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

Explore Black Bean Spaghetti with tomato sauce. Cashew "parmesan".

Continuing with my no/low cook strike ? -Egg salad

And these little jems from Trader Joe's...

The lines have been very long lately so I rarely shop there anymore. Anyone else still experiencing long wait times?

If i had a Trader Joe’s in my country, I’d gladly wait in line all afternoon ?

WOW that looks good!

Heat index 109* degrees today. Hubs was a trooper grilling this quasi-tomahawk steak with homemade BQ sauce to include a little cacao powder. Bobby displays a great deal of discipline as he anticipates a nibble come dinnertime. I ate about two ounces of steak, two potato wheels and lots of oven roasted green beans. Just a bite of apricot chia pudding. Found this recipe too sweet...

Bean pastas are one of my favorites. Tasty and insane amount of protein even if you only eat a plain tomato sauce with it. I only like this one brand though. The rest of the bean/lentil pastas I tried was just ?.

Bananas, strawberries, soy skyr, chocolate sauce and a coffee banana muesli mix.

Food for tomorrow's 24 h shift: 2 portions peanut tofu with aubergine and sweet chili sauce with brown rice. Sandwiches with cucumber, an apricot and blueberries. Not pictured: strawberries.

Still working on that watermelon...today’s lunch: Romaine, carrots, watermelon, feta, pumpkin seeds, mint leaves and spicy vinaigrette: 154 calories.

Whew! Ok! When you said it was a California only product I panicked and made a rash decision to mix my only remaining bottle with a container of Half & Half to create a custom cookie butter creamer ?

Crisis averted

I found some recipes for vegan protein bars that could taste decent. Mind you, there nutritional profile ist not as protein heavy as the carb crushers by my protein or the no cow bars but they're for sure less pricy.
