lunch options: Premier Protein/3 oz tuna or chicken salad with 4 whole wheat crackers/non fat greek yogurt/

My meals usually average between 600-800 calories. I try to eat more on days that I work out, but I never over stuff myself. I always listen to my body and even throw away food Once I'm satisfied. You have to find out what works for you because everybody is different.

Please help- would like to know some people's daily menu.... I literally eat the same things everyday. But since hitting a month long plateau I need some new ideas. I'm afraid to change choices wo some guidance

I am 3 weeks post band op. I am in need of a hip replacement but need to lose weight for I get it. That is why I decided to get the lap band. However I am in so much pain daily because I can not take my much needed Aleve which did mask my pain. Tylenol does not provide any relief. Does anyone know med that is allowed other than Tylenol for pain relief???

Thank you ladies. I'm not going to worry. It's all still new. I had lap band so just eating anything is an accomplishment.

So I decided to log my food on MLP and it totaled 395 calories today. I mean I wasn't hungry. Feel fine but is this ok? I always heard of "starvation mode". As long as this is ok I'm fine but I don't want to be causing more harm than good.
It's hard because the things we 're allowed to eat are so few calories. sugar free Jello, broth, yogart, etc. it doesn't add up to very much. Help!!!

Thank you enjoythetime. You're response was very helpful and greatly appreciated. To see how the foods all fit in within a day. Getting a list from my nutritionist wasn't enough for me. Thank you for taking the time to share your wisdom ????

Ok so I'm finally able to move away from the staples of my life; the beloved Jello and broth. Any suggestions how to start, what to eat morn, noon night? I'm just trying to wrap my head around what a day looks like.
