Kaitlyn C asked:


I’ve gained a few pounds in the last month and want to get rid of them. Does anybody have any recommendations for really quick, easy to make meals and snacks? Along the lines of turkey sandwiches, crackers, stuff like that–something I can take to work. I’m trying to stick to about 1500 calories until I lose the 5. Thanks!

How do you stay on your diet, when your family wants fatty heavy meals in the evenings

I started a walking and diet program about a month ago. The walking is no problem. I walk every morning and have built up to 60 minutes. So proud of myself there. It is the evenings that I have a hard time with. The children or out of school and want to eat 24/7. Also my husband wants meat and potatoes in the evenings after a hard day at work. I made fish, rice and vegetables the other night. An hour later everyone wanted to know when dinner would be ready!!!

I really need to lose this weight. I am 40 and about 50 pounds overweight. Hopefully when the afternoons get a little cooler I will start walking in the evenings for a while also. The scale shows only a 3 pound weight loss. It is so discouraging and I know that it is from breaking the diet and eating unhealthy sometimes at night. Do any of you have suggestions or tips that help you? Thanks in advance.

I don’t wanna bring up the fact i’m on a diet cause she’ll be like, “You don’t need to lose weight” and she buys food i liked but is very bad for me. What can i ask for dinner when i can that is healthy for me and will not hurt a diet?

diet meals/recipes?

Michael R asked:


i have been trying to loose weight for some time but i keep giving up on diets because they are impractical to my schedule. i am in school from 8:30-3:30 every day so i have to be able to carry food with me, i have access to a microwave at lunch but thats it. breakfast has to be quick because i try to get as much sleep as i can. lunch has to be pre-made so i can carry it with me in a tupperware or something and dinner has to be the same way because i work every night. i have no problem with dieting i just can’t follow any because they say things like “don’t eat more than so many calories” i have no time to calculate that kind of stuff so i just need like a few different meals that i can make beforehand. so what i’m really asking is this. what is a good diet plan with recipes for someone with a tight schedule?
