Good god! I gained 5 pounds because of two days off, eating "regular" food... I really hope it isn't always this hard, I will never keep it up over the long haul. Boiled fish and spinach gets SO OLD!

[PPC]

Slimmer, your oat pancakes rock! I had them with Greek yogurt, sugar free syrup and just a few peach slices. I can see how they have helped you make it thus far and not feel too deprived along the journey. My sixteen year old daughter is my taste test gauge when I make new "healthy" recipes. She is brutally honest and often wrinkles her nose and tells me my latest recipe is a dud. She loved these! So thanks. She and I both felt like we were eating desert for a full meal. Good sweet fix but the protein is sustaining.

I'm going to chime in here with some of my own tips and tricks to attain and then maintain a healthy weight here soon when I get a chance.

Light-weight, I gained 10 and didn't even try!

and that six letter word is 150% worse than four letter words!

Thanks for chiming in PPC~
And so glad your daughter likes the pancakes. I swear by 'em. And hope to see some of your tricks and tips. I bet yummy and healthy at the same time. Or let me re-phrase that. I know yummy and healthy at the same time!

Light-weight, I gained 10 and didn't even try!

only 2 here

and that six letter word is 150% worse than four letter words!

Nope. That 6 letter word is what saves me!

I did my cardio this am, fasted even!

Question about your awesome pancakes. Do you leave the mix in the refrigerator and make each serving fresh or make all three large pancakes at once? I left the mix in my fridge and pulled it out to make the last serving left for my breakfast this morning. The mix was very thick. I made a medium pancake and sort of spread it around the griddle. It still turned out fine though. The next one I added a little water to the blender and whizzed it out once again. This was easier to work with. Just wanted to know what you do since you're my Oat Pancake guru.

Then since I get obsessed about new, great recipes, I had the idea to make more plain or savory style ones - bread sized. So I left out the sweetener and vanilla and added a pinch of salt. I made heaps of sandwhich sized pancakes so for lunch I had a couple of sandwiches with lean roast beef, lettuce and horse radish sauce. They were yum even though they still looked like pancakes but still a tasty, high protein, bread alternative I think.

[oatmeal69]

Oh, those are some GOOD ideas PPC!!!
I miss sandwiches so much!

[tbody66]

For breakfast, I chugged a 16 oz glass of water with the ECA stack, followed by cardio then a cup of black coffee...MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM-MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM GOOD!

Grrrrrrrrrrreat! Same here....ticket to success for me~

Great idea about the sandwich! Love it~ Looking forward to trying that. GREAT IDEA! Thanks PPC!

And as far a making my batch. I make it all up at once and have a HUGE pancake for 3 days. I simply put the batter in the fridge and pour out another huge pancake the next day. It is amazing though. You will notice each and every batch is different from the next. Sometimes a bit thick then sometimes not so thick. So adding water to make it easier to pour is a good idea. I find that even with a thick batter the pancake all melts into the pan anyway thus taste the same. I make all of mine at once so I have 2 more meals ready which is KEY to me to have around especially since everything in it is nutrient rich.

Oh, those are some GOOD ideas PPC!!!

Isn't it? I bet you try it Oatmeal. I will....

Love hearing followed by cardio Tbody. You got it going now....

[oatmeal69]

Oh, I'm gonna do it for sure. I can't WAIT to have a roast beef sandwich with horseradish! REAL FOOD!!
Wonder if there's a way to add some yeast, and just bake it in a bread maker or something.

Has anyone tried Ezekiel Bread? What do you think about it's nutrient profile?

Yep a sandwich sounds good to me too. Leave it to PPC to think about how to turn a pancake into bread!

And Ezekiel. That is what I was recommended to eat here but not the best tasting IMO.
I am switching to PPC's Pancake bread....

Keeping off 29

'tis the season so I am happy .....

Hi slimmerme

Yay for keeping off 29.

So I am pretty jazzed about the pancake bread. I sent some to work with my husband. He's not too keen on horseradish so I used a little light mayo, lean beef, lettuce and some little dollops of Pete's hot sauce. I got a call from him saying those were the best sandwhiches he'd eaten in a long time.

I do have to say, I send him some pretty strange stuff sometimes so he's used to surprises but lately I've just been using Joseph's pitas for him. He likes the pancake bread a lot better and yes it's way more nutrient dense and healthy.

Slimmer, do you have Aldi store where you are? They now have Fage 0% for way less expensive than anywhere else. It's so great on the pancakes huh?. They also have a 'Fit and Active,' brand of eggbeaters that does not have a lot of junk in it, atleast no artificial colors. I made some more panbread using one cup of the eggbeaters instead of just whites and didn't have to add salt. The whole flavor was very rounded out and I think I like the bread with the eggbeaters rather than just the whites. But...I would love to add just a little rosemary next time because I'm crazy about that stuff.

BTW, the one batch of pancake mix makes 12 bread sized servings. I made them all at once and have them in the refrigerator for quick and easy access. So it's nice because at any meal you get to eat two sandwhiches using the total of four pieces of panbread. It feels indulgent. I did add 3 tablespoons of water to the bread mix.

Thanks so much for all of these ideas PPC. I am thrilled you are chiming in with your goodies of tasty ideas. Really really am.
And I like Fage and Chobani. Both are great. I love rosemary too. Can't get enough. I will share a rosemary chicken recipe with you that you will love too I bet. And healthy.

Do you simply shape the pancake like a piece of bread? or do you have a mold. Curious.

Thanks again....

[SlimmerMe]

THANK YOU TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU FOR HELPING ME MAKE THIS THE MOST HEALTHY YEAR OF MY ENTIRE LIFE!

Happy New Year right back to you Slima! I see your username in my head that way, so I get the urge to write it like that. Term of endearment, hope you don't mind.

I don't shape the pancake like bread. I just call it panbread so yeah, it looks like a pancake and sort of tastes like one but wouldn't you know, once you put fillings with it, the merge is quite wonderful. I forget about the shape then. A mould is a good idea though. It would work for those who like visually appealing food...me, I don't care as much about that, long as it tastes great.

Do I have this right? You cook the chicken in the yogurt and rosemary? In what manner do you cook it...in a little skillet or in the oven? I really like the idea of this because over quinoa it would be wonderful or just as great...wrapped in some savory pancake bread. Yeah, I'm going crazy over that stuff. BTW, the pancakes did not work using quinoa instead of oats...had to throw out that mix.

I really like the idea of this because over quinoa good idea, I like tiny green peas too it would be wonderful or just as great...wrapped in some savory pancake bread. Yeah, I'm going crazy over that stuff. BTW, the pancakes did not work using quinoa instead of oats...had to throw out that mix.

I will look up my chicken recipe for better details. And like you the shape of the panbread is not important. I was just wondering if you did in fact shape it like bread. I am about to eat one of my pancakes in a few minutes....YUM YUM!

Happy New Year, oh most awesome young lady!

Thanks Tbody, young gent you are~

Happy New Year Slimmer...here's looking to a slimmer 2012!!
