Sounds great! Man, I wish I liked hard boiled eggs but I cannot get a hard yolk down. They're something I try every so often to try to acquire the taste but it hasn't stuck yet!

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely check it out.

Meal prepped my work lunches for the week. A breakfast/snack box (252 cal) and a hot lunch (191 cal). Would love to hear your simple, satisfying lunch ideas! Wishing you all a successful week ahead!

Awesome! I'm curious to hear how you like them / modify them!

You'll have to let me know how you like them! I've been having one for breakfast most mornings and it fills me right up. The healthy sweetness in them makes for a good snack too when your sweet tooth acts up. Our foster pup is amazing. He's such a good boy and has made himself right at home. We had a chat at dinner last…

Thanks, Vicky ❤ He sure is a good boy! So hard to believe that someone abandoned him and that he was close to being euthanized because his number was up. Here's the link for the bars: https://www.loveandlemons.com/granola-bars-recipe/ I altered it a bit: I used 2tbsp cacao powder instead of chocolate chips. I chopped 1/3c…

Hello, fellow workday walking buddy! We can do it!

Well, I somehow gained nearly 2lbs overnight, and my first weigh-in for August is higher than my last weigh-in for July. Weight can be such a fickle thing. I joined in these threads last month with no real changes to my eating/exercise, but I'm committed to following through with my set goals this month. Age: 36 Height:…

For you SUP lovers, Google Mike Shoreman / "The Unbalanced Paddleboarder". He's a friend of mine who went from professional SUP instructor, to unable to walk due to a medical emergency, to now public speaker, author and is preparing to paddle 87 miles across the lake from US to Canada. Remarkably inspiring.

I just finished 45 minutes on the recumbent. The bike is where I like to dive into a self-development book and work on myself physically, mentally and emotionally -- all simultaneously. Today's part was about responsibility and the choices we make. Interesting, since heading into the kitchen afterward had me faced with…

@uyister - good for you with T25! I have started/stopped that program without completing it probably a half dozen times! For some reason I just can't stick with that one!

Morning! Hope everyone's day is off to a great start! Quick breakfast before jumping on a meeting -- one of my favourites; just missing avocado! 235 cal: swedish rye toast, laughing cow cream cheese, egg/whites, tomato + EBTB seasoning.

Removed. Technical glitch!

I like that about you.

Why can't weeeee be friends? Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friendssss? Why can't we be fraaaaaaaands?!

Fellow EMS shift worker here, feel free to add me! Finding the balance is a constant struggle.

Quit cold Turkey Jan 01. Feel like a million bucks. Do it, you'll thank yourself.

Feel free to add me :)

I get that. But if I knew what macros worked best for me, I wouldn't be seeking the help of a calculator or a forum. I obviously need assistance in finding a starting point. What I am failing to grasp is why, if the model is the same, 3 different calculators would pump out 3 different solutions when asking the same…

Helpful. ...thanks.

I understand the Y is an important variable. But because this is the first time I'm really looking at macros, my Y is really an undetermined variable. Which is why I was seeking assistance. I'd love to go 90/5/5 C/F/P but that is obviously not realistic or sustainable. I knew there'd be some tweaking after the onset, but I…

They don't have options for g/lb, it's preset/built in. 184 to 160, 5'5, likely around a 30% BF. IIFYM site pumped out 1330 cal / 136P, 43C + 68F Fitlabs site pumped out 1472 cal / 125P, 130C + 50F Lifesum app pumped out 1471 cal / 74P, 184C + 49F While the latter two are more closely matched, there's still a huge variance…

Fat loss. IIFYM site set 133gP/67gF Lifesum app set 74gP/49gF So there's even a pretty big disparity in the protein as well.
