Lower carb/high protein pizza crust?
Anyone found a good recipe for a lower carb/higher protein pizza crust? Doesn't have to be gluten free or yeast free. I do have some soy flour on hand at home....thinking of using that. I saw one with just eggs, cream cheese, and parm cheese but I don't think I would like that texture..... Currently I use a Challah (egg)…

Trouble getting minimum protein
I've always done the high protein/low carb thing for weight loss and it works for me. I've lost 30lbs that way (I had surgery though recently and gained some weight back during recovery which I'm trying to lose again). Based on calculations, I need about 65gms or protein minimum a day but I feel like I can never hit that…

boiled egg + soy sauce?
Wow. Just wanted to share. I don't really like eggs but I've been trying to eat them more. Brought a boiled egg with me today to work, but forgot salt and pepper to sprinkle on it. But I did have a packet of soy sauce in my desk from a previous sushi meal. OMG it was tasty. I mean, I just dipped it lightly with each bite,…

Would this be rude?
I work a rotating shift at work, 1/3 of the time I'm up at 4:30AM for my earliest shift (3 of every 9 weeks). I tried working out after work and before bed on this shift and it doesn't work due to the heat in the summer. I don't have a gym membership. I want to get up and skip rope for 20-30 min in my yard before I shower…

Getting up early = more hungry?
I work a rotating shift, starting some weeks as early as 7AM, some weeks as late as 4PM. I find that the weeks I start at 7AM (which requires me to get up at 4AM) I am way more hungry and have trouble eating well. Anyone else notice this? For example, this morning I had a coffee around 4:30AM. I left for work at 5:20, got…

Painting?
Any idea how I should log painting? I was painting the master bedroom for 4 hours today. Obviously not super insane physical activity, but I did break a sweat and got the heart pumping most of the time. I was thinking of using "cleaning" as it's about the same.

Anyone else TTC (trying to conceive)?
I'm looking for friends who are in the same TTC boat as me, as I think our requirements for food and exercise can sometimes be unique. Because of TTC, I won't use anything artificial (no fake foods, no fake sweeteners) which can sometimes make it harder to eat because I won't use any of the low cal food options due to…

exercise in the heat?
Any suggestions for fitting in exercise in the heat (non-gym)? I just moved to a new city where there are no affordable gyms (no YMCA near by) and I work a rotating schedule. Some days I work really early (4AM) and can only workout in the afternoon, when it's really hot. I have heat aggrivated asthma so I'm looking options…

Only allowed hot foods (no smoothies, salads, sandwiches)
I previously lost 30 lbs eating a lot of salads with grilled meats, some sandwiches, protein shakes/smothies in the morning and calorie counting when I want a treat like pizza, etc. I was doing high protein/low carb. I've gained back a bit (7 lbs) and want to lose that plus the last 10-15 I originally wanted to lose. We…

Selective Eating Disorder?
I'm trying to get back on the bandwagon here, but I'm having a bit of a problem with the last 15 and hit a plateau since Jan 2011. I lost 27 lbs using LoseIt but I like this program/interface much better. I suspect i have a Selecting Eating Disorder - specifically, I have a huge phobia of many foods and food parts so there…
