    I don't see beans on there. Fiber, carbs, and a bit of protein ♥

    I always have Jollytime 94% fat free microwave popcorn on my list! It's my daily dose of fiber and salty snack. I bet I eat it 5-6 days a week at night.

    I am a big Trader Joe fan too. They have some great prices and prepared salads, organic stuff, ect. that are great. Beans - black are the best for you. Skinny girl also has some great popcorn you can find at Walmart - the new blend of lime and salt or something. Any light popcorn is good fiber for you.

    Almond Milk and/or 1% Milk
    Eggs
    Boneless, skinless chicken breast
    Fish
    Turkey and Ham for lunches
    Whole Wheat bread
    Vegetable Soup
    Green beans
    Peas
    Corn
    Salads
    Italian dressing is best for dieting (I've read at least)
    Tomatoes
    Potatoes
    Avocado
    Carrots
    Peanut Butter
    Corn Flakes, Fiber One cereal and some others
    Oatmeal
    Almonds
    Protein powder
    Greek Yogurt
    Strawberries
    Apples
    Oranges
    Bananas
    Grapes
    Blueberries

    That's what I can think of right now. Any other suggestions? I have a belly pooch and fat on my hips/lower back that i'm trying to slim down and tighten the muscles. I know you can't target fat loss, you just have to eat clean and exercise. I just downloaded this app today to help and have only started my dieting and exercising about a week ago.
    I do a lot of cardio and like no strength building other than ab conditioning since I have no equipment.
    I mostly jog on a treadmill at 4.5mph for 40 minutes, walk my pup, and ride my bike on a hilly park trail. I also take B12 vitamin gummies daily.

    Back story, I was dealing with really heavy depression from December until March. I lost 15lbs without really noticing. I was 100lbs by the beginning of March. I started taking a prescription for help and gained the weight back very quickly and with unhealthy food. I'm at 112lbs right now which is a good weight for my height (5'4), but I feel it's mostly fat and I would like to make it muscle. I'm "skinny fat" as some people might say. I will take any advice or suggestions! I've been very committed (I know is only been a week haha) and I would like to see my muscle instead of the layer of fat above it.
