What’s this week’s diet tips question? Let’s dive straight in…
Question: I’m 5′ and weigh around 115, but i want to lose 15-20 pounds. Would the following menu be good to follow?
Breakfast: 2 eggs, or egg whites (would whole wheat toast be a smart add-on or a poor decision? sometimes if i dont get carbs in the morning, i don’t feel as satisfied)
Lunch: Salad or protein shake (can anyone reccommend some yummy ones?)
Dinner: Salad, with either grilled chicken, or avocado, or beans, or similar stuff.
I go to the gym around 5 days out of the week, so would this be good to power me up for my workouts, but still allow me to lose weight? Would having fruit smoothies (just fruit in a blender with ice) for breakfast sometimes be too much sugar?
Any additional tips?? sorry this was long, i just wanna find out what will work best
Just so everyone knows, i wanna lose this weight to get the blubber off my thighs and stomach area, not to go crazy with my weight and be super skinny

Answer: Breakfast- eat 1 egg with yolk at least once a week. Egg whites, heck i eat them 2x a day sometimes. It’s okay to have toast in the morning. I do. Add fruit and some water and you’ll be good to go.
Lunch- Protien shakes? ehh I sometimes use half a bannana, ice, honey, and peanut butter. I recommend a salad and add protiens like turkey or grilled chicken with lots of veggies and no dressing.
Dinner- thats fine, add some veggies maybe?
Add snacks too! eat granola bars, or rice cakes and salsa for a filling treat. Rice cakes are 35 calories a cake and top it with salsa and eat away!
