  • can of tuna with an avocado, cherry tomatos, and some type of hard cheese and fruit
  • Mix kale, broccoli slaw, dried cherries/cranberries and grilled chicken together with a light dressing of choice.
  • You can make "refried beans" with zuchinni believe it or not. Saves lots of calories.

  • My doctor said that after surgery I can do what is comfortable for me (no pushups obviously). This is subjective, so I was hoping that someone had personal experiences, especially in the context of running. Nothing more than that. Just as a nicety, it would be nice if people wouldn't treat posters like they are idiots.…
  • feta and greek yogurt dip (yogurt ,mashed feta, olive oil, rice wine vinegar and hot pepper) feta and eggs feta and shrimp pizzettes feta plain I love feta!!
  • I think you already have!! We all ask ourselves that question, which is the first step to confirming that we know how much better we feel when we eat right, regardless of CICO. Nice to see you back!
  • Sliced gouda, eggs, organic spinach, organic tomatoes (canned), spray olive oil, peppered salami, black forest ham, center cut bacon, dog treats (not for me--:))
  • No chocolate @eve70! What is the world coming to? I definitely would have paired it with your strawberries and cream! Have a good weekend all!
  • I've been doing pretty good this week. My eating has been about 95% which has made me feel a lot better. Additionally, I started a new weightlifting program. I haven't lifted 'consistently' for awhile, so this it was about time for me to start scheduling the days in. I did upper body on Monday and my arms are pretty sore…
  • First off, great job starting!!! I can only speak from my experience, so here goes. I personally have always been big. When I say that, I mean that even at my lightest weight when I was in the military and in 100% great shape, I still always have fallen on the high side of the BMI chart. For this reason, and probably…
  • I like cucumbers and celery (as eve70 already recommended). You can make your own crackers, I've found this one to be okay: https://www.lowcarbmaven.com/crispy-almond-sesame-crackers/ I also like paleo foccoccia. I have tried a couple recipes, and this is the one I like best:…
  • Weekends are just hard overall for me too. Sometimes in the eating department, but in the actual 'get up and do things and be more active' department. Unfortunately, I am one of those people that just hates going and doing stuff on the weekend....I need time to myself to unplug from the week. This keeps me more sedentary…
  • Grinded cashews with paprika a little cayenne and nutritional yeast
  • @acpgee that tomato salad looks so good right now (and the wine)!!!
  • This afternoon I made fish tacos for lunch/dinner. Topped them with avocado, homemade coleslaw and cilantro-jalepeno sauce. Yummy!! @eve70 --- you didn't blow it at all! We all do this from time to time, just jump back to 80/20 90/10 as soon as you can.
  • @eve70, you're doing great!!! I need to start religiously doing squats before bed. You give me so much motivation!!! Hope everyone is geared to have a good weekend. I am a little tired today and haven't been hungry this morning, which is odd. I need to up my protein for dinner tonight, and am going to have roasted cod and…
  • It's great to see new people on here!! Let's keep each other motivated!!
  • I like making waffles with it, then topping with fresh fruit compote. This post reminded me I had this in my pantry and now I want waffles or pancakes!!
  • I'm cranky today!!! On another note, I made Instant Pot Korean BBQ spare ribs with broccoli and cabbage coleslaw for lunch. I ate two of the ribs (smaller side about 4 oz of meat), a small side of coleslaw, and I cheated and had some fingerling mashed potatoes (about 1/4 cup). I have been feeling very dizzy lately (almost…
  • This stuff is pretty good. I'm not a paleo hater like most though.
  • Minced shallots, white balsamic vinegar, olive oil & honey to taste
  • I use kelp noodles, mountain yam noodles (shirataki ) or zoodles. I like the kelp and yam noodles best in pho, but sometimes can't get to the Asian grocery (i.e., plan ahead).
  • @eve70 - Here is to grazing, eating chocolate and yoga---and steak burgers!! Everyone have a great day!!
  • Thanks @stevphi01. I think that there is something different going on. Going to wait one more day to see if it improves after my next dose and then go in for routine check up if I still feel funny.
  • Today has been good. Breakfast & Lunch (grazer that I am at the office): Avocado, mini heirloom tomatoes with cucumbers, kalamata olives and 1 oz of real feta cheese, 1 hard-boiled egg, 3 ounces cantaloupe, 4 strawberries, 4 oz homemade greek yogurt with 1 tbsp of raw honey Dinner: Sheet pan Korean cod with broccoli,…
  • Welcome @HestiaMoon1!! I think we are starting to get some fun and cool people that don't trash each other for everything. Isn't that nice!!! I like how you 'sometimes nap instead'!! Yay!! Unplug, unwind, try to eat as whole - food (non-processed) as you can...that should be our little groups motto.
  • I love Nom Nom Paleo too! I like to cook, so I usually just wing most my main meals. I get Paleo magazine and like the recipes in there as well.
  • I can definitely tell when I am mostly/all paleo versus when I put any type of gluten/starch in me. I am a recovering (hehehe addict) carb-o-halic. Crackers, good bread---those are all are my triggers. If I have any, I tend to get seriously bloated, and feel kind of spacey. When I eat clean I do feel so much better. My…
  • So, terrible week!!! I was doing so well, then had guests come in from all over and hosted for a few days. I didn't eat that much, however I drank a lot of red wine, and took a few crackers here and there. I don't know if I am just overly tired, or carb crashing because of the wine, but all I want to do is sleep. Need to…
  • I'm posting this again from another thread because it was that good!! Coq au vin blanc (forgive the messy dish, I was drinking a *little* wine at the time of serving).
