M.W.
We eat organic apples and bananas for snacks around our house and they make you feel satisfied for a longer amount of time than anything else we've tried.
My husband lost 40+ pounds by doing a 7 day colon clense and then eating better. (He started at about 190#) For breakfast he eats a bowl of organic cereal such as shredded oats. Mid morning he has a yogurt cup or an apple. For lunch we ALWAYS have a large meal. Salad, meat, potatoes, vegetables. Most is organic. In the afternoon (about 4) he has some toasted Ezekiel bread (cinamon/raison) with honey. Again, organic. At nightime we juice fresh vegetables and fruits. This seems to be the biggest help as we all seem to feel like snacking at bedtime. We usually juice carrots, apples, and celery. IT TASTES GREAT! You no longer feel hungry and in the morning you only need a small bowl of cereal because you fill up faster if you juiced the night before.
You just need to control your snacking urges. If you are hungry, grab some nuts or peacons. They are a very good scorce. They contain all the good fats and are actually good for you! I highly recomend juicing as well. It only takes us about 10 to 15 minutes each night to juice. You could juice multiple times a day if you wanted. We just went to Target and bought the Jack Lalaine power juicer for $100. We've been using the same juicer for about 2 1/2 years now. (It could use a new blade but we're still making due!) Our diet consists of about 90% organic and 10%conventional foods. I don't know if this for sure makes a difference but it makes me feel better knowing that my family is not eating high fructose corn syrup and pesticides.
Diets won't work. You need to maket the commitment to make a lifestyle change if you want to lose weight and be healthy. There is no magic pill that will do this for you. Good luck.
