[quote=Anonymous]It's not good to do too drastic of a calorie drop, otherwise your body will go into starvation mode and your metabolism will grind to a halt. That will make it very hard to lose weight and you will quickly gain what you have lost. This is great for Weight Watchers and similar programs because it keeps you subscribing, but not great for your health or the long term. How many calories do you normally consume? I'd start by removing simple carbs, fatty snacks and sub in healthier options (fruits, apples with peanut butter, cheese sticks). Then I'd start cutting calories gradually. There are online calculators and so forth that can help you figure out how many calories you need depending on your activity level and so forth. Lose It and other apps can help a lot. That's what I've been doing while adding in exercise, lost about 8 pounds so far, but lost a lot of body fat/gained muscle.[/quote]
