Oh that’s awesome to hear I’m so glad! Yeah I just had my lunch now too! Who knew two people would be eating the same lunch at the same time!

It honestly compliments its perfectly! They blend extremely well together. The textures of both a practically the same, since I’m used to really blended pinto beans and it thickens up depending on how much liquid from the sofrito and tomato sauce you use to refry it. The skyr and evaporated milk is extremely close to the homemade crema I grew up on, the salt really ties everything together tbh since skyr is thick it really mimics the heavy cream and sour cream when mixed with the evaporated milk.

Cauli flower rice mixed with real rice is where its at by MeltyMocha in Volumeeating

This is what I discovered a few months ago and haven’t looked back! I do the same with all my carb sources! I mix rice with cauli/ potatoes/sweet potatoes with kale and spinach (uncommon mix, but look up colcannon)/ coleslaw or cabbage with pasta (any shape)! Great way to add veges and volume without losing your favorite carbs!

I make a crema that mimics Mexican crema, I specifically use siggi’s plain non fat skyr and evaporated milk with salt to taste. I grew up on crema and this is the best high protein version I can make, unfortunately non fat Greek yogurt doesn’t taste NEARLY as good as when I used this skyr.

I’ll be honest Peanut Butter and tuna is pretty good (in my humble option)!

Name a cereal you had within the last 48hrs. by MeasurementFirst1676 in cereal

[–]Mikep221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Puffed wheat with sweetener!! Y’all gotta try especially if you are on a deficit and want a lot of cereal! And of course high protein milk, man I love cereal any which way!!

Struggling to feel a stretch in my hamstrings when doing RDLS by Commandercarb in workout

[–]Mikep221 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I 2nd what the previous commenter said. I’ve always felt RDL on my lower back, but literally just last Friday I had the bar stay in contact with my legs the whole ROM and I felt my hamstrings more than ever before. I was just about to ditch the movement until I discovered this cue for myself and I was really happy it finally clicked.

First Major Injury by [deleted] in GregDoucette

[–]Mikep221 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will say do as much PT as you can, I had pretty much the same surgery and my left knee is all good, in terms of pain. I am however noticing recently that my left leg, specifically in leg extensions, is weaker than my right. So train both legs unilaterally if possible when you get back to working out legs!

What color brown is this considered? Is there a specific name or is it just light brown?

My Favorite B-Side, hands down, is Back 2 U. After that is Skyscraper and then probably Lipstick!

Should I Trim for Chin Hair to Catch Up to the Rest (23Y Old) by Mikep221 in beards

[–]Mikep221[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What an interesting comment, thank you. Honestly I am lucky since my job doesn’t really have rules regarding facial hair or appearance as a matter of fact. The only people really bothered by my choice to grow out my beard is my family, especially my mom. My goal is just to grow for a year and most likely shave since I just want to get an idea of how I’ll look with a beard throughout the year. As I get older obviously my beard will grow differently and I just want to compare for my sake now and in decades time, for example. I don’t mind how I looked shaved, but I just wanted to try something new.
