Ok futuremrsmultari just gave me a great idea. Since alot of people are trying to get in shape at the moment thought i'd do this. Didn't want to put it in the other thread since we'll be posting there alot about workouts and it will be easier to look up ideas for healthy food in a different thread. I know one problem is alot of people say they run out of ideas or don't know what healthy food they can eat and actually like, so lets all exchange ideas.
Also snacks and all that of course.
My first tip is eating oranges as a snack, it fills you up and holds you over until your next meal.
Lots of tuna, but i use mustard instead of mayo.
Eggwhites alone or eggwhites, turkey bacon, low fat swiss on a whole wheat wrap or i have that on whole wheat bread
Chicken fajitas on whole wheat pita bread, grilled chicken, green peppers, red onions, squeeze some lemon juice
Cook with just EVOO...and to add flavor i always add lemons and pepper, alot of times add red onions and green peppers and cant forget garlic...with these ingredients i add flavor to otherwise bland food and helps out.
Futuremrsmultari-i was gonna post your recipe but thought i'd let you post it yourself since it is yours lol

You've been doing great, you got down alot...just change up the exercises bc after a while your body gets too used to them

Re: healthy food and recipes
I replace bread with whole wheat 40 calories per slice bread. You can only find it in major supermarkets. It's also good to snack on part-skim mozzarella string cheese. I also drink soy milk instead of regular milk. It tastes better then skim milk. I only eat whole grain cereal and I have replaced juice with Arizona green tea. I also eat light yogurt.
Added some more.

Re: healthy food and recipes
I also bought frozen fruits from Target so I can make smoothies. If you add some protein, it can replace a meal.

Re: healthy food and recipes
I also suggest the 'Entree Salads' by Hillshire Farm. It's a container that comes with smoked turkey breast, smoked ham, cheese, croutons,and dressing all you have to do is add the lettuce. It's great to take to work or school for lunch. I also suggest to eat baked or grilled meat with the skin off. I have all this advice but I never follow it.
