Gluten free is not a weight loss diet but for those that can not tolerate gluten being able to have pasta or bread makes the life style much easier

I do not feel the need to find a source, as I have worked with doctors for more years than I care to admit and some of those years was in medical education. I know current standards don't have to prove it.

how are you feeling? My friend is feeling better.

true Celiac disease is best diagnosed by a biopsy of the small bowel. The blood work will can tell if you have some of the markers or an elevated titer. Depending on how high those levels are then the doc will decide if you need the biopsy. A co-worked had some elevated levels but not high enough for Celiac but high enough…

most physicians do not go by those standards. It has been found that eggs do not raise your cholesterol. At 70 calories per egg is it is an economical form of protein both in calories and in $$

Even normal weight patients often don't have reserves to deal with a sustained illness. We are not talking about obese who can't move. All too often even normal weight elderly have mobility issues. But yes staying active is important.

A factor that people working in the medical field has seen is a little extra weight provides the reserves when the older person develops a serious illness such as pneumonia or major infection and is hospitalized. The very thin older person does not have the reserves to sustain them through an illness.

I like the recipes that have both. I don't want moc Mac and cheese but feel like added veggies make it healthier.

Korean pork pancake or cutlet, mixed grain rice, cucumber kimchi My first picture post

pasta can't get enough

plug in say burger king hamburger and it will show up

Thread hijack but Sirtfood is not what I thought I saw when I first looked at this

I still occ drink Diet coke and it is not a problem for me. It does not affect my weight loss or cravings so all is good

I love that too, you use a bit less cheese but it is much healthier. I often bake them in single serve containers so I only eat one serving and save the others for other meals or freeze them

I don't count it because I only briefly rent it

Sounds yummy. Penzys makes a really good taco seasoning

Skinny taste is a good place for tasty low cal recipes

I put on a pair of pants that the waist was very snug the still didn't fit. This time because they were way too lose

I make "banana Ice cream" I have a Yonanas machine and it takes frozen bananas and makes it into a frozen ice cream like desert.

If you make your own Paneer, before it is pressed it is similar to ricotta cheese. That would also taste good in your white sauce. Nutmeg is a good idea in white sauce and also with spinach.

I also hope to make the corn dosas this week

I have a hard time giving amounts because foods I have always made I never measure. I add until it looks, smells and tastes right. But I add a bit of butter, some half milk half cream and several hands fulls of Romano or Parmesan cheese, white pepper to taste. Salt the pasta water heavy too. If it is too thick add some…

I have drank skim milk for about 40 years but I eat full fat cheese and cook with fattier milk too. My mother grew up near her grandparents dairy farm and loved full fat milk but not me. They made skim milk back in the 1920's because the cream was worth more for butter making.

You can do ricotta and spinach filling for them too. I would never substitute cottage cheese for ricotta but I am Italian. My grandmother would climb out of her grave and hit me.

tonight I made Mung bean pancakes and Spicy soft tofu stew. Very filling and not high calorie

wonderful

I find pizza I make at home not that high cal and eat it reg. crust is 2.5 cups of flour, a package of yeast and one cup of warm water and a teaspoon of salt mix kneed and let rise. pat out add low sodium tomato sauce, oregano, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese ( don't go crazy on the mozzarella) bake at 425 degrees about…

When you say white sauce do you mean a white cream sauce?

I made Maangchi radish kimchi and just put it in the fridge after fermenting it for 2 days

20 year survivor here of breast cancer stage 2A. I was thin and fit at the time I was diagnosed. Chemo did a number on my metabolism. I tell my patients at there survivorship visit about the importance of diet and exercise on risk reduction I don't know one person who exercises. I try to stay fit and be a good example not…
