  • I use Protein Plus peanut flour, and I eat it almost everyday. I mix it with water and eat it on a banana or apple, I use it in peanut sauce on stir fried veggies, or just straight with water and salt. Great source of protein for vegetarians!

  • We're almost neighbors! I'm in the Drake/Roosevelt area and this has been a terrible winter so far. I find myself doing jumping jacks in my living room! I can't wait until I can start walking outside again. I must be patient...
    in New to Group--anyone out there? Comment by veggiemary January 2014
  • Hi! I'm in Des Moines. Welcome to MFP. This is a great tool and will help you to track what you eat so you can see where you're missing needed foods. For me, it was protein.

  • I buy Protein Plus peanut flour (basically the same thing as PB2, but cheaper) and I mix it with water and eat it with apples or other fruit and veggies. I also make peanut sauce with it and put it on roasted veggies. I'm a vegetarian and it can be hard getting enough protein in my diet, so I eat a lot of peanut flour!
    in what do you do with PB2? Comment by veggiemary January 2014
  • I'm a little taller than you (5'4") and I am 57 years old. On September 1, 2013 I weighed 124 pounds. I'm small boned, so extra weight really shows on me. Four months later I weigh around 108 pounds. The most important thing I've learned with MFP is that I was not eating enough protein, partially because I'm vegetarian. I…
    in Any 5" woman have success stories and or pics? Comment by veggiemary January 2014
  • Yes, I'll probably log to the best of my ability. I'm a vegetarian, so no meat, gravy, or stuffing for me. I'll eat a lot of veggies and salads. I'm not too worried. Also, I HATE pumpkin pie. :-)

  • My favorite tea is the green tea that Costco sells. It is actually green, too. :happy:

  • I snack on edamame...lots of protein. I'm a vegetarian and it is hard to get the required protein. :-)
