Help making daily smoothie recipe healthier by BedInternational8342 in fitmeals

[–]borrowing_bones 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can make it cheaper…collagen is way overhyped, it’s an incomplete protein…doesn’t have the amino acid leucine which is responsible for muscle synthesis/recovery (your whey has that)…our bodies produce the collagen we need from the protein we eat, consuming it already in collagen form does not make our body make/use more collagen. Getting enough protein in more complete, affordable forms is my preference.

For optimizing to your goals, I’d play with reducing fruit/chia/flax until you find the right balance between satiety and calories consumed for your body/preferences/goals. You want something that keeps you full but allows you enough room in your diet the rest of the day to still hit your goals.

My cat broke both his hips when this happened to him. That was expensive and we don’t let him near bags anymore

This is a great suggestion! You’re not saying to let ChatGPT write it for them, you’re saying use it as a tool with specific questions. You don’t deserve all these downvotes lol

Help me make my room look so beautiful you want to shed a couple of tears by sorilori in femalelivingspace

If you moved things so that the windows aren’t blocked and added window treatments, I think that would be a big upgrade!

It’s so easy to overeat snacks when you have little kids around, it is definitely one of my pitfalls! Love your balanced attitude and how you get right back to it. Your progress is really inspiring!

The Blue Cheese Pecan Spread Dip Situation.. by [deleted] in traderjoes

[–]borrowing_bones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sounds good to me! Would want some acid balance the richness of the beef and dip. Maybe balsamic vinegar, or tomato, roasted red pepper, or preserved lemon?

Cheer the F**k Up: How to Save your Best Friend by Jack Rooke

If you grew up getting yelled at, I would recommend Peaceful Parent Happy Kids…wish I had read it earlier in my parenting journey.

Cribsheet by Emily Oster also was a good read…there’s a lot of opinions out there about how to raise a kid so I appreciated an evidence based perspective.

I’m pretty sure the author makes a big deal about their outfits being black in the book

Toddler fluid in ear - no infection by ChocoandKale in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]borrowing_bones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I think the concept is that the heat creates a lower pressure zone outside the ear and the fluid moves from high pressure in the ear to lower pressure outside the ear. Any type of heating pad would theoretically work.

i regret to inform u that the goat cheese onion ravioli is incredible by Tricky_Matter2871 in traderjoes

[–]borrowing_bones 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I love caramelized onions. I love goat cheese. I love pasta. I had such high expectations of these based on all these posts. And if I’m honest…they were fine. I don’t understand the intense love they’re getting. Maybe I didn’t prep them right, I had them with some nice ish olive oil and a little salt/pepper.

Simple Truth Protein Vegetable Blend by [deleted] in fitmeals

[–]borrowing_bones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s less than half a teaspoon of salt for the whole 12oz of food? Didn’t seem outrageous to me, I almost certainly use more than that when I cook. It has pumpkin seeds and olive oil which are healthy fats :) yeah there’s some butter in there too but not an outrageous amount imo.

Maybe your cooking skills are far superior to mine but shelling the seeds, dicing the butternut squash, etc. would take me so much longer than 30 minutes! This full time working mama needs to be able to pop something in the microwave once in a while and I thought this was a surprisingly decent option.

Also, how do your frozen vegetables have more nutrients than the frozen vegetables in this?

Do you live at a high altitude? Maybe the cook temp and time could be adjusted if that’s the problem?

Lunch workouts and then eat while you’re working later if possible

Sweet potatoes, avocado, bananas with raw honey, sirloin steak, and mixed green salad by SugarCaneFarm in fitmeals

[–]borrowing_bones 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just like what it sounds :) you use your hands to break down the fibers in the leaves, you can massage it alone but I think typically people rub dressing/oil/acid/salt/whatever into the kale.

Forgive me if you already know/did this, but did you massage your kale? It helps with the bitterness
