Also...eat your veggies!!! Seriously, I always eat my veggies first, they're a bit more filling, that way when there's food left on the plate it's the higher cal carby type foods.~ugly girl with a beautiful heart~https://www.blogger.com/profile/15440157321089219158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020929412717068089.post-25493356146765841312009-12-17T14:32:28.609-08:002009-12-17T14:32:28.609-08:00Dude! You need to figure out what you are going to...Dude! You need to figure out what you are going to eat! Can I also chime in and say DO NOT eat just one meal a day? Your metabolism will slow right down and your body will start to try to conserve whatever fat it gets. Not creating an efficient machine, to say the least. <br /><br />Breakfast is so important- something filling is best. I eat Kashi Go Lean Crunch cereal. It's yummy and has lots of whole grains, fiber and even some protein. Oatmeal is another great choice. Jazz either up with berries. Mmm! <br /><br />Even if you just eat your three meals, watching your portion sizes, of course, you will be so much better off. Keep snacks to healthy foods- fruit, veggies, almonds (go easy, they are high cal!). <br /><br />Maybe go shopping and load up with fruit and vegetables and whole grain bread, some low-fat yogurt, lean beef, chicken, turkey. You can buy the pre-cut pre-washed salads and frozen veggies if you are worried about prep time. Choose a nice, low-fat vinaigrette for dressing. Don't buy the junk you binge on. Ban cookies, cake and chips from your house! Don't buy ice-cream! If it's not in your house, you can't eat it.<br /><br />Read the labels on the canned goods you buy. Look at calories per serving, and what a serving ACTUALLY IS. Look at the amount of sodium and fat. 2% fat is ideal, but hard to find. Beware the lure of the 100 calorie packs. They are still cookies and chips, and you could still eat 6 bags of them. Best to avoid 'em. <br /><br />Switch to at LEAST 1% milk- saves a lot of calories and tastes pretty much the same as regular. Light, low-fat cheeses are out there too! Buy 'em but try to limit portions. <br /><br />If you insist on peanut butter or mayo- find low fat versions and GO EASY. 1 or 2 tablespoons tops. <br /><br />Don't drink pop or juice. Both have TONS of sugar and calories you don't need. Drink lots of WATER- try for that 8 glasses a day. Diet sodas are better than regular, but still not ideal. <br /><br />If you choose to bring only healthy low-fat foods into your house, that is what you will eat! <br /><br />Good luck, Eric. I hope you can figure out an eating plan soon.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13207319340618952308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020929412717068089.post-29260161978423374922009-12-17T03:43:05.933-08:002009-12-17T03:43:05.933-08:00Seriously, you need to eat six small meals a day, ...Seriously, you need to eat six small meals a day, combining protein, carb and fat. Eating once a day or not at all is not going to help you lose weight and if you lose any weight it's not going to help you keep it off. <br /><br />A plate of food should have about 50% vegetables, 25% protein and 25% grain.Everyday Superherohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01770767316431629647noreply@blogger.com
