Hi everyone!

I'm really confused about what to eat and could use some suggestions! I'm working full-time and also trying to lose weight. Currently, I'm aiming for around 1,000–1,200 calories a day.

For lunch, I usually have 6 eggs (2 whole eggs and 4 egg whites), mixed with some onions and tomatoes, cooked without oil. I eat this with around 90g of chapati. For dinner, I usually have air-fried chicken breast with some vegetables, again without oil.

The problem is that I'm getting really tired of eating the same meals every day. I want to try something new that's tasty, filling, and low in calories. For exercise, I walk around 8 km every day and do 40 minutes of weight training.

What do you guys usually eat when you're on a serious calorie deficit? I'd love some meal ideas that are low in calories but still satisfying!

Hi, I am a 17(f), and I have been recently diagnosed with h pylori, and I am being put on a lot of medicine and vitamins. The doctor has given me a list of things I can't eat, but with balancing high school, college, and my outside life, it's hard to find easy, protein filled, and on the go meals. If anyone has any suggestions and would like to see the list of things I can and can't eat pls comment it would mean a lot!! EDIT: I'm looking for ways to be simple and CHEAP, I mainly can't make a good meal come together even with all of the things in front of me, my household is a junk food household so everything i cant eat we have and everything i can we dont have, plus since i have an after school job this will be coming out of my pocket so thats why i need it to be long lasting and on the cheaper side😵‍💫

THINGS I CANT EAT: Soda, sweet tea, energy drinks, fruit juice, candy, cookies, cakes/pastries, donuts, sweetened cereals, syrups, honey, coffee, sweetened yogurt, artificially sweetened highly processed foods, refined white flower snacks, ultra processed foods, alcohol, spicy foods, hot peppers, fried foods, heavy/high fat meals, tomato sauce, citrus, carbonated drinks, and high amounts of cooking oils

THINGS I CAN EAT AND SHOULD FOCUS ON EATING: Literally any vegetables (im not picky), for protein: eggs, chicken, turkey, salmon, cod or other fish, lean beef and lean pork. for carbs I can only have one serving of these: oatmeal, quinoa, brown or wild rice, white or red potato, lentils, chicken peas, and beans for fruits I need to focus on whole fruits instead of juice and for fats: ground flax seed, pumpkin seed, chip seeds, pecans, almond, walnuts, and avocado

Hello! A little background I have been slowly losing weight for years. I started at 340lbs and I'm down to 240. I did this by changing my eating habits, playing Beat Saber (it's good cardio!) and working a job where I walk for about 8 hours a shift. It's taken me 6 years to get here but it was well worth it!

Currently though I've been having issues with my gallbladder. I've already seen my doctor, gotten blood tests, and will likely have it removed in the future. But for now I've been told to cut down on fats (specifically saturated fats) and up my protein intake (that was super low in my blood tests) So those are being monitored by me and my doctor. I am not cutting out all fats, I'm just choosing healthier options like avocados, extra virgin olive oil etc.

Breakfast is a protein shake, some veggies, and egg whites. Lunch is tofu, chicken, or tuna, veggies, fruit, and some sort of carb (rice, crackers, potatoes) etc. Same with dinner.

My problem now is finding portable snacks I can eat while I'm working. They told me eating smaller portions throughout the day will help with my gallbladder, but while I'm at work it's harder to eat like that. We only get 15 minute breaks and running to the lunch room to grab something takes up almost all of my time. (The place I work is huge). I used to keep nuts, jerky, or protein bars in my pockets but most of those are super high in fats which I need to watch, but also make sure I'm getting more protein.

I have been looking for options online and I have a few things but I feel like I'm overlooking some potentially good options. Currently I have some low fat chicken jerky (which quite frankly I'm not a huge fan of), Nut-Thins Crackers, and dried fruit.

Does anyone have any suggestions or recipes?

Tips to complete daily protein intake or protien rich recipes

I'm looking to make a protein shake that captures the authentic taste of an Apple Pie. I've already succeeded in making a strawberry shortcake shake with no added sugar, and no unhealthy fats (e.g., heavy cream, cream cheese, creme fraiche).

So, lay them on me!

I work in the oil feild and im trying to loose 20 more pounds. They have camp food but usually its coated in butter, grease, oil, and does not taste the best.

They have a line where its veggies, fruits(usually melon) hard boiled eggs, chicken, cheese, leaves, dressings, cottage cheese, and yogurt(Greek yogurt, sometimes plain usually flavored tho), and rice cakes/bananas.

There is only salt and pepper for seasoning.

Given that, is there any combos or food ideas I can mix to make better tasting more palatable foods. I usually just have grilled chicken and mustard but I cant stomach that anymore.

Some days I get home from a workout and I have maybe ten minutes of energy left. What do you make on those nights? Recipes welcome, even if it’s barely cooking.

Guys. I am 90 kgs. Six months ago started doing pushups could do on 2-3. Now i am doing 14. Pushups hugh achievement for me.though i havent lost any weight cause i really dont have any nutrition knowledge. I just ate what was cooked. I know protein is a requirement.

But currently i am looking for someone to please give me some tips on how to make healthier foods which are fast to make some breakfast options or lunch or dinner . I havent cared for my diet its just i walk like 3500 steps a day and do 14 pushups being 2 sets of 7.

Could you tell me your personal favourite meal which you like to make. If you even share a few youtube videos recipes you have tried in past with good macros that would really help. Thankyou.

Hubby eats approx 240g protein per day, mostly chicken breast, sometimes ground beef.
He has lost 100lb, has 100 more to go and I am determined to help him get there BUT I have reached my creative limit on making chicken and ground beef taste good.
Send me your go to recipes/marinades/seasonings. Sides not necessary, low cal, low fat, low carb focused. Side note: he doesn’t like curries, eggs, fruit.
