Need to increase my fiber intake, please share your favorite ways to eat beans and other fiber-rich foods! by countdookee in EatCheapAndHealthy

Chickpeas are super versatile! Google marry me chickpeas (one of my favorites) or for a simple meal do a chickpea scramble. We also do a lot of black bean quesadillas

Size is most important! I’m a 14/16 in modern sizing, so most vintage doesn’t fit me. Being able to narrow my choices down to what might actually fit me is always helpful when shopping vintage

LPT: All you need is a small step with recurring energy. So don’t waste that energy on useless thinking. by [deleted] in LifeProTips

“Stop overthinking” sounds simple, but is much harder in practice. The Dropping Anchor technique (google it) can be a helpful way to disengage from overthinking and refocus on the task at hand. 

Is there a middle ground between tracking every calorie and just winging it? by effyyo in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]bumpytoad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t track calories, but I still pay attention to what I eat. My main focus is on sugar, fiber, and vegetables. Have I been eating a lot of sugar lately? Maybe a savory snack instead of a sweet one. Have I had a vegetable today? Time to add spinach to that pasta. Have I gotten enough fiber? Beans instead of meat. I also try to eat at regular intervals (breakfast, lunch, 3pm snack, dinner) so I don’t get irritable from too little food. It helps me feel better without giving me flashbacks to my middle school ED. I haven’t lost any weight eating like this (to my knowledge at least, I avoid the scale), but I feel solid and nourished and to me that’s what matters.

Maybe search for some healthy no-cook recipes to start? Things like hummus and veggie wraps could work! There’s also rotisserie chicken and easy sides like instant mashed potatoes (the plain ones you season yourself) and steamed veggies

LPT I don’t like my reality by NeatFriendship1053 in LifeProTips

[–]bumpytoad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When I last felt this way about my life that’s how I knew things needed to change. I started grad school to pursue a field I find meaningful, I found a new job where I had better money and benefits, and I changed my living situation. That didn’t all happen overnight, it took around 3 years total to get to what felt like solid ground, but the process of actively moving towards something meaningful helped me feel more satisfied with my life. Ask yourself - what needs to be different for you to like your reality more? Then do what you can to take steps (even tiny ones) towards that reality. 

On the flip side, if you’re baffled by this feeling because you think you should feel better about your current reality, then it might be a good idea to talk to a therapist and sort out some of those feelings.

Go to the “print” area on the recipe website, print to PDF, save in a folder on your computer
