| Idk about professional nutritionists. My ex was an rd, and he had no more idea about food as related to life than a tree. Finding out how actual people deal with things is much better. |

Breakfast: Trader Joe's frozen steel cut oatmeal and some sliced almonds

Lost 10 lbs last month and still going by doing a Whole30 (paleo). No grains no dairy no sugar no legumes no sweetners, no soy. No processed food really.
Today: 2 eggs, banana, burger patty with bacon tomatoes and grilled onions, sweet potato fries, handful of olives, grilled asparagus, grilled chicken breast slathered in coconut oil and spices before griling, cucumber salad with homemade olive oil mayo fresh herbs onions garlic spices etc., two dates, and two black iced coffees Fat but not fo long, paleo eating is the best |
The two times I've gone to a nutritionist, I've been disappointed with the advice I've gotten. Menus with lots of margarine, low salt versions of processed food, fat free creamer, fat free sour cream, treats with artificial sweetners. I may not eat the best diet, but at least I eat real food from real ingredients. |

agreed ^
any nutritionist that recommends eating "fake" food shouldn't call themselves a nutritionist. |

| We should change the name of this thread to "What did you eat today, and do you have body image issues?" |
I eat more than that by 11 am each day. Same height as you, 155 pounds. Do you work out? |

AM hour-long treadmill workout
BF: Green monster smoothie (1 greek yogurt (vanilla today, but often lemon), 1 cup frozen fruit (blueberries and strawberries today), 1 frozen banana, 1/2 cup skim milk, fill remaining blender space w/baby spinach (about 2-3 cups)); can of Diet Coke. Snack: Trader Joe's chewy peanut butter granola bar; carrot chips and 3 tablespoons plain hummus; can of Diet Coke. Lunch: Egg salad (2 hard-boiled eggs, 1 tablespoon mayo, 2-3 teaspoons Dijon mustard) on a whole grain sandwich thin with a handful of spring mix lettuce; water. I will likely go to happy hour today and have a couple of beers, so I'll skip afternoon snack (which is usually 1/4 cup of roasted almonds, sometimes with a 1/4 cup of dried cherries or cranberries). Dinner will be a reasonably-sized portion of leftover chicken and spicy peanut noodles (homemade). No snacks after dinner, pretty much ever. Lots of water throughout the evening. I am down more than 20 pounds from my highest weight, with about 20 still to go to get to my goal weight. Myfitnesspal.com has been great for tracking calories, etc. and keeping me focused. I also am making a huge effort to meal plan for the week each Sunday, and get my lunches and snacks made the night before so I can just grab and go in the morning. |
WOW! You ate nothing but caffeine and empty carbs. |
Eating more than this by 11 a.m. sure sounds better than only eating this much all day! At 5'6 and 155 are you healthy aka fit? Can't imagine being 5 6 and 118. Sounds sickly/ |
