PROTEIN FOODS Locations

I (F46) eat in a 2 hour eating window either between 6-8pm or 5-pm. I'm not counting calories or macros, but trying to eat healthy and protein rich for at least 5 meals out of 7 weekly. I have 34 pounds left to go to my goal weight. I do 1-2 spin cycle classes and go on 3-4 long walks each week. I also plan to add 2 sessions if weight training. I love not thinking about food all th time and also love looking forward to eating a big meal at night. Just a post to encourage.

Fell victim to this cookie😭 So **** I didn’t check the ingredients, I’m anaphylactic to peanuts. This is your warning!

**This chickpea pizza crust is absolutely revolutionary and perfect for plant-based pizza lovers!** I was skeptical about chickpea crust at first, but this recipe has completely converted me. The texture is incredible - crispy and golden on the edges while staying tender in the center. It holds toppings beautifully and delivers a nutty, satisfying flavor that's completely different from traditional wheat crusts but equally delicious. https://preview.redd.it/lko2d6xqbn7f1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c5da8545241a90aaaba70bc75c1a005d6b89e47f The technique is surprisingly simple. I blend canned chickpeas with all-purpose flour, olive oil, garlic powder,...

It’s nothing fancy, but it’s cheap, filling, & disability-friendly (no prep, mostly passive cooking, little cleanup). The pastes & sauces raise the cost per serving (total of \~$0.30 - $0.50/serving) but are totally worth it to make otherwise super simple, cheap meal delicious. **Ingredients:** split pigeon peas (dry, \~1.5 cups), black beans (canned, \~ 1 cup), basmati rice (pre-cooked, 1 bag), arugula (1 handful), 1/2 corn cob (leftovers from dinner with a friend), hot sauce (La Botanera or other vinegar-based brand, \~4 tbsp), sazon (1/4 cube), white aged miso paste (1/4 tsp), curry brick (1 row, medium-hot), plus garlic powder, onion flakes, & basil to taste ...

M 82kg 5’10. I used to consume around 70–90g of protein/day based on my bodyweight and activity level. Now I’m aiming for 130–150g daily, spread across 2 meals with a couple of high protein snacks and a supplement, to help keep muscle retention while focusing on a steady cut. I actually managed to hit the 130g protein target a few days a couple of weeks ago, but I struggled to balance carbs and protein around training. I think low carbs affected my sessions and made me fatigue pretty early. I’ll be starting the cut again in about two weeks and want to get the structure right this time. Any advice on balancing protein and carbs while cutting without losing performance? And how do ...

I did not gain any weight in my 1st year so I thought I escaped the dreaded Freshman 15, however I am now in my 2nd semester of my 2nd year and I've gained \~9 pounds... To be fair the dining hall allowed me to have a balanced diet (fruit, veggies, proteins, etc.), but now that I have to clean, grocery shop, and cook my own food, my diet mainly consists of chips and bread - so I guess it's my fault lol

Hi! Looking for recs for event catering (baby shower) . Shower is in NW DC and later in the afternoon so Ideally looking to have one of those large grazing boards with a variety of items and maybe a dessert option (\~50 people). Was planning to supplement some items from Costco/Whole Foods. Anyone have DC caterer recs that won’t completely break the bank. Thank you!!

My onederland post yesterday got a ton of attention. Thank you SOOOOO much to this entire community for all of the support and kind words. You all have no idea, I never would have made it this far without each and every one of you! So much support and guidance came from this group. So many slow days at work researching Zepbound and how to obtain it without insurance coverage. So many late nights researching side effects and remedies. So many achievement posts I aspired to replicate. You guys did this for me just as much as I did it for myself. So, again, thank you all so much for this wonderful community I get to be a part of. I just remembered that I saved a pair of my old jeans. I always ...

tl;dr nothing particularly interesting, probably, but my regurgitation of what I've learned and applied. I started lifting back in July. Took a few months off from October to December then started again. Male, 31, 210, 22% bodyfat, neurodivergent (this is relevant). These are my reflections after 8 months of this. **0. Enjoying working out is king.** I love this hobby. I love going to the gym. I think about bench pressing all day on days I know I get to bench. Working out is a game to me of connecting with my body, building robustness, and watching numbers go up (for now). I have some posts on here about "connecting with my meat skeleton" but they're only half jokes. ...

