Low Calorie Foods I’m Eating Right Now for Volume (and a 1200 calorie day)
70 days left of my weight loss journey, for Bikini prep 2023
To follow up with my post yesterday about what I do when I get hungry dieting, I think I need to add that I eat a lot of high volume food that makes it so I don’t experience hunger too often.
- cucumbers and cinnamon 30 calories for a full cucumber
- Cauliflower Rice- 15 calories per 3/4 cup
- Zero calorie drinks –
- Baby carrots with course salt (mmmmm!!)- 40 calories per cup
- Broccoli- roasted with cooking spray and salt – 30 calories per cup
- konjac noodles or Heart of Palm noodles
- Canned green beans- Only 30 calories for the WHOLE can!
- Canned artichoke hearts (not in oil) – 60 calories for the WHOLE CAN
- Sugar free Jello – 40 calories total for the large box.
- Altoids < 5 calories per mint
- Sugar free apple cider – 15 calories for a cup
- Hard boiled egg whites -Only 15 calories each
What about you? Do you have any VERY low calorie foods you fill your meals with?

Hi Amy, I just wanted you to know that I lost 1.2 pounds in the last week! I’ve been losing each week using your meal plans, but this week was a big one! This brings my total lost to 15.1! I have about 18 more to go, so I’m sticking with it. Your plans make it easy because the yogurt snacks feel like a treat!
YEAH Christine!!
THANK YOU for checking in and sharing that with me! You’re half way!
It also helps to stay motivated when you are actually seeing progress, don’t you think!
How do you feel? 15lbs feels so much lighter, doesn’t it!?
Keep me posted on the next 18!!
Amy
