Same ****. I rarely see both at the same time and use them interchangeably.

Thank you for this thread. I'm on the night shift and there's half of a cake just sitting here and I was so tempted.

Just ordered some grassfed whey the other day because I'm about to join a gym. I've been slacking on weight lifting since I moved to Florida.

I read grassfed whey and didn't know what that was. I never used whey protein and just looked up it's made from cows. I had no idea.

Almond butter is in the same aisle as peanut butter lol. Thread is off to a horrible start though I have nothing to add. I've been working out a whole year but diet is whatever I want. Need to get a bit more strict

Just started making them myself. 

I add a cup of chobani yogurt, chia seeds, and a bit of orange juice to the cups of spinach I use. Was shocked at how much I liked it once I tried it.

Info on your avy? Who dat

Your black card is temporarily revoked. 1 week suspension. Effective immediately.

They're not the same. A Sweet Potato is white on the inside like a russet, but it has a sweet taste. A yam is orange, but we call a yam a yam or a sweet potato. Either way, they're delicious. Candied yams

Currently in college so eating healthy is actually really easy

Usually a meal for me is spinach, cucumbers, kidney beans, 2 plums, brown rice, and grilled chicken. 

Ive also been eating a lot of carrots, green peppers, green beans, and broccoli 

I also usually take an apple or banana with me to snack on when i leave the dining hall

Its crazy because eating this stuff actually makes me feel good. 

I ended up going home to visit my family for the weekend, and decided to eat what they were serving. Had some pizza and fries. 

I could literally feel my skin get greasy eating it 

 

Ive pretty much stopped eating oily/fried foods altogether. Been on this healthy lifestyle for almost 6 to 7 weeks now. Feels good 

Ill start taking some more pics of my meals to post here. Just deleted a bunch from my camera roll to make room for more storage. 

I'm also starting to get interested in the vegan lifestyle. Need to do more research though.

I would love to incorporate more vegan dishes in my rotation, but there aren't many places around me. I found one spot close to me but their menu is hella small and expensive. Bought a burrito, and a lil desert, and came out to be $30

So if a sweet potatoe is orange and a yam is white/ purple on the inside ...I've never had real candy yams ??

Little changes makes a big difference though...swap out rice for quinoa or couscous...swap ground beef/pork for Turkey...
Do not use man made oils...stick to cocunot oil or butter...you can definitely feel the difference when you eat healthier...

 

[SC kid]
