  • Okay, my two cents....I would suggest upping your protein intake and trying to keep your simple carbs down - try small amounts of lean meats, a boiled egg, even a protein powder if you need to. Protein with every meal and snack, combined with a complex carb (a boiled egg + an apple, or a tin of plain tuna in springwater +…

  • Agreed. I became vegetarian about a year ago and relied heavily on soy based foods. Within 6 months I actually thought I was hitting early menopause, my cycle was so mucked up. Cut out the soy and 2 months later it's all back to normal. Scary stuff!

    in 20 pounds down by Christmas! Comment by Kymmy81 October 2011
  • I total about 500-600 for breakfast, but it's all good foods (a nut & seed muesli I make myself, almond milk, chia seeds and flax seed oil) so I don't beat myself up about it. Plus, if I don't have a good and filling breakfast I find that I kind of wig out for the rest of the day, snacking and picking and making other bad…

  • Almond milk is super easy to make yourself also. You just need a blender and something to strain it with (I use a "nut mylk" bag, but cheesecloth or a fine strainer will work as well). I use 1 cup almonds to 4 cups water, strain away the pulp, and you're good to go. I probably wouldn't be so industrious if I could buy…

  • I'm a big green smoothie convert....I highly recommend reading "Green for Life" by Victoria Boutenko if you can get your hands on a copy. There are soooo many benefits from drinking green smoothies - weight loss being my favourite. Increased energy, better sleep, mental clarity, ummmm softer skin....lots of interesting…

  • Oooh Oooh! I finally got my vitamix about 3 weeks ago, and it is AMAZING. The best thing I make with mine is green smoothies....it gets them incredibly smooth and creamy. Even my junk-food loving bf asks for his green smoothie each morning (which is a freaking miracle!). Another recipe which has been a success is tomato…

  • Hi Cobblers, I'm very new here. I'm a vegetarian who doesn't eat dairy but does eat (happy) eggs on occasion...moving towards veganism slowly...I know it's a common and probably silly question, but how do you go keeping your protein intake in check? Keep up the good work!
