WHAT TO EAT WHEN:
Stick to proteins (nuts, jerkies, eggs, etc) in the AM & at lunch
~~this will kick start your metabolism & provide you long lasting energy all day
If possible--make LUNCH your "big" meal of the day.... and make it low on simple carbs (white bread, rice, pastas, etc)
Make dinner a small "lunch sized" portion... this is where you can eat your carbs... just don’t go crazy.... since you are eating less carbs, when you do eat them your body may go into the "soar/crash" mode... if you limit carbs to evening, then you will "crash" when you should be going to bed...
SNACKS: are important. Keep fresh fruits, bite sized fresh veggies, roasted nuts, & beef/meat jerkies around... at home AND at work...
IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER ABOUT DIETING:
EXCERSIZE is important too. (My Dr would KILL me if I didn’t mention that...)
Eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, & snacks--eating small amounts all day is actually MORE effective for dieting
DO NOT reduce your intake to below 1000-1200 calories a day without talking to your doctor
DRINK PLENTY of fluids--especially water--
SET GOALS: set goals in terms of weight loss & size loss--and live by them!
Fat is larger, but weighs less, than looser... DONT PANIC
Do NOT weigh in too often--studies have found that people who weigh in more often lose less weight & are more likely to do unhealthy things to lose weight--
I personally alternate between weighing in and measuring... before I started dieting I wrapped pieces of curling ribbon around my waste, hips, upper arm, & thigh and cut them to length. Now I weigh in once a month and measure once a month... When I weigh in I CHART/RECORD my progress (in terms of LOSS... not how much is left to go.) Every time I measure I wrap new pieces or ribbon (different colors). I then hang the original ribbons with the new ribbons... those are REALLY good visual indicators of what your weight loss MEANS...

Actually, there are no bad foods... but foods eaten in excess will cause weight problems. Keep your metabolism at bay all day by eating five small meals throughout the day. Avoid all foods made with white flour and whole milk. Load up on veggies and fruits, but forego butter and heavy salad dressings. Sugar is very hard on the body... almost as bad as trans fat !!! I love ice cream. I could eat a big bowl every night... but I just get my treat twice a month, and it's a small bowl. So, treat yourself... but not every day. Good luck !!
