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

Beyond Meat burger. Had them for the first time and they're really good.

We have these in my house ALL the time and honestly they smell like meat when cooking.

Before and after of Shipwrecked ice cream (chocolate, caramel and Oreos) it’s a kid size portion but I have no clue about the calories. This is the amount I can handle without fear of ill effects.

First thought: "Why do I have to thaw them in the fridge first?"

Second thought: "These look like they will stick to the pan and make a mess in there."

Third thought: "I knew they would stick so luckily I was careful flipping them. And yes, a mess in the pan."

They taste good but they're not "meatier" than several other patties. The price is ok when they're on sale, they come frozen so they're good when it comes to storing. I'm going to buy them again. However, I don't get the super-hype around them like it's some kind of vegan burger revolution going on, lol.

I think the one that’s considered the meatiest is the impossible burger. Have you tried that one yet?
I always cook the beyond burgers in fat (mostly olive oil) and spices. However, I have never eaten one ?

Lunch date

Southwestern style salad , fries (no pic) and Bavarian beer cheese pretzels (forgive us @summerset) I barely ate any because everything was too salty ?

It's my birthday!! I ordered a Bourbon sauce Mahi Mahi & shrimp plate!

I had all 4 shrimp, half the Mahi Mahi & I only got like 2 bites of the potatoes & a few of the sweet potato shavings & it was AMAZING

I guess most of what other countries label as "Bavarian" or "German" is as Bavarian or German as the foods we label "American", lol.

Hmmmm. These are the ones available here:

Brunch

So many people despise vegan substitutes. I personally think it makes it way easier to follow a vegan diet. The cashew or cauliflower based cheeses by Happy Cashew or Jay & Joy are bomb. Mühlenmett is a game changer for Mettbrötchen-Lovers.

Leftover southwest salad, boiled egg and sweet potato medallions (that fell apart).

I did not finish this especially the egg which was an afterthought for protein sake. Funny if these were frozen waffles, I would have attempted to eat 2 even though they are more calories. ?
