  • I posted before but have changed a bit more being a work in progress! Before: 340+ After: 220
  • This quote always pops into my head when I hear someone say, “You’re lucky that you can push yourself to workout and/or eat better”. “I'm a greater believer in luck, and I find the harder I work the more I have of it” ~ Thomas Jefferson This is my go to, to keep me from quitting. "Many of life's failures are people who did…
  • I think variety is always a good thing but here is an article, take from it what you will but there are and have been cultures that meat was their diet. diagnosisdiet.com/all-meat-diets/
  • That moment that your hindquarters start to hurt from sitting to long, and it has only been a few minutes.
  • I use it sparingly in cooking just like any other fat. It has pros and cons just like the rest of them. It works really well as a butter sub in baking vegan items. I dislike it for frying eggs because it imparts a coconutty flavor to them. It is awesome for dry skin and I use it almost daily as a beard oil to moisturize my…
  • Hello, I am down about 115ish total so far and 80ish since join mfp. I do have an open diary to friends and other than a few physical set backs have been doing well with losing and maintaining when I am limited on workouts. Please feel free to add and we can enjoy the ride together.
  • I too live in a suburb, but found that the markets are starting to carry more vegan friendly items and also found an Asian specialty market and they carry much more and are will to get things if asked.
  • I am not a vegan but do cook like one a lot and find that there are lots of vegan cheeses and dairy like products (milk, yogurt and ice creams). I have found I like most of the milks and yogurts, but the cheese is the hard one for me to get use to. You have to just start trying them until you find the ones you like. I find…
  • This is one of my favorite Hot & Sweet Asian Quinoa Salad Ingredients: Salad: • 4 c baby spinach • 1 c quinoa • ¾ c red bell pepper (diced) • ¾ c yellow bell pepper (diced) • 1 c mango (diced) • ¾ c green onion (chopped) • ** thai chili ( finely diced) [use according to your heat tolerance] Dressing: • ¼ c rice vinegar • ¼…
  • Took some time but 115lbs to date, but still a work in progress!
  • We all have stumbles in life: So do not let one bad day escalate into weeks, months or years.

  • Perception of the situation is you gained with little acknowledgement of quality and quantity of food through time. But when you take account of what is entering your body then add the notion of time everything feels slower. But once what is new becomes familiar time will just pass. Just need to remember to always slow it…
  • Before: 340 After: 230 (Still a work in progress)
  • Photos are over the past 3 years. I have gone from 340 lbs. to 230 lbs. in about 1 year before damaging my ACL. At that point I was unable to continue my workouts so I switched to maintenance and maintained my loss for just over 5 months. For the past month and half, I have continued getting back into my workout schedule…

  • Sedentary : Little or no exercise. This level is for someone who does not or cannot incorporate exercise into their daily life (e.g. drives rather than walks, takes the lift rather than the stairs, has a desk job or restricted mobility). Lightly active : Light exercise or sports 1-3 days per week. This level would include…
  • In the mid day I like a fruit Greek yogurt (low sugar and full/low fat depending on my macros for the day) with a serving of PB2 powder, when mixed it is like a pb&j. Fixes the mid day sweet tooth.

  • I made these the other night and no one could tell they were meatless. I changed the recipe a bit, did not use the tomato sauce, mustard or sugar. I substituted it out with a 14.5 ounce can of petite diced tomatoes and 1-1/2c of organic ketchup and also used a liquid smoke soy sauce then added hot paprika and red pepper…
  • For mornings Lapsang Souchong is like coffee when it comes to a love-it-or-hate-it flavor. It is smoked dark tea with a tarry taste it may be an option for you if you think tea is too weak-tasting compared to coffee.
  • It's recommended to drink approximately two quarts (64 ounces or about eight glasses) of water each day. Of course, if you live in an extremely hot or cold area — or if physically exerting yourself — you may need to drink a gallon or more of water every day. But finding what works for you is best.

  • Learning to fight should teach the act of restraint. A person with sociopathic tendencies reaction to getting into a fight would be the same if he learned to fight or knit. I have done several disciplines through the years and only fight if it is the only possible conclusion out of a situation.
  • Some of the point she made were good, but she is a doctor that is trying to push her supplements and methods to weight loss, no different then any of the other fad diets. It is all about the all mighty dollar and not the well being of the people.
  • More than 90 percent of beer is water, just a thought. lol :drinker:
  • The serving size refers to 1/4 dry (uncooked) product, this is the equivalent of 3/4 cup (+/-) cooked rice. The calories will be the same with a variants of the ingredients you're using to cook the rice.
