Re: walnuts... damn you...
This site isn't always right... Theres a lot of weird ones that I just ignore. Did you know you can't have cucumbers, according to this site? Eat your walnuts, but eat them in moderation!
Re: Plateau? Minor weight loss this week.
Any exercise can lead to muscle gain. That could definitely be a factor. Double check your sausage ingredients for added sugars, bread crumbs, cheese, flour, etc. You don't seem to be too far fr...

Re: Week 67 Results - This is what happens with no exercise

Congratulations on your success! What do you think was the real cause of the plateau break? Did you change anything up? Maybe it was just the extra protein!
I agree. The chicken at Chipotle is one of the yummiest things, and I am not a fan of chicken
Sounds awesome! I'm a read meat person, so I definitely need to start encorporating more chicken and leaner meats.. I've been having way too much ...
I guess i'm just worried, because intuitively, not losing weight makes me want to eat less. Im not hungry or anything either.
