[quote=Anonymous]I can comment on the "What do you eat in a day if you're obese?" versus "What do you eat in a day if you're skinny", since I have been both. I lost more than 100 pounds over 2 years (non-surgically).
Being 100% honest, here is my diet at about 260 pounds versus now (150 pounds)

Obese
Breakfast: 3-4 cups of coffee with 2% milk, splenda (usually no breakfast)
Lunch: Very large salad with many pockets of high calorie items (macaroni salad, chicken salad, fried tofu, hummus) and usually a higher calorie dressing. Due to the number of high calorie sides, the calories could have been 800-900. 
Before dinner: Grabbed 2-3 "Balanced Breaks", as I was usually very hungry by then (they have about 200 calories each), or had cheese dipped in mayonnaise and mustard. I was so hungry when I got home (around 5) I needed to eat a few things before dinner, which was almost always a heated up meal (never cooked)
Dinner: Frozen dinner (Lean Cuisine), followed by several other snacks like celery and hummus, chips and dip, etc 
Snack: Later night I'd usually have 2-3 bowls of ice cream or some other absurd late night snacking binge (ice cream followed by chips, a bowl of cereal followed by ice cream, etc)

Today:
Breakfast: Oatmeal with fruit, almond milk
Lunch: Garden salad. Volume wise, mostly low calorie items like Kale, cauliflower rice, etc. Protein source like tofu or beans. A few tablespoons of fat items (weighed): hummus or avocado. Salsa or oil and vinegar for dressing
Dinner: Usually a cooked meal, consisting of protein (tofu, tempeh, beans) with a starch and abundance of vegetables.(usually brussels sprouts) 
Snack: (if needed): frozen fruit in almond milk

I can say honestly I overate as an obese person. And i didn't exercise. I am a different person now.[/quote]
