    fruit - raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, strawberries, kiwi. apples, grapefruit
    Veggies - romaine, spinach, red pepper, zucchini, broccoli, tomato, avocado, sweet potato, celery
    meat - boneless skinless chicken breasts; 93/7 ground turkey and turkey patties; chicken roasters
    dairy - skim milk, pepperjack, cheddar & mozz cheeses (I buy regular, and limit how much I eat; I don't like the lowfat cheeses)
    eggs
    almonds
    hummus
    jasmine rice (not good for me but I love it; I have it infrequently and limit myself to 1/2 c)
    Sam Adams Light beer. I figure it doesn't make sense to lose weight by eliminating something I know I'm going to be having after the dieting phase (beer!), so I drink this - it's good! And worth the calories to me. :)
    coffee.

    When I eat bread (rare), it's homemade. I love bread, but when I eat it, I consistently gain 3-4 lbs within 48 hours, and then lose it again after another 48 hrs (if I don't have any more bread), so I'm happier if I just don't eat it at all. Same goes for pasta,.

    always buy fiber one bars, and fiber one brownies. Gotta have yogurt, bananas lean turkey, turkey chops, whole wheat sandwich rounds, cocoa roast almonds 100 calorie pack...oh, gotta have my star bucks coffee drink. Truth be known I would drink coffee and eat chocolate all day, and never eat anything else. I know that's not healthy so I don't do it. But just being honest here!!!!
