Your table of foods isn't inclusive of many high protein vegetarian foods such as, soy milk, filtered dairy milk (such as fairlife), string cheese, cottage cheese, etc. Unsure of what Greek yogurt you are buying, but fage 0% has 16 grams of protein per 80 calories in 5.3oz serving. That's much better than the one you show…

I meal prep by making a large batch of soup (often chicken with vegetables and some type of carb like noodles or barley) and dividing it into portions, cutting up fresh veggies to eat for 2-3 days, and fresh fruits. I also just started doing smoothie prep with frozen fruits and spinach because it has been hot and drinking…

My favorite work snacks used to be light mozzarella string cheese (usually 70 cals), plain microwave popcorn (you can get prepackaged 100cal packs that are pretty decent size if you have access to a microwave at work), carrot sticks, cottage cheese, tangerines, sometimes Clif or other types of energy bars if you have…

I use brown lentils and love this recipe for lentil soup. http://www.budgetbytes.com/2014/01/chunky-lentil-vegetable-soup/ I cut down on the oil that it called for by a lot (I think I use 0.5 tablespoon). My recipe made 9 servings of soup of 3/4-1 cup each (depends on water/broth added). I eat 2 servings at a time for…

The link you posted debunks the entire myth (this is what the snopes website is known for... disproving silly myths like this one). Did you even read the webpage? Chlorine in low doses is in your drinking water, too, and isn't harmful. There is nothing wrong with baby carrots or the processing involved. It's a way to use…

You are definitely right that the energy pathways vary quite a bit, but I was trying to make the point that for most people, calories in vs. calories out are more important than cutting out sugar. At the end of the day, or week, your body has used it's daily BMR of calories (or x7 per week)... and if you ate at your BMR or…

I'm not trying to be rude but I don't think you actually know what you are talking about. You are way over-simplifying the body's energy usage. Say you eat 1500 calories of carbs, and your basal metabolic rate is 1600 calories per day. That means doing nothing, you burn 1600 calories... of the carbs you ate OR the fat you…
