I use Vega Sport protein which is plant based when I am training for races. I use it because it is vegan and I cannot have any dairy. But I like it, and I think it really gives my muscles the extra protein they need after a good hard run. Also the taste and texture are good as well.

Feel free to add me!

You can add me as a friend too!

And how many of us, actually only have one slice of pizza and some fresh salad? I know I always one slice too many when I have pizza.

I feel like a lot of junk is easily available now too. I remember my mom saying when she grew up that it would be a treat if you went to the story for your mother and had a cent left over for a few candy. That didn't happen every day. Now days if I want candy or chips I can DRIVE to any store and buy not only an individual…

Yes we do have a running room here, I will try and get there the weekend and talk to the people there and maybe add more stuff to my kit. Thanks!

I have to agree with Tried- I find that I cannot make some of my recipes, because the flour does not translate properly. I find I cannot make a gravy for the life of me anymore, nor can I make something my mom called pudding, though is more like large baked dumpling (maybe similar to yorkshire pudding). And I am not going…

Thanks guys

Got out and actually trained today. I had two gluten episodes the weekend and barely was able to get out of bed let alone get out and go for a run. But today I am feeling better, hopefully tomorrow I will feel even better, but I felt good enough to go for a run and my stomach didn't act up during the 5km. Unsure if I can…

haven't logged into this for a while. Last week I was out of town for work, but the hotel we stayed in did have a fitness room with a treadmill. 09/5-25 minutes of treadmill 09/6-18 minutes of treadmill, I am unsure of the distance equivalence, but I would estimate it at 4.5Km. I haven't ran since but really need to get…

9/3- 4.5K, Had a pretty good day. I was up and back from my run before anyone else woke this morning, 2.5km. Then this afternoon we went for a small walk which was another 2Km. It was nice a cool this morning, not cold, I was still able to wear a t-shirt and capris. But I did not get soaked with my own sweat. I kind of…

This is so much great information, I might need to get a face shield for sure. I have asthma, and as the wind picks up this time of year, it might make breathing a little harder. Also I find it harder to breath when it is cold. I will try the face mask, and also try and keep track of what I am wearing and the temperature I…

I didn't do much today. The In-Laws are in and their youngest son is moving in with me and boyfriend. We went down town for a little walk around, but unfortunately I was also eating jelly beans and the time. We also is a lot of walking around the mall today, but I didn't count that. My fitness ban says I walked 6.8Km…

I made a little goal for myself taking into consideration that I will need a couple of weeks to get back into the grove.

Hey, I am new this forum, but I am in. I am thinking about running a 5K in October, and this might be the motivation I need to push me to do it. I cannot really give myself a goal, I would like to run 5K a day to train, but it has been a few weeks since I ran so I might build myself up to 5K over a couple of weeks. My knee…

I am a little late to the party, but I will keep an eye open for the September one, hopefully this will help get me back on track!!

I have been doing 1200 cals a day for over a year now, if I do heavy exercise I will let myself eat some of those calories, there are other days that I am only at 1000 calories and I am done for the day, and then there are the days that I have 500cal over. But I agree that you will get used to feeling hungry, but also your…

Thanks for your contribution, I will keep an eye out for maltodextrin and carrageenan. Actually I believe I have reacted to carrageenan long before I stopped gluten. A few years ago I went to a sushi place (the only time I have ever eaten it) and had a vegan roll (I couldn't get over the raw fish part) and I was the only…

Another reason people are saying they are intolerant or sensitive to gluten is because their doctors will not test them for it. I think I am gluten sensitive. I went to my doctor and he sent me for the blood test (which almost always comes back negative, even in people are already diagnosed with celiac). He then told me…

OMG I know right. I have been wanting tomato soup for a while now but I can't just have the can stuff anymore. I just need to find a good and easy recipe and a weekend to try it out. I use Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce which is also gluten free. I cannot eat ice cream anymore because of dairy but I do have some coconut ice…

These are great tips and I will be sure to look at the websites you guys added. I also cannot have dairy anymore. I hope it is just a short time and when my stomach heals I will be able to have it again. I am not diagnosed with celiac and my doctor is very careful with the words intolerant and sensitive. I myself am going…

Thanks guys I will look into these resourses tonight. I officially went gluten free two weeks ago. My boyfriend and I went to the mall to do some summer shopping and I had to bring my own lunch which sucked but I didn't get sick which allowed me to stay shopping. I am really craving chicken nuggets today and I think I will…

Actually the other morning I made ginger tea to drink after I took my pill and I think it worked to settle my stomach so I think I am going to try some gravol ginger with them too.

I found out the hard way taking it with milk. Oh my I was sick. I have been taking them in the morning with a fruit smoothie, without yogurt. But in the evenings I take it with my supper, I might have to take it a bit later so I don't accidentally take it with something to make me more sick.

I am glad I am not the only one having such a hard time with this. My doctor and pharmacists told me I would get a little bit of an upset stomach but to take it with a little food and orange juice (Vit c help absorption). When I went to my pharmacist last week and told her how sick I was (having diarrhea) she was very…

I do eat meat, and now have incorporated spinach into supper almost every night. I only recent starting cooking red meat, it never was the fact that I didn't like it, it is that I am bad a cooking it. I always eat beef or steak that my folks cook, but since I've been on my own for 7 years, I rarely cook beef unless of…

I might just actually play around with the recipe and see what feels more accurate, I prefer a slight over estimate than a slight underestimate. So I might try logging the full, 3/4, 1/2 or 1/4 marinade and see what feels the best. Then again the marinade was mostly vinegar and therefore with a few seasoning so not many…

I don't know if this will help but when I feel hungry after eating well and exercising I ask myself if I want oatmeal, or toast or an apple. If not then I don't eat if yes then I eat a small amount of something like this. Sometimes I ask this and I am like no I don't want this, normally I regard this as craving for sugar…

Hey!
