PROTEIN FOODS Locations

I lift regularly and aim for high protein while keeping calories controlled, but I kept running into the same problem: recipes are rarely written for specific macro targets, which made portioning and grocery planning messy. What’s been working better for me is planning meals from macros first, then scaling portions before I cook. Example structure (training day): • Protein target: ~160–180g • Calories: adjusted based on training vs rest days Typical day: • Breakfast: Greek yogurt + oats (~35–40g protein) • Lunch: Chicken, rice, vegetables (~45–50g protein) • Snack: Eggs or yogurt (~20–25g protein) • Dinner: Chicken/beans/veg leftovers (~45–50g protein) Why t...

Hello! Looking for advice on whether or not my feeding schedule for her is appropriate or any ways that I can improve/ brands to try. I am not wealthy but I try to buy her nice things regardless. I feed her one 3.5 oz can of food in the morning after playtime and one at midday. Then at night I fill a puzzle feeder with dry food (purina pro plan complete essentials, about 1/3 cup) and some treats (freeze dried salmon and a few of the Stella and Chewy freeze dried rabbit morsels). Her favorite food is the weruva bff love munchkin (chicken and pumpkin) so I feed her that often. She also likes weruva cats in the kitchen but I am still figuring out which flavors are yays and which are nays. She ...

Most of the brands I’ve seen for this have a may contain warning. The independent shop says it is just a cover all but I’m not sure I want to take the risk. Anybody can recommend a brand without traces, or maybe it’s a negligible warning?

I recently joined a gym to start my fitness journey. My goal is to lose around **20 kg**. My trainer suggested a particular protein brand, but when I looked it up, I couldn’t find any reviews on YouTube or elsewhere, which felt a bit odd. This made me wonder, is it common in the fitness industry for trainers to earn commissions from supplement brands they recommend? Or am I just overthinking this? Would love to hear from people who’ve been through this or trainers who can share an honest perspective. I ended up researching on my own and bought Avvatar Isorich

I'm 28 and was diagnosed at 13. Tried everything — Adderall, Vyvanse, every supplement on Amazon, bullet journals, apps that never stuck. Here's what finally moved the needle after tracking my days for 2 months: 1. Morning exercise BEFORE anything else - Even 20 min walk. Harvard calls it "Miracle-Gro for the brain." My focus lasts 3x longer on days I move first. 2. Protein at breakfast - Eggs or Greek yogurt. Sounds basic but my afternoon crashes disappeared, and I've found that ADHD is highly reliant on your energy levels (maybe that's just me though). 3. One deep work block - Phone in another room, all tabs closed. Using a visual timer helped. I started w...

Hey all, for years, I felt completely lost. My eating habits were terrible, worse than I even realised at the time. I thought I was doing “fine” like everyone else in my small town. But the truth was, I was living on autopilot, eating the worst junk food you can imagine. It got so bad that I’d eat huge family-sized bags of crisps in bed at night. I kept gaining weight and blamed it all on stress and anxiety. It felt normal, until one day my GP gave me a wake-up call I couldn’t ignore. She told me, "this has to stop NOW. You don’t realize how bad this has become, do you?" I felt aweful! I was on the edge of serious health problems because of my obesity and habits. That d...

Yesterday I found out that my baby has a major heart defect, giving them a high chance of passing shortly after birth and likely only living to 20 at most, with very poor quality of life. I’m devastated - there were no indicators anything was wrong up till now, both parents young and healthy. There’s a 1 in 10,000 chance of this and i am just so confused and lost. I am going to pursue a termination but need to do 2 things first 1) an amniocentesis test to check for possible causes, including genetics 2) a further scan to check the baby’s anatomy to see if there are also issues with the liver etc I’ve been given no update on how long this could take yet but 2/3 weeks at most seems ...

My son will be turning 1 in a couple of weeks, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to transition him from bottles to regular meals with cow's milk. **Current routine:** - 4-6 bottles per day (8 oz when he wakes up and before naps, though I've been slowly reducing some to 4 oz) - 3 solid meals per day - When he has a full meal, he gets a 4 oz bottle instead of 8 oz **My plan:** I do have a small breastmilk stash that I'm planning to use to help ease the transition to cow's milk. **What I'm wondering:** - How much cow's milk should he be getting once we fully transition? - What does your routine look like after dropping bottles—do you offer milk w...

