I'm a vegetarian who doesn't like eating in the morning/breakfast, and who relies mostly on plain veggies. I eat big bowls/plates of food and it really fills me up, but because it's all veg, the calories are super low π

breakfast: chocolate protein shake and 2 slices of french toast
lunch: 2 eggs and vegetables (tomato, green pepper, onion)
snack: a cup of mixed berries (frozen strawberries, raspberries, currant, blackberries)
dinner: cherry tomatoes and light mozzarella with some yogurt dressing and a slice of corn bread

@PmiA I agree with @AshHeartsJesus Even though you are feeling full on 800 calories per day, doesn't mean you are getting enough nutrition to keep your body healthy. Even a vegetarian needs protein in their diet so that their body doesn't start using it's own lean muscle to meet protein needs. You should be eating a minimum of 1200 calories per day. You should be including, eggs and dairy for protein sources. You can also combine beans and rice for complete proteins.
If you continue only eating 800 calories a day, yes you will lose weight but also your health. You should consult with a registered dietitian They can help you design a healthy vegetarian diet.5 -

I agree with this 100%. I was a vegetarian for a long time and was under eating by a lot (and NOT on purpose). I started to have health issues due to under eating. Totes recommend upping your calories or consulting with a dietition for a healthy meal plan! β₯οΈβ₯οΈ5 -

Lunch: Seasoned chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, lemon cilantro hummus bowl with 1/2 of a whole wheat pita, diet Dr. Pepper
Snack: Strawberry meal bar
Snack: Small pumpkin spice latte and 1/2 pumpkin muffin from Dunkin Donuts. Surprisingly the small at Dunkin is the same as the medium at Starbucks. Wish I'd known that before drinking it all. πππ

Luckily I have 2 workouts AND an evening walk scheduled to burn off some of this!4 -
@rainingribbons
Omg..your menu sounds delishπ!!!!0 -
Thank you so much @foreverslim1111 @rainingribbons ! Today I ate to the point where it felt like overeating but ended up under the 900 mark again π And I weigh all of my food so there's no mistake there. I might have to include more high-calorie items and see how that affects my macros without freaking me out, because I'm not particularly trying to lose weight. Again, thanks for the advice! β€2

@hawksgirl229 the first challenge I did was goal weight by 4th of July, then the same poster started the Labor Day one. So I imagine there will be more after this! I like having the extra place to check in and log, itβs nice. And a long challenge is more in my comfort zone than trying to lose fast. Just my two cents.2 -
