Why Can’t I Lose this Weight!

Published on | in #FFFF Challenge, Dietary Needs, Nutrition By
0 Comments

I feel like I have been trying to lose 20lbs for 10 years.  Let’s be real.  I am doing something wrong.  So I started paying more attention to the foods that I’m eating.  I’m 100% Vegan.  There is no way I should be having weight issues.  That is not real. It is a lie.  What you eat no matter who you are matters.

My issues have been consistency… I forget to eat, and by doing that it makes my body hold on to what it can because it doesn’t know when I will get another meal.  Facts.  So I have to be more consistent about eating.

Next issue, eating foods that are calorie dense.  The foods that I decided to eat once I finally got around to eating… were heavy. You can actually eat more and lose more if you focus on foods that are water rich.  Why? Because water dilutes the calories allowing you to eat more. I know it sounds crazy but listen… I have been learning more and more ya’ll.

An example… a cup of frickin raisins…. 500 calories. (which is more than a meal in our meal prep). Stay with me…now lets look at a cup of grapes.. (seeded of course) that same cup is only 62 calories!!!!!!!!

YEP. GO BACK AND READ THAT AGAIN!

And the result…both cups will make you feel full but one is WAYYYY HEAVIER!

So pay attention to the foods that you are eating, or they heavy and calorie dense? or Light & Water Rich?

This is Day 6 of the #Faith #Family #Food #Fitness Challenge (Click Here to Learn More #FFFFChallenge) and I am totally trying to make a difference in my body!  So join in with me… it doesn’t matter when you start, the blessing is that you just START!

What has been some of the struggles of your weightless journey?

The Easiest Tostada Recipe Ever

This week we have a classic mexican dish called a Tostada. The recipe is super easy ..like literally the easiest….and as I always say… these recipes are living and can be adjusted to your liking. Great for a Taco Tuesday or any day you have a strong craving for mexican food! This tostada recipe is straight fire! I went to one of my new favorite spots in Detroit, Honey Bee Market – La Colmena to grab fresh tostadas too! Please understand if you go there you will get sucked in.  The aroma.  The fresh guacamole and salsa daily.  If you go to the back of he store you can order food to go!!  It is ridiculous! I love it! The Produce is fantastical!  Just go!  Please!!!I can’t wait for you all to try this one. The Yumminess is at an All Time High!!! LOL 🙂

Day #16 / #75Hard with Cooking with Que Challenge

#Day16 Moment of Transparency
Good Morning. #Day16

Everyday won’t be easy. Diamonds don’t become Diamonds if there is no pressure applied. Tears will flow. You will own them. Journeys aren’t journeys because they are easy. There is a reason for Growing Pains.
It is ok.

This is the face of someone who is Full. Who took a break by hiding in their truck. This face understands that being tested pushes you to new levels. God has a reason for everything. Fail forward.
Look at the whole picture.
What went right.
What went wrong.
What can you control.
What / Who can you not control.
15 Minute Cry.
Scream and Ask God His expectations.
Wait Quietly for the Response.
Move Forward.

Moment of Transparency .
No one is Perfect.
God made us all perfectly flawed.
The Bonus.
God Made Us.
GOD DOESN’T MAKE MISTAKES.
Chew. On. That.

I pray that you all are in great health or healing Godspeed!  At Cooking with Que & The Kitchen by Cooking with Que, the health and safety of our entire community is our top priority. Today we’re sharing a number of updates with our clients about new health and safety guidelines related to COVID-19 as well as features available on the Cooking with Que site.

We’re working closely with national and local authorities as well as a panel of health and safety experts to actively monitor the situation and ensure we’re operating safely with minimal disruption to service. Just know what are taking appropriate precautions to safely deliver your items. All Meal Prep Items will now be in completely disposable recyclable containers until we are in the clear.  Thank you to everyone who has been apart of us saving the planet thus far by returning recycled containers, but for the safety of our community we will be using completely disposable recyclable containers.

Dining at The Kitchen by Cooking with Que
There is a reason why we are known as the cleanest Kitchen in the City of Detroit, because of our overly precautious cleaning methods.  Our goal is to teach our community how to eat to live, and we will continue to do so.

The one thing I hear all the time is for parties and gatherings people want to have fried wings.  I’m totally ok with going against the grain…and avoiding fried foods! I totally despise the way it smells like old grease after it’s done! LOL!   So I wanted to create a recipe that didn’t need to fry, but still give you the crunch.

This is for Vegans and Meateaters, it give you the feel of the most perfectly fried dish but… it’s baked!

HELLO!

Serve it with your favorite sauces! Buffalo, BBQ and Vegan Ranch are my favs! OMG! Let me stop talking and give you all the recipe! LOL

Quick Update

Hi Family,

It has been OFF THE CHAIN!  We just went into our fourth week of being open and it has been amazing!  Like  soo amazing.  Let me be honest though. The work is real.  I've been doing Live Demonstrations, for over 4 years now.  Running a new brick and mortar, that we've decided to offer healthy lunch to our community is a whole nothing situation.  I know everyone thing that social media tells the real story.. THAT IS A LIE! No one sees the hard work, the long late hours, the crying, the wondering if you are doing things right, the falling forward.  None of that. It's legit HARD WORK!

I didn't tell anyone I quit my dream day job on May third, and it got real.....REAL QUICK.  But you all know how I roll, if God tells me to go, I'm running. I'm not asking any questions I'm out (and we all know how much I loved my job...okay!!!)     Surely, God has something else in store for me.  There has been learning curves, hiccups and whatever else you want to call it.  but...IT IS WORTH IT!  YOU HEAR ME SAINTS!!! IT'S WORTH IT!
WHAT'S COOKING?
Classes start next wee, and for the last month, we have been serving up lunch from 11-2pm.  We have a wonderful ever changing menu, but there is always smoothies, salads, and sandwiches. Every Friday we are hosting an event called the Afterwork Wine Down, where you can enjoy your bottle, and our healthy cuisine.  Starting in July... get ready for our monthly Chef Battle, and Kitchen Karaoke (info coming soon).
