Other things to consider:
- Don't forget about those 100 calorie packs at the supermarket. They come in so many varieties like Oreo, crackers, cupcakes,
etc. and are only 100 per serving. They're great, just don't eat more than one serving.
- Combine safe foods for times when you are really hungry or when you have to eat. For example, mix 2 egg whites, 2 tablespoons
of chopped onions and 1/2 of a chicken breast and fry it in a pan with no oil. This can be a nice breakfast or even a lunch,
people will think you are eating a lot when you aren't, and best of all it has less than 150 calories.
- Drink Diet soda to fill yourself up, but don't forget the water. Good, plain old water is much better for you than
soda and if it's cold it will make your body burn calories trying to warm itself back up. Plus, water is good for your hair,
skin, nails, etc.
- Buy and eat foods designed for diabetics or people who are on diets. These foods are usually low fat, low calorie and
low sugar. Read the labels to make sure, but you can find lots of things like cereal and cookies that are much lower in calories
and sugar than you stuff you'd normally buy. Plus, people will see you eating a cookie and be satisfied that you are eating.
They won't know it's sugar free.
