DAY 4 Eat balanced meals that emphasize whole grains, protein, veggies, and fruit For example, you might have 1 cup of scrambled eggs, 1/3 cup of oatmeal, and half a banana for breakfast one day. At lunch and dinner, you might have a chicken breast or tuna, a fresh veggie salad, and a piece of fruit. Aim for 2 nutritious, low-fat snacks per day. [16] For example, you might snack on cottage cheese and fruit for 1 snack and nonfat Greek yogurt with berries for the other snack. You can have unlimited veggies every day, so if you aren’t feeling satisfied by your meal, try adding a few more veggies to your plate.
