounds healthy and good! edit: almond milk is great in granola or other cereal and if you get it unsweetened you can use it like…
  • Hi, I eat about 1300 per day, I hate cooking and cleaning/washing dishes, so I usually eat one big meal in the early afternoon (about 900 calories) and whenever else I'm hungry I'll munch on a banana, some yogurt, or chips or something. It's important to find a meal plan that works for you and works with your schedule!
  • The one time I went to cheesecake factory the food was pretty gross. It was greasy and seemed to have been frozen and then fried. We had mac and cheese bites I think as an appetizer and I had a veggie grilled cheese. Bread was stale and fries were flavorless. Would not recommend any of those things. Maybe I'm a food snob.…
  • Yes, she chooses to stay for some reason she's not telling you. Nor does she need to. It's her life, not yours. Due to differences in personality and various life situations, you shouldn't expect all your friends to serve the same functions. That doesn't mean that you can't still talk or have the occasional lunch/coffee…
  • Really? because i remember teachers not allowing students to eat during class unless they brought enough to "share with everyone." Granted that wasn't in first grade... Of course pop tarts and other sweets can be a part of a healthy kid's diet, but not all foods are appropriate to eat in all situations. School can be fun…
  • So I know I'm on the 12th page of comments so someone has probably already brought this up and also I'm probably going to get hate for siding with the teacher, but my two cents is that the teacher has to deal with your kid all day. A lot of kids, when they gorge on sugary foods go crazy, can't focus, have too much energy.…
