good fats are what keep me full longer :) I am mostly always over my fat allowance according to MFP. I aim for 30:30:40 (P:F:C) but am often higher on the fats. I often add things like olives, avocado, quality EVOO etc to my meals. As long as I am still creating a calorie deficit and this is what keeps me full longer and…

Well let's put it this way, i've tried a few diff pills and weight loss systems. the two times i was successful (40lbs a few years ago and the 41 currently loss) and both those times I only used MFP. :) Save the money to use on healthy food :)

hubby is making a whiskey brown sugar marinade for chicken and roasted veggies. I don't have to cook so this makes me happy. it's a very rare occurrence lol

sent you an inbox :)

yay fellow spiralizing friends lol

yum :)

i can relate. on prednisone... have managed not to gain what i've recently lost... but that's about it. i have fought tooth and nail to stay where I am for the last 2 months. oh and now my hair is shedding at an exponential rate more than usual. and it makes me pee all night. ugh.

curious as to why the UMES seems to be more important than the leg? LOL what are we emphasizing exactly? :))

hahaha in for the laughs

Irish French Canadian / Native on my fathers side, british -german on my mother's side. lol

I have one that took about two hours on my foot, i did not expect to be able to sit that long i thought it would hurt way more... it was fine... I will be getting another on my other foot eventually :)

mine works for elliptical and treadmill... it's clipped to my bra also. ETA: do you have the flex (bracelet) and are holding on to the rails?)

:drinker:

i haven't even hit my 12-1300 yet tonight ( just about) and i've eaten more that that (all weighed out).... including a couple squares of chocolate.

yup! i think it's great. the trick for me that i learned back when i first discovered spaghetti squash and didn't quite enjoy it the first time lol was because i was expecting it to taste just like it somehow, and it doesn't... but once i told myself i was having spag squash (or now zuc) which I like with spag sauce which…

yup bravo for the bait n switch lol but really nice post :) I was all ready to type up a rant about how some people are coming from work or on a lunch break, or hey maybe it helps them get through their day, or maybe miss perfect started where we are... and then you did that, and i didn't have to. sweet... :)

pb and cinnamin for a yummy fruit dip chocolate protein powder and pb home made strawberry jam any seasonings to make a veggie dip

^ this... get out of the headspace that you have to eat only what the marketing world has made "breakfast foods" at breakfast. sausage, left over supper (protein and veg), make your own sausage patties, etc, I like eggs so will often eat some scrambled eggs with sausage and brussel sprouts, or cottage cheese with some…

to get my good fats i eat avocado, olives, evoo, coconut oil :) generally if i add a 1/4 or half avocado or couple of servings of olives into my day I am good to go :)

loose ( i wanna loose weight fast) cleanse/detox starvation mode "the person above you" :drinker:

Why not boil a dozen or two eggs so they are their to grab and go!? An egg, some yogurt and grapes gets you some protein to hold you over a bit... I've gotten out of the mindset of needing to eat 'breakfast foods' for breakfast only... I often do eggs, bacon or sausage, and a veg and a good fat like avocado, Or a cottage…

Ottawa valley. beautiful fall day here as well lol :))

olive oil + vinager ( red wine, balsamic, flavored balsamic etc) + spices salsa & cottage cheese dressing made with avocado maple syrup + mustard + evoo

all of it? lol chips mostly. cheese is up there but i am pretty good at portioning pasta/garlic bread. so hard to do a portion of this... thank goodness for my spiralizer! I just don't do the bread anymore. oh and poutine (french fries, cheese curds and gravy delicious heart attack)

yum! guac for sure lol but i tend to eat them in my days as a side with a lil s&p, if i'm eating bread, toasted tomato and avocado sammich with mayo is yum, or add it to a BLt, also on salad or like today i have a mix of cucs, tomatoes, red onion, 1/4 avocado, some cottage cheese with a bit of s&p thats lunch :)

i don't see how green smoothies are not real food lol spinach banana, strawberries, kale, pb etc are not real food? lol when i was doing them in jan before i got sick (colitis flare) i lost 11 lbs (first month back on the band wagon after holidays so water weight too i am sure). I was only having them for breaky (and i did…

sugar, carbonated drinks and sugar/dairly combo (ice cream or iced capps) are the worse for me so now i avoid them. pair those with stress and bam. owwie! but over all sugar i am learning is where it's worst for me
