I need help cutting calories from my diet, but still making sure it keeps me full! My problem is that when I eat breakfast at 7 AM on work days, I am so hungry that I end up eating a second breakfast at 10 AM, plus lunch, supper and an evening snack (usually after my workout). Daily plate has me at 1450 calories a day.
Please help me fill up my tummy!
Normal day:
7 AM- Breakfast- high fiber cereal with skim milk (160 + 80 cal)
10 AM- Snack- oatmeal packet and piece of fruit (130 + 60 cal)
12 or 1: Lunch- something homemade like soup or healthy stew (veg, protein and carbs), plus a granola bar and carrot sticks (200-300 depending on the day, 160 + 30)
5 PM Supper: Something homemade or a sandwich, about 300-400 calories
7 PM Snack: smoothie or bowl of cereal (200-300 cal)
PLUS I will generally have a couple timbits or a couple squares of dark chocolate a day (around 100 cal)
Total: around 1600
Help me out ladies! I'm really not losing weight eating this much so I need to drop down. I would like to add more protein to the morning (like a hardboiled egg for breakfast) but I still don't think that could take me to lunch without a snack.
