A mother is being supportive and reaching out for help and she gets snarky unhelpful responses. Cute. No steak would ever make me go back to eating meat. Or dairy, which I find to be way more disgusting than meat. Watch Forks over Knives and youll never look at dairy the same again. In any case, the basics are tofu,…

Lentils. Beans. Tofu. Tempeh. Split peas. Edamame. Cheese is not a (good) source of protein.

Beans. lentils. Tofu. Tempeh. Peas/split peas(a serving of split peas has 13g of protein for about 100cal) Edamame. Try to stay away from fake meats, there are so many other ingredients in those packaged and processed items its not worth it. They can be a helpful starting point in a transition period but ultimately cooking…

Your body knows what it wants and needs, I really wouldnt suggest trying to coax your body into accepting something it doesnt want. Ill leave that at that. Im vegan, if you have any questions or need help with getting your protein and vitamins etc into your diet, feel free to message me. And yes I get all the protein…

a cup of water is 8oz, a pint is 2 cups. drink up! Drinking water throughout the day you should never truly feel thirsty. Once you get use to using the bathroom very frequently, drinking water gets easier. There is a lot of different information out there about how much we should drink in a day... half your weight in…

Dont be afraid of using frozen veggies... not quite the same as fresh but better than canned or not at all. I buy frozen broccoli and preportion it into ziplocks so I can grab and go. I too, have found that meal prepping is good for my body as well as my wallet(and peace of mind) Some of my go-tos are a veggie tofu stir…

Break ups are hard at any age, size, place in your life. Breaking up with someone for a shallow reason such as weight is pathetic and a cop out.. Someone who truly loved you would want to HELP you, SUPPORT you, offer to work with you to be active or lose weight or find activities you both enjoy....but all that doesnt even…

The plastic kind of tape measure you can find in a fabric or craft store, not the metal ones uses for construction and found at home depot- they wont bend properly for accurate measurements. On your profile, the page where you enter your weight you can also do add in your measurements, adding more if you want. I have neck,…

Definitely try! JM knows from years on BL how to work with all body types, I think her routines are designed to be modified as needed. As said earlier, at the very least just keep moving! even if its walking in place or just doing the arms and not the legs... its going to burn calories and eventually your muscles get use…

Its a work out DVD by Jillian Michaels of The Biggest Loser. Its a popular work out I think because its only 18 minutes, its broken down into 3 6 minute circuits. 3 minute strength, 2 minute cardio and 1 minute abs(IF I remember correctly?) only requires a couple of hand weights and a mat or carpet. Worth checking out, I…

Theyre a great source of fiber, which keeps you fuller longer, I would suggest the easiest way to work them into your life is tacos or burritos especially if you dont eat meat. Beans are a hearty way 'replace' meat. You can find simply recipes online as well for black bean dip for tortilla chips to snack on. I sometimes…

Perhaps a snappy reply will keep their nose out of your business.. " you think this is weird? Ya know what I think is weird, eating things I cant pronounce". - pretty much every chemical and additive in the processed foods they likely consume. I also like the previous of if I want to look like you id eat like you. or you…

I agree with SMK, oatmeal with an apple is great. A very ripe banana works too.. smells and tastes similar to banana bread without all the sugar of course. Ive been adding flax seeds to my oatmeal or cold cereal, helps keep you full. If youre pressed for time in the morning, I would suggest using eggs or egg beaters and…
