Sent you a FR. I’m also new to the group. I started perimenopausing at 35 and was done by 42. I’m 54 now and been on HRT since age 46 when bone density results came back with osteopenia. I gained 30 pounds when I was in the thick of it (no pun intended). Used MFP to get on track and maintained for the most part. But fat…

Sent you a friend request!!!

I started as a vegetarian seven years ago, and switched to vegan about four years ago. I’m 54! My husband is vegan, and so is my daughter. And she converted her boyfriend, who is now vegan too! Add me! My diary is open!

Hey fellow veggies! I’m also 100% plant based. Can’t say vegan since it still have several leather items, but I try to shop vegan as much as possible. I cook all the time and like to try new recipes. I don’t have much weight to lose but you can friend me if you’d like. My diary is open and I post pictures too.

When you say “poor muscle tone” are you meaning muscle hypotonia with gross motor skills delay? Because this can change a few things. You may need the assistance of a physiotherapist to come up with a program that will be more manageable for him... best of luck!

My diary is open. I’m 100% plant based though and I snack all day :blush: Add me if you’d like.

Me too! I would like to lose the ten I have gained since covid lockdown started! Feeling like a bit of a lump these days. I eat healthy but I eat too much. I like cooking and baking which is becoming a problem Lol! My pants are getting tight now :neutral:

I am completely off my normal exercise routine. I have chronic pain from a genetic bone and joint condition and it is a very fine balance of activity that I can manage without making myself worse. I normally swim a few days a week since it’s the thing that hurts me the least. But now that pools are closed I am left with…

I second 100% hemp powder. Pretty simple stuff (just hemp) and not too expensive. Hopefully you can get it at a health food store or online.

Wow! Great recipes! That is the same gochujang recipe as I made last night! It was amazing. Here is the photo!

I’ve thought about an air fryer but I haven’t ever tried anything cooked in one, so I’ve been hesitant to purchase. Do the sprouts come out kind of baked/grilled when using no oil? I like mine sprouts baked the broiled with lemon juice, thyme and maple syrup!

Sounds delicious. Too funny about figuring out what veggies are which on either side of the pond! I have a cookbook from the UK that stumped me for a while. It asked for courgette, aubergine and swedes!

I’m with you on curries! I find cauliflower pairs perfectly with curry, potatoes and carrots. I think I just might make that with my giant cauliflower! Thanks!

Ok this sounds amazing. Are you using artichokes in oil or fresh ones?

My spouse uses that hemp protein powder almost daily. He likes it. Sometimes I sprinkle hemp seeds on my salads. So what’s a Patti? You mean like a vegetable pulp patty fried up or something?

I don’t have mushroom soup mix but I do have mushrooms and onions! Maybe with some soy sauce it would be nice. I’m hesitant to put in garam masala, but maybe a little might work! Thanks!

Hi, I lost 30 lbs five years ago using MFP and my calorie goal was 1400 for pretty much the entire time (about ten months). I’ve maintained my same weight (+/- 3 lbs) for the last four years by being active and more mindful about what I’m eating. However now that we are in lockdown COVID-19 mode, I find that I’m snacking a…
