Instead of "eating clean all" the time, why don't you try a program called IIFYM/flexible dieting? People who follow this program calculate their daily macros (protein, carbs, fat grams) and then eat to fill those up, no more, no less. I've been on IIFYM for a while now and at the end of the day I can have a Poptart or a…

I love my BSN Syntha 6 Cookies & Cream. It's a little high in carbs but it taste wayyy better than my Ronnie Coleman Almond Whey Isolate (I can barely get it down without gagging).

WOAH. How did you calculate your macros because your calories are WAYYYY to low (should be around 1700~1800). Try using the IIFYM calculator to get your macros, that one is very accurate.

try buying the fiber one 90 calorie brownies

i was a quinoa virgin until i had taboulli/taboulleh salad for the first time. it got me completely hooked on it and it's become a staple in my diet ever since!

I try not to. I usually try to schedule my gym time around my social time and not let it control my life. For example, if I know I'm going to be catching a late movie with friends, I'll get up early in the morning to work out. This way I always have to know beforehand so I'm a little less spontaneous than I used to be, but…

You can as long as you stay within your macros (protein, fat, carbs)

nuts! i don't know why! and they are so damn high in fat!

100 g baked tilapia, 100 g brown rice, 100 g steamed veggies

If you're looking for a lifting program, you should check out LDNM's 3-day a week program for women.

stare at myself in the mirror!

It's different with everybody. Some do carb cycling (low and high carb days) and swear by that. I mean, there are so many different kinds of diets out there. I would just go with the carb intake MFP gives you, 20 grams sound a bit on the low side.

Check out LDNM's program for beginners and branch out once you get more comfortable. The program is spread out into three days (every week). I bike or spin every day of the week except two so I do 1.5 days of the program at once.

Baked tilapia! Just wash and put them on a baking pan. Sprinkle any spice of your choice (I usually go with oregano, and garlic pepper), squeeze on some lemon, and pop them into the oven for about 20 minutes. It taste amazing and is super filling. I usually eat my tilapia with mini egg white quiches and a side of veggies.…

Baked tilapia. Literally takes me less than five minutes to make. Just wash them, put them on a pan, sprinkle some pepper, squeeze some lemon and then pop them in the oven for about 20 minutes. It tastes great and its super filling! (I usually eat mine with a side of veggies)

bring a poptart or a blueberry bagel or something. I have one almost everyday...as long as it fits my macros!

Plan ahead (a day ahead). That is the only thing that works for me. When I don't, I can end up eating 3k calories. I have my computer open during dinner everyday and plan out my meals for tmrw.

Buy chicken breast, tilapia, frozen veggies, sweet potatoes, etc... and buy a lot when they are on sale

Learn to substitute carb-y ingredients for non carb-y ones. Snacks Suggestions: 1. Egg White Quiche (super easy to make and super low in calories. the ones I make are only 33 calories per quiche. just google it) 2. Dark chocolate 3. Fruits that are low in carbs

I like to start my day off light with a smoothie. I have three favorites 1. Spinach + Hershey's Unsweetened Cocoa Powder + Almond Milk 2. Pomegranate seeds + Greek Yogurt + Almond Milk 3. Banana + Black coffee + Almond Milk Then I usually have a midmorning snack of two pieces of dark chocolate For lunch I have some kind of…

Keep food out of sight! It's the only thing that works for me. I used to work on the dining table and found that working on the couch makes me think of food less. Especialy because I'm also farther away from the kitchen (no smells)
-
I weigh out my food so that I'm more accurate in my MFP diary entries.
-
do baked tilapia (100g = 144 calories) with a side of steamed veggies (100 g of most veggies amounts to about only 34 calories)

oily carby things nuts dairy products

Try planning ahead of time. It works for me. I have the same problem as you, and even with planning, I fall off the wagon too sometimes. When that happens, I just tell myself that everyday is a new day and just start over again. I'm serious about the planning a day before though. Before I go to sleep or when I'm eating…

almond milk all the way!

Yes! I can't live without my scale! Without it, I wouldn't know how much I was eating (wouldn't know what to put into my MFP diary)
