Yes, I understand we can eat anything in moderation and still lose, the point was to gain new recipes...
You know there's a whole section of the message boards for recipes, right?0 -
My go-to breakfasts:
- 2 pieces of light rye bread with cream cheese (topped with tomato, peppers, and onions) and 2 poached eggs
- breakfast shake (almond milk, vanilla whey, banana, matcha powder) and a piece of light rye toast with peanut butter
- instant oats with honey, walnuts, cinnamon, and chopped apple
- a piece of light rye toast topped with butter, tomato slices, red onion, and an over-easy egg (with fruit on the side)
My go-to lunches:
- spinach salad with cucumbers, onion, red pepper, feta cheese, turkey breast and poppyseed dressing
- A sandwich on light rye with mayo, mustard, turkey, cheddar, spinach, onion, and tomato (side of bell pepper strips)
- a bowl of quinoa with ANY vegetables, cheese, and lunch meat chopped up into it
- Tuna salad (flaked light tuna, mayo, green onion, salt, pepper, hot sauce) wrapped up in butter lettuce leaves, and an apple
- Egg salad sandwich (egg, mayo, salt, pepper, green onion, hot sauce) on light rye, with carrot sticks and tzatziki
- Pita bread with hummus, and an apple with peanut butter
My go-to dinner formula:
ANY vegetable tossed with oil and spices and roasted + ANY meat seasoned and pan fried in coconut oil + Any grain or starch
(One of my favourite dinners is roasted cauliflower with smoked paprika, pan fried red snapper, and quinoa with feta.)
I hope this gave you some ideas! Friend me if you'd like to see my food diary. ^_^0 -
I cannot eat a lot of sweets or salty snacks. I find my homemade chili made with lean beef and also chicken breast is my way to kick start a few pounds off. --and lots of fruit and veggies.0

You don't mean quinoa or oats, do you? You want to hear that we eat cake and cookies and such and still lose weight, right?
It's all a balance. Low fat dairy and proteins and of of course fiber. There's room for a little treat but not a LOT of treats.
Do people read the post?? Once again...looking for new healthy recipes. I am highly aware you can eat anything in moderation adn still lose weight and believe me, I have my favorite "treats" and cakes and cookies already. I am looking for RECIPES0 -
