However, you can lose weight by eating the same food every day, multiple weight loss warriors testify. Online fitness coach Alexandra (<a rel="noopener noreferrer external nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/alexxandra.fitt/?g=5" target="_blank">@alexx.fitt</a>) personally lost 40 pounds by making simple changes to her diet and fitness routine. She regularly shares videos on Instagram and TikTok about all the hacks she used to slim down. In a recent video she details her weight loss diet – and it's incredibly simple. </span></p> <h2><span>She "Ate the Same Meals Every Single Day"</span></h2> <p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1038" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/01/alexxandra_fitt4.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="" width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>"For 1-2 months I ate the same meals every single day why? Because I was confused I didn't know what to eat or where to start so I ate the same thing everyday," Alexandra confesses in the caption of her video. </span></p> <h2><span>Breakfast</span></h2> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1036" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/01/alexxandra_fitt3.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="" width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>For breakfast she gave herself two options, one sweet and the other savory. One "would always be oatmeal with a scoop of protein powder and brandy butter," she reveals. The second? Eggs with turkey bacon, veggies, and a bagel.</span><a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://bodynetwork.com/health-anti-aging-tips-looking-younger-after-50/" target="_blank"><span></span></a></p> <p><b>RELATED:</b> <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://bodynetwork.com/grocery-items-nutritionists-avoid/" target="_blank"><span>I'm a Nutritionist and These are 5 Things I Would Never Buy at the Grocery Store</span></a></p> <h2><span>Lunch</span></h2> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-1714" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/01/alexxandra.fitt-7.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="" width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>For lunch she kept things simple. "I'd usually eat some type of wrap/ sandwich I'd add mayo, turkey, ham, salami, cheese and a bunch of veggies," she writes. </span></p> <h2><span>Snacks</span></h2> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2306" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/02/shutterstock_1387118372.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="Closeup on fit sports woman in sport clothes with chocolate raw protein bar using smart watch in the modern living room." width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>Alexandra had a few go-to snacks. "I'd have a protein bar, protein shake, fruit, yogurt bowls, bagels with cream cheese, snack plates, anything I was craving that day, just made sure it was a decent portion," she says. </span></p> <h2><span>Dinner</span></h2> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-4104" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/02/Alexandra_alexx.fitt11.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="" width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>For dinner, she "would switch things up" but gravitated toward bowls. She would "add a bunch of lettuce, rice and either ground turkey, chicken, ground beef, any kind of protein and I'd add toppings like tortilla chips, Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, salsa, cheese ugh they're so good and so filling," she says. </span></p> <p><b>RELATED:</b> <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://bodynetwork.com/health-anti-aging-tips-looking-younger-after-50/" target="_blank"><span>25 Ways to Not Look Older After 50, Say Experts</span></a></p> <h2><span> RDN Weighs In</span></h2> <p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2658" src="https://bodynetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/9/2024/02/tara_collingwood6.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=640" alt="" width="640" height="469" /></p> <p><span>"The diet looks great," says </span><a rel="noopener noreferrer external nofollow" href="https://dietdiva.net/about/tara-gidus-collingwood/" target="_blank"><span>The Diet Diva</span></a><span>, Tara Collingwood, MS, RDN, CSSD, LD/N, ACSM-CPT, a Board Certified Sports Dietitian.
