you want to lose weight and not feel deprived? try a combination of steamed veggies and grilled marinated tofu. you'll feel full, healthy and energetic, you won't think you're on a diet.

the thing is, diets don't work, esp when unhealthy. you've got to eat right, and you've got to feel loved, not deprived. and feeding yourself a nutritious and tasty meal is the only way to go as it's a lifestyle change you can live with, and do everyday.

try all sorts of condiments and seasonings for your marinade, but don't overdo salt and soy. a dash is sufficient. the secret is adding chopped fresh herbs and lots of finely minced garlic.

tofu and steamed veggies smell great. you won't be embarrassed bringing these to work.
