HELP! Out of Ideal Protein land and need to get back on track!
Hi,
My user name is CatinCali, but now I am CatinIsrael! I have been living here for 1 year, 3 months, and love it, but unfortunately, and much to my dismay, I have gained about 15 pounds since I have been here.
Somehow, I didn't expect that, being familiar with all the wonderful fruits, vegetables and salads that are here. Alas,there are also wonderful carbs! There are bakeries and cafes around every corner, and of course, hummus and pita is a way of life. I also have found that lettuces, celery and delicate greens like that are not easy to find in the summer as all of those need lots of water to grow, and we live in a dessert.
Ideal Protein is not available in Israel, and I need help designing a diet that is like that. I have purchased SunWarrior Classic Plus Protein Powder to form a basis of a new diet. Each serving has 100 calories, 1g of fat, 18g of Protein, 2 Net Carbs.
What else would you suggest I do to make this a complete program? Should I be using almond milk or soy milk with this? What about other meals? This is the only protein supplement I have found, so I think I would die of boredom if I just consumed this and one meal a day.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
