Coffee with 1/2 and 1/2
11:00 1/3 cup cream of wheat (no milk, just boiled water to make it) or low fat plain Greek yogurt with homemade unsweetened granola and a teaspoon of honey Afternoon snack - fruit, nuts, 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheeses, boiled egg white, or baby carrots Dinner - 4oz chicken or fish and veggies |
This is called anorexia |
Hahaha I wish. I’m 174 pounds! That’s called a 52 year old perimenopausal woman with low iron, borderline cholesterol, and skirting the low end of overweight. That’s 1,500 - 1,800 calories. |
Breakfast:
Cherrios, Skim milk, with a sliced banana, and blueberries, a small glass of light Vitamin D orange juice, and a cup of coffee with cream and sugar free coffee syrup Lunch: 3 low carb soft tacos with salsa, parmesan cheese sprinkles, lettuce, with spicy black bean veggie burger patty crumbled as the meat substitute with a side of steamed mixed veggies (I like corn, so I eat it with mixed veggies) Dinner: Large salad with grape tomatoes, red onions, green peppers, with a small slice of garlic toast This isn't low carb. It is around 1200 calories. I feel very full. I don't snack throughout the day. I drink a lot of water throughout the day. For me, I'm always hungry in the morning. I like to eat breakfast with fresh fruit and OJ. I know that some claim fruit juice is bad for you. OJ has helped me with my immune system. |
Breakfast:
Cup of Oikos triple zero + 1/2 cup 0% Fage + 1/4c blueberries + 1/4c walnuts Lunch: 2 eggs, 1/2 avocado, low carb tortilla, lettuce, 1oz cheese (plus whatever hot sauce or salsa you prefer) Snack: 1/2c raspberries, Core Power elite shake Dinner: 2c Zoodles, 1/2c Rao’s marinara, 1/3c mozzarella 1 cup broccoli sautéed in veggie broth 1324 calories 116g protein 44 net carbs 70g fat 34g fiber |
That’s so silly. Of course you can do high protein. You build your macros around protein and let everything else fall into place under the calories. For me: An egg white omelet with spinach and grated Parmesan. 25 G protein 160 cals. Lunch is big salad with 37 G protein sliced turkey. 207 calories. Snack is protein shake with coffee 30 G protein, 160 cals. Dinner stir fry of rice, broccoli and lean ground turkey, 35 G protein and 340 cals. That’s 860 base calories there and a shit ton of food. I basically feel like I’m eating nonstop!! 108 Grams protein. You can add items to up that count. I count macros and use an app! |
How much oil are you adding to your food? Are you gulping half n half? There's no way you're eating 1800 from your diet plan (see below) Coffee with 1/2 and 1/2 - 1 tub of half n half is 15 calories, so 20 calories here 11:00 1/3 cup cream of wheat (no milk, just boiled water to make it) or low fat plain Greek yogurt with homemade unsweetened granola and a teaspoon of honey - 150 calories Afternoon snack - fruit, nuts, 1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheeses, boiled egg white, or baby carrots - one banana is 120 calories Dinner - 4oz chicken or fish and veggies - 200 calories Total of 500 calories a day. nice try anorexia |
What a weird hang up? Several people have posted essentially the same diet plans as me. You’ve got zero clue about calorie counts and anorexia. I use Noom and can tell you exactly what my calorie count was of almost every day for 7 months (see cholesterol comment above). Every single day (minus holidays, vacation and cheat days) I’ve been bt 1500 and 1800 calories. But I guess you know an anorexic when you see one. |
Breakfast: Greek yogurt with whatever fruit we have. Today was a peach
Lunch: can of tuna mixed with 1/2 teaspoon of light mayo. Spread on celery sticks. Plus two or three dill pickles. Mid afternoon snack: either Fairlife protein shake or container of Greek yogurt. Dinner: whatever my family is eating, but I go heavier on the meat and veggies and lighter on the carbs. This week we had Eggroll in a bowl, tacos, chicken sandwiches, pork tenderloin, beef and broccoli. |
Ridiculous. Go look up what anorexia really is. Anorexia is not simply having a lower calorie diet of healthy foods. It’s like, eating nothing but celery for one two-hour window during the night when no one can see you eat. You guys use that word way too casually and it makes you look ignorant. |
And a sad sad way to live. Do you exercise at all? I’m also a 52 year old in menopause and eat way more than that but I workout 5-6 days a week. Intense workouts most days not just walking. Normal weight. Id rather be fat then eat this way. |
OP it's possible. Don't listen to.foljs who are labeling you..
Your BMR depends on how busy size, mine is 1150 and I am very fit. What's your BMR? I don't count my calories but always eat more of nutrients rich foods..have you tried apps like Fitness pal to understand what's your current diet is calorie cause and you can adjust for where you want to be. |
True. Go and watch movies/shows from the 70s to see what people looked like before overeating took over this country. |
Oh honey |
And she would rather eat this way than be fat. Why do you care? |
