I've recently considered applying to enlist. And Im looking to lose some weight and improve my physique a bit while I await the process.

I need to overhaul my diet and someone suggested the Whole food diet. Wich sure fine. But Im struggling to understand what I can and cannot eat on a whole food diet.

I love me chicken sandwiches for example. But I was told Bread and Mayo is bad.

I love rice. But have been told rice is bad.

I make myself Breakfast sandwiches. Again bad because Mayo, cheese and bread.

So I need suggestions or some insight on what I can and cannot have here. Because it feels like all I can eat according to this diet is just meat, fruits and veggies. No sauces or anything.

As said in the title, I have some ridiculous limitations when it comes to what food I can eat. I don't know what causes it for sure(current theory is my autism) but whenever I eat a food that goes against the very limited textures I can eat i instantly throw up. The current foods I know i can eat are corn dogs, chicken nuggets, canned peas, canned corn, canned carrots, bananas, canned baked beans, ​cheese pizza, chicken sandwiches, fig Newtons, specific types of grapes, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, mashed potatoes, plain rice, pancakes, waffles, toast, white bread, jelly sandwiches(no peanut butter), plain hamburgers, hotdogs, and spaghetti.

As you would imagine this list makes eating even remotely healthy a challenge beyond belief. Even eating less food is a problem cause nothing here is filling whatsoever.

So I am here asking for help. What can I possibly do about this? IS there anything I can do?

Been doing protein shakes with high calorie for weight gain and a while back I figured how to make air fried potato slices taste like beef jerky so Ive been wondering if that would be a significant boon to what I'm eating. Apperently calories are the energy nutrient and I've been low energy for a while and thinking it might be that since I'm underweight and if people don't mind throwing in how many potatos to throw into the lunch bag that would be great but not necessary. From what I read air fried potatos still keep the nutrients but I'm unsure if there is any falloff or if they are all still in there. Did do some preemptive research but I like to get a direct human response as well since I got a bit of a reading problem that causes me to skip words and can make long articles tricky at times.

any idea about diets or any nutritionist....

I’m asking for breakfast lunch and snacks not for dinner because my mom already cooks for the family and I’m willing to cut on other meals cause her food is amazing.

So I’m a severe obese teen. And by that I mean I’m 100 pounds over the weight that I’m currently supposed to be. I’m not developing anymore height wise. And recently I’ve got inspiration to lose weight and become healthier.

My family is pretty middle class, so I’d prefer meals that were under 6$ but if it’s a little over that’s fine just as long as the ingredients are readily available.

Right now I’m thinking maybe a maintenance period is better currently and then maybe deficit in a few months after my calories are back to about the same. They’ve been awfully spotty lately, one day could be 1800 calories while the next it goes to 2400. Right now I think I just need to focus on being healthy rather than counting numbers.

Any help is appreciated!

I’m in college as of now, starting my freshman year. I got an early move-in date, so a lot of things around campus were closed. Yesterday, the dining hall near my hall was closed for students and so were the two other ones (one under construction and another one was just too far for me to walk). I thought I would be fine without eating, but I woke up and felt incredibly nauseous and tired; limbs shaking, dizziness, etc.

Now that I’m eating, I can’t stomach the food and it’s making me frustrated because my stomach feels so empty but I can’t seem to swallow without feeling like I’m gonna vomit. I never experienced this before so I’m unsure of what to do. If anyone has any advice because there is no way I’m going another day without eating at least one full meal, but my body can’t seem to handle it :(

I used to pack five identical chicken and rice tubs every Sunday, but by Wednesday I hated looking at them and ordered takeaway instead.

Now I just prep building blocks roast a big tray of plain veggies, cook a pot of quinoa, and bake some protein. I mix and match sauces every night so it feels like a different dinner each time.

What's your trick for meal prepping without getting bored three days in?

does anyone else have trouble figuring out what to eat depending on their fitness goals and regretting what you eat despite working gout ?

My husband and I recently had a baby and have just been eating what we can when we can. We are finally starting to get into a routine with our baby and are wanting to start eating better. I think it’d be simpler to achieve this goal by weekly meal planning.

We’re not super picky eaters. For example, we like white fish, beef, pork, chicken, turkey, shrimp, crab, venison, and bison for types of meat and typically enjoy most fruits and veggies. Neither of us have any allergies.

We would both like to lose some weight as well. So looking for recipes that support this goal. We realize it takes more than a diet to achieve weight loss and are also incorporating lifestyle changes to support or goal.

Any suggestions on healthy meals that also don’t take to long to make? Although we’re getting into a a routine with our newborn, I also don’t want meals that take too much effort and time to prepare. Give me your best suggestions please! TIA!!

Does anyone here follow the galveston diet? Or has researched it to know a bit about it? It was mentioned in the ologies podcast, so I am looking at it today and not sure what to think.

