you look fantastic - I hope you feel fantastic too.:happy:

quinoa is an excellent source of protein - it has all the amino acids naturally in it - so it is a complete protein, so are eggs. you want to look into food combinations to get the proper type of amino acids to keep your body healthy - such as beans and rice - together they give your body the complete amino acids you need…

a great snack is 1/2 cuo cottage cheese, 1-2 tbl hemp seeds and a small handful of sunflower sprouts. It's delicious and lots of protein.

I am starting to think about a free day - or maybe a free meal - once every week or two, also. For a couple of reasons - one - I have some cravings, that I just shouldn't eat all the time - but I miss them - such as ice cream. plus, my older son, went on the paleo diet a couple of years ago - and he always incorporated a…

I am a vegetarian, so for the most part, I love veggies, but there are some I just don't care for - all those lettuces - ugh - so I find others that I like. Maybe sneak some in other ways - soups, chili, smoothies - and look at a bunch of recipes - maybe it's just the types of veggies you've been eating that you dislike,…

My suggestion is - eat more veggies - I see very few on your list - and more protein - every meal should have some protein - with that apple, have some peanut butter or some almonds. protein helps you stay full longer. and I hope that ham sandwich has some veggies with it too. remember, we should eat at least 2 servings of…

But, depending on my intensity and length of exercise there are days I am starving. so I eat some more -…

I go over my sugar allowance almost every day - and it's due to veggies and fruits. and the fruits I eat are 1/2 cup of wild blueberries - or 1/2 a banana - or 5 strawberries. and then my veggies. I rarely eat a "sweet treat" that isn't naturally sweet. I am not sure who, if anyone can keep it within the limits set by…

I think instead of fighting it and actually having physical discomfort you should eat a small healthy snack - do you have any pecans or walnuts available - eat a small handful of those (about 20 pieces), they're crunchy and if you eat them one at a time and chew thoroughly it will take a bit of time to eat them. That way…

You can tell a difference in your face. And look at that waste! it has definition, way to go! :happy:
