Successful diet plans?

I second what Robin said about Ketosis. I have been going to a local Weight Loss Clinic for about 6 months now and have lost 56lbs. I learned what I needed to know in the first 2 months but continue to go for the accountability. My daily routine is to keep my calories under 1000, Fats between 40-50, and Carbs under 25. Its easier than you think. I think of the carbs in $$$$. If I something is 15 carbs I ask myself "is this worth $15 to me?"

Don't overthink it.

Try the app "lose it" Its wonderful

@lively bride- I'd love to hear about your experience with a personal trainer? Is it intense and terrifying?!

You answered your own question... if you already work out and know that your eating habits are horrible then you already know that in order to achieve the results you want you need to change the way you eat. I'm using myfitnesspal.com. I lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks.

@kayla- sorry just saw this! I am doing Jamie Eason's LiveFit plan. It's a 12 week program (3 phases) of lifting and then the last two phases add cardio back in. The workouts change each week so your body ever gets too comfortable. I'm about to begin phase 3 and when I finish I'll go back and do phase two and three over again. Here is the link. I'd take time to read through all the program and watch the shirt videos, they're helpful.

As for food I am also following the eating and had transformed the way I eat and plan to keep it that way. My typical day consisits of 5-6 meals, lots of protein from chicken, ground turkey and egg whites, tons of veggies, healthy starches like Ezekial bread, sweet potatoes and brown rice. I cut out all processed foods and do tons of meal prep for FH and I on the weekends son we don't have any excuses to eat poorly during the week.

I've been reading up on some article of weight loss and this one is a good one shorturl.at/fCMN4.

I’ve lost 30 lbs by counting calories. You need to figure out your calories budget to maintain your current weight. Mine was 1500, but I’m a small and lazy person. To lose a pound a week you have to eat 500 calories less than your maintaining intake. Tips to do this well: get a food scale, and write out what each thing is worth. You could use my fitness pal, but I just wrote my stuff on sticky notes. Some days I wanted more to eat or I wanted something that was out of budget, so I got on the treadmill and walked until I worked it off. After a few weeks you won’t have to count as hard bc you’ll be able to kinda know what the right amount of food is for you.
