Do you need help losing weight, but don't know where to begin?
My e-book Macros Made Easy can help!
The book is a detailed weight loss guide that shows you step-by-step how to build a weight loss plan specifically for you.
One of the most frustrating things about dieting is hitting weight loss plateaus. That's why Macros Made Easy also comes along with a spreadsheet to hold you accountable, and track your progress. The spreadsheet will also alert you when you need to make adjustments to your diet so you can continue losing weight, and avoid those annoying plateaus.
I started tracking my macronutrients (protein, carbohydrate, and fat intake) over 6 years ago - and I've lost over 70lbs because of it! Not only have I lost the weight, I've kept it off too. Plus, I didn't eliminate any foods from my diet to do it- and neither will you!
If you're ready to start your weight loss journey today, you can pick-up a downloadable copy of Macros Made Easy here!
Wanted to let you know that you've got a fan half-way across the world! (I'm based in Singapore.) Thanks for this awesome recipe! I baked this over the New Year's weekend, and it turned out really well. Excellent macros, and it tasted amazing. Can't wait to try some of your other recipes! Planning to try baking the healthy low-cal pumpkin pie next!
Sharon!
I apologize this has taken me so long. The day you wrote it I actually showed my fiance your comment...(sometimes it's just unreal to think someone 1/2 way across the world is making these recipes and loving them so much). I hope the pumpkin pie was/is a success! :)
Cheers!

Hi Joe!
Yes, isn't the internet the most wonderful thing? Love being able to connect with others half a world away!
The pumpkin pie turned out great, thank you for asking! I've left a comment over on that recipe page as well to let you know how pleased I was with the outcome. And of course, I've tagged you with a photo of my pie on Instagram :)
Best,
Sharon
I am a vegetarian . plz tell me how to replace egg whites from low cal banana cake
You probably can do 2 Tbsps of ground flax mixed with 6 Tbsps of water to replace the egg whites. I haven't made them this way, but it might work :)
Really hit the spot!!
