Ideas and motivation

Living with other people when you are trying to lose weight has challenges.

Empty out a cabinet and give it exclusively to your boyfriend to store his foods that he wants and you don't. You are the one losing weight and you each need to accommodate as much as possible. It's his home too.

Along those same lines, try to cut down on talking about calories. That gets old for people not losing weight.

I do well with food during the day time it is night time and weekends I struggle the most with. For breakfast at work I really like eggs. You can bring them in a container just crack them and microwave. For an "egg mcmuffin" style use one egg and heat for 30 sec then 10 sec increments watch as they like to explode if over heated then just scoop out and place on a whole wheat english muffin or for an egg wrap I break one and stir well with a fork the microwave 20 sec stir and continue 10 sec at a time maybe add a tiny bit of cheese just to give it something, I like to heat my wrap for like 10 sec to make it softer but just place your scrambled eggs in the wrap and away you go. Another option is cream of wheat or oatmeal. For lunch soup and salad or veggies and a tiny bit of dip are my go to's, and I am a snacker so I will bring things like hard boiled eggs, cheese, yogurt, apple sauce, fruit I like variety so I always pack way more then I eat but I like to have choice plus then I can user whatever is left for my lunch the next day!!
