Afternoon Snack- fruits that is a berries such as blackberries and blueberries are great because they are about 60 calories a cup. Have a wheat toast or crackers for fiber.

Nuts- nuts are great. They are full of protein, fiber and good fat. But nuts are also very high in calories. Try not to have more than 8 almonds per sitting.

Cut out high calories and fat protein such as beef. Switch to fish like salmon and chicken breast. Enjoy with steam GREEN vegetables. This meal is less than 500 calories.

Things to say NO to: 1. Social Life, 2. Cheat Days, and 3. Sweets. Social life is dangerous, don't go out to eat to drink. You need a controlled environment and focus on the goal weight.
