Have you been tested for celiac disease? Celiac disease causes damage to your gut, which allows larger food molecules into your bloodstream, which are then treated as foreign invaders, since they aren't supposed to be there. The result is multiple allergies. There is a food allergies group too. You may want to try a…

I make a variation of this: http://www.bigoven.com/recipe/177214/Citrus-Sweet-Potato-Rounds

I do this too. And I talk to myself about what kind of run my body needs on a particular day, even if I'm on a training schedule. Which day am I going to work on speed? One day I'll work on cadence, with no music. I run Friday and Saturday (long run), so Friday is usually a slower, shorter run. Sometimes I'll plan to go…

I usually burn 500-700 cal per day. - running (outdoors, yes, even when it is cold out) - walking - DVD's/old VHS - Jillian Michael's, Boot Camp, Tae Bo, yoga, etc. - weights (5 and 10 lb, routines on my iPhone) - bodyweight strength building (apps on my iPhone) - Wii Fit, Gold's Gym, etc. on wii

Most people who have celiac disease don't know they have it. In many cases it is silent or presents with symptoms other than bloating, digestive issues, and weight loss. It can affect every system in your body. I had no idea I was celiac. We cleared gluten out of the house for DS (who is adopted) and when my husband and I…

Avocado chocolate pudding?

Yeah, I stopped eating meat when I figured out that I would throw up for three days whenever I had it. Especially beef and dairy combined. It was much easier just to go veg. I joined some vegetarian recipe internet groups (back when internet was young and mostly text based) and started collecting recipes. First of all,…

What are you seeing the nutritionist for?

I would second (or third) the suggestion of gluten-free diet. It is the only thing that has helped my dad with his, and I know a lot of other people online who have had the same experience. Let me know if you need any help or suggestions. There is also a gluten-free group here. I am vegetarian, grain-free, dairy-free and…

Okay, usually you can use any kind of oil when you are making granola, to nicely brown the oats. But it is harder to toast them in a crockpot because the temp is lower and it is a moist environment. Coconut oil is really good for toasting/browning foods. The peanut butter might be tasty, but I don't think it will help much…

I'm confused as to whether you are looking for a sub for coconut oil or for canola oil. What kind of recipe is it? Coconut oil is a solid fat, so I would probably be looking to sub a solid fat.

Lentils!

But what if the doctor says they're not sick?

This is a great lentil soup: http://www.bigoven.com/recipe/164664/Syrian-Red-Lentil-Soup

They don't happen to be Asics, do they? Replace the factory insole with a gel insole. Use proper running socks, like Wilson's guaranteed no blisters. Lubricate if necessary. Burn dressings work well for the blisters you already have.

A marinated salad is super simple and keeps well all week. Just marinate hardy veggies, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes in Italian dressing. I find quinoa keeps better than rice. And it works nicely in cold salads, where rice tends to get dry. I can't eat rice any more anyway. You can also "change up" a simple green salad…

Good! I have friends who have gone to OG and they didn't know and got glutened.

Did you know the mixed grill is only GF if you order it without demi-glace?

A shrink. LOL. In more ways than one!

I always have cooked quinoa and green salad in the fridge. Vegetables in the freezer, especially california mix. Lots of fresh fruits and veggies available Pancakes and buns in the freezer So I always have those foods to rely upon when there is nothing else available. On the weekend I usually cook a bigger meal, and on…

No, meat is not high in potassium. Here's a site broken down by food groups with charts so you can pick the higher potassium items out of each of your food groups. http://healthyeatingclub.com/info/books-phds/books/foodfacts/html/data/data5b.html

Legumes, greens, potatoes, crucifers, berries/kiwi. I turned on the potassium column in my diary for someone else. Have a peek if you like.

I do eat eggs, but am vegetarian, dairy free, grain free, and other allergies. You're welcome to browse my diary and ask for recipes!

Just gave myself a Google primer on what diet is good to follow for PCOS, and mine seems to be pretty good. Feel free to browse my diary and ask if you see a recipe you want.

Nuts, dried fruit, popcorn, crackers with marmalade or a savoury spread . . .

Take a deep breath. Plan out the rest of your day - egg white omelet, big green salad, lentil soup, etc. Get in a walk or run. Don't give up, eat reasonably the rest of the day. Tomorrow is a new day and being over 1300 calories one day is not the end of the world. Put it into perspective.

Blame Dr. Mercola for popularizing HIIT and the idea that if you are doing cardio for more than 20 minutes you are just wasting your time, or worse, doing damage. Not that I've got anything against HIIT. I just don't like the villifying of cardio either. I haven't started any HIIT, though I intend to once it gets light out…

Foods that are calorie dense are usually either high fat or high sugar. So if you are looking for foods that are high calories but low fat, think sweet. Dates and other dried fruit. Chocolate. Candies or carbs for runners (gu, bloks, gummies, gels, etc.) Juice. However, as others are sure to mention, fats like those…
