Really feeling hungry and started eating junk!!! What types if things should I be eating ?

Protein, Vegetables, and Fruit! Stick to the basics.

My WLS Coordinator told us about a patient who lost over 110 lbs in a year. When she was asked how she was so successful, she told them she ate her Protein first, then her veggies if she was still hungry, then fruit if she was STILL hungry. If she wasn't full after all of that, she would go for a walk or do some sort of exercise.

I'm trying to stick to that plan

That's exactly what I do, and I've lost over a 100 pounds in 5 months.

@michelle626, I suggest you meet with a nutrionist to learn what you should and should not be eating and how much. It's crucial to your weigh tloss success.

Stay away from that fast food! It is not your friend!

Good luck on making healthy choices. Protein first, then vegetables is a great plan.

I'm surprised you can eat fast food. I can't eat any fast food but you know to eat Protein, protein, protein. cheese sticks, beef Jerky, yogurt are good sources of protein. So if you go to McDonalds get a fruit n yogurt parfait, salad, or grilled chicken sandwich but don't eat the bread.< /p>

When possible plan your meals and bring it with you. When I failed to do that I would have to eat at the company cafe which meant I would get higher cal meals because that's all they had (even their "healthier options" had more fat/cals than I wanted.)

If you must go to a fast food place look for options that are healthier: chili from Wendy's (they also now have baked sweet potato skip the cinamon butter though), grilled chicken (order sandwhich no mayo eat chicken and lettuce/tomato), KFC has a nice grilled chicken breast (have corn on the cob and green Beans for sides).