A few months ago I kept running into the same frustrating problem. I’d pick up something at the grocery store, scan it with whatever food app I had, and get one of two useless outcomes either the product wasn’t in the database at all and I got a blank result, or it was in the database and all I got was a basic nutrition table that told me nothing about whether what I was actually eating was good for me. Calories and macros are fine. But they don’t tell you if something is ultra-processed. They don’t flag additives. They don’t tell you the NOVA classification. And they definitely don’t work on regional or local brands that nobody has bothered adding to any database yet. So we b...

Hi everyone! I started Zepbound six weeks ago and wanted to see if anyone else has had a similar experience. I was on 2.5 mg for the first month and lost about 5 lbs, which I was happy with, but the food noise never really went away. My doctor suggested moving up to 5 mg, and I’m now on my second dose at that level. So far, though, I haven’t noticed much change with appetite or food noise, and I haven’t lost any additional weight in the past two weeks. I’ve been making tons of changes to my eating habits and paying close attention to what I’m eating (focusing mostly on higher-protein meals), but I’m still feeling pretty much the same in terms of hunger and cravings. A few peop...

Made cottage cheese chicken salad with banana peppers tonight and honestly it hit the spot way harder than I expected. I've been trying to find more high-protein stuff that doesn't feel like diet food, and this actually tasted like something I'd order at a deli. Wasn't sure about the cottage cheese thing at first since I usually just eat it plain, but blending it makes it super creamy. Anyway, wrote down what I did here: [https://www.amgroyal.com/cottage-cheese-chicken-salad-banana-peppers-easy-dinner](https://www.amgroyal.com/cottage-cheese-chicken-salad-banana-peppers-easy-dinner) Here's what I used: 1 cup rotisserie chicken, chopped into small chunks �...

I’m thinking about starting keto but am worried I’ll gain everything back once I get off and reintroduce carbs. Last year I was on a clean eating/Whole Foods, calorie deficit diet that I don’t think was too different from keto and lost 40 pounds but in October fell off the band wagon and gained almost all of it back. For breakfast I’d have things like egg whites, Greek yogurt, berries, and avocados. For lunch honestly I’d get lazy and just eat a low carb lean cuisine of some sort like the health choice Greek style chicken protein bowls. And for dinner I’d have a protein with either white rice, quinoa, sweet potatoes, etc. Other foods I’d have would be black beans, cottage chees...

I am a 23 year old male with autism, OCD and Tourette syndrome. I take 18 mg of methylphenidate, vitamin d, iron and b supplements. I barely eat any food. I withdrew from risperidone, clomipramine, benztropine and quetiapine by lowering the dose every 3 days.I had a concussion when I was 18 which I think contributed to the tremors. The tremors can occur when I feel intense emotion or just happen. I can’t tell if I hit my head or shake it sometimes. Please help me, I can’t do anything and it’s ruining my life. Any advice regarding what institutions to go to, thinking habits, foods, medicines (I want to avoid antipsychotics, antidepressants, anticholinergics and benzodiazepines) would be...

Lost 22 lbs on semaglutide and felt worse — turns out I'd lost almost 8 lbs of muscle Three months in I started noticing something the scale wasn't showing me. I felt softer. Weaker on stairs. Clothes looser but not in a way that felt earned. Got an InBody scan at my gym mostly out of curiosity. Found out I'd lost 8 lbs of lean muscle alongside 14 lbs of fat. Genuinely rattled me. So I spent the next few weeks going deep on research trying to understand what happened. Here's what I found: Lean tissue apparently accounts for 25–40% of weight lost on semaglutide in most studies. The STEP trials didn't emphasize it but sub-analyses flagged it — particularly fo...
