  • These are tasty and fit your criteria. https://thegirlonbloor.com/5-ingredient-pumpkin-protein-pancakes/ I find them improved by adding a couple tablespoons white flour. They stick together better and turn more successfully.
  • Best short cut idea; it takes as long to bake a tray of chicken breasts or meatballs as it does to bake one. You save loads of time down the road. The best containers are the cheap ones. I use various ziplocks a lot. Hummus and bean dip can be frozen flat in a ziplock. Before freezing score the hummus with a chopstick or…
  • Is the medication for weight loss or something else? I found it helpful to set SMART goals and review them weekly. The goals would be behavioural not weight goals like, “log food daily” or “walk twenty minutes daily five days this week”. The scale fluctuates but I have total control over my behaviour.…
  • Here are my best recipes. Guaranteed tender. https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/perfect-pan-roasted-chicken-thighs https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/chicken-schnitzel https://pin.it/akaci4ok645hti

  • As a young woman in the northern hemisphere, I would suggest vitamin D and Folic Acid. You might also benefit from an iron supplement depending on your bloodwork. The most natural source of Vitamin D is sunlight but not many of us spend all day outdoors in our skivvies these days. The natural sources of iron are red meat,…
  • o_0 1/3 cup chia is a lot! I prefer to put a teaspoon in my oatmeal. Now that we are finally defrosting I am craving overnight oats again. I put 1/4 cup oats, the same amount milk, a cut up kiwi, a teaspoon chia, and topped with Skyr. I’ll see how it is in the morning.
  • Brown bananas go in the freezer to be made in to frozen smoothies later.
  • You have to be eating more. Have that biscuit with a glass of milk.
  • I see two fails here. 1. Start with YouTube and Google research. 2. Buy the product before checking with dieting veterans. I predict a very boring few days with modest results. Might as well muscle through now that you have spent the money. I suggest afterwards: 1. Start with a reputable source like…
  • You might find something here. https://www.completefoods.co
  • Well very plainly I will not follow a link that starts as www.drharddick.com OP, your safest diet includes a wide variety of foods including bananas and all the other foods you love. This is to prevent unintended deficiencies.
  • The slow buildup is critical. Your heart and lungs need to build up strength and capacity and only time will do that for you. Cardio=heart, Vascular=veins and lungs. Hence, Cardio exercise. The good news is you will see improvement every week when you are following C25K. I found the improvement to be more reliable and…
  • There are different kinds of soreness. A sharp pain or sudden weakness can mean injury and working through the pain will only make it worse. Recovery could be delayed months. DOMS can be worked through. The best prevention is good stretching before and after every workout. I suggest you modify your workout; make it a…
  • It’s always harder on the one being rejected. But there are plenty of signs that it is time to move on. He’s a heel. Next time you two talk tell him you’ve had a good long think about what he said and you agree that time apart is the healthiest thing for both of you. His stuff is in a box by the door. Don’t call me. I’ll…
  • Other than the spinach and the fortified cereal none of what you are eating is terribly high in iron. Also check the MFP entries are complete. Red meat helps. You might also try the Lucky Iron Fish, designed for countries where accessing iron rich foods is harder to come by.

  • “This doesn't mean you're completely cured. Type 2 diabetes is an ongoing disease. Even if you're in remission, which means you aren't taking medication and your blood sugar levels stay in a healthy range, there's always a chance that symptoms will return. But it's possible for some people to go years without trouble…
  • I expect you did have low blood sugar and luckily you found the cure. I suggest you carry glucotabs with you.
  • Features of the gall bladder and the diabetic diet have in common are small frequent meals heavy with vegetables. The small frequent meals will keep the blood sugars stable all day. I would say diet reforms can delay T2 diabetes, even for decades, but expecting a reversal is unrealistic. What the hey? You’ll be learning to…
  • If I were you I’d take a few test drives on the weekend. Maybe go half the distance. See how you feel. Don’t find out on a work day when you have no options.
  • Keep your health and mobility! Age is so much more fun with it. There’s a 98 year old volunteer in my church who is out three days a week organizing bread for the hungry. You betcha he inspires many more to keep helping. The seniors in my church, the thriving ones, have a full dance card. That’s the way to live.
  • Heck I’d give up on any intensity after a pressure cooker like that. Don’t exercise. Call it something else. Like pink fluffy self care.
  • If it’s one leg, have you considered going to a physiotherapist? Doctors look for disease. Physio looks to improve range of movement.
  • This week it’s Skyr with my oatmeal.
  • Roast chicken and a bagged salad. Preparing roast beef is screamingly easy. Roast once and done. Slice it and prep for many meals to come. Here is the recipe I use, and I don’t bother with the thermometer. https://canadabeef.ca/oven-roast-know-how/ How about Uncle Bens prepared rice with roast beef?…
  • I should mention I found out what I liked by making up a big batch of bland oats based meal replacement shakes, bagging in to single servings then using every flavouring I had in the house. I took notes. Vanilla and cinnamon did not make the cut. I make my lemon lime by adding a Crystal Lite package and this stuff:…
  • - All exercise even the stuff you don’t count is exercise and will contribute to your overall health. - Get a lung capacity test done. Rule out any potential underlying health condition. It may be that aerobic activity really was killing you. - I don’t care how short the list is; find activities that you enjoy. I suggest…
  • Turmeric is a spice made from the root of a plant in the ginger family, and curcumin is the active ingredient. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turmeric Once your nutritional needs are met, taking in more (micro or macro) does no more for you. If calorie restriction is one of your goals, use half a banana. Does your flax…
  • You are so very smart! This is a long term project so the less said about it the better. Have some witty comebacks at the ready for the nosy people and remember you owe no-one an explanation. I would smile sweetly “bless your heart” and change the subject such as, whether they have done their taxes yet?
