Ht. 5'4", Start: 210 lb, Today: 176 lb, Goal: 140 lb - hey I was thinking of changing up my eating habits and lately I've been in love with salad. Chicken salad- to be exact. The chicken is cut up into little squares and made in half a tea spoon of olive oil and lemon juice. Will I lose any weight if I eat this everyday? substituting it for like a sandwhich or rice(brown) or something.

that is something good to stick with... however you eating it everyday you will get sick of it mix up the salad trydiffrent dressing like the salad sprizers 2 cals per spary. try tuna or lean pork or a hamburger crumbeled over teh top...you can lose weigt form only salad but do eat it plain try tommatos and cucumbers and carrots and w/e other vegs you like hope this helps

That sounds good but I read you're supposed to add variety to your diet so why not have a wrap, TV dinner (Weight Watchers of Lean Cuisine are yummy!), or microwavable soup once in a while? And of course make sure salads, fruit, water and some form of healthy carbs--like whole wheat bread--are in your diet too. You'll be alright, just keep going. ;)

yeah. i think esp. substituting it for a sandwich because bread can really slow the weight loss process. just be careful of your cals and make sure you're eating enough fruits and veggies and drinking water!

hey, yeah i think you will lose weight by eating that, its very healthy and low in cals. and to answer ur question of what i do, honestly all i do is count calories. i hardly exercise, but i try and walk when i can. i cheat a lot, but the weight still comes off, slowly but surely. like maybe 5 pounds a month if im lucky, but it doesnt bother me cause i know that a couple months down the road it adds up. stay strong, you can do it :)
