Pancakes with Fresh Fruit

    Not sure where you would find them in person outside of restaurant supply stores, but if you do a search for 2oz sauce cups, a few places sell them online. (I'm USA based)

    Honestly I'm a horrible cook, so I couldn't tell you! I'm personally a big fan of pancakes with a non-syrup wet/moist topping. These came with a dollop of mascarpone and some lemon curd that just hit the spot!

    Seconding this! Also when it happens, I get an endless "Could not find this user" error at the bottom unless I close and reopen the app.

  • 1. I'd love for there to be an option for some sort of persistent opaque header so that the status bar is visible/doesn't overlap text. 2. A more robust search. Some way to separate searching by post, community, instance, user, etc. It's sometimes super difficult to find the community I'm looking for, especially if the name is a word commonly used in posts

    Alternative Calorie Counting Apps to MFP?
  • mewpichu mewpichu 1y ago 100%

    I'm a big fan of Calorie Counter by Lose It. It has a nice UI and a lot of bells and whistles (including barcode scanner) included in the free version. I actually pay for premium now because I like the app so much.

  • [vent] does anyone else get frustrated at larger folks who want to lose weight?
  • mewpichu mewpichu 1y ago 100%

    So my partner is also taller, fatter, and has more muscle mass. We're both trying to lose weight, and she set her pace to be twice as fast as mine, but I believe she still eats ~500cal more than me per day. So yes, it sucks.

    As a fellow shorty, I find it was such a game changer to add some weight training. I've only lost ~7lb so far, but my muscles have become significantly stronger and it allows me to up my daily intake bit by bit.

    Also, if 1200 feels unsustainable, definitely give a smaller deficit a try. The best plan is the one you can do, not the one that gets you to the goal the fastest.

    If sure there's a pros and cons list for green screen vs LED wall, but honestly I think it's just so amazing that LED tech has come as far as it has so quickly!

  • Is the anabolic window a real thing?
  • mewpichu mewpichu 1y ago 100%

    My understanding is that the anabolic window may or may not be a thing depending on the source, but with how digestion works, you can't really line up the moment absorption with said window. I believe there are some studies out there showing that the timing of eating pre vs. post workout didn't have a large impact on muscle gain as opposed to just making sure you're getting enough calories and protein on a daily basis.

    My fav is #3. Simple enough that you can decipher it in a small format while clearly communicating what it is.

    Oh man I feel high on endorphins I (27F) got into heavy lifting at the start of April as a means to help with fat loss because I'm super short. I PR'd my squat (65kg) AND my deadlift (75kg) today. Never thought I'd make so much progress so quickly, newbie gains be damned. And I still have so much fat to lose, and so much muscle to gain! Feeling stronger by the day, and super excited to grow with this community!

    Surprisingly, yes. Filming on location and all the logistics that go along with that can balloon the cost real fast, especially for multiple locations. (Site fees, travel, talent costs, additional security, a separate crew unit, etc) CGI allows you to create different locations through green screen, which majorly cuts down on a lot of the scheduling/logistics. Sometimes green screen will be just a window, other times it will be literally the entire set.
