Coffee mixed with sugar free cocoa mix, 2 pieces of Sara Lee "delightful" multi grain bread with 15grams of cream cheese, and sprinkled with Dash "SW chipotle" salt free seasoning, and a protein shake.

I am a fan of Designer Whey. I like the Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry. I also prefer the ones made with animal proteins. The vegetarian ones always have a strong taste of PEA from the pea protein they use.

That's cool how you did the math. Thank you.

I have an appointment with a physical therapist that is supposed to introduce me to some lower body exercises including using a machine leg press. Right now I have to admit the idea scares the *kitten* out of me because if I fall I have to call the fire department or get a bunch of stout people to lift me up. So again…

Salads and Sandwiches from Subway™ are my go to because they still have the most vegetable options. That said if you're needing something greasy and bad for you McDonald's Unsweet iced tea, and a McDouble is less than 500 calories and less than 4 dollars(2.25 for burger 1.50 for the iced tea) where I live. IMHO pretty darn…

Thank you for your response. I do enjoy it. I don't have much going on, and going to the gym gets me out of the house. I like my gym except i guess its not cool. I go to Planet Fitness. I enjoy swimming more because of my injuries and limitations, but the public pools don't have a way to get me out of the water in a…

You're welcome. I hope you try it, and like it. Thanks for the compliment!

i didn't do Halloween this year because I can't have that much candy in the house. I am just not strong enough. Yeah I cut back on beer really quickly after I started logging it. 130-200 calories for 12 oz was an eye opener. Rather spend those calories on cheese for my burger. But I do have one once in awhile. Just have to…

I so get this one. I have some nut mix that is so yummy I have to hide it and forget about it.

How cool is that. I'd love to take up rollerskating, but I am afraid if I fall at my weight it could be very injurious.

When I am short protein I am a big fan of hard boiled eggs, and Ensure MAx Protein™.

I make 4 dozen meat balls(3 lbs of ground meat) then throw them on a tray and freeze them. Next day I bundle them up into 4oz portions and vac seal.

Done both lost weight with both. But found Mediterranean to be easier to follow, tastier, and easier to dine out with.

I am not the OP but I found this information very helpful. Never ever thought about those little fruit cups.

I use frozen "Cherry Berry Blend" it is strawberries, cherries, and blueberries from Walmart and add it to oatmeal. 1 serving of the frozen "cherry berry blend" 70 calories 1 serving rolled oats(I use Bob's Redmill) 190 calories 1 serving organic coconut sugar 40 calories 1/2 serving Bob's Redmill Flaxseed Meal 35 calories…

Very cool thanks for the recipe.

Today was push it day. Normally I go about 45 minutes to an hr. Today I went an hr and 20 minutes. at this point I am just trying to get in a minimum of 45 minutes of exercise. 6 sets 12 reps of the following Triceps push down(cable) Bench press(machine) Back row(machine) Chest Fly(machine) Bicep Curl(free weight/machine)…

Seasoned baked chicken(Air fryer), and Greek yogurt based coleslaw.

Thanks!

if you want I can give you my recipe for a pizza quesadilla, comes in under 300 calories.

My cheat days have basically come down to staying within calorie goals, but less healthy food if that makes sense. For example I know I am going tailgating this weekend. I am not going to worry about having a couple of hot dogs and beers. I won't go over my calorie allotment, but yeah that hot dog is going to have chili…

For energy I found exercise helpful. When I first started all I did was 15 minutes on a upper body machine. And slowly I started to feel better and get stronger. So if you can exercise do so. Food wise what helped me was going low sugar(processed), and getting more protein. I am also a fan of volume/density eating(lots of…

My exercises are pretty standard and redundant. My hips/knees are shot from osteo-A so I only do upper body stuff. I got to gym 3 days a week at my current level. Hope to go to 4/5 days a week as I get stronger. 15-20 minutes on upper body recumbent hand cycle: Level 5.5 on a scale of 1-10. 5 sets curls(barbells and/or…

I was kind of like you in the fact I didn't know what to put together. It was a lot of trial and error. I found YouTube helpful. I looked up low sugar recipes, keto recipes, recipes for obese people trying to lose weight etc. Here's a go to for me for a lunch. Maybe you'll find it useful... 1/3 cup full fat Greek yogurt 2…

Started at 462 OFFICIALLY, need to get down to 265-275 to have surgery says the orthopedist. I imagine a lot of that weight was water weight. I was put on a diuretic when diagnosed with diabetes along with metformin which has wiped my appetite.

WTG and stuff. I hope to post something similar in a few months. :)
-
Yep. I am allowed 1800 calories a day. Sometimes it is picture perfect healthy foods. Some days it is a 1 meal day I have 3 Big Macs and a coke.

[quote="neanderthin;c-47711074 Right, yeah nuts and seeds on a caloric level higher in fat and should be the focus on a macro level. For example my go to nuts are almonds, cashews, hazel and brazil. Almonds are low carb with a low 20% of calories and high in fat around 50% and decent protein of around 20%, perfect for a…
