Yo Teach man I have lost 20 pounds in the last month, went to see a nutritionist and she told me to eat 3-5 protiens a day and make one of the some kind or a mixture of nuts, 7-9 veggies and fruits aday, 3 dairy a day and they can be milk, cheese or some kind of dairy(my favorite is Wendy's small Frosty!!!), 3-4 whole grains a day and drink at leaste 32 onces of water a day!!! I have cut out almost all my sugar and starch intake, I do not diet!!!! If I am hungry for something I just eat a sencable size helping of it, she did remind me that a serving of most things in a half of a cup and meats are about the size of your palm! Juices with our sugar or corn syrup are good but a 1/2 a cup is a serving and V-8 juice is an excellent way to get some of your veggies in a day!!! I have a 1 cup of v8 and a 1 cup of Orange juice mixed together with a two egg omlet with fat free ham slice and light slice of cheese in it almost every mornig and two big glasses of water with my meds and on my way to work, pack my lunch box with a banana, apple, granola bar, one meat and one veggie and usually a cup of peaches in light syrup along with a snack bag of mixed nuts and three bottles(10 0z.) of Crystal light lemonaid for two snacks and a lunch. Nutritionist told me to eat something healthy every 2-3 hours so I do not get hungry and I try to drink three or four big glasses of water at work (yeah I go pee a lot but hey it is working!!!) I have a light snack after work and a light supper and more water, been eating an orange or some watermelon about an hour before bed and I don't wake up starving at night.
This has worked for me and I do not get hungry, if I crave something I am sencable about it and I stop eating when I am full and don't over eat. Been losing about five pounds a week like this now and I love it, OH Yeah and CHICKEN is good for you too!!! Have a blessed day!!!! It's my bed time yall!!! Lynn
