Hit my macro goals today – all delish
~ Calories 70 under.
~ Protein 9 g over.
No real movement – unanticipated cortisone shot in my foot / ankle for “Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome” and completely numb foot and ankle for 9 hours. Still feels crazy.
Tomorrow is another day for the gym and more steps.
Loving seeing everyone’s posts and comments –…Read More

    I have been using Lillie Eats & Tells recipes to meal prep and they generally have REALLY good macro components and high protein, lower calorie ideas. I am dairy free so she also has great options there too. Her cookbooks are amazing but a little pricey. She has lots of free recipes that she posts on her blog and webpage if you sign up for her…Read More

      Oh no… did I bring up something that is polarizing?🤷‍♀️ I don’t follow social stuff too much but I heard about it on a podcast and it has helped us get rid of all the ice cream in our house!

    Google the Ninja Creami – I think it has a cult following! LOL I haven’t had it, but Brad used to do posts on IG of his recipes so he can explain it I am sure. It is an appliance which makes ice cream from your custom frozen ingredients. You can make the ice cream from protein powder, milk or plant based milk, can put in mix-ins, cookies,…Read More

    All I do is freeze my protein powder in Fairlife milk. Then I use the ninja creami to make it like a soft serve ice cream texture. My kids and I love it because that all I use it for. It helps my kids and I get extra protein in a fun way. But we are super basic and just do vanilla and chocolate.

I need to start paying more attention to my fiber intake. Any suggestions for easy ways to up that?

  YES! I’ve been tracking my fiber for about a year. Doctor recommended me a high fiber diet. Which is always the way to go. Just had to have pain to realize it 🙄 brown lentils are incredible! If you can make a soup with them. Omg you’ll be golden. But now on a regular day to day obviously vegetables but I like to add in an apple, avocado is gre…Read More

  I add All Bran nugget cereal (1/4 cup) to my Greek yogurt and to protein oatmeal. I also use Ole high fiber wraps for ‘bread’, wraps, snacks. Between those 2 near daily foods, berries and veggies I usually hit about 40 gm of fiber.

    I don’t eat a ton of bread because I don’t love it, so a high fiber wrap might be a great addition to my diet. Thanks for the ideas!

  Popcorn has more than most snacks so it’s a good way to sneak a little extra in

I finished today’s goals. Also day 2 no wine. I definitely need to resume my walks now that my husband is home. I am literally a sedentary shut-in otherwise because I work remotely from home. It’s been a real double-edged sword these past 4 years. I also need to meal plan and stop eating random stuff to meat my protein goals 🤣

  Day 2 no wine, good for you! With Ingrid we have a great “wine substitute” for night time. We take Grape Zevia and put frozen cherries and a touch of cherry juice in. Served in a wine glass, it satisfies the craving 🤣

    Yes, I’m going to have to find a way to meal prep for next week for sure. I just have such an aversion to leftovers 🤢

Had to guesstimate today. Went out to lunch with a friend so I’m sure my numbers are off but at least I am keeping consistent with tracking even if it’s not 100% correct.

I just looked back at my last three days of logging and it looks like my fiber is good but I’m low in potassium and iron. I don’t eat meat except fish occasionally so I expected the iron but what foods are good for potassium that you all eat?

  I get some iron from eggs, beets and spinach. I don’t eat a lot of red meat either. I’ve always considered supplementing. Probably should

  Same Mandy!! I make dairy free Greek yogurt for breakfasts and sometimes snacks. I add protein powder for breakfast, and usually some bran cereal for crunch for both. The berries make these sooooo yummy.
