60 lbs down- Healthy Meal Inspo (dorm)

Hiii. The slides do have *approximate* calorie counts on them, so pls scroll if you’d rather not pay attention to that:)

I live in a dorm and fully survive off of a microwave and air fryer loll. I’m also a nutrition major, and I go to the gym 4-5 times a week or whenever I get the time.

Normally my grocery list looks like this:

cucumber

spring mix

whole wheat bread

potatoes

sweet potatoes

soy/oat milk -unsweet

broccoli and cauliflower frozen

hummus

avocados

oikos yogurt

berries

frozen mango

parmesan

cherry tomatoes

cottage cheese

chicken (frozen or tenderloins)

tuna

oatmeal

Also, I just do these posts for inspo and because they’re fun to make:) You don’t HAVE to eat these things to lose weight, you just need to be in a calorie deficit.

... Read moreIn college, maintaining a healthy diet can be challenging, especially in a dorm setting with limited cooking options. The right foods can make a huge difference in weight loss and overall health. Here’s how you can structure your meals to include high-protein options while keeping calories in check. Start with proteins such as chicken, tuna, and cottage cheese which are rich in nutrients and promote muscle recovery – essential for students who are physically active. Incorporate healthy fats from avocados and olive oil, which can help you feel satiated. For snacks, opt for hummus with veggies, or yogurt topped with berries. These choices are both nutritious and satisfying. Be mindful of portion sizes and aim for a variety of colors on your plate to ensure you're getting a range of vitamins and minerals. Track your calorie intake with approximate counts like 520 calories and 40g protein meals, which can help manage weight effectively while fostering a healthy diet. Finally, remember to stay hydrated and combine your healthy eating with regular physical activity for the best results.
