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

Yes, it's the pumpkin one. Going to have pumpkin mini waffles all year long because the orange coordinates with my kitchen ?

Question for you low carb folks:

What is the best low carb breading for chicken tenders (air fried)?

Plan on making a low carb version of Chicken & Waffles ?

I make a quart jar of this up at a time, then keep it in the freezer like Panko. It works obscenely well on everything breaded. I'm very biased with my recipe cuz although it uses more ingredients, each one adds to the experience to make it more like the real thing.

I then use either a light coating of mayo to adhere them or I mix some mayo into egg whites to adhere it. And if you want to try double breading, I use whey protein powder mixed with a little parmesan as the first coat.

The other tip is instead of rolling the meat in the breading, I use an empty Tone's Parsley bottle (big) that has big holes in it and shake the breading over the "wet" surface of the meat/veg.

Here's the recipe index page if you want to look at some of the bread/tortilla/cracker recipes. Back in the day I was known for my bread-like subs along with the tortillas, crackers, cornbread, muffiny, cakey things.

Breakfast this morning. Sorry for the crappy pics. It was still dark outside. LOL. I made a crispy taco shell from the 2% Kraft Cheese Deli Deluxe style. Then shaped it over a silicone garlic skin remover, and nuked it til crisp. It would work great for beef or chicken tacos too. It does soften up (from the egg mix), so eat fast NOT! Or line it with a piece of lettuce or green.

It was pretty good. No afters.

Here's the breakdown of macros, which includes the avocado and tomato:

More chaffle nonsense. @Orchids&Dragons this is the closest I could get to my craving today without going to the store for lox. L/O grilled salmon on Greek Yogurt "cream cheese". So dang good. Nothing left but the plate, a lemon rind, and a seed. LOL.

Here's the breakout: cals; protein; fat; carbs; fiber; sugar

Can you believe this is only 163 calories for this lunch. I'm waiting to feel deprivation eating so "abstemiously". When am I gonna feel deprivation?

I know I'm either:

a -really tired

b- very hormonal

c- high as hell

because I thought the capers were chocolate chips and I was about to asks what's going on...

That's only good if it's resulting from excessive cardio. hehe

Airport food I almost tried the Impossible Burger then thought I better wait until I'm in the safety of my home ?

This what it looked like (promo pic)

This is my afters

No bun for me as usual

ok... what is a chaffle? Is it vegetarian? Does it taste like a waffle? Do those mini waffle makers work? Should I buy one?

My first attempt cooking lamb. It could be the recipe, the the taste was off. Gave it to my hubby.
