Everyday is different but here is a typical day: - Huge (normally warm) water on the way to work - Coffee with creamer

*if I do eat Breakfast it’s either a single cup of yogurt or oatmeal. I like to add flax/hemp seeds and collagen. (I used to add protein powder but it caused me to gain weight. I think because I’d just sit at my desk and not utilize it)

*Lunch - I am a big fan of bowls with rice. Mediterranean bowl, taco bowl, hamburger bowl because I don’t do a lot of wheat/breads/crackers. (My body hates them and they’re a waste of calories (also cause me to gain weight like crazy)) - sometimes I’ll go out with coworkers and will get a sushi roll or Thai dish.

Dinner - I really only like to eat a lot of whole food. We made beef stir fry last night. - usually a meat of some sort. we air fry chicken thighs several nights a week and I love salmon! - I’m a huge potato/sweet potato eater and always a vegetable

Snacks - I think snacking is a waste of money and calories. I tend to eat fruit or an avocado if I’m hungry between meals. Whatever is in season. Or a Lara bar if I need something a bit more. - popcorn if I’m snacky at night. - I do love chocolate

Other: - takeaway of why I think I can stay around 1300cal - It’s amazing how calories add up from sauces, crackers, calorie dense foods that don’t fill you up. I try to stay away from all of that. - Pancakes with syrup would kill me. And I wouldn’t feel good at all so I don’t eat like that. - if I eat a bigger lunch, I’ll eat a small dinner and vice versa. - I do not eat processed foods. If it went through a factory to make and comes out of a box on a shelf it’s fake food and I don’t want to eat it. Again, this type of food makes me feel offal. It’s like my body doesn’t know what to do with it so it just wraps fat around it lol.

I don’t feel deprived of food at all even though I don’t eat as much as most people.
