This is what I’m actually eating while working to stay strong, lose weight and stay independent after 70.
Nothing complicated. Just simple food–made a little better.
Upgrade Your Favorites
I didn’t change everything I eat. I just started making better versions of the same foods.
Protein Angel Cake
The regular version is light-but mostly sugar. This version keeps it light and actually fills you up.
- I cup egg whites
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1 scoop vanilla whey
- 2-3 tbsp sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla, pinch of salt
Bake at 350 degrees for about 20-25 minutes.
*More protein means fewer cravings later.
Oat Protein Crackers
Regular crackers are easy to overeat. These are simple, crunchy and more satisfying.
- 1 cup oat flour
- 1/2 scoop protein powder
- Water (enough to form dough)
- Salt
Roll very thin and bake at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes.

These are simple, high-protein smoothies I use regularly to stay full and energized.
