a LEAN Cuisine for Dinner - 270 Calories
and Stir Fry with cabbage on days I don't have a Lean Cuisine -
Since my husband isn't joining me eating healthy - and I can't force him....I've been pretty much sticking with the Lean Cuisines because it's easy
2 years ago I was down to 114 eating these - but I only had ONE a day. This time - I have 2 a day -
Should I stop the dinners and just go with veggies ? This is taking soooooo long ! |
Hey Villette, I am just learning all of this along with everyone else, but it seems to me if this is all you are eating then you are not getting ENOUGH calories. I've been reading about this thing that happens if you drastically cut your calories. Your body goes into "starvation" mode. It means that it feels like you are starving yourself so your body slows down your metabolism and holds on to the fat to keep you alive. This part is just my opinion, but Lean Cusines are ok once in a while, but all of the preservatives they must put in those things can't be healthy as a regular staple of your diet. Like I said, that is just my feeling, I know I feel better when I eat fresh...be it veggies, fruit, or meat or whatever. Just some "food" for thought. Now, I'll turn it back over to the people who know what they are talking about! Love from Teri
