Give me some examples of what a day of YOUR eating would look like.
My biggest problem seems to be there's not enough variety in my diet so I lose interest in eating healthy :(
It seems like its always chicken, tuna, salad, veggies and eggs LOL
HELP!

    Feel free to look at my dairy. Being single and living alone there is a lot of repetition only because I will cook for dinner then eat that for lunch. I do eat lots of fish because I love fish. Most days I have oatmeal when I arrive at work because it is convenient. 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1 egg and 1 cup of boiling almond or hemp milk and throw it in a thermos and it's done when I get to work. Add some berries and your good to go.

    Breakfast: (1 protein and 1 other) hard boiled eggs, aria women's protein powder, veggie sausage patties, 1/2 serving of various cereals (kashi go lean crunch), 1 serving old fashioned oatmeal, 1 mini bagel (100 cal) with cream cheese

    Lunch: I am at work and I have to eat fast so it is either leftovers from dinner or a frozen lunch (Amy's, healthy choice or lean cuisine) with added fruit and veggies (baby carrots, spinach..) or soup

    Dinner: is where I get my variety, pretty much whatever in smaller portions..

    75% of the time I have "cold" cereal (not oatmeal or farina but like Kix or lucky charms) for breakfast. I have eggs for lunch 75 to 85% of the time and I'll eat anything from pizza to breakfast foods for dinner. Nothing is off limits for that meal of the day! My snacks include Wasa crackers, cheese, cookies, and more cereal. I eat a lot of the same things but I'm never bored. I'm always under my 1500 calorie limit too! :-)

    Protein: veggie "meat," like ground "beef" crumbles, soy bacon, veggie burgers (Especially Morningstar Farms brand); beans, fat free cottage cheese

    If you are getting in a rut with veggies, try something new. Eggplant, winter squash, zucchini, portabello mushrooms. Anyone would get bored of salad mix, baby carrots, tomatoes (or whatever it is you usually get).

    It is cheaper and more sustainable to buy produce that is in season, so that is a good way you can shake up your normal meals.

    GL!
