Breakfast- egg scrambled with leftover stuffing, leftover turkey, cheese, and milk, coffee Lunch- Wild rice salad made with black rice, celery, mushrooms, leftover turkey, pomegranate seeds, homemade vinaigrette Dinner- lemon soup made with leftover turkey, black rice, leeks, parsley, egg yolks Snack- probably a little…

Trying so hard to kill Thanksgiving leftovers. Breakfast- 1 egg scrambled with 1/4 c homemade stuffing, 1 oz turkey, 2 tb milk and 2 tb shredded cheese, a little mashed potato on the side, coffee Lunch- quesadilla made with 2 wheat tortillas, 1/4 c reduced fat cheddar, 2 oz turkey, about 2 oz of leftover brussel sprouts…

Roasted cauliflower 'steaks' (basically cut the cauliflower into thick slices) with olive tapenade is so good and I usually don't like olives. Can't remember where the tapenade recipe came from but I think most recipes would be veggie and gluten free.

My experience with home juicing taught me that I do not want to clean a juicer every single day, or ever.

You gave advice on how to lower to ketogenic carb intake even though OP did not mention wanting to go keto. Bringing it up, even if you aren't specifically 'recommending' it, is a way to suggest it would be a good idea. You may want to reflect on why you are so often having to walk back your statements after others point…

So if someone wins a lot of money playing scratch off lotto cards they shouldn't add that money to their budget?

Costco for certain things that are staples for me, Aldi for dry goods, Sprouts for fresh items and dry goods I couldn't find at Aldi.

I've gone to Costco to buy only cat litter and beer, I'm sure other people made assumptions about my life that are 100% correct! Costco really is the premium spot for weird carts. Once I saw three different people with 4+ massive bottles of fish oil in their carts. It was on sale but it wasn't THAT good of a sale.

The only time I think about what other people buy is when there's really odd combos/quantities of stuff. Like at Costco when I saw a young smiley couple checking out with one of those giant flat cart things filled with at least a dozen gallons of Clorox bleach, and several cases of water and gatorade. The only thing I…

I just switched to Apple Watch from a Fitbit. I think if you are completely new to exercise, aren't sure what data you want and have never owned a tracker before, Fitbit is a better choice because it tracks everything into one spot out of the box. My Fitbit dashboard had steps, workouts, sleep information, calorie burn,…

As usual your advice is irresponsible. If the diet advice in this book is so awesome, why would it be a bad thing to check in with your doctor first before starting it? There are glucose-lowering medications other than insulin that would need to be considered when drastically cutting carbs and I doubt this book goes into…

Do not do keto without talking to a doctor or RD first, it can be dangerous to do keto while taking medications that lower blood sugar. In fact speaking with a dietician if possible is probably a good idea because you do have special dietary considerations.

Be careful researching this as lot of anti-soy information comes from the Weston A. Price Foundation, a quack nutrition organization that has a bizarre hate for soy. My understanding is if you already have hypothyroid it is good to limit soy but it won't cause hypothyroid in a healthy person. I've never heard of…

Consuming too much potassium can be very dangerous. You can end hospitalized or dead, that's why over the counter potassium supplements have such a low dose they're basically useless. You're much better off eating a varied diet and being mindful of including some potassium rich foods.

If the mess is a major issue for you look into one pot meals. I find I make less mess cooking with a food scale, because it's a lot easier to put a mixing bowl on the scale and weigh out ingredients directly into the bowl rather than dirtying 100 measuring utensils to do the same thing.

Breakfast- apple and peanut butter, coffee Lunch- Sargento balanced breaks tray and a little rotisserie chicken Dinner- Turkey burger on a bun, bagged kale and brussel sprout salad kit on the side Snacks- Pomegranate seeds, maybe some hot chocolate

Nvm, didn't see the date.

If you don't like it because you don't like sweet breakfasts savory oatmeal is really good. I'll mix in some soy sauce, a little cheese and top it with salsa and a fried egg. You can also do this with grits.

I tried it and got so bored with my meals and felt miserable. My grocery bill went through the roof too because your only calorie-dense food is meat (fruit and potatoes are allowed but you're not supposed to overdo those). I tried it as a 'reset' to help my tastes change but it just made me want bread more tbh.

I haven't gone off hormonal bc before but I have gone off of antidepressants than are infamous for having bad withdrawal side effects. I was completely fine. The only people who go out of their way to share their experiences going off of medications are those who had really bad experiences because 'I stopped taking it and…

I make a recipe using the recipe builder, weighing ingredients as I cook. I have a little notepad so I can write down the weight of things like produce (logging 200 grams onion instead of 1 large onion etc). I make the entire recipe one serving. Then after I'm done cooking, I weight the entire finished recipe and create a…

Blue Bell's seasonal flavors are out and I picked this one up today. 200 calories for 1/2 cup is a little higher than I like for ice cream but ohmygodsoworthit.

I won't eat any other cinnamon roll thing but those bites are so good. They're more like the cream puff version of a churro.

Pepsi is better than Coke.

Cinnamon buns and danishes are gross. The only good cinnamon bun-adjacent food is the cinnabon bites from Taco Bell.

WHO has a tier system to rank carcinogens and possible carcinogens based on the quality and quantity of evidence, things don't get put on the list just because of one study showing a correlation. I believe processed meats have the highest ranking (very good evidence of being a carcinogen) and red meat is a step below (very…

Afaik metformin does not help or hinder weight loss. Honestly, I think you need to relax, let go of the PCOS self-diagnosis for a little while, and focus on continuing a calorie deficit and logging accurately using a food scale etc. as others have suggested. You've already lost 40 pounds and found that your symptoms…

If you post the diet plan here I bet people would be able to help estimate the fat/protein breakdown. It sounds like you're going to a medical weight loss clinic, not trying to treat any particular disease with this diet, so they probably gave you a very high protein diet.
