[Vegetarianslimming] Re:?

 

Nutritional yeast is an ingredient in recipes. Why take it as a supplement
when it is a delicious flavoring. Use Red Star or other good tasting
nutritional yeast. It should taste good - not have a nasty aftertaste that
comes in some brands.

If you go to the Files on the group web page, then to Recipes, then Fakes,
you will find some great recipes for vegan un-cheeses made with nutritional
yeast. My favorite recipe by Joanne Stepaniak is Chick Peas a la King -
also made with nutritional yeast. Is that in our files, Pat?

I am a new vegan and am interested in nutritional yeast to make sure that I receive vitamin B12. Do you take this supplement and if so what brand/type do you take? Where do you purchase it? Thanks, Cheryl

DRAGON - Re: [Vegetarianslimming] I'm still around *grin*

 

Hi Dragon,
 
It's good to know the leg seems to be healing well at last.  It has kept you sidelined for way too long. 
 
Great work on staying positive about the weight loss even though things have been moving slowly for reasons beyond your control.  When a setback like this happens it is so easy to throw in the towel but you have avoided that trap.
 
I love the idea of breaking a large task into more manageable chunks.  That way you can concentrate on a mini goal which seems more reasonable and achievable in the short term while still keeping focussed on the long term goal.
 
Cheers from Marie

back to blubber busting!

The wound is shrinking nicely (it was 18mm x 14mm low today so the depth
is no where near as deep and it wound itself has gone from 25mm x 18 mm
so that is smaller as well), the only thing is I am fed up of not being
able to wear the majority of my clothes, at the moment I seem to be
stuck in the "fat bird" never out of joggers/sweats routine, the one
pair of trousers that do sorta fit are a little snug in the thigh area!!
But hopefully as I say now the wound is healing well I should be able
to start to do something about that.

Stage one - lose 5kg

Stage two - lose another 5 kg and so on!

Re: [Vegetarianslimming] I'm still around *grin*

 

Hi Dragon!

I like your "stages" idea! It helps to meet goals when we make more of them for the short term, I've found. My goal last year was to lose 60 pounds and yes, I got a little bummed I missed that mark. But I did lose 30 so I need to focus on what I did do instead of what didn't happen! :-)

Glad you are feeling a bit better!

Okay quick update time - my weight stayed the same this week at 144.4 kg

(318.35 lb or 22 stone 10.35 lb), this is actually quite good as it

seems that the oedema is settling down and I should soon be able to get

back to blubber busting!

The wound is shrinking nicely (it was 18mm x 14mm low today so the depth

is no where near as deep and it wound itself has gone from 25mm x 18 mm

so that is smaller as well), the only thing is I am fed up of not being

able to wear the majority of my clothes, at the moment I seem to be

stuck in the "fat bird" never out of joggers/sweats routine, the one

pair of trousers that do sorta fit are a little snug in the thigh area!!

But hopefully as I say now the wound is healing well I should be able

to start to do something about that.

Stage one - lose 5kg

Stage two - lose another 5 kg and so on!

[Vegetarianslimming] Mostly Potato Oven Fried Pancakes

 

Dear Friends,

Your non-vegetarian friend has done it again. It wasn't until my husband
pointed out that I'd done a good job of getting my kids to eat their
veggies for lunch without a whimper that I realized it. He called my lunch
vegetarian. It wasn't because the vegetables had been cooked with meat, but of
course, there was simply no reason why this dish shouldn't be vegetarian.
Just don't cook the vegetables with meat. Duh. LOL

In fact, I wouldn't have CHOSEN to do cook them with meat except that I
was making use of leftovers, and that was how my husband had prepared the
veggies, but there was no need to do it that way. In fact, I realized that if
you substituted a vegetarian thickening/sticking agent in for the eggs
(such a thing does exist, no?), this would actually be a vegan dish.

Anyway, I thought you might enjoy it. It is low fat, healthy, and (tah
dah!) child-friendly. My decidedly carnivorous older son LOVED it. My
(pescatarian) little boy loved it, too. However, please forgive me. I was
using leftovers and eyeballing it. Therefore, amounts are a bit sketchy.
Where I know an amount, I'll say so. Where I don't, I'll do my best to
approximate, but I trust in your intelligence. When you see the texture is right,
it's right. The "batter" shouldn't be too thin or too thick. I'm sure
you can shuffle the ingredients to get it right.

So... without further ado... here it is...

