My go-to meal that keeps cravings at bay.
I'm not sure what works for who, and I'm confident that everyone is different, but I just wanted to post this meal that I've found keeps me happy and satisfied throughout the week. So here goes: ...
I have to say, my usual snack at night after work is a large diced pickle in some tuna. Lots of salt there. And I have refried beans more often ...
Re: Newbie in culinary school
The first time I attempted SCD I was in college for Baking & Pastry Arts. I managed to lose 30 lbs in a three month period, but it meant not trying many of the things I was cooking. And that...
Re: Is coconut flour allowed?
I've used coconut flour in the cauliflower pizza crust recipe found on here, and it didn't effect my weight loss at all. I've also used it to coat chicken before I bake it with excellent results....
I eat 3 large eggs every morning, including cheat days, and keep hard-boiled eggs as a snack if I get cravings at work. My cholesterol is WAY bet...
Re: Can't get started...
I had the same issue. I lost 25 pounds during a three month period last year, quit the diet after a trip back home, and when I got back I never found the will to start again. I'm just now gettin...
Well after the last year of experience and trial and error, I would suggest never going back to the old ways, anyway. Regardless of the ingredien...
Re: Who has your ideal bod?
Jason f*@$ing Statham! I would kill to look like a balding Englishman.
I hear ya.
And like I said before in the post below, if you are truly worried about missing out on those Omega's, get some fish oil and get your 3's and 6's ...
It's pretty stupid too if you're only buying the eggs that cost twice as much simply for Omega 3's. Get a bottle of fish oil pills and save your ...
I just noticed Mr. Wikipedia's post. Yes, if it's on there it must be true. Misinformation? One of us got the info in a college setting from a ...
No, it's only one book, but it's broken up into several sections for each different outcome, be it weight loss, muscle gain...ect...
Re: The lonely start?
It might sound like a plug for the book, but it's really something you should buy. Trying to do this diet without reading the proper parts of the book is like trying to operate machinery without ...
Re: Use an All-Fat Creamer in Your Coffee
Excellent product, I use it myself. But the fat levels are off the charts with cream, so follow Tim's advice and use no more than 2 Tbsp per day and you'll be fine.
Every 3 hours? That can be damned near impossible for the majority of us. Getting near anything SCD-friendly at my work before I get to take my ...
I was at walmart looking coolers for a camping trip I'm taking with my kids next month (I plan waaay ahead for things) and saw that they had an el...
Coconut Flour Flatbread
I found a website that had a pretty nice recipe for SCD-compliant flatbread. I didn't like how eggy the final product was, so I tinkered with it a bit. I now eat this with tuna. Very good. Has...
Re: WOW! Cauliflower Pizza Crust !! Yum!
I decided to try my hand at this today. I altered the recipe a bit though: 1 cup riced cauliflower 2 eggs 2 Tbsp coconut flour Organic pizza seasoning (Grew the herbs myself) I spread it out in ...
Anytime. It's amazing what kind of wool these "organic" corporations try to pull over our eyes. Best thing you can do is raise the chi...
Re: I want to start running, is this OK?
Exercise is always a good thing. And running is one of the best cardio exercises out there. I found the first time I did SCD that running 2 miles per day really kicked my weight loss into high g...
Re: Do eggs have to be organic?
These farm raised, organic eggs that people spend so much time worrying over are no better than the cheaper eggs you get at your local Walmart. To be certified as free-range, a chicken only has t...
Re: I Did NOT Fall off the Wagon...
I hear you brother. I was 215 when I started my divorce, and ended up 250 just a few months later. I simply stopped giving a crap. 7 years later, I'm just lately starting to deal with it and f...
Exactly. I started setting my alarm for a half hour earlier than usual just to get this done. I have a morning ritual, I turn on the stove and l...
Sounds to me like you're doing a heck of a job. Keep it up!
I bought my mom and my grandma the book, and would be money neither of them has even so much as read a single page. It's a nasty cycle down there...
Re: The Chili That is Saving My Life
This sounds delicious. I love chili, and I'm going to use this tomorrow for my first day back on SCD. Thanks!
Been gone a few weeks...
Hit a downhill slope a few weeks ago. Lost all the progress I had made. I'm not going into details, but alot of what got me going downhill was family-related and due to a trip back to Dixie I go...
I usually check the site out from work on my iPod Touch 4G. If you plan on releasing it for that I would love to test it out.
