Hummus

Let’s talk about hummus. I really have no idea what hummus is. I know it’s a dip. Anyway I tried regular hummus once in my life. I thought it was so gross. Never did I think I try it again. I went to whole foods and saw they had snickerdoodle hummus. Well this don’t sound bad. At least the snicker flavor. So I brought it. I got faffel balls I tried for the first time too. I put this hummus on it. It tasted so yummy. I felt like I was just eating snicker flavor dip. I was told about chocolate also. The chocolate is good. Though I like the snickerdoodle flavor better . I did go back I found a brownie flavor. I haven’t tried it yet . Though I’m loving these yummy flavor made it healthier foods . 

People judge you & ask do you eat?

Anytime anyone loses weight especially a ton of weight many questions are asked. I am faced with this so much.  Everyone no matter of size always will say I’m fat , I want to loose weight, even if their a stick.  Well because of social media and because I’m a big selfie queen. People see my pictures all the time . I get told omg you lost so much weight. Stop loosing weight, you need to eat , you look to skinny, do you eat, etc.  Some people will say you look great how do you do it. Always going to hear negative and positive. I do eat . I eat small amounts every few hours. Sometimes even my best friend will call I say I’m eating I’ll call you back. I get told your always eating . I’ll eat a quarter lbs of  chicken or sometimes just a protein bar every few hours. Protein shakes also. Many of these are meal replacements as well. I have gotten told go eat a bowl of pasta. My answer is no. It is all carbs , sugar , not good for you. When you have surgery or dieting once y...

Vitamin juice

I went to health nuts . I found these vitamin juice drinks . I’m like right away no way are they going to be healthy for you . I looked at it any way . I’m seeing 2 carbs 2 sugar . Really for a juice wow this is amazing . Has fiber too , potassium and vitamins . I read it is diabetic friendly , no caffeine , gluten free , vegan. How can you not try it. They have lemonade , promgrate , fruit punch, cranberry , & orange . My favorite flavor is fruit punch . I hated the orange . Def if you want a juice that is healthier try these . I got them at health nuts. 

Protein ice cream

Halo vs Enlightened protein ice cream  So many people are buying Halo. It has become a very popular ice cream. Also that it is a protein ice cream. I tried Halo mint chip. I found it to be too creamy. I was able to handle is two spoons.  I tried Enlightened mint chip pop. I liked it a lot better. Also it is portion better.  Enlightened also comes in pints as well. I do think the pops are the way to go, so you don't over eat.  Any protein ice cream has to be portion controlled. The calories will add up. In the end it will not be as healthy as you thought.  Artic zone also has protein ice cream. I have not tried it.  For once in a blue moon it is not horrible. I wouldn't suggest ice cream on a daily basics. If you have gastric surgery, trying to loose weight, diabetic these ice creams do have the least sugars as well.  There are Hershey's no added sugar with Splenda. I wasn't a fan of that.

Chia pudding

I went to a group event. I had tried chia pudding. This was my favorite dessert food there. When I made it at home I didn't put the cream on top. Figured to share this with you all. 

Flourless chocolate cake

I tried and made flourless chocolate cake . I forgot to buy the chocolate chips . Though that would of added more carbs and sugar . This tasted pretty good. It had protein and no flour. Better snack dessert . 

Cauliflower pizza

For 6/7 years I did not eat pizza. I couldn't swallow it . It is all carbs. Now your thinking who can not eat pizza or crave it? Yup me.  How to cut pizza out of your diet. Now everyone after school would always go and buy pizza. Every kids birthday you went to always had a pizza pie. Easiest food to take out for the family and friends pizza. How can you avoid it? The best bet if you go to a pizza place order something healthy such as a grilled chicken ceaser salad.  If your really tempted to eat pizza and around it , it will be hard. For example I was away the only thing open to get was pizza. Yes on a cruise. I was hungry. I ordered a slice and just took off the cheese. I ate just the cheese part. Plus the cheese part has protein.    If you really can't avoid pizza here is a healthier way to eat pizza . Trader Joe's I found cauliflower pizza crust. I brought low fat mozerella cheese and low sodium sauce. When cooking it I liked it better crispy. Here you get less c...
