Best vegan pizza recipes?
Preferably low calorie; I'm interested in vegan cheese: never tried it. However the pizza doesn't have to include cheese.
Too many calories left over, but not hungry. Do I eat anyway?
I have a lot of calories left, I only ate about 600 calories today. I'm not hungry. Do I eat just to eat? I can't log out because my calorie goal is too low. :/ btw, it's quite late: around dinner time. EDIT: This is not a typical day for me! I usually reach my calorie goals.
How to measure out serving sizes?
Hello, as much as I love making food: I have a hard time determining the serving size per container/per person. Some cans/ foods have it; others don't. If a can of chickpeas says 3.5 cups per container, how many servings is that per person ? (0.5 cup per serving) I used Goya chickpeas. I think my calories are inaccurate?…
Lightly Active or Not very active?
I'm trying to adjust my calories. Am I lightly active or not very active at all? 3x a week: 3,000-4500 steps per day(sometimes 5,000+ but not often) Dancing: 3x a week: 30 minutes- I sweat a bit but the workout isn't intense. Dancing: 3x a week: 80 minutes(1hr, 20 minutes)- sweating, not super intense but of course more…
Thinking of upping my calories, need some suggestions?
Hello all. I need your suggestions. I have about 30-35 pounds left to lose. Lately, I've been feeling hungrier(most be due to school stress). Anyway, I was thinking of upping my calorie goal by 100 calories. My calorie goal is set low, but I usually feel fine before/ once I reach it. Until more recently... What's your…
Losing weight while "eating what you want"?
So I've seen many "cheat day" threads, and I find it interesting that some people do cheat days while others don't. Instead of cheat days, they fit the meal in their calorie goal(which is fine btw). My question is: 1. Have you seen steady weight loss progress by doing this?(eating what you want as long as in calorie goal)…
Foods you've grown to love through your weight loss journey?
Any foods you hated/disliked before joining this app/before your weight loss that you love or tolerate now? Lol for me, mushrooms and beans are two that come to mind. After eating mostly plant-based(for many months) I've come to like beans a lot. And I used to hate mushrooms, but now I find them delicious! What about you?…

Quest Bars?
I've been meaning to try these+I definitely plan to purchase the protein powder. Questions are: 1. High in sugar? 2. Do they keep you full/not hungry for over an hour?(ex: post-workout snack) 3.

I looked at my macros and...my carbs are the highest! Suggestions?
As the title states... :/ do carbs=weight gain? I don't believe fully eliminating carbs will be the trick..here is the tricky thing though: I haven't been eating pasta or breads weekly(outside of cheat day) my question is: 1. Should I limit them? 2. Which category should be the highest? I eat mainly beans(chickpeas+red…

Normally, how many rest days do you take per week? I take 1 rest day, but is that too little? Do you generally take more rest days? I'm asking because I want to know a healthy amount of rest days.
Trying to go vegan/vegetarian for awhile...(recipes/ideas?)
I decided I wanted to stop eating meat for awhile.(giving up meat for some time) This isn't strictly for dietary reasons, but also for a healthier lifestyle. Yes, you can eat meat and be fit and lose plenty of weight, but I just want to add more veggies, and eat them instead. (If I don't eat only veggies, I may incorporate…
Accurate calorie burnt counter?
What do use to count the calories burnt after doing specific workouts? I heard calories burnt depends on a few factors: height, current weight, etc. I workout in many ways, but I only long in one way(eliptical machine); I don't know how many calories I burn for each crunch/wall sit/ etc I do. What's an accurate calorie…

Specifically: Shrimp, Broccoli and Brown Rice w/ Brown sauce? How much is one whole container? Not one cup, or half a cup or quarter cup! A whole portion?

Fitbit users?
Hello! I'm planning to buy the fitbit, but there are different types? Like some models are more expensive then others.(Fitbit charge, fitbit surge, etc) Which one would you recommend? I just want to count calories/steps and have a watch for the most part. Thanks.

Your favorite thigh workout for slimmer/toned thighs?
I workout on an elliptical trainer everyday, and my thighs are looking bigger...I want firmer(?), toned thighs. Right now, they are bulky and not toned.

Good, "healthy" protein/recovery bars?
These days after working out, I drink a protein drink or eat. Recently I discovered "Gatorade whey protein bars". I brought one in chocolate, caramel flavor.
