PROTEIN FOODS Locations

Ive always been overweight, and recently I was in the hospital and because I was so sick I actually lost some weight. So once I got out, and was able to be happy and healthy after not being able to be active for so long, I figured the lost weight is a great starting point to lose MORE weight. I've had some weight drops before but they were products of unhealthy methods, but this time around I am older and wiser and I've done real research on nutrition and exercise and losing weight actually feels obtainable and like a change I want to make for myself, without harming myself. My partners are characters, because it feels like every other week they're like, "kids, we **** t...

I’m not talking about Keto, Intermittent Fasting, or any of those diets that make you feel like you're in a nutritional prison. I’m talking about something I discovered by pure accident when I was wondering: Why do I eat a small meal and feel like I'm starving just two hours later? And why do I sometimes eat more but stay full for hours? The answer was simply the order of food within a single meal. Start with veggies and protein. Then, eat your carbs. That’s literally it. No change in portions. Same food. Roughly the same calories. The difference? Your blood sugar spikes slowly instead of crashing dynamically, meaning you don't get those insane hunger pangs an hour later...

Clean-label pet food is becoming one of the strongest trends in the pet industry in 2026. More dog owners are no longer just looking at brand names or packaging design. Instead, they are focusing on what is actually inside the food. This shift is pushing companies to simplify formulas and make ingredient lists easier to understand. Clean-label basically means fewer unnecessary ingredients, no artificial colors or flavors, and more recognizable components like real meat sources and simple vegetables or grains. Owners today are more aware of how diet affects digestion, energy levels, skin condition, and even behavior in dogs. Because of this awareness, many pet brands are adjusting their...

I 20M have been struggling to gain weight my entire life. Growing up, I was always clinically underweight. I didn’t have an eating disorder or any appetite issues. I was just that thin. Last October, I decided I was tired of it and began a massive bulk. I was 132lbs at 6”0. I started at about 3400 cal daily and I started to gain about 3lbs a month. It wasn’t much, but I was happy with it regardless. I was gaining at a pretty steady rate until mid March where I just flatlined at 153-155lbs. I was even steadily increasing my calorie count. I think I was at 4000 at this point and I tried increasing it to 4400 but my weight wouldn’t budge. After 6 weeks of no gain. I got exhausted and ga...

Trying to fool people into thinking they are buying local?

I think this is the part of fitness nobody really talks about enough. Not the workouts themselves, honestly the gym part is whatever at this point. The frustrating part is putting actual effort in for weeks and weeks and then looking in the mirror and feeling like absolutely nothing changed. Ive been going consistently for around 5 months now. Eating better too. Cut down junk food, stopped drinking soda all the time, trying to hit protein goals even tho I’m tired of chicken at this point lol. And yeah I feel a little stronger maybe, but physically? I still look pretty much the same to me. Meanwhile online you got people posting insane transformations in like 90 days and it kinda mess...

This started as a cut. The first goal was health and aesthetics: lose fat, bring body weight under control, and get to a look I could maintain without guessing. Once I got there, the problem changed. I did not want to keep cutting forever. I wanted to hold the look, train well, and then move into a very slow lean gain. The goal now is simple: eat enough to train and gain muscle, but not so much that the waist and visual leanness rise with the scale. The hard part is not the chart. It is getting the data. I use an OpenClaw agent in my texting app as the capture layer. At night it asks for missing health signals: sleep, mood, energy, activity, hunger, and a quick body-composition read. I c...

So, this: https://preview.redd.it/q0bf8oestk2h1.png?width=1920&format=png&auto=webp&s=1775515a91e73656a18496123a79b4401bfdc156 I don't understand. If I'm using 16% fruit, 7% meat, and 14% nuts, how come I'm using up 0.6 fruits, 1.2 meat, and 0.7 nuts? Am I just not understanding what those numbers are referring to?

So yummy! Last time I had one was in 2018! Does anyone remember???

