Question

How much should I eat per day while trying to lose weight? What should I eat?

Answer 1

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter your stats and it will tell you how many calories a day you need to maintain your weight. take 300-400calories off that number and that's how much you need to lose weight.
eat 5-6 small meals a day instead of 3 big ones.
5-8 servings of fruit and vegetables a day.
8 glasses of water a day.
4-6 times a week cardio work out for 30-50min plus light weight training.
no junk food, no sodas, no white flour (white bread, pasta, cookies, cakes etc)

Answer 2

Raw celery (it takes more calories to digest celery than it actually has in the veggie, so technically you're consuming negative amounts of calories) just drop the dressing though... Don't skip meals or anything, that sometimes makes you gain more weight cause your body goes on starvation mode and starts producing more fat. Just eat three good HEALTHY meals a day (limit the snacking unless its fruit or veggies) and exercise a lot. But really, you shouldnt be worrying about your weight too much, just maintain a healthy lifestyle and you'll eventually lose any extra weight

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.

The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.

I have heard that as long as you eat modestly and exercise during the day and quit eating after 6 at night you will lose weight.

Answer 5

I heard you eat 1/2 as much as you would normally.
I've been eating lots of salads and lost @5 lbs within 1-2 weeks. I don't even use diet dressing. Just lettuce, different vegi's and I've been putting chopped grilled chicken on them. Super yummy - Don't use cheese if your dieting though.
