Need help with what foods to eat?

Breakfast: 2 eggs, cheese stick(in eggs), and a 100 calorie pack of nuts --> you can add fresh peppers to your eggs or whatever you like to make them more yummy

Snack: cottage cheese and an apple

Lunch: Turkey burger/tuna or chicken breast with veggies

Snack: yogurt (chobani!)

Dinner: some type of lean protein: fish/chicken/turkey then add a veggie. Can also do some brown rice and maybe some fruit.

A good quick meal is a salad with chicken breast, cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese and dressing (or whatever you like in a salad). Make sure you have a lean protein in each meal.

I hope that helps somewhat this is my typical day and what has been working for me

I eat weetbix for brekkie and a coffee
Or toast with a poached egg, or tomato and avocado

Snacks il have
Low fat Yoghurt
Sesame Crackers
Fruit
Low cal Hot Choc Drink

Lunch I usually have a 3/4 portion of dinner the previous night (I hate sandwiches that aren't made to be eaten straight away) weird i know. Or a wrap with salad and some protein or a salad with some protein

Dinner I make a normal dinner, I dont use ANYTHING from a packet and make it all myself measure amounts and calories. On days that I exercise I eat the more fattier options but use alternatives like evaporated milk instead of cream, low fat cheese etc. On non- exercise nights I dont eat carbs and have a really nice salad with some sort of protein.

Meals that I have in my recipe planner are:
Seafood Salad
Tandoori Chicken
Lamb Burgers
Pork and Mustard Sauce
Spaghetti Bolognase
Chicken Satay
Asian Chicken Salad

None of these meals take long to make 30mins for example. The key is portion sizes adding in vegies EVERYWHERE and making it yourself. Well thats for me anyway. Everyone is different.

smoothie for breakfast:
banana
greek yogurt
ground flax seed
green tea
frozen strawberries and blueberries
coffee

snack: (one or two of these)
piece of fruit
freeze dried fruit
90 calorie fiber one bar
carrots celery
skinny cow cheese
string cheese

lunch:
2 cups lettuce (at least, what ever fits in tupperware container I use)
zucchini
crook neck squash
cucumber
cherry tomatoes
red, yellow and orange bell peppers
3 oz chicken
san francisco sour dough pretzels (5)
skinny cow cheese
carrots/celery
hot freeze dried veggies (takes place of croutons) (about 1/8c)
either Ken's Steakhouse lite ceasar or Newman's light sesame and ginger

Dinner:
grilled chicken breast
whole wheat rice a roni
squash (steamed)

Indiana kettlecorn or watermelon for dinner if calories permit

This was today's meals.

I try to focus on simple, healthy eating. I try to eat breakfast within 90 mins of waking. If I am going to the gym, I may make a protein shake. Mine is a little greek yogurt, a bit of flax powder and a tbsp of almond butter. You can easily swap that for plain yogurt, flax seed powder, regular milk and peanut butter. I sometimes add a stevia packet to sweeten. On non gym days I have an egg either boiled or scrambled. I often add a bit of cheese. I find if you use shredded cheese you can still get the chessy flavor but not use as much. I eat whole eggs because they are a healthy fat. If you have a cholestrol problem the do egg whites. My trade off is I ether have grilled potatoes or bread, but never both. I prefer the potato because I get more fiber.

Lunch for me is nearly always a salad. I vary the lettuce or greens I use as well as the veg. Most days I season either with pickle juice, sesame oil, olive oil or salsa. I never buy bottled dressing because they are too high is sodium and sugar. I also often add an avocado to my salads because again, it's a healthy fat.

dinner varies, but for me is typically the most simple meal unless I go out to eat. I prefer things liked steamed brocoli, string beans or mixed veg and a grain like quinoa or cous cous.

I try to stay away from artificial foods and I don't drink soda.

My advice is thing abiyt what the foods are, and what they do to and for your body. Sometimes the calories in a particular food are not the most important thing.

Normal foods, low fat versions, smaller portions, water not snacking. Life's for living! x