I’ve been taking Auri Nutrition supplements for a few weeks now and honestly, they’ve made a noticeable difference. The quality feels high — clean ingredients with no weird fillers — and the capsules are easy to swallow. I started with their immune support and daily multivitamin, and I’ve felt less run-down over the past month. No digestive upset like I’ve had with other brands. What sets Auri apart is that it feels intentional — not just a random mix of vitamins, but formulas that actually seem to do something. Packaging is nice and minimal, and delivery was quick with clear instructions. The only downside is the price; it’s not cheap, but I’d rather pay a bit more if the...

Use Cronometer to fill up the micro/macronutrients using these foods: Chicken Cucumber Celery Asparagus Carrots Manuka Honey Sweet potatoes (baby food) Peas (baby food) Kiwi (baby food) Olive oil Goals: 50-60g protein 150-200g of carbs Hit as many of the vitamin/mineral targets as possible - doesn't have to meet the goal completely but come close to it. Baby foods should be pure as possible, free from added sugars or sweeteners, or any other artificial additives. https://cronometer.com/ I'm looking to create a meal plan, something I can easily prep for the week, something relatively cheap and affordable as well. Provide options / flexibility for different possible meals. ...

I’ve been trying to eat healthier without overspending or letting food go bad, so I started planning meals from the grocery list backward instead of picking random recipes. Here’s what worked for me this week: Grocery list (~$75, varies by location): • Chicken thighs (family pack) • Eggs (18 ct) • Greek yogurt (large tub) • Canned black beans • Rice • Frozen broccoli • Bell peppers • Onions • Spinach • Oats • Olive oil + basic spices Meals I got out of it (5 days): • Chicken, rice, and roasted veggies • Egg & veggie scrambles • Greek yogurt + oats • Bean & rice bowls • Leftover chicken repurposed into wraps Why this help...

Just wanted to share this because it’s honestly the first time I’ve lost weight in a way that didn’t feel miserable… and it didn’t bounce back right after. Also… 2024 was really bad for me. A lot happened and I completely stopped prioritising my health. I was eating more, drinking more, and basically just coping through food/alcohol. I didn’t even realise how much I’d let myself go until I looked back. So when I finally decided to change, I promised myself I wouldn’t do the whole extreme thing again. No crash diets, no crazy workout routine. I just started doing small changes that I could actually stick to: eating cleaner slowly, prioritising protein so I don’t keep sn...

Building off a post I made prior on here. Basically, going back to summer I switched up my exercise/diet. 2 sets 4x a week heavy lifting to failure on top of practice for sports and calorie deficit with high protein. Was definitely over training and had improper core bracing on lifts like bench and shoulder press where my butt would come off the seat entirely. I’m 6’7 210 now, used to be 230 in summer, so was eating 210-240 grams a day which looking back on it was way too much and lack of fiber. Continued this on for Aug-November. Early November recognized I was getting up to pee during sleep, mid November more frequent, Thanksgiving break every day, then on returning to school the dayt...

Speaking of book adaptations that that I assumed were much more faithful than they actually are, and are much improved by their deviations (I was, [months ago](https://www.reddit.com/r/LookBackInAnger/comments/1ipgmon/the_prestige_yet_again_its_my_sub_and_i_do_what_i/), and sometimes it just takes me that long to gather my thoughts)… My history: somewhat surprisingly for a nerd of my generation, I had very little do to with the Lord of the Rings books when I was a child. I was vaguely aware that they existed, and I read [The Hobbit](https://www.reddit.com/r/LookBackInAnger/comments/qf2szc/the_lord_of_the_rings_trilogy_and_the_hobbit/) in seventh grade, but that was about it until the firs...

Ive always struggled to gain weight and it feels exhausting. Everyone says oh just eat more. Nah aint got that kind of money. I thought with age it would get better but it hasnt. I got my mum's genes bc shes still skinny with no excersize or no diets. She literally eats what she wants. I used to go to the gym and eat alot, protein shakes etc. I loved by body when I was bigger. But after having my daughter I literally look frail and tiny like Ill break if the wind ***** too hard. Im so focused on my daughter that I forget to eat and honestly the idea of eating right now is just awful plus I dont have a bunch of money to waste on a bunch of food for me. What's ways I can gain weight?...

Melatonin is the obvious one for me. We have it in tablets, drops, gummies, chocolate… any form you want
