I am celiac so I'm absolutely gluten free, but I am also on a low FODMAP diet. Gluten free: (1) I found that I need to stay away from the cheaper gf products, but Three Bakers has a very tasty bread - pricy but worth having a loaf in the freezer. Rice noodles make good spaghetti, but make your own sauce. (3) Beware "mixed"…

I'm in. This sound like something I can and need to do the challenge will make it FUN. First plank on Saturday, July 1.

To continue (cat stepped on post reply), . . . dietary problems, I'm looking to get back in shape so I can see my abs and triceps again. I'm really looking for a buddy to help work through these dietary changes while building some muscle and losing the fluff.

HI, Barry, I'm older - in body if not in mind - answer I'm vegan simply because I seem to be allergic to everything that is not vegan. Plus I can't eat gluten / wheat, oats, or broccoli / cruciferous veggies. As a result it's hard to get enuf protein. I'm now 67, but a only a few years ago I was pretty fit. Now that ive…

I haven't weighed for a couple of days, and I just got around to logging my food. But I have been busting my a%% for the few days doing long overdue housework. And I am tired enuf and sore enuf to prove it. Tomorrow I'm going to drag myself to the gym for some tough rehab love - rotator cuff muscles, hip flexors, and core.…

Starting weight = 239.5 Current weight = 237 Goal weight = 229 Too bad this quick loss won't keep up. But it feels good for the first few days.

I have polycystic kidney disease with a normal (for me) blood creatinine of 1.1 -1.5; BUN is steady at 26 - 30. When I take creatine the week before I go in for labs, my creatinine shoots up to 2+ and my nephrologist gets all excited. Nephrologist and I talked and the solution was just to stop taking the creatine for 7-10…

I take 5 grams creatine each day. Because of allergy problems, I'm on a pretty restricted vegetarian diet. The supplementation with creatine has really made me feel better and replaced all that natural creatine I'd normally get from meat. As a note, if you have kidney disease, stop the creatine about a week before you go…

All things in moderation, including moderation. It's the moderation part I struggle with.

Starting weight: 239.5 Current weight: 238 Goal weight: 229 Yesterday I abused my self in the garden and today I'm sore. Pathetic. I hate gardening, but it is an evil necessity. I'm now going to have my coffee and go for a 1 mile walk - helpfully measured on the greenbelt.

I found a super cheap mp3 player on amazon with a slot for a big SD card. It's so tiny I just slip it in the side of my brain and run the cord up under the shoulder strap. BTW the player is about the size of a poker chip - really tiny.

Absolutely. You can be technically vegan and still eat junk food. I am certainly not following a WFPB diet for ethical reasons, but that doesn't keep me from reaping the health benefits of eating WFPB. I would cheerfully eat a huge porterhouse steak, but the aftereffects just wouldn't be worth it.

I agree absolutely. My dietary choices were made by necessity, but the benefits you list are right on. I've also noticed that my joints and tendons aren't as "achy" anymore.

I'm in. Current weight 239.5 Goal weight 229 Exercise: Walking, circuit training, gardening

I switched to a version of the WFPB (whole foods plant based) diet about a month ago after finding out I'm allergic to everything. So my diet is gluten-free, no dairy, vegan, low FODMAP diet. I went through a month of severe whining about how abused I felt, but that phase is pretty much done with. Because my diet is so…
