Test, Talk to a nutrition. Advice is always nice but what works for one person may not work for you. That is what I say always. For one thing, I can not eat eggs, I get sick. Sometimes I am okay with them if they are in something like cake.. (although I have not had a cake since... the kumoricon meeting I went to.) 2, I can not have beef that often, less of it I have the happier my tummy is. It takes beef 3 days to digest, where fish and chicken only take a day. So my body likes those kinds of meats better. Where, someone else's body may not be able to brake down protein the same way a normal body can, so they need to have less of it. And others might brake it down faster then normal. Every body is different, so many different ways. So Test, any tips people give. Doctors also can be helpful, and nutritionists. Test things out to see what works best for you.
Like, the juice thing. I have to have my juice. I love OJ, and need it, but hate oranges. So 6 oz of OJ mixed with 8 oz of water is what is best for me. It is also a way to help me get the water I need. I have 4 Instant breakfasts in a day, but not full ones. I mix 16 OZ of skim milk with 2 packs of IB, then I cut it into 4 bottles. Then add about 8 oz water to each bottle. I have one at 7am, one at 10/11 am, one at 2/3 pm, and one for the last thing I eat in the day at 6/7pm. So that is 4 cups of water right there. It helps me keep full, and gives me vitamins so I only need one vitamin pill a day instead of two.
Normal breakfast at 8/9 am is wheat waffle (no syrup, yukky stuff to me and bad pure sugar stuff.) and my OJ water. At 12/1 pm I have my lunch which is normally 1 oz cucumbers, a serving of almonds, a mini wheat bagel (only 100 calls, I love the things.) sometimes plan and sometimes I add fat free cream cheese or sometimes I toast them and add smart butter (the kind with no trans. forgot the name of it... Active or something.) and then either pears, peaches, or half a banana. Then for dinner it changes. But either chicken and rice, or chicken and a potato, or Salmon and rice, or 2 servings of Oatmeal and juice (normally prunegrape 6oz mixed with 8oz water. Or crangrape, or cranapple.) The oatmeal is 4 days right now, but once I get more workouts in I will change it to only 2 times a week. I normally drink around 80 oz a water a day total. 8 to 10 cups. At the end of the day I feel full, only time I ever cheat is from wanting the taste of cheese or chocolate, never because I am hungry for it. Just depression. But my depression is a lot less since I started my diet plan. Once I lose my weight it will change a little, but not much. Will still have the instant breakfast thing. Right now I have 1400 to 1500 cals about that a day. Which is good for how little I work out. If I work out more I will add more to my diet.
this works for me, is working. It might work for you are it might not. If anyone wants an exacted measurements of the foods I can send you the chart with the cals added and proper serving sizes. It took me a long time to find out that the beef I ate was what was making me sick. Lack of beef might make others sick though so make sure if you try what I am doing to keep track of how you feel. Almonds are one thing to be carful with, some people can not handle that much nuts. So try a different protein at lunch if you feel it is making you sick.
Also, I sometimes have Benefiber. maybe 2 to 4 times a week. the orange chewables is what I like, to me they are yummy.
