i watch what I eat pretty closely. more so to avoid awful ingredients and preservatives, unhealthy fats, etc as opposed to calories. but I honestly do not work out at all. I could probably have a much better body if I would just commit to a solid workout routine
regardless, I generally stay away from empty carbohydrates, but I do eat brown rice and quinoa. Sweet potatoes are a good source of healthy carbs as well since they contain good sugars and are super filling. I gave up bread for a while but I've recently started incorporating sprouted grain toast into my breakfast. I'm gonna see if that makes much of a difference in my satiety throughout the morning. but if not I'll probably just cut it out again
I eat eggs pretty much everyday, boiled or scrambled in a tiny bit of olive oil. the most important thing that I've learned throughout cleaning up my diet is that fats don't necessarily make you fat. A good amount of the RIGHT kind of fats are vital and can actually help you lose weight and stay slim in the long run. For example, I'll have a couple egg whites but keep at least one or two of the yolks. Pure organic peanut butter is great and tastes just as good if not better than the Peter Pan and Jif brands. I eat avocado a couple times during the week and I make sure I get in a lot of protein everyday. the best and cleanest sources for me are chicken breast, salmon, ground turkey breast and grass-fed beef
also, I know that there may be some kind of gross stigma around protein shakes and meal replacements, but pic related is honestly amazing and I think that everyone in this thread could benefit from using it. it's completely plant based, vegan, non-gmo, provides you 40 grams of protein per two scoops and contains so many detrimental vitamins, minerals and probiotics that I know a lot of us who are cutting and fasting aren't getting nearly enough of. the nutrition facts are really impressive
