I'm drinking the Garden of Life Raw Vegan protein chocolate flavored. Honestly, it is not the most delicious protein powder, but it is very nutritious and filling. I mix 1 scoop with unsweetened chocolate almond milk and a teaspoon of peanut butter. It has no sugar and more than 20 grams of protein.

I don't think eating "more" is the right answer here. I had this exact same problem, eating approx. 1100-1200 net per day. Someone suggested I cut out the sugar, which was the problem! I am extremely sensitive to sugar. I also replaced my 250 calorie egg, bacon, toast breakfast with a protein shake with almond milk and…

Thank you all so very much!!! You are the nicest most helpful bunch ever!! To answer a few questions, I'm short (about 5'2) and did 7 days of cardio only the first week and then 2-3 days of cardio the other weeks, so I'm not working out that much.

I just made my food diary open for viewing. Sorry, I'm a newbie on here. I exercised 30 minutes 5 times a week for the first week. Then, no exercise this week.

I found this article "How to Lose Weight on $10 a Week": With recipes http://quickiechick.com/2011/07/how-to-lose-weight-on-10-a-week/

60 seconds is actually enough time depending on your microwave

This is a really filling breakfast!

I like it! Going to try it :)

This is totally inexpensive too. The pepperoni comes in a big pack and the cheese lasts a long time because you only use one picece per pizza.

If you don't have a toaster oven at work, microwave will do just fine.
