    I always, always, ALWAYS keep fresh veggies cut to snack size on hand. My favorites are celery, carrots, broccoli, zucchini, and yellow squash. I use hummus or salad dressing as a dip. Over the next week or two I plan to do some cheese experiments, because the broccoli doesn't hold the hummus very well, and I want to see if I can't manage a low-calorie cheese dip that doesn't need to be heated to stay gooey.

    Have you tried the new Chobani dips that came out a few months ago? Broccoli seems to hold those pretty well, from my experience, and they're only about 25 calories for 28g of dip.

    Sorry I forgot to mention my stats. My current weight is 76kg (150lbs).My option was half a kilogram a week (approximately 1lbs) sendentary. I'm 167cm (that's 5ft 5"). 28 y.o asian dude.

    okay so why are you trying to lose weight??? you are at a healthy weight for your height...

    I mean really??? I am 5 ft 7 and weigh 155lbs..and still eat 1600 and lose weight...

    Yes, I'm trying to lose weight. I gained 20lbs in one and a half years, and all my clothes don't fit anymore. Had to make new suits, waistline increased a lot, my shirts look like tight spandex, and I can't tie my shoelaces without struggle.

    And your stats inspired me. We are about the same hight-to-weight ratio, and your daily goal is 1600 Cal, that’s only 50 Cal difference. How long have you been dieting? I'd like to hear more from your experience, like what kind of exercise you do, etc. Thanks.

    @christiananggoro I am not really "dieting" now...but when I was 1600 was what I ate...

    I prelogged for the week ensuring I hit my macros (esp protein) then I did some cardio and lifted heavy weights...

    if I eat 1600 now I would lose 1lb a week give or take depending on my activity.

    My suggestion is start lifting some weights...eat some food and make sure you get in lots of fats and protein to help you feel fuller longer...
