[quote=Anonymous]Well, I don't know if I qualify as healthy, but this is what I've been doing to lose weight:

I pack an insulated bag with food to eat throughout the work day.  I don't allow myself to buy anything extra (hard, because there's a cafeteria right in the building, vending machines, and awesome restaurants just a block away).

I have oatmeal (homemade not packaged) and a fruit in the morning.  I might switch up and have an egg and cheese sandwich on whole wheat English muffin, no butter.  But I always make sure I get a fruit or veggie at each meal and snack.

I usually don't want a morning snack, but I bring yogurt for lunch and can have that early if needed.

Lunch is a lean protein (leftovers from dinner or a sandwich on whole grain bread), a fruit (I like the individual bags of sliced apples), and a chobani yogurt.

Afternoon snack is another fruit (usually a banana because I'm too lazy to actually prep something), or baby carrots and hummus or Sunbutter, and one of the following: a cheese stick/baby bell round cheese/handful of almonds or other nuts/hard boiled egg. (So one protein/fat and one fruit or veggie).

Dinner is two different vegetables and a lean protein.   No breads/starches, or at least very rarely.  We have red meat once a week.

This has been working well for me and has cut my sweet tooth cravings.  [/quote]
