Feel free to add. :)

I use Plant Fusion - Very much enjoy the vanilla bean flavor. Blends well with smoothies, oatmeal, pancakes, etc...

As others have mentioned, quantity and quality are of great importance. I started at 150lbs and am now down to 135lbs. I eat around 1800, give or take, each day. Food is fuel. Also, the quality of the nutrients you are getting is severely lacking. Add some fruits and vegetables in there and try to get away from the…

In regards to the gal from the pictures -- I hadn't seen this before in the post; My body is already relatively toned to that degree. I'm down to 18.5% BF and am maintaining well. I'm basically just trying to go the extra step -- eating raw, cutting some grains, etc... eating healthier. My understanding of paleo was not as…

Yes! Very much so. Gives me an idea of what to build my meals around. The tahini dressing sounds delicious! :) Been looking for other ways to use tahini (besides hummus)

Thank you for the great reply. I will check out that website. I do work out about 5-6 times a week (Running and lifting, interval, etc...), as well as working an "on my feet" job. (12 hour shifts at the hospital). I use the plant fusion protein powder which offers 22g protein with 4 carbs as supplementation. I don't eat…

I'm looking at trying to move toward a more paleo-raw version of vegan. Don't need any attacks, just seeing how my body reacts to limiting grains, bread, etc... Because legumes are frowned upon in paleo, I'm going to try and limit those as well. After a few days of limiting carbs, my body feels and looks better. Less…

Love your pinterest board!

I eat vegan. Feel free to check out my food diary. I also have a link to some recipes I use. https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B7r0I5O2IBntZkFoYUtPRzRHdkU&usp=sharing

Plant Fusion (Vanilla Bean is delicious!) I mix it into my oatmeal or make pancakes with it. Works great.

Since I follow a vegan diet, I've found that the Plant Fusion protein powders are great. I just bought the vanilla bean flavor and love it! 21 g Protein 120 Calories 4 carbs Plant based protein and nutrients Relatively cheap on Amazon for a 2lb bucket

Feel free to add. Love my bike. Don't have a fixed gear but just recently upgraded to a Specialized Dolce Elite. :)

A week-ish.

I find that I am much more efficient and have better endurance by running toe first. It's also more comfortable for me and I have never had shin splints or issues.

Getting ready for my first 5K mud run in June. You're welcome to add me. I'm currently finishing up the C25K and going to start the Tough Mudder training program. :) Happy training!

I work 12 hour shifts at the hospital. I take quite a bit of food to work so I always have a healthy snack option. Today's packing looked like this: Snacks: Baby carrots Apple Orange Buddy fruits fruit snacks Supper: Homemade chili Crackers BIG bowl of vegetables Chia pudding Before I go home so I don't binge when I get…

Nearly vegan. Working my way toward it. Feel free to add. :)

1.5 C Black Beans 2 Tbs Cocoa 1/2 C. Quick Oats 1/4 Tsp Salt 1/3 C Honey or alternative 2 Truvias 1/4 C. Oil or applesauce 1/2 Tsp baking powder 1/2 C-2/3C chocolate chips 350 Degrees Combine all Mix in chips 15-18 Minutes This is the recipe I use. Except I used Sohgave Maple as my honey alternative, and carob chips…

I make some vegan black bean brownies and then I pair it with a banana 'ice cream' (one frozen banana, blended with cocoa powder) Healthy and sweet! I love dessert and this satisfies!

Feel free to add. 25 year old female. Vegetarian, nearly vegan. Currently doing C25K -- week 8 Striving to become a runner. Free weights Yoga. Lots of outdoor activities! :)

If you eat eggs: 1 avocado 1-2 Hard Boiled Eggs Salt and Pepper Optional: Spash of Greek Yogurt Onion When I used to eat dairy/eggs, this was one of my favorite lunches. All put into a whole wheat wrap with sprouts, tomato, etc...

Well this escalated quickly.

I just listen to my body. If I think I can do days in a row, I do. A couple of the weeks, I added extra days doing those intervals because I didn't feel ready to move on.

One of the best things I've done for myself. I went from barely being able to run for 5 minutes at moderate speed to running 39 minutes straight in week 6 at 5.5 mph. Resting and max HR both have decreased by about 20 beats/min. It's been awesome. Feel free to add for motivation both ways. Love new friends on here!

Nope. He's a guy. Haha.

Have at it! Iove looking at diaries. And new friends!

I like this! I'm always counting reps but I like the idea of doing it for specific time interval. I'm gonna try this!

I'm currently doing the couch to 5k program -- never been much of a runner or cardio person but this has definitely helped with that. I'm just about done with the program. What would you suggest upon completion for HIIT?

I do side crunches and reverse crunches. Not sure if that's helpful or not but I do them anyway. haha.

Haha. Same!!
