I follow the seven word diet. "Eat food, not too much, mostly plants". It has been the key to my success. It took me awhile, but I finally realized that "diets" don't work. Only a healthy lifstyle is going to keep the weight off for good. I created all my meals to be perfectly balanced and extremely healthy. I do however, allow myself a little fat and sugar to sate my appetite. I generally eat the same thing for breakfast and lunch, but mix it up for dinner. I try to eat as many foods as I can from the mayo clinic's list of super foods at least three times a week. Below is my grocery list and pics of what I eat on a weekly basis. |