Hey all, I am new to dehydrating but I am worried about food security given the US-Iran war and the Strait of Hormuz. I'm trying to learn a bit about food preservation and I learned that you can dehydrate meat in some cases, like ground beef and chicken ****** when the meats are very lean. I also want to dehydrate certain vegetables and learn about that but I think protein is a priority. I'd also like to learn to can but I haven't bought a pressure canner yet. Anyhow, the videos I've seen on YouTube mention using regular canning jars and vacuum sealing the dehydrated foods. Well, I was at the thrift shop and I found one. It's rechargeable and it started working in t...

I am only four shots in (at 1mg of tirz), and already experiencing hair loss. I’m pretty prone to telegen effluvium and experienced quite a big shed last year from a completely different medication. It was very discouraging and I never fully recovered the volume. Hair loss was my biggest concern and I’m close to tears thinking about having to stop. This medication has been incredible so far. Admittedly, I’m having difficulty hitting my protein goal of 80g a day. I’m probably getting closer to 50 or 60. I’m supplementing with 20mg protein shakes to try to get there. I have MCAS and am sensitive to high histamine foods so certain meats/cheeses are off limits for me and red meat is ...

Most of the advice on GLP-1 protein is pretty much yogurt, eggs, cottage cheese and shakes. Helpful for some people but not everyone can do those. Let’s make a dairy-free, egg-free, shake-free list. Some ideas that come to mind: * Crackers and chicken salad * Wrap with slices of turkey * Salmon or tuna pouches * Rice with Prawns * Miso soup with tofu * Lentil Soup Edamame * Pita with bean dip Turkey meatballs * Chicken soup rice * Turkey or chicken with hummus * Potatoes with soft fish * Tempeh if you like it * peanut butter on toast. not super high protein but it helps * Add rice or noodles to bone broth . My easiest is chicken soup with rice because it tastes like real food, but not t...

Regular soy sauce often contains wheat, which makes it unsafe for many people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. I uploaded label photos of Bragg Liquid Soy Seasoning / Liquid Aminos, which is labeled gluten-free and can be used as a soy sauce alternative. It still contains soy, so it is not safe for soy allergy. There are also other gluten-free soy sauce and tamari options, including Kikkoman Gluten-Free Soy Sauce, San-J Gluten-Free Tamari, Lee Kum Kee Gluten Free Soy Sauce, Yamasa Organic Tamari Gluten-Free, and Eden Foods Organic Tamari. Gluten-free soy sauce options already exist. More restaurants, takeout places, and brands should make them easier to find, label, and offer. ...

Hey everyone. Wanted to share this as a heads up for anyone who has purchased Smalls cat treats. Before our cat could eat them we discovered a sharp bone or straw fragment inside one of the treats. We aren't experts, so we can't really tell. Me and my mom think it's straw, but a bone makes sense to. Not a small piece. Sharp enough to pose a serious choking and organ perforation risk. We contacted Smalls and they essentially only offered to send us another bag and for us to send them the treat so they could "look into it". They didn't offer a store credit, or a free gift bag, just what I already purchased. The bare minimum. Me and my mom perdict it's b...

32M, 5”10. Lost 170lb from last year (without a GLP-1). Went from 390 -> 220 from March 3 2025 to January 10 2026. Weight stalled, food noise became insane, gained 10lb back in feb-March. Got my bloodwork done then hopped on reta and GHKCU at the start April, starting at 2mg and now I’m at my lowest at 197.7, currently 2mg twice a week. I weight train 5-6 times a week and do 250-300 minutes of cardio a week… at least I did until my nagging fatigue came back. Bloodwork was otherwise normal other than slightly lower WBC, 2.9 (doctor said it’s genetic.) Basically, my workouts have been awful. Tired the entire time, my diets on point, 180-200g protein daily, around 50 or so of d...

Sometimes it’s not fat gain at all: * water retention * constipation * hormones * low protein * not enough strength training What was your biggest “oh wow, THAT was the reason?” moment during your GLP-1 journey?
