I'm trying to loose around 70 overall as well!! add me if you like

Thanks!! sound like a good mix for a meal!!

Thanks, the counts sound right about where I need to be in my meals. Thanks, I will have to give this a try

Sounds, yummy too :) .. will have to try it out.. THanks!

Thanks, I think I will have to try those, only replacing 2-3 meals per week.

Thanks!! for the note! I guess I just have more learning to do, its hard to pick food that won't take you off your calorie or carb count. I am trying to see if I can include egg white/ tofu into my meals and see how that works, reduce the raw carrots, it adds a lot of carbs too.

Yes, the idea is to replace one meal (lunch with the shake). Currently I am trying fresh veggies for lunch like carrots and celery and then if I am still hungry I get myself a banana. So idea is to feel fuller with lower calories with a shake!!

that's sound like something that will work for sure.. Even if I replace my lunch of carrot and celery sticks!

Thanks, my question is also, should I buy with high protein content or low protein content, If I'm trying to loose. what should I look for while buying. I did see there were soy and whey protein shakes, but I heard, Soy protein does not provide all the nutrients and I should stick to whey. but there are soo many different…

Sounds yum.. i will on a cheat day, i am trying staying away from bread for couple of weeks..

Nice!! How long have u been on mfp or on this journey now.

Thanks will have to try, i bought cottage cheese to try, one of those single serving with fruits on the side.. didnt like it.. but will have to try another brand..

:) Nice, I guess im the same. Egg and milk but no meat. I call it eggitarian :)

Awesome, i will have to try this.. i bbrought those quinoa and spinach patties from costco, i mix em u in my salad.. but i want to make em myself as those patties contain lot of sodium..

Thanks for the tips.., that's exactly what I did for dinner, baked potato topped with boiled broccoli and light cheese with some jalapenos .. with a side small salad. Thanks,

Thanks! what's a lacto-ovel-vegetarian ? no diary and....

Step, thanks for all the wonderful ideas. I do like the Zucchini boat pizzas, i scoop out the middle, chop and mix with cheese and peppers and fill it back. I will have to try the vegetarian lasagna with zucchini :) sounds appetizing Thanks

Thanks for the tips, sound good, how do you make the falafal? fried? I've been focusing on fruits.. I think I will have to cut that back a little.

Yes, i think I was over doing on nuts, but still within recommended portion size.. i usually have salads, backed tofu or potatoe. With boiled broccoli and asparagus for dinner. My veggie intake.. Sometimes I will add in black beans and salsa. To make a taco salad ... .. Or add a veggie quinoa burger to my salad for protien…

Sounds yummy, and will take cate of my sweet tooth as well :). Thank you

Thanks, I did think of hummus, and veggies. I will try that.. since last two weeks I am trying to be off from any wheat, bread etc. .. but will slowly introduce once i loose a little and see how the weight acts. Thanks. For the great suggestions! !

I guess i know what ai was doing wrong. I thought fruit were healthier and the sugar in fruits is supposed to be calculated differently and its good. But I will stick to limited fruits and more veggies. Thanks

Thanks, I like the idea and I will try swapping the fruits with some proteins and salad. Fruits just seem like the healthier option to anything else. I try snaking on dry roasted nuts to keep me full with lots of water. Of course not a whole lot but a hand full. I like soups, i will make a bunch over the weekend. I hate…

Thanks, Awesome, I am going to try with broccoli and cheese :). and a side salad . that should be a full meal

HI Peachy, NO fish, but I do eat eggs. I buy those eggwhite containers from Costco, Maybe I will try getting the whole egg and try with egg york as well. I do like to add tofu or lentils during dinner for protein source. I though of beans and chickpea, but didn't as I thought I might consume more carbs that way. Thanks

Awesome feedback guys, really appreciate it.. I've been trying baked and roasted potatoes, with side of boiled broccoli and a asparagus. And small salad with some picked beans. As a meal.. keeps me full.. will have to try othser suggested toppings .. Being a vegetarian, thinking of adding tofu as protein substitute. . More…
