If you have a membership to the site the links should still work, I just tested a link from a previous challenge and it worked fine!
No. Meal 5 has minimal to no fat- all the other meals do, so they aren’t equivalent exchanges. Meals 1-4 are close enough to the same macros that Nicole says pick and choose what you want and repeat from those if you like, but post workout is its own thing.
My picture show up, but I don’t know WHY! Its an old picture, from before I was part of this group/membership etc. I wish I could figure out how to change it.
Something I found helpful is to keep in mind we’re all following Nicole because the girl knows her stuff. Myfitnesspal has entries by anyone. I choose to put my trust in Nicole vs random people who downloaded an app.
The reply stating over by 354 calories… well those macros add up to 408, so it just kinda drives the point home that MFP isn’t always bang on.We tried if with different yogurt types depending what was available at our store- and its definitely a LOT better with higher fat yogurt!
Hey Naomi, any chance we could get the approx macros for the coconut milk used? What we have available here varies widely!
I love aprilzahr’s idea. I barely post on the FB page for that exact reason. Just too many people. Also, I feel like Facebook is a little more user friendly, but I know not everyone wants to have an account there…
I read it as 15, immediately drop weight and do another 15. That’s one set, you’ll repeat that for 4 total sets 😉
I did the first 2 as a superset warm-up, then the next 2 as straight sets with working weight. Workout was fantastic!!
Thanks for asking (and answering!) I was debating between the same as I’m exactly 5’4 130 which is the exact cut off! Glad to see my instinct of more food was correct 😉
I’m allergic to oats, so I sub quinoa flour. Grinding your own oats would be a whole lot cheaper though!
Also, Silver Hills has a variety of sprouted breads. I’m trying those next!
(fiber macros are lower than Ezekiel on my pumpernickel, and look great on Silver Hills) I just looked at the online ordering section of the one store in my area that offers it, don’t know if they’ll actually have any in my area.I’ve had a very hard time finding sprouted bread as well (I have an intolerance to oats, which are a main ingredient in lots of breads!) I’ve found a pumpernickel rye bread that has nearly identical macros as Ezekiel- not nearly as “clean” ingredient wise, but the macros match.
Thanks for asking this, as a 12hr shift healthcare worker I was worried too! Keeping the meal plan as written will be so much easier than the juggling act I was trying to figure out how to do!
Thanks for asking this, and for those links Naomi! My cable machine is awkward for glute kickbacks, but the Smith looks perfect!
You definitely don’t need premium if you can remember what your personal macro goals are. MFP only lets you set percentages on the free version, so I set them as close as possible, then just ignore it when it warms me I’m over/under whatever. I rename the meals to help me remember what my macros are for my current goals.
But how about the whole wheat pasta? I’d assume cooked since everything else but oatmeal is measured cooked?
It’s do-able! Just have to get creative with your packaging. I flew for 7+ years, if you need someone to bounce ideas with!
Here’s what works for me:
On meal plan 2 I eat 1.5 servings of pancake, since the recipe gives 4 servings that would leave me with 2.6 meals. No bueno. So, multiply the recipe till you get a round number. I made a triple batch to get 8 even meals.
First, weigh a big bowl. Then mix up all the ingredients, then weigh it all. Divide by 8 (since that’s how many meals worth) and then measure that amount into 8 cereal bowls. Then I add my blueberries to each bowl, you don’t have to if you don’t want to. Cook each cereal bowls worth into pancakes, doesn’t matter if you make 1 gigantic pancake or a dozen little ones- it’s one meal. Set aside to cool and repeat for each cereal bowl. 😀Split it up! Eat what you can, then finish it off an hour later or so.
I will have to break up my meals for work- my plan is to eat half my pancakes before work an half during 1st break. If I don’t have something good to eat on my breaks I’ll give in to the treats that are always present. Means I have lots of mini- meals throughout my day.
