Love this idea!

Mind you adding peanut butter will add sugar. But the shale itself has none

Dymatize iso 100 in gourmet chocolate. Mix with water ( i use a little less than recommended so its sweet and not watered down )and I add a scoop of peanut butter. Shake. Yummmm. Lots of protein and no sugar, low calorie, etc.

What about going meatless?

Dymatize iso 100 in gourmet chocolate is so good and has lots of protein! Without lots of cals, sugar etc

Sorry so long! Hope some of these ideas sound good to you!

I lost roughly the same thing and I've gained it back. Changed jobs, got in a new relationship, moved etc. You can make amazing CLEAN meals if you prep it in advance. I hate the bland food and I love to cook and experiment with food to make it taste amazing. Some things need to be in moderation like carbs ( whole wheat or…

So sorry for what happened and what you are going through. . And good for you for seeking help. Be strong and feel free to message me if you need to vent or anything.

Pineapple is sweet and does it for me. If u really can't have a few pieces, talk to someone at the weigh in

Cauliflower pizza is great. If you want something quicker, wholewheat pita bread.

I like grapes kept in the fridge. Stays fresh and has a bit of a crunch. Anytime I open the fridge to look for a snack I usually start eating those. Cherries. Watermelon salad. Raw cashews.apples. red pepper hummus with vegetables. Edamame. Guacamole.

I'm the same. I have health issues and I still drink a lot on the weekend. At least 12 beers. I dont have the determination and willpower yet. Use this time to really research on the short & longterm effects of alcohol. Good luck!!!!

My boss has that. It was so bad when I first started working with her that she had to use a cane to walk and she wasn't even at 40 at the time. She goes to a rehab facility and does all kinds of exercises there a fewtimes a week. They got her on the right track and she walks perfectly fine now without a cane! The pain I'd…

If anyone would want to talk about this with me , you can message me. I'm wondering those that are not working , are you getting some sort of paycheque ( like from the government) to help you with fibro? I'm seeing a lot of people not working which scares me because I don't have savings, etc. And I am currently not working…

Use a measuring tape. You'll see a much better difference. From experience, even when I was eating clean and working out 6x a week, my scale barely moved. But my entire body lost inches. You can check out my embarassing before and after photo. Again, lose the scale. Measuring tape all the way.

I have other health issues as well. I understand your frustration! I actually get very depressed sometimes because I just want to feel better, ya know? I don't think I hit my calorie intake as I tend to sleep till around 2pm every day. If I wake any earlier (like right now haha) , I feel absolutely nauseous. I'm hoping…

Yeah I think that's what I've done wrong. I went for a long walk, ended up being sore for over a week and extremely 'sluggish'. Being practically bed ridden I've gained all the weight I had previously lost ( over 30lbs). I guess you could say I'm impatient at this point haha. I just want to be better!

Thank you I'll look into that group!!

Also quinoa ( i like this one cold ) with cut up raw spinach, onion, corn niblets, cut up cilantro, and I like this with lots of feta cheese. I do not have measurements so don't go crazy with spices etc. A little olive oil, a a little red wine vinegar ( or be a weirdo like me and just use white, I love the tangy taste),…

Quinoa with onion, beans, corn and mix in taco seasoning!!! Delicious. Can be eaten warm or cold. Definitely great for lunches and dinners.

By the way, I loved my protein drinks because I got dymatize ISO 100 in chocolate and i'd put a big ol' spoon of peanut butter and shake. Tastes like reeses. SO GOOOOD

Carbons2k, I feel for you. A lot of us feel this way. You cannot let it control you any longer. Now firstly, the thing with this girl. You may have thought you were ready for a relationship, but it is very clear that you have some things you need to work out before getting into that. You want to be in the right mind, right…

Cardio will not do anything. Target legs more than once a week if this is a troubled area. Do all the leg workout machines you can find at the gym, AND i find these the most important, do lunges and squats!!!!!! After a while if it feels like its getting easier, get that intensity up! I actually like to jump in the air and…

Your best bet is to get a juicer!!!!!!! Mix fruits and vegetables in the juicer, I promise it will taste delicious!

Agreed. Frozen veg here for a small bag is over $5 :(

When living with others, you are more likely to find trigger or junk foods and may cheat because of it. But if you love PB that much, why not have it as a treat!! 6x a week I would workout, and sometimes for the sole purpose of having my special treat after. Gourmet chocolate protein shake with a good scoop of peanut…

Yummy!!!!!

So I started at the end of January , today is my last day!!! I also wanted to share that I only workout from HOME. I stopped going to the gym due to moving and also weather conditions (lots of snow storms). I would have seen better results if I had been able to do every single exercise, and do carb cycling. I was not able…

Breakfast should never be under 100 cals! You need your PROTEIN, STARCH & VEGETABLES. You need this to help you get through the day! Consider breakfast as FUEL, same goes with other meals. Also noticed some are saying skip breakfast. Never skip breakfast! Why? Well, you want to lose weight dontcha? Your metabolism starts…

I dont have a loc cal recipe for Mac n Cheese, buuut im obsessed with this quinoa salad. Make quinoa , let it cool completely. Chop up some fresh cilantro, LOTS of fresh spinach, 1 can ( or fresh) of corn niblets, crumbled feta cheese, onion chives, olive oil, red wine vinegar ( I also add white vinegar but that's personal…
