I am determined to do this for me, my children, and future grandchildren. As a single mother of four for the past 15 years, I have been restricted to inexpensive, processed, high carb foods that have helped pack on the pounds. Don't believe I eat a lot (we'll see) but choices are not the best. Tried juicing as well as fresh fruits/veggies but for a family of 5 it was just too expensive. Any suggestions for meals/snacks that are healthy and will aid in weight loss without breaking the bank. Thanks for the input.

    Some of my go-to breakfasts:
    Greek yogurt
    Mini egg frittatas
    Overnight oats
    Steel cut oats with fruit & protein powder
    Bagel thin with whipped cream cheese and lox
    Mashed avocado on toast
    Blueberry pancakes (I eat mine with Greek yogurt instead of syrup)
    Scrambled eggs & veggies
    Leftovers from yesterday
    Eggs on toast
    Fried egg on a sandwich slim with cheese
    Protein shake with fruit, yogurt, & protein powder
    Fried egg on a multigrain waffle

    My average lunch is a sandwich. I use sandwich thins/slims, pita bread, or wraps to save calories. Fillings might include any combination of: deli meat, chicken salad, egg salad, tuna, cheese, hummus, condiments, veggies, etc. And then I have baby carrots, string cheese, and an ounce of nuts. Sometimes I might add a hard boiled egg.

    Dinner for me is some kind of meat and as many veggies as I can add to my day. Stir fry, soups, taco bowls, chili, pasta. Tonight it's going to be pork w/apples and roasted Brussels sprouts.

    Snacks: string cheese, nuts, wasabi peas, fudge pops, cottage cheese, hard boiled eggs, hummus & veggies, protein bars, Greek yogurt, beef or turkey jerky, popcorn, apples & peanut butter, fruit
