Sounds like you are enjoying experimenting. Once you get to a recipe you enjoy - will you share with the rest of us?

: Starting day 3 of step one and
: committed to just doing breakfast.
: Much more aware of how my thoughts
: keep trying to push me to worry
: about future steps or about life
: in general. One small true victory
: is much bigger than the thousand
: things I have done fast with no
: long-term progress.

: As I am thinking about my protein and
: how to get creative with
: plant-based recipes I found this
: great site where I can enter a
: recipe and it will tell me the
: nutrition facts. I was able to
: change ingredients and quantities
: until I got to the protein, fat,
: and calories that make sense. I
: was able to add 10 grams of
: protein by sneaking in some beans.
: I am on a quest to make a portable
: meal bar with 27 grams of protein
: and brown carbs. I made a few
: versions yesterday and then
: realized that I cook by intuition
: and had not thought about actually
: measure anything.

: I had a big insight when I put my
: best guess of a recipe into the
: nutrition facts to see that the
: protein was much lower than I
: believed and the fat and calories
: were much higher. Just a few days
: into the program and am learning a
: lot about myself and the power of
: doing just one thing.
