[quote=Anonymous][quote=penguinsix][quote=Anonymous]OP, I found this thread and wanted to check in and see how you're doing? I am trying to cut calories and don't know where to start! [/quote]

[b]Easiest way to start is the least dramatic--smaller portions of the foods you are currently eating. [/b]Take liquids. What are you drinking each day? Milk, Orange Juice, Coke? Cut down the sizes of the things you drink and replace that with an equal (if not more) amount of water. Take an 8 oz orange juice and make it a 4 oz orange juice. Then move to lunch. Maybe not eat two slices of bread in a sandwich but do it with one. Cut back on the snacks like chips that you are eating.

This is just to start--you don't have to make a radical reshuffle of your menu, just smaller sizes. As you get going, you can then start to identify some of the big 'bad' items on your diet and substitute them with slightly healthier / lower calorie alternatives. Then you can make great adjustments knocking off some items from your diet entirely and replacing them with healthier options.

It's a relatively simple way to start. You don't want to get so frustrated from the get go that you give up.

This is a great advice. [/quote]
