  • 7 ridiculous caffeine-laced products (and why they just might disappear)
A recent study says, maybe! New research revealed that people who ate a smaller lunch like, say, a portion-controlled soup or entrée, ate 250 fewer calories throughout the day (even when they ate whatever they wanted at other meals). While it’s obvious that athletes need to fuel up midday, there’s something to be said for reaching for the half turkey sandwich and a salad over a slice of pizza.

I'm a very picky eater so I don't eat much for lunch at school. I don't like bread, peanut butter, bananas, etc. which is not a good thing because there is not much to pack in my lunch that I like and school cafeteria food is gross and unhealthy. Whenever I pack my lunch it usually consists of grapes, yogurt, milk, and crackers with cheese. My stomach always hurts because I don't eat enough for lunch. HELP!!!

MOD MOD MOD im trying to eat healthy but still not eat a lot what should i choose im sick of thewhole wheat chicken burger




Hey girl, why not try incorporating more fruits and vegetables in your diet? Fruit is a great snack and full of vitamins. Substitute the greasy food with more healthy ones. You'll find you feel a lot better too mentally and physically when you eat healthy too.

lateyly i've been eating less, like at lunch, a peice of bread folded in half with pb and j and some trail mix, which i don't finish. in the morning i usualy have a small bowl of cereal and for dinner a salad. Am i gettin enough nutrients? I am always tired but I don't like stuffing myself, which is what happens if I eat more than what is listed... btw i don't eat meat so not deli sandwiches




You need to get protein. Try eating more peanuts or any other nut that has protein in it. That will help you from being tired. Also ask your doctro the best things for you to eat at your current age. xoxo kerra

If you’re on a diet and you’re really, really craving something, go ahead and eat it. You’ll be able to reinforce your diet longer if you don’t view it as oppressive.
