Yesterday, I had an audition, and unfortunately slept in early. The day before we had a registered dietitian come into our school, educating us on what was and wasn't good to put into our bodies. W...
  • annefood Hey @ciaireee ! Nice choice in the whole grain toast. Have you tried topping it with peanut butter and banana slices? The peanut butter adds protein that fuels your body and helps keep you full...
  • SuzanneM How about almond butter? I found a great brand (called Once Again Almond Butter) that has no sugar in it, and to me, it's a little more tasty than peanut butter. And it's full of healthy fats that...

  • annefood Awesome @ellieks !
  • Brianne I like to toss in some bananas and nuts for added texture. I took me a couple tries to get used to the texture of chia seeds, but now I love it.
  • melaniegong No sugar! Yay!
Replace saturated fats from butter, lard, pastries,cream with unsaturated fats found in vegetable oils, nuts, seeds, oily fish and avocados.

  • annefood Great tip !
  • SuzanneM 100% agree with this tip. I know there is a lot of info out there about fat making a comeback. But it's not about any fat. We need to be eating healthy fat!
  • darkchocolatepeanutbutter Love the tip @evasu! I just to clarify that a vegetable oil like coconut oil can also be saturated but it is still a great alternative.
Don't get more than you can eat and try eating slower since this balances out your digestive system allows you to become more full quickly.

  • Unpassions You guys got any questions?
  • KyFish What is your strategy for knowing how much you can eat? At cafeterias where I have to choose my own portions, I never seem to get it right.
  • Unpassions @KyFish First of all, try not to skip meals because skipping your meal may result in you with an abnormally large appetite. Second of all, try starting out with your veggies since these are always...
Drink a glass of water before your food, it will make you feel more full and make you want to eat less!

For a no sugar breakfast try some Homemade toast and eggs by heating a frying pan with a little bit of salted butter and after fry some scrambled eggs on that same pan, after top the toast with the...
  • annefood Great breakfast @juliasalviati !
  • KyFish I do this as well. But I use this 7 grain bread from my farmers market because it doesn't have any added sugar like some grocery store bread, and it's better for managing my diabetes.

By adding lemon juice to your water it gives it taste, helps detox your body and helps increase your metabolism
  • Amieroe that's smart although be careful because to much acid is bad for your teeth :)

  • annefood Such a great way to add veggies! Nice @NoaMashiah
  • Philippa Yummy!! Looks great.
  • IEatWell This looks yummy. I like mixing lots of fresh veggies with fish or meat. I realize I don't need as much protein to be satisfied.
A good way to stop drinking soda is to find a healthier alternative like carbonated water. For extra flavor add some lemon or lime slices.
