So I haven’t exactly been counting calories while I’ve been on my weight loss journey. Mostly just been having success through intermittent fasting.
So I decided to count up the calories I have been eating on a typical week day and I noticed that it technically qualifies me for this sub.
I haven’t really talked anywhere online about my weight loss. I’ve wanted to but held back. I think it has mainly to do with bad body image. Encouragement and suggestions on other high protein/yummy foods are appreciated.

You’ve got this! Weight loss is a battle of trial and error. You learn new things everyday that help make the process easier, but the most important thing is to know there will be setbacks.
For me, I use this sub specifically when I either wanna eat with my eyes, or feel inspired to make something I know will be healthy for me. A Youtube channel I would recommend is Renaissance Periodization, it’s way more focused on the bodybuilding aspect of food. But it helped me learn how a calorie deficit works, and how I can stay consistent and motivated to stick to my goal.
Just yesterday I ate about 1000 over my limit( I stopped tracking lol) but I know today I will get back to it, knowing the progress is still there. Keep it up!
Sub mayo with plain Greek yogurt!
Is this what a typical day of eating looks like for you? If so, I would definitely recommend incorporating more vegetables and fruits into your diet. If this is how you’ve been eating for the past 10 months, probably you have developed some nutritional deficiencies. If that’s the case, I definitely think it would be a good idea to check in with your doctor regarding your diet.
Super congrats!! That’s awesome and a lot of work!! Good for you!!
I’d sub the butter for spray oil. Cheese is high protein. Hummus. Beans in general.
Also check out low carb tortillas and you can cut that down a lot too. Mission has zero cards small ones that are 25 calories and 2g protein per. Plus high fiber and no sugar. So you can have 3 for 75 calories and 6g protein vs 220 calories and 5g protein.
Bro is leaving sooo much volume on the table…
