  • Thank you everyone! That helps a lot (especially in trying to figure out what my macro percentage should be!) Yeah, he was hinting pretty heavily towards a Paleo Diet ("we have canines for a reason" actually came out of his mouth at one point). I think I'll just focus on the calorie deficit and building a healthy…
  • Have you tried flax or chia 'eggs'? (En-er-G also works for egg whites, doesn't it? I thought it did, anyway...) Egg whites are usually the glue/binder, so I would think flax or chia seeds would work. Of course, it all depends on the recipe, I suppose. For some of them, even mashed ripened bananas work well. Hope that…
  • Chickpea salad sandwiches! Chickpeas, carrots, celery, pickles, hummus thinned out a little with some pickle juice, salt and pepper. The veg (except for the beans) are diced finely, the chickpeas are mashed with a potato masher and it's all held together with the hummus. This would easily be enough to serve 4-6 people, I'm…
  • Do a cauliflower mash! Steam it until it's really really dead, then mash half and whip the other half. Add in garlic, vegetable (or chicken) broth, salt, pepper, cheese if you're into it... If you add in enough garlic/broth (I use the base so I can double the flavor without all the liquid, and yes, at that point I'll omit…
  • I would continue on as normal - that's why they call it a 'cheat', imo. That being said, if I feel sick at all from whatever I cheated on (i.e., too many sweets leading to a tummy ache), then I'd probably take it REALLY easy the next few days. But that's just me. :)
  • *grabby hands* I need a recipe. Instructions, a website, anything! That sounds delicious! I'm the only vegan in a family full of unapologetic carnivores (I'm the trail-blazing good example, of course. :P), so I need things I can eat and perhaps scale down into a couple of servings. So what do you use in your seitan and…
  • YOU GUISE! I just had my first ab intervals workout (alpha phase, natch!) and I about DIED. I've been following Tanya the entire time, but I could barely keep up with half of her modifications today. I tried to do it the best I could but the ones where I had to lean back and let my abs keep me up killed me especially. :(…
  • Whaaat? you mean there are people like me who are trying to lose weight and be good to themselves/the environment/the world around them, too?? Awesome! What are y'all eating? I just finished my first T25 workout and I know I should eat something, but a) I'm not actually hungry right now (I rarely am after a workout) and b)…
