[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try IF. I eat between 12 and 7 - cut out breakfast and eat dinner on the earlier side. No snacking after dinner. Also cut your portions. You'll might be hungry for a few days, but I promise your body will adjust. Also be more thoughtful about alcohol, if you drink. Drink slower when you do drink and if you mindlessly pour yourself some wine when you're bored in the evening (I used to do this), stop unless you really want it.

In terms of meals, you don't have to calorie count but you do have to realize that weight loss is calories in, calories out, and plan accordingly. I love carbs and didn't want to give them up, so I usually eat my carbs at lunch. You also have to make smart cuts. I do an open-face sandwich at lunch, for example.

Also, increase your veggie intake at dinner and cut portions of everything else. Like you can have one piece of chicken, not two. I've found that a big batch of veggies in the air fryer is pretty satisfying - you get the roasted taste with just a few spritzes of oil spray. Trader Joe's has lots of dry seasoning blends that add some interest/punch as well. I like the Green Goddess seasoning and also the lemon pepper grinder.

A typical day of weekday eating for me is:

- 1 cup black coffee (breakfast)
- 1 wedge of Laughing Cow cheese, spread on a slice of white toast, topped with lox and capers (lunch) OR half a can of tuna and a small piece of cheese OR a cup of soup
- 1 serving of meat or fish (air fried or cooked with minimal sauce), roasted/air fried/steamed vegetables (unlimited)

I am not hungry on this and it gives me room to add a piece of chocolate or a few bites of ice cream if I want.[/quote]
