If I saw palmini pasta, i'd prob give it a try if only to compare it to shirataki pasta. It looks like it's generally canned -- I'll see if wholefoods has it. I like mixing alternate noodles with bean based pasta just to increase the volume.

I get around 8500 steps in an hour. Currently i'm usually wearing both an apple watch and a fitbit charge 2 (on different wrists), and they tend to vary by less than 1k steps (although the calorie burn reported by each is very different, with the apple watch reporting low calorie consumption compared to the fitbit -- the…

I thought I was the only one who ate that combo. I think it's sort of odd too, but I really like it (usually with the petite sweet potatos -- big ones like japanese sweet potatoes I have plain).

Can you really taste it in a smoothie (without putting like 400+ calories worth of pb in)? Or do you use something like pb2 instead to cut the calories by de-fatting it.

I think (for any woe) if it's practitioners don't claim things that are untrue and stick to either opinions or facts actually supported by the balance of scientific evidence, nobody (or very few people) has an issue. It's when they make claims not supported by science that they push as fact that people disagree. This goes…

I like basic smoothies. Just water, protein powder, greens powder, frozen strawberries, banana, and silken tofu

Do you crave foods you don't like the taste of, though, which would be a key benchmark for carb addiction being real? If you're only craving hyper-palatable foods that have some carbs in them, that's not really a carb addiction.

Yeah, i've had the vegan variety a bunch. Not very filling, but I really like the taste.

They are made by either abc bakers or little brownie bakery, depending on what region you ordered them from. They are different depending on which baker baked them, as well (little brownie bakers are the more common chocolate covered ones, with abc being more minty and not chocolate coated).

Dawn is animal tested, so would be an inappropriate detergent to clean your protein for vegans :smile:

I believe the exercise minutes you showed is done via hr thresholds. For walking, it doesn't make much of a difference, though, and certainly mfp still credits the activity for me.

I'm a volume eater, so high volumes of calorically sparse foods are usually what keeps me satiated. Fats do nothing for me, I can eat thousands of calories of fats, and still be hungry (same holds true for protein).

I love Dr. Berg...when i'm playing woo bingo.

I've done 2 2-3 week diet breaks (usually when hunger levels are pretty high and stay that way for multiple weeks and i've been dieting for 6mo+). I feel like it helped a lot, and returned me to near normal. I do tend to eat on a very slight surplus when I diet break, though, so around 1.5lb of fat gain was expected but…

This video was useful to me when I first failed at making tofu taste good (I still prefer seitan as a protein source, though). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhQqfw8UAUY

Dark Chocolate with Forest Mint chocolate bar. I need it for the dietary fat...that's my story, i'm sticking to it.

Ah. Vega one is the closest thing to a meal replacement shake i've used, and it has around 20g of protein (but they don't market it as a meal replacement product, even though nutritionally it's pretty similar to meal replacement products).

I usually eat this way. However, it's not a diet, and i'd only recommend it if you aren't really that hungry during the times of your fasting period, and really like bigger meals during the times of your feeding period. There's nothing particularly special about it, though, other than being able to have larger meals and/or…

Around 170 (I weigh a little bit over 180 currently).

At 12g of protein for 110 calories, the protein seems really low.

maybe you're not in a caloric deficit, which is the only thing that matters for fat loss (first 2 weeks is usually just water, not fat).

Yeah, I loved the episode about Jeong Kwan

myfitnesspal uses neat and not tdee, so you should eat your workout calories unless you have specifically opted to use an external tdee calculator (tdee includes workouts in calories it gives you, while neat does not).

I like natural peanut butter (smuckers is just peanuts and a bit of salt, and is widely available) but I don't think I eat any more or less of it, and I always weigh it. I like the taste, but I primarily use it as a good tasting source of dietary fat, which I'm often on the lower side of. I also use dark chocolate as a…

I feel like keto has the psychological advantage of minimizing at least some of the scale variances due to water retention. However, in terms of fat loss, all calorie deficits are basically equivalent.

Veganism isn't a diet.

Veganism is as expensive as you make it. Dry beans are probably the cheapest food available, and frozen non-organic vegetables aren't very expensive. If you buy a ton of pre-packaged things, than the cost goes up, and if you buy a ton of fresh organic fruits and vegetables the cost can go up. I don't usually use flour, but…

I have a body+ from nokia which I really like, but given the fact that there's always rumors hinting that they might exit that business, it's hard to really recommend someone buy one. It's a little bit more than you said you wanted, anyways.

search for usda avacado and you should find one measured in grams, and use that entry. I think 3.3 oz is around 94g which would be around 150C.

Around 1650 net calories.
