Ideas for gluten free bread?

I have celiac so I need to avoid bread — most gluten free breads/wraps end up being 4-5 pts per. I’ve found Toufayan wraps (3-4 depending on flavor) and Canyon Bakehouse Heritage bread (3 pts) to be the best. I see everyone having 1-2 point wraps and breads and I’m envious! Any other options for gluten free? submitted by /u/piersrayne [link] [comments] from Proven weight loss success since 1963...now with 10% more Oprah http://bit.ly/2V3HL1Y

Mazen has really started to get into sports lately! I had never heard him mention baseball or basketball before, and he apparently knows about both. I assume from PE class or the school playground.

[Sourdough] Cheesy Kale & Everything Bagels

My latest sourdough specialty is the almighty BAGEL. The technique that makes this bread so classically dense and chewy is a dunk in boiling water before baking. When the dough is boiled, its exterior undergoes starch gelatinization – granules of starch absorb water, they swell, and their tightly... from Nutrition Blog Network http://bit.ly/2WeNTkw

Best points system for a vegetarian (ovo-lacto)?

Hey y'all!! I lost 60 pounds a while back on the old system my mom taught me, or the system that iTrack Bites calls Classic Bites, for those of you who use that app. I put on a little chub last year when I graduated college and would like to get back in the program. Only difference is now I'm vegetarian, and I'm wondering if there is a particular points system that works best with my lifestyle? There are sooo many WW styles now and I know everyone has an opinion about which is best so I'm not sure if I should stick with the old system or switch it up now that I'm veggie. Any help would be appreciated! For context I am a beginner vegetarian and still eat egg and dairy products. Thanks 💜💜💜 submitted by /u/chocmalt [link] [comments] from Proven weight loss success since 1963...now with 10% more Oprah http://bit.ly/2VuFUD1

How do I stay on track over a party weekend?

Heeeelp! I’m brand new to weight watchers and really want to lose weight. However, I have a lot of “party” weekends with friends coming up and this one will be a doozy. Any tips/tricks for how to stay on track? I’m worried I’ll blow through points drinking and then have hangover food the next day 😩 submitted by /u/carlsish [link] [comments] from Proven weight loss success since 1963...now with 10% more Oprah http://bit.ly/2Wh5SGW

It’s Official: Hemp Seed Is The Most Gut-Friendly Protein Powder You Can Buy

Image
If you’ve ever been in the market for protein powder, you would know that navigating your way through all the different types out there can be an absolute minefield. Not only do you have to consider things like taste and texture, above all, ingredients and nutritional profile can also be an automatic deal-breaker. Those with dietary requirements such as dairy-free may steer clear from whey protein. Similarly, those who follow a low-FODMAP diet will opt against pea protein—and almost everyone nowadays is mindful of sugar content, all-natural ingredients and zero fillers. So when we heard that hemp seed might be the non-dairy, gut-friendly , hormone-balancing protein powder we’ve all been waiting for, we wanted to know more. We sat down with Georgia Branch, co-founder of Australian hemp brand, Hemple  to learn all about the health benefits of hemp seed protein powder and why it makes a great addition to your diet.

25+ Self-Care Gift Ideas To Treat Your Mum With This Mother’s Day
