Welcome to the forum, bigjoey! I'm sorry you've put the weight back on! How discouraging!! But now that you've made the committment to FTS, you'll see how good you feel - and you don't HAVE to exercise to
lose weight! Do get some almond flour (or make your own using whole almonds and a grinder) and flaxseed meal and check out the One Minute Muffin. So easy and quick - and DELICIOUS! It's very versatile and filling. I like it as a quick breakfast.
Sometimes I make it in a small shallow pan, cut it in half and use it like bread to make a quick grilled ham and cheese sandwich. The whole process takes less than 5 minutes. You can even use it for a hamburger bun. Recipe follows.
Look up some of the recipes posted here and get the ingredients. Just DO IT. You'll get better as you go along.
One-Minute Muffin
1 Tablespoon butter
1/4 cup flaxseed meal -- (can use almond meal, oat fiber, coconut flour or a mixture)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 egg
1 teaspoon xylitol (or 1-2 Spenda pkts or 1 T S/F flavored syrup Torani/Da Vinci)
Melt butter in a coffee cup or measuring cup. Add rest of ingredients and mix well – microwave approximately 50-60 seconds (depending on micro wattage). Turn out and let cool. Muffin top should look shiny and a little moist. Serve w/butter or cream cheese while warm or plastic wrap for later.