Mostly Potato Oven Fried Pancakes

Ingredients:
3 huge boiled red potatoes (I used the skins, too)
cooked cabbage, a bunch (not too much or the pancakes will be too loose and
you'll have to add too much filler), chopped up
1 box sliced white mushrooms, chopped up a bit
2 extra large eggs (more if you need them; egg substitute is fine)
fat free refried beans (I used leftovers... I'd guess about half a can)
reduced fat (light) firm tofu (again, I used leftovers, perhaps half a box)
cooked Rice or grains (I used leftover Rice Select Whole Grains from 2
different blends- it's a rice grain blend. You can use any rice or grain). I
don't know how much I used, maybe half a cup or a little more?
Irish stone ground oatmeal (enough to make the texture seem right... maybe
a cup?)
whole wheat flour (just a bit... maybe a quarter to a third of a cup)
soy sauce
bit of minced garlic and fresh ground black pepper
cooking spray
That's it... at least I think that's it.

Directions:
Mash everything up and smoosh it together. Take a Pyrex pan (I used 2
large ones) and spray with Pam or other cooking spray. Use a tablespoon to
"measure" your patties (I used an old-not old fashioned, but almost
antique-huge silver spoon; I mention this only because old utensils were larger than
their modern counterpart... MUCH larger). Then roll them up into balls in
your hands and place them in the Pyrex pans. Use a large spachelor to
flatten the balls into patties. Bake at 350 for about half an hour, checking
every ten minutes for doneness. Then serve with applesauce and/or fat free
sour cream. That's it. The kids enjoy doing much of the smooshing for
you; just make sure their hands are clean first!

[Vegetarianslimming] File - Thought For Food

(Vegetarian Health and Slimming Group)

THOUGHT FOR FOOD!

1. The Thought:

Do Vegetarians and Vegans ever need to lose weight? Of course we do (through a variety of circumstances, which usually boils down to taking in more fuel than we are able to burn off). Sad but true, fat happens. Something we can do on this list is exchange wonderful recipes in keeping with our needs. (The exercise is up to you - but we're with you in spirit!) As a quick rule of thumb, it's best to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables, the more colours the better, whole grains rather than refined grains, and less processed food and sugars.

2. The Food:

SLIMMING: Of course, *all* recipes sent here should be vegetarian, tried-and-true *and* suitable for slimming (weight loss), which is to say not loaded with high-calorie ingredients such as too much sugar, dried fruit, sweetened preserves, etc. That's just obvious. Also, however, please note that this is a low-fat group and we, therefore, draw attention to some foods that should be either avoided or used only in small amounts in the recipes posted:

* full-fat dairy, including cheese, cream, yoghurt, butter, etc.
* full-fat soy products
* coconut cream and milk
* most nuts
* margarine and cooking oils
* peanut butter and the like
* mayonnaise and fatty salad dressings
* olives
* avocados

There are probably more (send them in if you think of them!) to be added, but this gives the general idea. Many dairy and soy products, nut butters and coconut milks, etc., can frequently be found in low-fat form and these are more suitable. Other ingredients (dairy cheese, for eg., and nuts, fatty fruits, etc.) are great for garnish, of course, and/or a little added flavour, but not as a major ingredient.

(A good tip: Always read the nutritional data even on packages of prepared foods labelled Vegetarian or Vegan, including faux 'meats'.)

Hope this helps a bit ;-) Don't let it scare you - we'll help happily if you have a recipe you'd like to use but need to 'slim' it down!

[Vegetarianslimming] File - VEGETARIAN SLIMMING GUIDELINES

NEW VEGETARIAN SLIMMING GUIDELINES
(As of May 2006, with minor amendments September 2008)

1. Posts should be of general interest about
vegetarian health and slimming (weight loss),
including recipes (see below). This is not the place,
however, for medical advice.

2. We welcome only *Tried-and-True* recipes
(kitchen-tested by the member) which are low-fat as
well as low in sugar and calories, suitable for
slimming/weight loss. Recipes must be vegetarian (or
vegan) and edited to exclude all references to meat
and dead-animal products. Eggs, dairy and honey are
permitted. Please indicate the source of any recipes
which you did not originate yourself.
Please post the recipes to the list in the usual manner,
adding an indication "Recipe" in the subject line.
A moderator will then place the recipes in
the appropriate folder in the Files on our web page.

3. Please observe the following:
No anti-vegetarian (or anti-vegan) posts or material;
no political and/or religious posts or material; no
commercial posts or material which benefit, directly
or indirectly, the member or the member's family in any
way. (Links to members' own *non*-commercial web pages,
blogs and/or groups may be included in the Members'
folders at the top of the Links page and/or be
included discreetly [url only] below a member's
signature in a posted message.)

4. The usual warning about spam, flames, x-rated
material, etc., apply, as do the rules of Netiquette.

5. Any queries about the above or problems arising
should be directed to the moderators at the following
address: vegetarianslimming-owner@yahoogroups.com

Many thanks.
