I eat an awful lot of poached eggs.. What are your weight loss staples?

[latrucha]

For me, they tick all the boxes: tasty, filling, cheap, protein rich, low fat, easy to make.

What do you eat allmost every day when you're losing weight?

Fruit and Aldi fat free yoghurts every day during the week for lunch at work and yes to poached eggs for lunch at the weekend.

Plus the only thing I ever weigh is my cereal each morning - 1oz of Doves Farm corn flakes. It kind of sets my mind straight so that at least I'm starting each day off with good intentions...!

Poached eggs, apples and bananas.

I even bought a little plastic egg poacher like this

That's cute.

YY to apples, yoghurt and banana.

I eat too much cheese. Anything to replace that?

Eggs, eggs and more eggs

Scrambled eggs for breakfast.Rice cakes.

So I'm not alone then.

Bum.

Was hoping there was another magic food that I hadn't yet heard of.

Coddled eggs - with cheese. I love my cheese and can't give it up, so I now buy the strongest of strong cheddar and put a tsp of grated cheese in my egg coddler, all the taste and yummy meltiness in a tiny amount.

Hummous, and spicy sweet potato soup.

soup, ice lollies.

• Scrambled eggs (for breakfast, in lots of different guises)
• tinned sardines - loads of protein, low calorie
• wholemeal muffins - not too many more calories than bread, but feel like more of a treat
• bananas - really filling. High calorie for fruit, but lots of bulk and a good vitamin/mineral whack for 100 calories.

three ryvita for lunch with lashings of peri peri humous and a sliced avocado on top. Nom.

Porridge with cinammon for breakfast is a staple here. Plus i cant live without king prawns
mushrooms
roasted toms/mushrooms/peppers/onions
cadbury highlights hot chocolate for a sweet fix

I'd forgotten about those hot chocolates.

(makes mental note to buy hummus etc)

When I want to lose a few pounds quickly I start my day with 25g porridge oats mixed with frozen fruit, one sweetener and water. I microwave it for 3 and a half minutes. I eat other fruits and drink hot water.

I don't need any more of my 'skinny porridge' as it is shite fills me up for the morning. It is only 2 ww pro points.

Cauliflower. I eat fields of the stuff. Raw, steamed, roasted, mashed, shredded into "rice"...

Fried eggs, streaky bacon, butter, cream, mushrooms, spinach, cheese, more butter.

Atkins?

Cauliflower? Really? I never eat cauliflower!

yy to eggs and soup. And apples.

Butter, eggs, cheese, pork crackling...

Ryvita 'sandwiches' filled with marmite and Philadelphia extra light. Mmmmmmmmmmm

Ryvita with either pilchards and thick slices of cucumber on top. Or laughing cow very low fat soft cheese (the triangles) with wafer thin ham and cucumber again on top. Delicious and low calorie but lots of crunching involved which makes me think I've eaten lots.

Also sometimes I make a really milky coffee with hot milk - about 60 calories but makes a good snack on it's own so I don't eat any rubbish instead.

massive mushroom and cherry tom omlettes with lime pickle...

crabsticks

I'm not that keen on eggs myself, though I do have the odd omelette.
My weight loss staples are -
porridge made with mixed dried fruit, skim milk powder and cinammon
Low fat greek yoghurt with tinned peaches and a drizzle of honey. Absolutely delicious.
Reduced fat cheeses - cheddar, halloumi, feta, cream cheese spread. All find their way into my gob.
Quite a few more, but these are the things I enjoy the most.

Plus, I love those sparkling flavoured waters. I don't drink alcohol so a glass of this feels like a little treat. Same with a florida orange juice.

Porridge.

Prawns.

But not together.

(Used to eat eggs all the time, but now allergic :( )
