Does anyone have any healthy and delicious breakfast ideas for on the go?

Lazy_Nash Overnight oats heaven in a bowl
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter Chia seed pudding is great since you can make it overnight. I also agree with @Lazy_Nash, overnight oats are the bomb. Check out the Foodstand guidebook for the Avoid Sugar at Breakfast and you may...

annefood Hey @bananazen92 ! Glad you're doing the Avoid Sugar at Breakfast Challenge! Smoothies are my go-to when I need to dash out the door. I put a couple large spoonfuls of plain yogurt in the blender...
Can anyone suggest healthy vegan dinner ideas
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter Since it's fall, chili is my go-to meal for dinner. It's easy to make vegan if you swap out animal stock for vegetable stock and ground meat with either tempeh or tofu. It's completely up to you so...

ManyaModi @darkchocolatepeanutbutter thanks for the advice 😊
-
annefood Hey @ManyaModi ! So glad you're trying to cook dinner more often! One of my favorite vegan meals is these Roasted Garbanzo Beans https://www.annefood.com/blog/fennel-roasted-garbanzo-beans with...
So does drinking milk count?
-
bananazen92 Apparently, there was a study that this was not healthy for you, actually. According to the study, drinking eight glasses of water a day, even when you aren't thirsty can stop your gag reflex. This...
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter @bananazen92- I'm not aware of this study but I would take it with a grain of salt. Everyone requires different amounts of water depending on various factors (ex. physical activity, age, stress...

ritujat thanks! @darkchocolatepeanutbutter and @bananazen92
How do the checks work?
Do I check-in every time I drink 1 glass of water? Why is there 6 options for the check in?
-
emmie I think there are multiple options so you don't have to check in multiple times if you've just drank a couple glasses glasses of water :)
-
cyndecastro So should I check in at the end of the day as a total amount?
-
emmie You can if you'd like, but I think it's easier to keep track if you do it throughout the day
Quick question , do dried cranberries have added sugar in them ?
-
annefood @Lazy_Nash good question! Unfortunately yes, most do. Since cranberries are so tart, they are always sweetened when dried. Occasionally you can find fruit juice sweetened dried cranberries at a...
-
JenniferEmilson Some health food stores do carry sour dried cranberries. In other words, no sugar added. When you find them, stock up!! 👌🏻
-
annefood Good to know @JenniferEmilson ! I've never seen them entirely unsweetened in all of my health food store travels.
Drinking tea or a lemonade still counts right? And milk doesn't?
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Yep! Tea counts! For lemonade, if you're making making homemade with just a pinch of sugar or honey, that's ok. But store-bought lemonade oftentimes has more sugar than soda, so that wouldn't...

How many litres count for 8 glasses? when I'm at school I drink bottled water
-
NicoleDanielle Well, one cup of water measured out is 8oz, so just look at your bottle of water and look at the oz.
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Hey @Melissa898 - 1L = a little more than 4 cups. So if you get through 2 of your bottles, you'll be more than good to go!
Alternatives to carbohydrates? I went to the doctors and they said my triglycerides were high, but carbs are my literal fave. help me pls.
-
darkchocolatepeanutbutter Hey @chasketti! You don't need to give up carbs, just consider smaller portions of some of your favorites since eating too much of any food can increase body fat or triglyceride levels. Also...
-
chasketti Alright, thank you! I exercise about 2 times a week, but I might investigate family history. Thanks!
-
annefood @chasketti in addition to @darkchocolatepeanutbutter 's great advice about moderation, when you do eat carbs try switching to whole grains. Instead of white bread/toast try Ezekiel Bread...

@dork Sometimes it's hard to separate emotional hunger from physical hunger. Take time to distract yourself with other activities you enjoy like exercise or journaling. You could just be craving...

Hey @dork ! Try to transfer the habit away from food and onto a cup of herbal tea or water (either hot or cold) with lemon like @nloai001 suggested. It may be that you've simply gotten into the...
