What healthy or low cal food have you grown to like?
Love bleu chese, like ranch and surprizing since I couldnt stomach 'the taste' before. Still dont do clear like italian, reg or diet.
Apples.
They were diet food that on a diet, I still didnt want. I did not appreciate how sweet they are!
Eggs whites.
While I wont be making an egg white omelette anytime soon adding an extra whites to 2reg scrambled at first tasted too much like eggwhites but I like it that way.
Beans.
Turns out they dont need brown sugar - theyre just good.
Tofu! My sister had a flirtation with veganism years ago, back when I was in high school and cooked for the family. After much resistance, I developed a love for tofu. I try not to eat it more than a couple times a week (processed food, too much soy, etc) but I do love it now.
Whole wheat pasta is another good one. I didn't like the idea of switching, but now I prefer it to regular pasta. It has a better texture and more flavor.
- Tofu
- Nonfat Greek Yogurt
- Plain yougurt
- Broccoli; and most other veggies
- Egg whites
- Bran muffins
- Beans of all sorts
- Oatmeal
Oatmeal- Rolled, but not instant or quick oats. So hearty and delicious in the morning. Soymilk or nuts for protein, fruit or pumpkin for the antioxidants.
Celery- I can't even remember trying celery before I started considering my weight. I totally love it.
Broccoli and cauliflower- My two most favoured vegetables in the world!
Hummus- Savoury and delicious, healthy and low fat... yum.
Hummus - such a delicious flavor and lowfat, good protein.
Flat Out Wraps - They taste really good among all their other qualities
Egg Whites - I like to make one whole egg and two egg white scrambles and they taste good, don't miss the yolk
Turkey Meatballs - Foster Farms makes a goody.
Sweet Potatoes - really yummy. I never used to eat them before. I was like "Meh, sweet potatoes" but now I savor their texture and flavor.
Captain Morgan - well its ONLY 64 calories a shot!!!!!
I like mykanosdelight's list of low cal foods! She shnitzel's friend now!
Tofu should be spelled t-o-f-eeeyu! I no lika da tofu... bleh! But that's just me. :)
I like my yolks... cuz at least I think my yolks are funny even if nobody else does.
In addition to veggie soups and salads that I previously mentioned, I'd like to add cabbage. And that's all I'm going to say about that.
I have to agree with mykanosdelight, the Captain is also my friend.
Broccoli, Laughing Cow light cheese and Egg Beaters are my new low cal foods.
Thomas light multi grain english muffins are my favorite though.
Mykanos, lonestar45, and shnitzel raise right knee in unison....
Musselmans lite Blueberry pomegranate fruit n sauce, mmmmmmm
Clemintines
Hard boiled eggs
Hummus, with celery
Progresso Light soups (120 cal per can!)
Dannon lite yogurt
Apples, and ANY raw vegies
salad spritz (brand?)
rum is up there for me too, but not spiced *makes face*
Before getting more pumpkin, I found myself liking it solo too. Ive since tried the chocolate and butterscotch. The butterscotch at first seemed to have a aftertaste but then it didnt. Im assuming its an adjustment.
I can remember prior diet days accidently getting sugar free and though I tried, couldnt eat it. Now I eat it and its funny to think what a problem I'd had.
Veggie burgers, ginger, berries, most vegetables, protein bars, protein powder, splenda, oranges...
I basically never ate anything healthy and now I love it all! lol.
all fruit
peppers cut up
egg whites
100 calorie packs
sugar free popsicles
lean cuisines/smartones
Oat bran with Splenda... sometimes I put a spoonful of smooth peanut butter in for protein - the fat in it is healthy and it makes it extra creamy.
The oat bran is only about 60 cal a serving - how could you go wrong?
So good fat free milk - packed with nutrients and stress beating B12 - it gives me a sense of well being - no kidding. Only 100 cal a glass. I am lactose intolerant though.
PC fibre first. I'll snack on a .25 cup of it with a small meal for only 25 cal and a punch of filling fiber and nutrients (instead of bread) works like a charm (drink enough water!)
anything low GI - that diet is the best in my opinion!~ :)
Is jump roping as good an exercise as running?
In terms of calorie burning, moderate jumping is about equal to running a 10-minute mile, although calorie burning is always a function of time... Read more
