Youve also successfully incorporated fiber and lean protein-rich lunches and dinners into your week four times each. Thats fantastic! Youve hit your target for the week and thats a significant step towards adopting a healthier nutrition routine. Your lunch yesterday looked delicious! I understand that youre not a fan of sorghum and thats okay. There are plenty of other fiber-rich foods you can try like spinach or broccoli. Theyre great for keeping you full and satisfied. And remember lean proteins are also key for your lunches and dinners. Theyll help you feel full longer which is beneficial for weight loss. Youre doing an amazing job!
