date maybe or brand, I love this brand personally

Tonight we made homemade Shrimp Alfredo with mushrooms & Broccoli plus we had a big salad! We also used Shirataki noodles to make it more healthy and instead of heavy cream used skim milk in the pasta sauce!

I find storing them in the fridge will cut down the smell when you open them, give them a really good rinse and dry with papertowels and you will be golden! They are a great alternative for many things, spaghetti included!

That looks amazing! So when is dinner? :lol:

I spend a great deal of my day sitting. I am a 3d artist and I work for myself. Before covid, I was doing things in the wrestling business. I find myself sitting A LOT now. I had to actually force myself to do it first thing when I wake up, have coffee, scroll through Facebook/MFP or whatever and I allow myself ONE HOUR…

True real noodles are! lol Personally if I found if you store them in the fridge then give them a good rinse before eating them it doesn't have a real bad smell/taste :smile:

Yes same! I can rinse them in super hot water and toss them with whatever and they are perfect!

Thank you, here are my last side by side by sides I got recently its all up and up from here :wink:

Thank you! I was able to get off the BP meds But, recently my doctor offered the phen again to help give me a boost since I have been doing all this hard work! I didn't wanna do it again but at this point, after 6 years ill take a boost My doc is right though, I've been working hard I know good vs bad foods I can control…

I found them here for $2.79 a bag and the local store has wellness Wednesdays in the health market which gives an extra 10% off health market items! I recently made Swedish meatballs and put them over the Shirataki noodles, it was perfect! Also made some homemade beef lo mein! Miracle noodles are just a nickname but here…

yeah their unlimited salad and unlimited broccoli and you can even do a lettuce bun with your sandwich instead of an actual bun but they have grain buns too @lemurcat2 !! They even do sweet potato fries and other stuff but the salad/broccoli is unlimited to replace the fries. I like doing the lettuce bun then stocking up…

My husband and I have a place close by that usually do a buffet and it was one of our cheat meal go-to places. They haven't reopened to the public yet but they are doing contactless delivery and pickup only still So we been ordering from them 2-3 times a month but only when we deserve it and are good with our meals all the…

The next thing I want to make is homemade ramen with it. I always make my soup/ramen/stew broths from scratch Ramen takes the longest at 10-14 hours but its worth it when its done! Then tossing some chicken or beef or pork in there with a ton of veggies it would work! Have any of you used the macaroni kind of Shirataki?…

@helaurin not sure how either but fitbit says I do! Remember a person who weighs more burns more even just sitting around. I do spend a lot of my time at a desk myself typing/gaming/doing art and whatever I scoop litter boxes and clean the house and cook and meal prep a lot too I have even been working on spring cleaning…

@standy73 I been on my journey for just over 5.5 years now, I haven't had surgery but I am one pound away from losing 230lbs total... I could have lost more yes but everyone has setbacks, so you can't beat yourself up when you gain or something doesn't go right, as long as you don't fall off the wagon completely and keep…

I will have to look into that, thanks! and thank you!

salad and cottage cheese is a thing I love too and tossing pickled beets on top with fresh black pepper, yum! no need for dressing!

Chinese food or sushi!!

I went through an 18oz jar in 4 days and I just bought more :blush:

If you have a Fitbit it tells you how much you burn every day It can be done I lose about 10-15lbs in a month when I kick *kitten* enough I burn on average sitting on my butt 2200-2400 calories a day If I toss in house cleaning and a workout and keeping busy I can easily burn more than 3000 The smaller and less you weigh…

As of the last bit yes because Feb was our anniversary month. But it's not normally like that what so ever I usually make homemade ramen and other stuff but I got lazy this last bit when I went to the Asian market But if you actually go back to when I was actually eating less processed foods I was under 2500 or 2000mg of…

oh, I know and I have days like everyone else, lol. The thing is the week before last was my 16th wedding anniversary so my hubby and I spurlged and we had some leftovers into the following week or so. So we have been trying to get rid of them we don't eat processed foods all that often, just once in a while as a treat and…

They are a little higher on the calories but I need my fiber and protein :blush:

Don't give up on those good foods, just eat them in moderation and stay within your calorie goal! What my doc says, "you deprive yourself is it really worth it? are you enjoying and loving life as much as you can at that point? does it make you feel better? maybe for a day or two but then you will start hating yourself and…

buy a scale, weigh EVERYTHING Read the backs of all packaging while shopping to find serving sizes enter it all into MFP and input all your recipes into the recipe calculator here it works! that way you can make sure you are eating enough (females 1200 min cals a day) Also, stay away from processed foods they are the…

Thanks @prikoza !

Thank you @jennacole12 & @ggeise14 !!

My most recent side by side :smiley: 5.5 years still going, no surgery, hard work, blood, sweat, tears, injuries but getting there! still doing workouts at home for the last year due to COVID, had 5% fat loss and another 30lbs in the last 6 months even with a 6 week injury from Zumba that left me down and out! A1C is a 5…

Thanks, @Bluetail6 , @iradi8 , and @Fflpnari sorry I didn't reply sooner MFP was having issues where I would be logged in but every time I would go to the forum it would say I needed to log in again, and when I would try too it would just bounce me out altogether and not log me in, it was some ongoing issue but seems to be…
