So, I am no nutritionist and I am certainly not very good at figuring out how to lose weight via nutrition. I do know that if you eat too many calories you may not lose weight and I also know that if you eat too few calories you may not lose weight. Talk about confusing. Anyone have any tips on how to know if you're over eating or under eating? I've been really working on trying to eat healthier and cut out all the processed crap and eat mostly whole foods as well as watching my portion sizes. I lost maybe two pounds and then stabilized when I did this. I am really frustrated as I used to just be able to go and work out more and I could lose weight very easily and fast. Now, not so much. I normally eat a bowl of fruit (grapes or watermelon) plus a protein shake mixed with a banana and milk for breakfast. Then I have a large salad with one half of a serving of ranch (30 calories according to the label as one serving is 60) and some ham cubes for lunch. Dinner is usually some sort of meat (not usually red meat, mostly chicken and fish), vegies, and maybe a potato or rice. Thanks for any suggestions! Oh and I forgot to mention that lately, I've been feeling not really hungry at lunch so I don't know if I should keep forcing myself to eat lunch or should I start just skipping it and just eating snacks of raw vegies (kind of what I prefer for snacks) as I get hungry later in the afternoon?
