I have been dieting pretty strictly ever since I broke out my fat shorts purchased last summer and realized they don't fit... I also have high blood pressure which I am amending through weight loss, but it's so hard to cut carbs AND salt, so I'm working my way away from flavors more slowly than I probably should but with the ultimate goal to break away from my salty fixes, too.
To give you a little background on my eating habits: most of my diet has been vegetable soup, I drink coffee daily with stevia and a little milk/almond milk. I will drink a smoothie if I'm not in the mood for soup, or make a smoothie bowl. I purchase Daily Harvest once every few months and always have a pretty good selection to choose from. I don't beat myself up if I break my mostly liquid goal and eat a peanut butter and banana sandwich or something (with moderate peanut butter) or split wings with my husband when we go to the diner.
My grandmother suggested I eat cottage cheese with fruit for a snack/meal because it's great for weight loss. I've been eating the non-fat kind with fresh strawberry and blueberries on top. It's so good I swear to Christ I could replace my nightcap ice cream with this for the rest of my life... however, this is where I'm starting to think that cottage cheese is actually NOT a good option for weight loss. Can it be truly as harmless as Gram says it is? I am sure it's 'better' than ice cream, but I'm not really sure that's enough for me to maintain a lower weight going forward and I'd rather not fall into a trap/habit that I'll only have to reverse later. Does that make sense?