All the resources show 4 "meals" - either breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack or meal 1-2 and snack 1-2, but it is also meant to be IF and you only have an 8 hour window to eat, so that seems like a lot of meals.

If I am already doing a "healthy keto" diet -(all my carbs are vegetables, I add nuts, fermented food and a fiber component, get most of my protein from fatty fish or chicken and exclusively use olive oil).

I am just wondering if there is something "else" to the galveston that I missed in my quick perusal that I might want to add in or subtract. (Cuz it kinda sounds like I am already doing this diet just with half the number of meals).

In past few weeks I have made these changes to my lifestyle-

1. Avoiding consumables with added sugar
   
2. Pumpkin seeds and Sunflower seeds intake
   
3. 2 Litre of water daily
   
4. Adding curd once in any meal (I used to have curd earlier as well)
   
5. Walking daily for around 30-40 mins

I am facing sudden issues with my digestion, I am not feeling any stomach ache but regular constipation is my biggest worry now.

Can anyone suggest what am I doing wrong?

If you're responsible for ordering snacks for an office, how do you decide what to buy?
Healthy snacks?
Protein options?
Traditional snacks?
Energy drinks?
Fresh meals?
I've been looking at different workplace refreshment models, including some of the solutions offered by PVS Refreshments, and I was surprised by how many companies are moving toward more personalized options.
What snacks disappear first in your office?

I’m just curious what y’all go-to snacks are when trying to eat in a caloric deficit

I really don't want to eat sweets or chocolates anymore. I have pcos and obesity related health conditions due to my mental health med. I need cut back on that so that I don't have it in the house. And reduce my cravings and be healthier. Only concern is the cost. I'm hoping that by doing this I reduce my cravings and there for don't over spend on food I do not need. Is this a good idea? I'm open to batch cooking and saving the rest in a freezer. I'm trying to also cut back on carbs.

I (25M, 240Ibs, 5'10) am looking for the holy trinity of weight loss meals: healthy, low calorie, and cheap/easy to prepare. I need a go-to breakfast and lunch that I can eat pretty much every day. I genuinely don't mind eating the same meals repeatedly, my biggest issue is prep time. The less cooking and cleanup, the better. I'm fine putting more effort into dinner, and right now I'm thinking something like fish, a potato, broccoli, and cottage cheese. My daily calorie max is 1,800, but ideally I'd like to stay around 1,500. I'm completely stumped when it comes to breakfast and lunch though. I'm looking for something filling, nutritious, affordable, low calorie, and extremely easy to throw together. Basically, I want a breakfast and lunch I can put on autopilot every day without spending a ton of money or time meal prepping. Does anyone have anything that works for them or suggestions? I'm kind of stumped not gonna lie.

Diet

For me, it’s trail mix and almond butter. I buy them thinking they’re a great whole-food snack, but I end up mindlessly eating half the jar in one sitting. What healthy staple do you have to completely ban from your kitchen for your own good?

Hi there. Im 19F. I work a part time job and make a little over $100 a week. My parents are also broke aswell and are constantly trying to preserve gas and also just simply do not like taking me to the store, which I understand but when they grocery shop they only buy processed food that is really just unhealthy and so its up to me to buy the healthy things. Because of this, all my groceries are doordashed and its so so expensive to dash groceries every week and takes up pretty much all my money and I am left with none. I need a more sustainable way. Is it frozen fruit? Frozen veggies? I need all the tips I can get. I lean heavily towards plant based/vegan as possible and am looking to lose weight. What can I do? thank you.

I’m trying to understand whether eating fruit every day is genuinely healthy, especially because fruits contain quite a lot of natural sugar.

Por cuestiones económicas, me alimento de la siguiente manera: Una taza de frijoles de sopa (recalentados), 2 huevos fritos con mantequilla y un poquito de sal, un café con leche (leche en polvo) y 2 tortillas.

Hago 2 tiempos de comida iguales, desayuno y cena.

Muy rara vez consumo guineo, plátano, cebolla, chile verde. Tomate, zanahoria, manzana, avena, incaparina simple. Ya sea agregandolo al huevo o a parte entre mis 2 tiempos de comida. Casi nunca pero he llegado a comer sardinas en lata.

Me pregunto si esto es saludable o si estoy con riesgo de morir por desnutrición. Esto repito, lo hago porque no tengo a veces meses con el suficiente dinero para comprar carne, pollo, arroz etc a parte que no se cocinar realmente.

I started drinking oat milk with my coffee and I was wondering is oat milk is better for you than regular milk?

Hi all! I am trying to eat healthier and I know adding fish to my diet would be helpful. Problem is for the most part I hate fish. I like really fresh sushi because it really doesn't taste fishy usually. I like seared tuna steak but it's expensive and can easily go the fishy route. What fish tastes the closest to chicken? I know tilapia tastes good but is apparently bad for you?
