PROTEIN FOODS Locations

My (28F) body fluctuates weight and composition pretty regularly. I don’t appear unhealthy, even on my larger end (and I do like the curves in some places when I am on the heavier side), but I prefer to sit on the smaller end. I am 5’6, \~140 lbs (I don’t own a scale, but did go to the physician lately). I don’t have a goal weight, but I do have a goal body that I want to see myself in again, and since I have done it before, I know it is achievable. I have always had a somewhat unhealthy approach to getting to that end point, though, and I would really like to do things the right way for once. My goal is to have less “fluff” around my middle, but not rail-thin, and I like how I l...

Just sharing info from Consumer Reports on additional protein shakes tested. Excited that two are ones I wanted to try! The whey protein shakes unfortunately don’t play nice with my GI system so safer plant-based products are particularly important to me. Note that the first article I posted 3 months ago did contain shakes recommended as having lower lead also. https://www.consumerreports.org/health/food-safety/these-five-protein-powders-had-low-lead-levels-a1151050701/

I saw a bag is scratch feed at tsc. Wondering if anybody uses it as a supplemental feed? Do you throw some in the yard or mix it with their food?

I've been fascinated by the growth in home kitchens over the past few years, abetted by changes in municipal policies. Over the past month, I've been to two: **1.** [**Camello**](https://eatcamello.com/)**,** a Mediterranean/Mexican run by u/RestaurantGuy95 who posts on here. When my wife and I went, it was out of his family house in West Adams but right now, it looks like he's posting up [over in East Hollywood](https://maps.app.goo.gl/xUMHgyZxEtc1C2kR7). His address is updated on his IG page (@eat.camello) but I can't link to it b/c of the sub's rules. I was intrigued by his (mostly) corn pita though, because I read too quickly, I didn't realize it...

Background: I'm diagnosed with ADHD and depression, among other things. My psych prescribed vyvanse 40mg last year to try and help with my weight loss + focus issues, as I am very overweight/obese at 178cm and ~99kg. It hasn't done a thing for my weight— in fact, I've got heavier. I also take amitriptyline for depression/insomnia/chronic pain. Issue: All day, every day, ALL I think about is food. It's like a bad nail biting habit. If I don't have food in my mouth, I go nuts. I can never "forget" to eat; I'm constantly thinking about my next snack/meal. I'm not even hungry 99% of the time, and I very rarely feel TRUE hunger because I'm cons...

I suspect my cats have food allergies. Not sure if it matters, but they're sisters. They've both been itchy, been to the vet a few times and can't find the cause. I thought maybe my room was too dry because it's Winter, so I bought a humidifier and it hasn't helped. One of them has also started puking a few times a week. I wanted to try and switch them to a single protein cat food, but it's so difficult to find any that also includes grains. Grain-free food scares me because of the possible link to heart disease. They eat dry food. If anyone has any recommendations PLEASE let me know.

Hi all, I built a fitness app—didn’t realize at the time that it would become one of the more developed apps by vibecoders 😄. I started it out of frustration with MyFitnessPal while trying to lose weight myself. The app is now used by 2k+ users in r/selfhosted, and I’m getting a lot of feature requests from the community. I’m looking for help to continue improving and enhancing it. If anyone is interested in contributing, please let me know. The app is available on GitHub. https://preview.redd.it/lcj0omxalleg1.png?width=1377&format=png&auto=webp&s=cea38b6eda0754942bc7f1bd965bfe6318c87cef

Hello! I am a 23F (5’6 128 lbs) and I’ve been going to the gym since I was about 18 but it wasn’t until the beginning of 2025 that I really took it seriously and was very consistent with my weight lifting and nutrition. I continue to progressive overload and eat almost my body weight in protein while eating at around maintenance or a slight deficit. I have seen significant growth in my upper body which I very proud of. However, despite going just as hard or even harder on my leg days, I barely see any growth in my lower body. I am always taking progress pics and am confused as to why I am not gaining any growth. I am either increasing my weight or reps on each exercise every week. ...

