Extra tips ✨

Any healthy snack ideas?

Low-calorie snacks suitable for weight loss:

  • Carrot and cucumber sticks with hummus
  • Greek yogurt with berries
  • Apple slices with peanut butter
  • Air-popped popcorn
  • Boiled eggs
  • Cherry tomatoes with mozzarella balls
  • Cottage cheese with pineapple
What should I drink on this meal plan?

For weight loss, water is the best choice to stay hydrated without adding calories. Green tea can boost metabolism. Black coffee in moderation, without added sugar or cream, can be beneficial. Herbal teas, especially those without added sugar, are good options. Fresh vegetable juices, preferably homemade, can be nutrient-rich without added sugars.

How to get even more nutrients?

For weight loss, emphasizing protein, fiber, and healthy fats can help manage hunger and energy levels effectively. High-protein foods like lean meats, fish, and legumes aid in satiety and muscle maintenance. Fiber-rich foods such as vegetables, fruits, and whole grains keep the digestive system running smoothly and also contribute to feeling full. Incorporating healthy fats from avocados, nuts, and olive oil can increase flavor while helping to maintain a feeling of fullness.
