    HOLY MOLY! The bar down the street from me just started carrying these last night.     They serve a variety of good ole beef burgers, but they also already have a dressed up Beyond burger and deep fried vegan tacos! They are a sports bar too, which you may think ok well that's normal, but I...

    Look awesome GIP! I'm not about to be the food police here, but if anyone asks cheese/dairy/eggs qualifies as vegetarian.  People who don't eat anything that comes from animals or use anything that "exploits" animals (like honey or wearing leather) call themselves vegan.  I just like to eat...

    Heya.  So exercise heartburn is a thing, and it could very well be what you are experiencing.  There are foods to avoid and tips like eating well before a work out so the food and stomach acid don't get pushed around.  However, I don't want to be an alarmist but I would recommend seeing a doctor...

    I don't have any professional background yet in nutrition other than what I was required to learn to get my personal training certification, but I will say one of the things they hammered hard was carb cutting really isn't a long term solution.  The body needs carbs, especially when you are...

    My guess would be that something with your nutritional balance is off.  Is what you're eating throughout the day balanced?  Eating less calories does = weight loss, but also a metabolic slow down.  So if you cut a bunch of calories and then slip up and have a cheat day or two it worse than if...

    Its a shame because the species is going to be extinct now that the last male is gone. Unless some freaky science cloning or artificial insemination happens its bye bye forever to that animal.

    Heyo.  Had my first jiu jitsu competition yesterday.  It was only an informal in-house tournament, but it followed the International Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Federation rules for the matches.  I successfully dropped 7 lbs since I got back from Jamaica and ended up winning all my matches, but I wasn't...

    :drooling:  That looks sooooo good. I love Indian food.  It is a bit pricey in my neighborhood, but further north of me there's a street full of Indian places (grocery stores, restaurants, clothing, etc.) and everything there is pretty affordable.  I love going there for the buffets... now i'm...

    I like to juice bunches of parsley. My dog likes to eat the stems, makes her breath smell nice.  I've been adding parsley to my salads and such because it is such a nice, economical herb.

    Tuscan white beans, lemon garlic white wine asparagus, and tabouli salad.  The Tuscan beans are where its at, super simple, garlic, a tomato, add as much spice as you want, parsley and some water. Salt and bp, and then threw the skillet in the broiler to finish off.

    Vegan Broccoli "cheese" soup with some homemade bread.  The soup gets the cheese/cream from raw cashews and nutritional yeast flakes.  There is a cup of plant based milk in there (I use an almond-cashew milk that is fortified with pea protein).  I had it with powder last night but today i might...
