Less than me a month ago

I’ve been dieting for the last month and a half and I’ve lost 11 pounds. I started off by signing up for eDiets again ($12/mo.), but quickly realized that I don’t need the site anymore. I pretty much learned what I needed to last time, so I cancelled the subscription and I’ve been doing my own version instead... Perhaps I should call my diet plan: “Jake off the weight.” Ok, maybe not...

Anyway, I’m simply eating balanced meals and sticking to about 1500 calories a day. The trick for me is to make sure it’s easy to do... So, I've picked out food that is within my calorie range and is VERY easy to “make.” So, here’s what I eat:

Breakfast:
Piece of fruit (I usually buy bananas, apples, oranges, and nectarines)
Whole wheat English muffin
Bowl of cottage cheese (only on rare mornings when I have the time)
Coffee

Lunch:
Piece of fruit
1-2 large carrots
Low cal Subway sandwich (anything less than 300 calories, but I usually get a 6” roast beef. Regardless of type, I get no cheese, mayo, mustard, or oil but do get any of the veggies I want, pepper and vinegar; the vinegar actually does a good job of flavoring the sandwich on its own.)
Diet Pepsi

Dinner:
Piece of fruit
1-2 large carrots
300 calorie frozen dinner (mostly Healthy Choice dinners, which are quite tasty and a sufficient amount of food when supplemented with fruit and vegetables)
Diet Pepsi

So, I pretty much eat the same thing every day... However I’ve been pretty lenient this time around, so I usually eat out over the weekends and occasionally for dinner during the week. Even with these extra calories, I’m still almost hitting the target of 2 lbs/week. I also haven’t been exercising, so I’m getting off pretty easy for the amount I’m getting off!
