[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I eat leftovers. If I’m on public transportation I eat once at office. If driving either at counter while making kid lunches or sit down for 5-10 and nosh.

The increased activity is a larger part of this than breakfast. Especially a zbar [/quote]

While I appreciate your feedback, I can report that changing my breakfast habits is what prompted the quick weight loss. I’ve been walking everyday for the last few months without any noticeable difference. I’ve always eaten relatively healthy for lunch and dinner, but breakfast has usually been a drive thru since I love my morning coffee.

Now that I’ve jump started the weight loss, I’m focusing on improving my eating habits overall. I’m eating dinner before/by 6pm. I’ve never been a big snacker, but I typically indulge in small pieces of dark chocolate (albeit eating a handful of small pieces). I’ve eliminated that for now in an effort to cut back on sugar and I must say I feel better.

The ZBars are really low in calories—particularly when compared to what I was eating before. I realize it’s not a truly healthy option (my friend jokes that the cardboard packaging such shelf-stable items come in have more nutritional  value than the faux food), so I’m looking to make a change.

I already eat a lot of eggs. Interestingly, there was a book called The Cinch Diet a while back that focused on jump starting weight loss with a week of only eggs, nonfat Greek yogurt, almonds, spinach, and raspberries if I recall correctly. It works, but it’s not sustainable nor is it meant to be. As the weeks go on you add more food to your diet…pretty much the Mediterranean diet.
