For breakfast, it's always a protein/fiber fruit/yogurt smoothie (thanks to Magic Bullet); for lunch, low carb sandwich, unsalted cashews and granola/yogurt; and for dinner, usually a large salad (occasional fish or meat) - not to mention continuing to drink plenty of water. It's amazing how I had eliminated the need and interest in snacking and how I have developed a craving for healthy (i.e., non-processed, low fat and sugar) foods. The result of all this has been a BMI in the normal range for the first time in many years and my cholesterol going from 232 to 171.

Awesome! Great News!
