Like weight loss before and after photos but of your new diet !

I'm especially interested in before and after meal photos (take a pic at the point you feel restriction) but it can be of recipe substitutions, your refrigerator/pantry/shopping cart/etc

It's a mini chaffle maker (4" diameter!):

OMG. I have to get one of these, sooo cute! Just did a quick google and Bed, Bath & Beyond has one here locally for $11 CAD regular price. Will pick one up in white later today if I have time...

Boo. They didn't have it in stock at BB&B. Will try another place next week...or order online...

pah ha see my dilemma?

one of these is a jaffle

I have one of these, but I don't think it can make a chaffle very well cuz it doesn't squish close enough in the middle...

Wah!! Look at Target online. I am getting mine today (2day shipping)--if it comes. They claim to have it in stock...but I've heard "things."

Rice-less Poke Bowl (black and white sesame crusted seared tuna steak, shiratke noodles, avocado, carrots, edemame & roasted brussel sprouts w/ bacon bits)

Didn't make much of a dent in it despite being reeeeaaaaaly excited to eat it. What I did manage to eat was delicious, though *gives self pat on the back for being a cook extraordinaire*. Will take another stab at eating it later tonite...

If I ate the whole thing, would have been 375 cals, 36g protein, 16g net carbs, 16g fat.

Probably ate about 1/4 of it, so macros would be: 94 cals, 9g protein, 4g net carbs, 4g fat

Mmm, poke bowls. There's a place by me that specializes in poke and ramen. I like mine with shrimp. Are the shirataki noodles fishy smelling?

Yes, lol

...but @FluffyChix shared a tip a while back: rinse them out of the package for minute or so then fry them in a dry, hot pan until the moisture is reduced. It really removes most (if not all) of the smell.

Sad to report. No chaffles yesterday. The Dash delivery was "delayed". I'm betting cuz of the storm? Dunno...I had such high hopes.

What’s a chaffle?

What’s a chaffle?

haha I asked the same thing it is a cheese and egg waffle!

So, having to think outside the box on my new dairy-free life. Got so much dairy in the fridge, I was like ooh I could have a pretend quiche, egg, spinach and cheddar! YAY oh damn cheddar is dairy

So egg and spinach it was and it was very nice even if a bit rubbery because I did it the lazy way in the micro. I seem to be fine with eggs just find them super filling so can never eat a whole one. As you can see below
