Almond Butter...?
Does anyone have a low-calorie, semi-easy recipe for Almond Butter? I keep reading on my news feed about how awesome it is, and I want to try it now! Also, anyone have the general nutrition info for almond butter?

sharing recipe's i build...?
I built a soup recipe into MFP and checked the button to make it available to the public so my sister-in-law could find the recipe and log it (since we made a big pot of soup and split it between us). The problem is she can't find the recipe I built for the soup. When I try to do a search for it I can't find it either - i…

protein and fiber...?
Is it a bad thing to go over your protein and fiber "allowances"...? I didn't set my allowances -- MFP automatically did that for me, but I usually always go over my fiber allowance, and sometimes I go over my protein allowance as well. Thoughts on that?

2012 Progress Pics (WW to MFP)!!
I began my journey in March 2012 after my picture was taken for a bulletin board at work that would be on display for the entire organization (bottom right picture). I took one look at it and say "who is THAT...?" Let me preface the rest of this post by saying that I'm trying to lose weight not because I was irresponsible…

I think I pulled a muscle...
I think I pulled a muscle in my left leg. When I walk, I can't extend my leg all the way - so I'm walking with a bent knee (if that makes sense). I can't straighten my leg all the way without forcing it - and in turn it hurting. It feels tight and extremely sore. It hurts to cross that leg over my other one (probably from…

Vegetarian Whole Wheat Flatbread Pizza
Last night I made two amazing flatbread pizzas. I think what I like most about creating and trying new recipes is (besides enjoying them myself) watching my family try them, like them, and eat healthier! Anywho, if you’d like to give the recipe a try, here it is! I’ll write the recipe for ONE pizza, but I normally make TWO…

Cinnamon Banana Smoothie
Here's a recipe for a very simple smoothie I concocted up this week. It's kinda "bland" but still sweet, and was very filling and yummy! I can't wait to make more! I made this for breakfast and drank it up until it was time for lunch! It definitely kept me going through my busy morning! Cinnamon Banana Smoothie Serves: 1…

What should be added...?
I have to go shopping this week to replenish my healthy food stash. Does anyone have any low-calorie, healthy, or snack type of foods they would recommend? Keep in mind I'm a vegetarian, so that might limit a few things... Thank you for all your help in advance! :flowerforyou:

Jalapeno Cornbread
I was just given a recipe for Jalapeno Cornbread -- the perfect combo of sugar and spice (literally). I posted it on my MFP blog which you can check out here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/sunnshhiine/view/jalapeno-cornbread-440862 ALSO, if you're a vegetarian (like myself) I posted some ingredient substitutions to make…

what do you do...?
Do you allow yourself one cheat day a week or a month at all? Or are you super strict with your diet? When I did WW, I was super strict all throughout the week, and then Sundays were my cheat day --- I allowed myself to have one meal of my choice (without going overbaord, of course). If you have a cheat day --- do you have…

Anyone tried this...?
Just curious if anyone has ever tried the 7-day Cabbage Soup Diet and had success? I have done it twice (the first time I cheated half-way through and the second time I successfully completed it). I saw weight-loss both times I did it, and I believe I maintained what I lost --- at first. And then I cheated and started…

Down 20 pounds, 25-ish to go!
I just joined MFP last week after hearing the success stories from several friends who use this program. I lost 20 pounds earlier this year by doing Weight Watchers; however, I also worked out between 5-10 hours a week, so I'm convinced I actually lost more weight but didn't know it because I was gaining muscle weight in…
