What are you eating?

Thats what I get as well. Its amazing. And interestingly, my favorite way to cook it is in the air fryer. I love it. Its my sunday brunch every week.
Do you go straight from frozen into the air fryer?

That's what's so good about it for breakfast in the sous vide. I cook it in the same package it comes in straight from the freezer. 45min at 146.5 is too hot and/or too long for it, but it is still good, I just admit that it's overcooked and I'm cool with that.

When I was working swing shifts I would wake up, get the sous vide up to temp while I had a cup of coffee, put my breakfast in to cook while I went to the gym 2min from my house to do a 35min workout, come home and eat my food then shower and get ready for my day. It was perfect. I loved working swing shift.
 
I'm staying at my Dad's house, alone, for the next while, trying to clean up and get ready to sell it, so I've just gotten a bunch of things that are either easy or I can get lots of leftovers out of. Tonight, I think I'm making some taco meat, should be good for 2-3 days of dinners. Or maybe I'll make a frozen pizza, but this ground beast has to get cooked up...

I also have just a ton of his food that I'm trying to go thru. A bunch will probably be taken to the food bank, just stuff that none of my family wants. Like a can of sardines.
Funny story that probably isn't funny.

When I was in HS the friends I ran with gave me the unwanted nickname "sardines." Now I didn't eat sardines, I would sometimes get kipper snacks when we did a gas station run or whatever because I really liked kipper snacks. I guess "kipper" wasn't as good a nickname so they went with sardines.

I used to do the same with my instant pot. Prep steel cut oats the night before, had it on a timer to be done when I got home from the gym. Come home, shower, eat oats and hard boiled eggs and head out. One of my favorite meals for breakfast.

No I put in the fridge the night before I cook it to thaw. I put paprika, a little garlic salt, pepper and vegetable oil on it and then put it in the air fryer for 9 minutes at 390 degrees. Its perfect.

Sounds really good
 
Tonight will be rib eyes, dry aged for 35 days, sous vide at 132 for 1.5 hours, then finished on the chimney charcoal starter with hickory chunks in it, great way to sear sous vide steaks. Chimichurri on the side. I also make a blue cheese/horse radish compound butter with roasted garlic and whatever fresh herbs I have (this time rosemary and parsley), so I usually put a slab of that on the steaks right as they finish searing, melts in really well. Not a ton of horse radish, just enough for a bit of a bite, so it isn't overwhelming the steaks. Grilled corn on the side (I eat as much grilled corn as I can while it is in season, at least weekly, usually more often), along with grilled eggplant rounds and grilled asparagus. I grill all those on top of my charcoal starter while the fire is hot, so the veggies are just barely cooked but get a lot of great color on them. Just like grilled veggies should be. We are having friends over so this should be a great Friday night dinner before a cutthroat game of Ticket to Ride, Europe - yes we are the people who will buy the little 2 train stretches just to **** everybody else up. Heh.
 
Jambalaya tonight!

Side note, I removed sugar from my diet and lost 50 pounds in 7 months.
I removed sugar from my diet too. Except for Frosties from Wendy's. Oh and rocky road ice cream from State Brothers. Oh and hot chocolate a couple times a week. Oh and cheesecake, can't cut out cheesecake. And can't forget my wife's banana bread with chocolate chips and pecans. Oh and dark chocolate, gotta have some of that pretty much every day. Oh and sour gummies at the movies. And at home sometimes. Oreos are always in the pantry of course. I am sure there are some I forgot.

But other than that, I have completely cut out sugar, but I am not losing any weight. The whole cutting sugar thing is a scam!!
 
Mainly soda and occasional desserts like ice cream or candy if at the movies or something. I'd say mostly soda though.
Dropping soda, or at least limiting it, will help greatly. Even drinking diet is better, but I find limiting myself to maybe 1-2 a week works and no refills - what's in the cup is the drink.

Diet is 80% of losing weight - eat the right things, go for walks and you can make some great changes. You don't need rigorous cardio programs and expensive gym memberships that are going to burn you out quickly (not to mention that you try and exercise and do things you could do when you were a teen/in your 20's that your body simply can't recover from now).

I agree. To burn off the calories from a 44fl oz cup of soda it would be equivalent to a 5 mile walk. It's obviously a lot easier to cut out the soda than walk for 5 miles.
