    You need to work out a plan involving foods you like - there's no point asking for help then stating there's foods you don't like, and you don't want to waste money on, without giving specifics.

    You need to eat foods you enjoy, in a deficit, whilst making your choices nutrient dense most of the time. Eat as many meals as you feel comfortable doing, at times that suit you. Use protein powder if you feel the need to increase protein consumption but can't get it through food.... Protein powder isn't magic, and won't help you lose weight.

    You will have more success finding snacks you like. Some of my favorites are string cheese- with 5 almonds. Apple wedges with tablespoon peanut butter. Yassoo frozen yogurt bars. lunch meat turkey with tablespoon cream cheese. beef jerkey- not good if you have to watch your sodium levels- but, good for tasty protein. hard boiled egg with 1/2 tablespoon thai peanut sauce. I am always low on protein so, that is why I try to eat more in my snacks.

    what do you like? Or hate? You need to be more specific.

    Some veggies that i like are sweet bell peppers, brocoli, asparagus, cucumbers, celery.

    My favorite meats are chicken breasts and bison.

    Chances are we have different tastes, but hopefully this helps.
