[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you're severely restricting which will majorly backfire. [/quote]

Why?[/quote]

Because it's not sustainable.  You may lose a lot of weight at first but it won't last. I mean this nicely as a former 300 pounder, you're idea of nutrition and healthy eating seems limited and that won't lead to long term success. [/quote]

I know what's healthy and I eat healthy. Low carbs, don't drink calories, including diet soda. Lots of veggies and lean protein, no fruit, no bread. My problem is portion control and snacking, even though they're healthy snacks like nuts, because I work from home.[/quote]

You said you have a salad for lunch and half a portion of a meal for dinner. That's not healthy or sustainable [/quote]

It's a big salad. Close to 500 calories.[/quote]
Split it, and eat in 2 meals.
Stop snacking, just eat veggies and protein every 2.5-3 hours - 3-4 oz of protein, 7 oz of veggies. Drink a lot of water in-between. [/quote]

So 250 calories for lunch and dinner each, plus snacks?

Ok.

But we're coming back to the same issue. I was eating whatever I wanted before and was stable at 276 pounds. Now I'm always hungry and gaining weight.[/quote]
Except you have no idea if you're gaining weight. Your clothes are looser and it looks like you've lost weight. I bet you were over 300 when you started IF and just had no idea because you didn't weigh yourself. [/quote]
