Lacking the motivation to even walk...

[Berry78 4,259]

So my day:

Breakfast: 4oz cottage cheese and 4oz fruit

Lunch: 1 egg and 4oz pinto Beans

Snack: 1oz nuts or seeds

Dinner: 4oz meat or fish and 4oz spinach

1 cup milk and 2 cups coconut Water

I spread things out since I can't eat more than 4oz at a time.

Awesome! Thanks for the info. I think what's really going to help me is weighing my food and meal prepping.

I need to stop being lazy and plan my stuff better!

Thanks for the helpful tips! I'm going to really work on it.

The sooner you get away from Protein Shakes and bars and on to real foods the better.

The trouble with powders and bars is they limit your intake of nutrients and they are sweet and encourage thinking about other sweets.

I disagree. I am 2.5 years out and I still use powder and Protein Bars to supplement my diet. Of course I am using it to help with my weight lifting so my Protein goals are much higher. They do not limit your intake of nutrients unless you are using them for your sole source of food.

As for encouraging thoughts about other sweets, I find the opposite to be true. Why bother with a chocolate chip cookie when I can have a Protein Bar? Why have a milkshake if I can have a Protein Shake? Cakes don't interest me when I can make a coffee cup protein cake.

Making the preparation of a meal can become the substitute ritual that becomes a habit. Instead of eating being the focus, the preparation becomes the ritual then the habit.