Didn't expect this fandom to be that dead

I'm not sure what this post is, a vent, asking for advice, getting thoughts out? Who knows? not me I started mounjaro in August and so far have lost about 20kg and have kind of made it into double digits which I am so happy about. On December 23rd I was 100kg and currently I am 98kg but have been going up and down between 98kg and about 102kg since December.. I'm on 10mg but at my last Dr appointment I asked to be lowered down to 7.5mg which starts next week - I'm still not sure if this is a good idea. I asked for my dose to be put down because my ADHD meds have been increased and so I'm also getting a bit of suppression from that. On top of that I have ARFID and autism...

So basically I rescued this baby like month ago. He has lots of bones, protein mix, his diet is i would say colorful. But his shell looks like this. can this get better by itself ? i mean with good care/ good food/ enough Ca? I also rescued his brother but his shell doesnt look that bad... HELP what should i do? should i be concerned? If anybody would help me identify his specific species? i was told they were some GALS. Also do you recommend giving him little bow with water inside his home?

Since I’ve known my wife, she’s always been a little picky. Doesn’t like certain textures, usually won’t eat leftovers, doesn’t like variations on familiar foods. She’s always willing to try things, but usually she’ll just decline more. The last few years, this has gotten worse. Fast food places that were a go to are often not up to preferred quality, loved dishes like fish n chips or burgers are often now gross to her. Most days she skips meals and just has a protein shake because it’s the only consistent acceptable options. We struggle to eat meals as a family because we can’t come up with things she’ll eat together. She often cooks me meals of stuff me and our child wi...

only 70 cals for the whole bag ! and i added steamed veg for even more volume

This **sweet potato salad** completely reimagines what a salad can be. It's hearty enough to serve as a meal, packed with fall flavors, and somehow feels both comforting and refreshing at the same time. https://preview.redd.it/unkfhu7bpm6f1.jpg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d9b9d4948ebe81a46e6aead80131c2c7e7c8cf33 The sweet potatoes are the star, and the preparation method makes all the difference. Tossing them with olive oil, paprika, salt, and garlic powder before roasting at 475°F creates these incredible caramelized edges while keeping the inside creamy. The high heat is key - it develops complex flavors and creates textural contrast that makes every ...

I followed this recipe: https://www.thewholesomedish.com/the-best-classic-shepherds-pie/ But I made it with 2lbs of ground chicken instead. I also didn’t put half and half and swapped it with 100ml of 2% milk. I also reduced the butter to 25g. I put cheese in my mash potatoes but you can easily do without to reduce cals as well. I’ve been craving shepherds pie lately so this hits the spot perfectly. My tray made \~7 servings. I added spicy mayo (7g) on mine because I’m a spicy mayo junkie lol.

Hello friends. Just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to meet protein macros while on Reta. I am two and a half months in on Reta with effective appetite suppression just at 2 mg per week (split M, W, F). I titrated from 0.5 weekly up unitl I started feeling noticeable effects which was at 2 mg. Male, 5'9, down from 215 to 194 lbs, with better energy, mood, and sleep. Resistance training 3-4 times a week and LISS cardio about 3 times a week (around 40 minutes per cardio session). I have a macro split of 40p/30c/30f with a goal of a 500 caloric deficit per day. My body tends to perform/feel better with a higher protein/fat diet hence those macros. I get extremely sluggish with a hi...

I noticed I'm seeing a lot of mass hysteria regarding symptoms with injections that are actually normal and should be expected to a degree. So I want to make a pinned announcement to hopefully prevent misinformation and redundant posts. Starters, testosterone vials are sustained in thick oils. At room temperature, the viscosity can go all the way from 27-33 cP to 1000-1500 cP all depending on the carrier oil used. The impact this has on the pharmaceutical's pharmacokinetics can be incredibly significant, take castor oil for example.
