What is a good but healthy meal?

[hiyamotherfers]

I've recently wanted to lose even more weight because lets be honest who doesn't right? So I need to know some good meals that will "fill me up" but are also really good for me

[zeitgeist057]

I do 12 hour clinical shifts at the hospital. Here is an example of a healthy lunch that I pack for myself to last me through the day:

Two 28 oz drinks which I mix myself by splitting a sugar free energy drink, then adding homemade kombucha and pure unsweetened black cherry juice. This contains caffeine and almost no sugar.

A little bag, about 8 oz of a mix I make of cashews, raw almonds, dates, walnuts, and a little sugar-free chocolate (I put 1/8 of a chocolate bar in each week, and chop the chocolate up)

1-2 raw carrots

Roughly 2 cups of salad "Spring Mix", with no dressing. Just some fresh ground pepper and sometimes I add a few slices of red onion.

1-2 raw mushrooms

1 cup of cooked black beluga lentils. I season them when I cook them with red pepper flake, black pepper, parsley, garlic, and a small amount of salt.

1-1.5 cups of fresh fruit. This varies, sometimes I will buy pineapple and just cut that up and have pineapple for few days. I usually have a mix though of strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and/or blueberries. I will also sometimes have a banana.

This is more than enough food, and I often cannot eat it all even in 12-13 hours. Some other things I will add/sub if I have them: cooked chicken (about a cup), cottage cheese (about a cup), fresh raw green or French beans, raw asparagus, raw bell pepper.

As you can see, I eat a lot of raw, unseasoned, unadorned fresh veggies. I do not dip them in ranch (fat and sugar) or other dressings (fat, sugar, salt). People wonder about it, but it really tastes good if you don't use these things because your taste buds start to taste the flavors of the vegetables and fruits more.

Stuff like this has very few calories, low in fat and salt, lots of fiber and vitamins and minerals. The things I list like beans, chicken, cottage cheese, are also low in sugar and fat, and high in protein. You could eat a half a pound of "Spring Mix" and be really full, but it probably has less than 100 calories in it. All these things are really health and also low calorie but filling. Get away from breads and things made with flour, and also processed foods which have too much added sugar, salt, and fat because it's cheap filler.

I'd say proteins, preferably from meats because all the proteins that are good for the muscles are in meats, the proteins in grains aren't the same from what I heard and all the meats would get you full because it's basically like healthy fat, along with iron and other vitamins cause we all know proteins are good for the muscles, also foods with fiber fill up quick too but they send you to the bathroom and that kinda sucks no lie lol

Grilled chicken breast on top of salad.

[PointTaken]

Love that! With a little cheese.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

@PointTaken can't be a salad without the shredded cheese. Especially when it melts to the chicken.

[PointTaken]

Yes. Also at times, craisins and sunflower seeds.

[PBandJ_Nerd]

@PointTaken or pecans and apples.

[PointTaken]

Yes!

Sweetie you don't need to lose any weight. You look absolutely gorgeous just as you are.

If you want to eat healthy stay away from carbs and fats. Eat whole wheat pasta, salad, grilled chicken, fish or turkey

[hiyamotherfers]

Aww thank you

[Sparkie460]

You're welcome 😊

Honestly you could do anything you make out of raw ingredients that has protein. This was my meal a few hours ago: baked salmon, rice and poached eggs. I supplement my micros.

Hmu if u got questions

Its not about just one meal. Believe it or not its about several. Small meals. Several meals about the size of dessert cup. About 1 cup or 1 1/2 cups. Your mmetabolism will speed up. Of course exercise.

A lot of people do not want to lose weight, are under eating.

Try imaginary foods while being under hypnosis.
