| The last few years I have allowed 15 lbs to creep up on me. When I need to lose weight, I usually turn to Nutrisystem. It has been very successful for me. I love the very structured aspect to their plan and I love the routine of it all. I’m looking to replicate that with regular food. |
| I drink a skinny latte every single morning. It satiates me until lunch. I eat cubed Boars head ham and a few chunks of cheese for lunch with a little mayo. I eat a kind bar every afternoon. I eat a huge salad with meat, cheese, nuts, lettuce, mushrooms, tomatoes and dressing for dinner until I hit goal weight |
|
Three eggs with tomato, onions and jalapenos for breakfast.
Salad with kale, cucumber, tomato, avocado and vinegar/oil for lunch. Dinner is either turkey chili, homemade tomato soup with turkey, squash, carrots and celery in it, or a tuna melt (yogurt instead of mayo) with an apple or grapes. I lift three days a week and run three days a week as well. |
|
Breakfast: crust less frittata (loaded with veggies), black coffee
Lunch: roasted veggies on spring mix with 4oz grilled chicken Snack: cucumbers, couple of baby carrots, and a 100 calorie tub of guacamole Dinner: steamed broccoli, small side salad, baked salmon |
|
Breakfast: coffee w/ff creamer and Trader Joe’s oatmeal
Snack: smoothie Lunch/dinner: sweet green , no bread |
|
I measure out my food. It’s so easy for portion size to get grow with time.
I also stock up on teas. Whenever I feel like eating but I’m not actually hungry, I make some tea. |
| I follow bright line eating. There are charts of the quantities and example menus if you google. |
|
Egg McMuffin for breakfast
Chipotle burrito for lunch Applebee’s apps and robs for dinner all of the above is on the reg. |
What amounts do you measure out, could you provide examples? |
|
Coffee with skim milk for breakfast
Plain 2% Greek yogurt with berries for lunch 25 frosted mini wheats with skim milk for mid day snack Dinner is chicken or fish, roasted vegetables and a small amount of carbs that I rotate (bread, rice, potatoes) Dessert is a Yasso bar |
+1 on the cereal. I like it better than oatmeal, so I choose something with similar nutrition and fiber. I just like crunch and cold milk too. Every AM and sometimes for dinner |
|
Coffee w/cream in the morning before my workout.
I don't eat until 10:30-11am. That's usually lowfat PLAIN yogurt with fresh fruit and nuts Lunch - eggs or salad. I eat as much protein as possible. snack - protein bar. and yes I know it's a glorified candy bar dinner - salad I drink only water throughout the day, with exception of my morning coffee. |
| Measuring has been the key for me. Knowing exactly the weights has made logging much easier and reducing. I use grams over ounces for even more accuracy. |
So the food poisoning keeps you trim? |
| I eat whatever I want but measure it. Whole grain pasta is a staple. |
