  • "SO Delicious" Almond Milk Chocolate. It's WAY better than any dairy iced cream, I adore it! http://sodeliciousdairyfree.com/products/almond-milk-frozen-desserts/chocolate
  • I don't think so - OP's serving size also seemed to be 1 cookie. Unless you mean the peanut butter. I took it down to a little over 1/3 of a cup and that got it closer. Wonder if they will be the same though. And that doesn't account for the difference in sugar. Edit: I took the white sugar down to 6 teaspoons only, that…
  • The unsweetened original almond milk is pretty much the most delicious drink ever. Plus, it's high in calcium and has some good healthy fat. How is that useless?
  • I'm inputting the recipe into MFP (and halving it) and coming out with a very different calorie/sugar count for the cookies! Mine says: 91 calories each cookie, with 8 grams of sugar and 5g of fat! That's very different from 68 cals 2.9g fat and 4.3g of sugar in the original post. The peanut butter is Maranatha creamy (no…
  • Just made these, not too bad! I used rolled oats instead of white flour, making them into oat flour in my coffee grinder. Worked great! Added 1/2 tsp vanilla extract and cinnamon. I think I can use a bit less baking powder next time. Maybe 1/2 tsp. They seemed to have too much sodium because they are sitting like a rock in…
  • I have some gut issues, low back pain and who doesn't have some phobias, eh? I eat very little to no pasta/bread/wheat in a day.
  • I lost 50 pounds and have been maintaining that for at least a year and a half now and I still have a "cheat" day every weekend. ALL DAY! "Cheat" means different things to different people. For me, I exercise more that day and still try to keep my calories within a reasonable range of my normal goal. "Cheating" *usually*…
  • Deflated, but I can't tell if saggier because they are 2 cup sizes smaller. I do plenty of chest exercises. I'm just 36 years old and lost 50 pounds! Chest exercises can only do so much. :) I'll tell you what though - I love them now more than ever!
  • I went down two cup sizes when I lost my weight. I LOVE it - boyfriend hates it. But they are mine to love so, nyah! They are so comfortable and fit in clothes so nicely now! And they are so cute. :D
  • It changes - I get on kicks where I just ravenously eat a certain food. Right now it's brussels sprouts roasted with balsamic vinegar! YUM!!
  • I still have my old SNES and N64 and Xbox 360. As I get older, the desire (and time!) to play has diminished but here are some of my favs of all time: Oddworld series Super Mario series Elder Scrolls series (Morrowind and Skyrim, specifically) Portal 1&2 The Walking Dead (from Telltale Games) Pac-Man Space Invaders Donkey…
  • I'm 5'9" and 123 pounds (down from 170, then up from 115). I'm slowly gaining muscle now. :) It all depends on how much muscle you have! I looked "fatter" at 115 pounds than I do now, because I was skinny fat and have since filled out with some muscle by weight training. So you can be 120 pounds and flabby/non muscular and…
  • Shakira. Ick.
  • I drink mine black now, too but I still throw some stevia in.
  • To all the people saying, "Don't eat things you don't like, DUH!" I have something to say. I HATED veggies my whole life. It's only now at 36 that I eat them. AND I LOVE THEM! I can't get enough of them, I swear! It's ALL because I ate them when I "didn't like" them. Cutting way back on sugar and refined grains helped,…
  • I force myself to wake up at 5AM and go to the gym before work. I know I'll NEVER do it after, I'm too tired and just want to flop on the couch. I do go for a small walk after work but that's it. After a while you get used to getting up early. I am anything but a morning person, trust me.
  • I'm 5'9" and my original goal weight was 140 pounds but I passed that and ended up at 115. I'm gaining some back (on purpose, yes - want some muscle!) and am now at 122 and it looks good. I'd still like more muscle so I am not worried at all about the scale now, except to hopefully make it go up! I think what weight looks…
  • I lose 50 pounds and I did have a good amount of loose skin at first but it's been getting better! It's been over a year and I see a definite improvement. It also depends on your age. At 36, I may "tighten up" slower than a 20 year old. I wouldn't worry about it too much, loose skin is better than all that extra weight,…
  • Personally, I consider it healthy to eat as many whole foods as possible. I try to fill my diet with lots of veggies, some fruit, lean meats and leave out most of the pre-packaged and sugary foods. Edit: Oh and non-food wise, it's healthy to exercise in some way! Cardio, lifting, whatever gets you off your butt.
  • Oh, forgot to mention - I only baked it for 25 minutes instead of the recommended time. 25 is plenty!
  • Update: Changes I made: I used 2 eggs and 2 egg whites (instead of 3 whites and 1 egg) I added 1/4 cup of unsweetened applesauce I added 1/4 cup white granulated sugar It's delicious! The sugar, even though it's just a little, gave it that added hint of sweetness and either the applesauce or the extra yolk made it a bit…
  • I only stopped when my boyfriend finally threatened to leave me if I didn't. It wasn't just the threat, though - he helped me learn and utilize better ways to cope with my feelings (or lack thereof) than self harm. He was there for all the 3 AM freak-outs and craziness. He didn't just threaten, he helped make self harm…
  • Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breast Oatmeal Bananas Sweet Potatoes Fresh, Raw Spinach Almond Milk Eggs Plain Greek Yogurt Fish Cauliflower
  • I will, thanks! I like it enough that I want to make it again. :)
  • That's what I was thinking. Next time I'll add some applesauce, thanks. :D
  • I actually liked it - just made it today but baked it shorter than the 40 minutes, more like 25-30 mins. My only problem is it's very dry and while I don't mind it not too sweet, my boyfriend will hate it. I may have to add sugar next time. Anyone know how to make it a bit more moist?
  • Just look at his picture! :) Two heads are better than one!
  • Female trying to gain. Now that I eat healthy, I find it very difficult to eat enough calories to gain muscle! I'm also afraid of gaining more fat after losing 50 pounds. I think that "chubby girl" inside me is very hard to get rid of and she freaks out when I gain a pound. But I've gone up almost 7 pounds - though that's…
  • Replying to watch the thread and see who the guinea pigs will be. I want to know if this is good! Sounds interesting. :D
  • I have! I was in maintenance for months and now I'm actually trying to gain weight and still stay on MFP. I don't see myself ever stopping, I really like logging my food, knowing what's going into my body every day.
