ok, it is time to shake it all up a bit. since baby been born i am stuck in the ready meal trap and rarely eat fruit. so on my shopping list this week i have planned to have at least 3 proper meals. i so far have blueberrys, bananas, grapes and kiwi fruit. sweetcorn, peas, carrots, low fat yogurt, potaties, tomatoe, cucumber, ham, wholemeal bread, chicken breasts. and i hate fruit but it is time i did this. so i am looking for low calorie but high fibre foods. not just meal ideas but snack ideas too. i want to get my fibre in my diet up before i work on my protein

thanks in advamce
laura

    Kashi Go Lean cereal with the honey puffs and soy twigs in it has 10 gram fiber per serving and 140 calories in 1 cup (and only 6 grams of sugar) AND 9 gm of protein.

    And don't wait to work on protein.... hard to put muscle mass back that you lose from weight loss, try to maintain what you have - muscle burns fat!

    are you based in the USA? because i don't think we can get that here in the uk. i usually have carbs for breakfast but not enough fibre, so maybe i should add strawberrys (not in season but hey ho) and plums to my list too. i might also try alpen or something along those lines. my instant thought is yuck but needs must.. that's my excuse for everything, i don't like it! time to retry foods i don't love but don't hate either. is peanut butter high in fibre? thanks in advance
