Changed the diary settings. Sorry, kinda new here. Thanks for the advice, guys.

More info: I don't feel like I'm starving between meals. I'm only set up to lose a pound a week, and so far that's working just fine.

Did WW for 5 yrs on/off & the last 4 years were hard yo-yoing 10 lbs. because I didn't want to keep paying member fees for the last 5 lbs.

I cook 4 servings of, say, brown rice & beans (with lots of vegetables added): eat 2 servings over the next two days, freeze the other 2. Tastes better and keeps…

OK, thanks for the feedback guys!

Cool. Thanks :D

also, roasted cauiflower is amazing To answer the rhetorical question in the original post, it's called the Maillard reaction: roasting veggies in oil releases hidden sugars. The science of deliciousness!
