Losing weight really is as simple as basic addition and subtraction. If the calories you eat add up to more than what you burn in a given time period, you will gain weight. Conversely, if you eat fewer calories than you burn, you will lose weight. Depending on your size and activity level, the number of calories will vary quite a bit. The secret is finding your “break even” calorie intake level. For most people, the “ball park” figure will be around 1500 to 2000 calories per day. If you are larger than average, this number will be higher, lower if you are smaller than average. Metabolic rate can have an effect on these numbers as well. Exercise plays an important role also, as this can increase the number of calories you burn by quite a bit as well as increasing your metabolic rate.
If you want a generally healthy diet that’s easy to follow and avoids hunger, the one I recommend will do the job very well. You can fill up and still lose weight. Eat lots of fresh vegetables as they contain very few calories yet are full of good nutrition. The less you cook them, the more nutrition they retain. Stick with whole grains, as they tend to be better for you and don’t turn to sugar as readily as processed grains do. For example, whole grain bread is much better for you than plain white bread. Eat a variety of fruit on a daily basis. Avoid empty carbs, fats, and sugars…. Examples: junk food and soda. If you feel you need protein to build muscle, add some chicken or fish to your diet. Avoid beef and dairy products, the cons outweigh the pros.
If you can’t get your mind into the ‘eat to live; don’t live to eat’ mode, you should probably read this short article on the psychology behind overeating:

Replace regular milk with low fat or fat free milk. Eat whole wheat bread products instead of white flour breads. Increase your protein and veggies, decrease the carbs.
Start a workout routine, even if it just a walk around the neighboorhood 2 or 3 times a week for a 1/2 hour.

Stay away from high fat and calorie laden processed foods...cut back on pop and go to water, natural fruit juices and tea. Also try to exercise everyday for about 20 minutes...eat fruit, veggies,and protein and try to cut back on carbs...It's hard at first but in the end it's all worth it!! Good luck!!

Eat a grapefruit rather than drinking juice; the fiber can help you feel full longer, and grapefruit is proven to help with weight loss.

Include at lowest 10 to 15 grams involving protein, which suppresses ghrelin, a new hormone that stimulates your urge for food. Include eggs, which are which can control hunger.

Eat less, excercise more and drink more water. No "diets", no starving, and no BS. The less you take in and the more you expend will result in weight loss. Plain and simple.
