I don't track my food intake any more.

I usually start my day with a smoothie. It will have a cup of leafie greens, all kinds of berries, broccoli and cauliflower, avocado, some kind of citrus, a scoop of protein powder and almond milk or water. That is a great start.

Lunch is or a bowl that includes some kind of protein. I keep canned meats like tuna chicken or oysters. Dinner is similar to lunch. Lots of veggies. For snacks it nuts and seed or nut butters.

I eat out more than I should and I stick with salads our salmon tuna and chicken. I avoid dairy any vegetables that are grown under the ground like potatoes. And no grain or beans.

I'm eat that way about 75% to 85%

I drink water and sparkling water. I won't give up coffee. I'm trying to limit it, but it's my last vice.

@denisestlouie I'm with you on coffee. I'm not giving that up unless my doctor says I really have to do that! ☕️

Denise, I am coming to your house! Your diet is very similar to what I do. It takes planning, definitely, but I've gotten used to it. And, to piggyback here, nope not going to give up my coffee in the morning.
