Avatar n tn There are recipes galore on the internet. I mainly stick to the heart healthy and liver healthy recipes. It is a bit more expensive, but I have lost almost 20 lbs. in less than 3 weeks. This is not water weight either! I have cut out all sugar, salt, dairy, wheat, cocoa, and caffeine out of my diet. I also take quite a few supplements as well for for my hep c; which include milk thistle, MSM, saw palmetto, vitamin C, shark cartilage, and others.

Some ways you can get protein is soy, nuts and beans. My teenage daughter wanted to be a vegetarian for a few years so I had to learn how to cook vegetarian. She's not doing it so much anymore but I still use soy, like the soy crumbles in soups or the firm tofu in veggie stir fries. She also likes the Boca burgers, which is a soy burger.

Avatar f tn You just need to ensure you are eating a balanced diet and that you are getting the right nutrients. If you go to the Healthy Cooking Forum you will find lots of good recipes - many of them vegetarian and on the health pages there is some information about dealing with cravings and issues around vegetarianism and how to lighten up your cooking. Do ensure you are getting sufficient protein through beans and dairy. Good luck and do join our weight loss challenge.

Avatar n tn You can specify vegan recipes. The majority of their recipes are vegetarian, but if you take it one step further and go for the vegan recipes, you'll be able to avoid the dairy and the eggs. Or, look at the vegetarian recipes that call for milk and substitute with the rice milk. I would suggest going easy on the eggs, eventhough they're not actually dairy. Your daughter isn't allergic to them, because eggs aren't from lactating mammals.
Avatar f tn I have been a vegetarian for 17 years and am happy with that. However, sometimes I feel low in energy, especially as I often stand/am constantly on my feet for long hours at work. What's the best way to give myself the energy I need for those 10-14 hour work days? I find it hard to get motivated in the morning so need something to energize me for breakfast and then continually throughout the day. I love cooking and smoothies and would rather eat real food over taking supplements.
Avatar f tn Also there are a lot of great healthy casserole recipes that require cooked chicken. I will put the chicken in the crockpot with my preferred seasonings before work, and by the time I get home, all I have to do is assemble the casserole and put it in the oven! That chicken also tastes good on a homemade salad if you start to feel too lazy for a casserole :) I hope th is helps!
Avatar n tn Eating a low carb diet is the best option. Eat lean protien sources like fish, chicken, beef. For essential fats eat salmon, olive oil, almonds. the only carbs should come from fruit and vegetables. Drink only water not juice.
172023 tn?1334672284 Lately I've been boring people by putting recipes in my Journal. I get a lot of feedback on it, so people seem to be interested. If we had a Healthy Cooking Forum, I could resume using my journal to record my controversial thoughts and opinions. Anyway, since this is a health oriented site, it would seem fitting to do this. Plus, you'll get a lot of hits with people searching the internet for recipes. Win/Win.
Avatar n tn Are there any other vegetarian mums to be out there? I'm 7 weeks 1 day and I'm starting to get cravings, but what I'm craving is meat :( I'm really wanting red meat and chicken. I'm trying to eat lots of iron and protein rich foods to curb the cravings but it's not working!
8622136 tn?1399000554 Eat spinach and lentils they are high in iron. Just dont eat anything dairy a hour before or after cause vitamin d dosent allow your body to absorb much iron. You really can't just eat beans you should look up vegetarian recipes. Aslo supplement with collagen the ligaments in meat have collagen. Its been proven that vegetarians tear more during delivery because of low collagen intake.

Avatar f tn Try my Moroccan Chicken Stew. It has cumin. It was so good it made me tear up while eating it.
Avatar f tn Wraps! There is soo many different things you can do with them., My husbands favorite is wheat wrap, then spread cream cheese on it (you can do low fat), and sprinkle some garlic powder on the cream cheese, spinach leafs, then turkey, rolled up. Sooo good, sounds a little weird but it's really good!
Tbd com/food-recipes/features/11-top-heart-healthy-foods#1. The number one item on the list for a heart healthy food? Salmon. The best fruit for heart health? Raspberries! This is followed by RED grapes. Take a look at the list and you will notice there are pretty common things to add to your diet but do remember to check with your doctor before starting any new diet. Here is an entire article on having a heart healthy diet. https://www.mayoclinic.
Avatar f tn I'm 15 and a little over weight. I'm not huge not overweight enough to be very unconfident and nervous around people. I'm vegetarian and I need some new low calorie recipes. Please help; exercises that work well would be nice too.
Avatar f tn Also soy, as in tofu, edamame, stir fry, etc. Try a Thai restaurant or recipes. My Japanese friend buys the firm kind and slices it, then stir fries it with vegetables and teriaki sauce and serves it over rice. What a delicious meal.
