Your bean debacle sounds like something I've done before,,, the blender part,,, OMG! Glad the beans were good. I love your posts about your crockpot adventures. I've really only used mine to cook beans. I'm going to try chili and soups. I've been thinking a lot about lentil soup lately. You may have inspired me to get it made!

Loving this bean story! Sounds like something I would do, except I'd probably blow out the motor on my blender in the process
now I'm hungry for beans

I'm not really clear on how to objectively measure compliance with MWL--- so thoughts from others are welcomed!!! Lay it on me!!

the mwl is an application of the principles of caloric density

this post should get you started on the path to the math
its not just that the specific foods eaten have to be low in calorie density,
the caloric density of the whole meal can be reduced in a wholistic way by adding fiber+water
literally, take any meal, add veggies and water
it was a profoundly productive epiphany for me
my already satiating meals became even more satiating
im meeting all RDAs
etc
its just fantastic.
