Chapattis are delicious wholewheat Indian flatbreads. For bread, very healthy and tasty

Well that's cleared that up

Thank you. That sounds very plausible.

56 pounds is very impressive for someone who joined in February!!

Quorn Mince is really healthy and is often on special. I don't eat meat, but even if I did I would use Quorn for Bolognese or Shepherds Pie it is so low in Fat - especially saturated fat.

Internet connection?

Eating carbs but trying to stick to Brown Rice, Wholewheat Pasta, Rye Bread and Sweet Potatoes. Apparently the more complex carbohydrates. I'd like someone to explain the science as to why they are better than the usual varieties, but it seems to be working.

You can add me if you wish. I am on a similar path to you, but I've been through my dip and have been back on track for 6 weeks now (New Year's resolution!). I lost 45lbs, gained 30 of them back and now have lost 15lbs to take me to 30lbs down, so I understand the pitfalls!

A lot of people are Wheat intolerant, rather than all types of Gluten. Try switching to Rye or Spelt (which is technically wheat, but a variety that doesn't have the same issues as ordinary wheat) Bread and the G/F Pasta has improved immeasuarably (although be very careful not to overcook it). Other than that get carbs…

Can I ask how you are measuring the inches lost. That is too much for round your waist and I am confused what the measurement means.

That gives you a BMI of over 28, which is still "overweight". Why not push on to 140lbs and hit the so called normal range? You have undoubtedly done really well, but medically it is not quite complete. Not for anyone else to say where you should stop, but with the momentum you clearly have, wouldn't it be good to push on…

I'm in!

Did you buy that top in all sizes?

My gym has one, and the same people use it time after time. They will testify they do work, but I haven't tried it. Feels like cheating!

Most commercial cheeses are made with microbiotic rennet and is entirely Vegetarian. Many of the more artisan cheeses are not vegetarian. In the UK at least.

And there it is, the reason we dislike Americans. The woman was rude, and the response arrogant and disdainful (and if you are educated, God help us). Just wonder what the motive is for writing this. To show off that you got the upper hand over a deluded and stupid woman (as depicted in this post - although possibly the…

Used to do low carb, but eventually the cravings were too much and found I was hungry all the time. Now I try to limit carbs a bit, but mainly have swapped to brown rice, brown pasta and wholewheat bread. Would only have 50 grams of pasta or rice at a sitting, so lower than the recommended portions. Apart from this I get a…

Thanks again. I put it all into "my recipes" and 8 servings comes out at 1994 kcals and therefore 249 kcals per serving! Will def try the recipe.

Thanks. You say that is 350kcals per serving, how many does the above make. Please say 1!

If you do your TDEE correctly it would have to include exercise, otherwise is just wrong. If you then eat back your exercise then you are eating more than you burn (or at least are not taking off the full 15%)

I'm thinking this thread is dead now, as that web site has the whole question sorted. Thank you for the link!

Is that really 1-2 or should it be 1/2? 2 cans seems an awful lot?

Bump is so that it stays at the top of the list. The posts are sorted by last posted date, so if you add any comment it is nearer the top when you want to search for it later.

You've added, not subtracted. If TDEE is 1510 (and it isn't that is too low) you calculate 15% which is 226 and subtract that from 1510. Therefore 1510 - 226 = 1284 per day. I would recalculate your TDEE though. I suspect you have used your BMR (which is much lower).

Mushroom omelette with grilled tomatoes. I use the whole egg (can't get enthused about egg whites!) and a little spray oil and it sets me up nicely for the day.

Anyone have a view on how many pancakes this will make? Over 500 kcal here, and so needs to spread over a few if I am to try it.

How many does this make. This recipe is about 600 calories, so unless it makes 2 or 3 this is a high calorie breakfast.

I think the question is what is most effective or are they the same? I like to work out pre dinner, so 5:30 straight from work is best for me after my daily carbs for lunch will have been digested. I would suggest the most effective is first thing in the morning, so that your metabolism is woken up for the whole day, but…
