healthy or low fat/low carb?

in any case-

CHEESES:
philadelphia lite
ricotta lite
cottage cheese

CHOCOLATE BARS-
Atkins chocolate bars. high in fat/protein but really low in carbs- like 2 grams.. can give you diarrhoea if you eat too much plus the taste takes getting used to

BREAD ETC-
No breads are lowcarb, except Empower Wraps (you can only buy them at stores like GNC). Otherwise stick to wholegrain.

JELLY-
theres a heap of lite/diet jelly brands with artificial sweeteners. NOT healthy, but hardly any calories.

FRUIT-
Apples/oranges/pears are better than tropical

Various vegetable sticks with tzatziki? If you make your own tzatziki it'll probably be better still.

no

that is just dumb

lemon detox etc diets are the dumbest

no




this is your new diets
lean meats ie tuna chicken, breast, roo steak, lean beef
wholemeal breads
salads and vegies, larger portions of this, lower portions of meat
fruits for snacks
yogurts

etc

Apparently cold water with lemon in it speeds up your metabolism... And spicy foods
