Tried something new



Recommended Posts

I have seen people post stuff about this, so I tried it. Cauliflower rice! It was SO good and such a great rice-less side for the stir-fry I made tonight. I didn't feel deprived AT ALL!

Yes. Talk. (Shining the bright light in your face till you spill the rice!) :)

I saw your post somewhere about dry frying tofu. I want to try it, it sounded so yummy!! Will you repost again how you do it? I'm lazy and don't wanna go to my computer to search it out lol

Sure let me find it and cut and paste :) I'm lazy too!

To dry fry, I cut up my tofu and slow fry it with no oil or butter on a non stick griddle or you can use a cast Iron pan. I fry it on a lower heat to get the moisture out and crisp it up.

Tofu isn't really high in carbs, I buy mine at trader joes...

Also after you dry fry it you can do different things with it...like marinade in anything (it is tasteless so will soak up any flavor) and stir fry with veggies

I like it marinaded sometimes but I will also eat it just straight from the fridge cold after dry frying it

Oh and I also use my dry fry tofu instead of flat bread to eat hummus.

Ok Laura...what section of the grocery store does one find this tofu that you speak of?? Lol

I hope your serious so I don't look like an ass :P

But if you are in a regular store (Safeway or such)

It's by the produce section in a refrigerated case

I buy mine from trader Joes also in a refrigerated

Case by the produce Alway buy extra firm tofu when dry frying, it's just a better texture.

And when you take it out of the package pat it dry with a paper towel.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
