ITA... try not to eat after 7. I always feel a little "accomplished" when I go to bed a little hungry.

I lost 5lbs in 2 weeks doing WW.

I think the real secret was that i was planning every meal and cooking real food with fresh vegetables!

Maybe try WW for a few weeks? You can still eat your favorite foods, but it's portion control, etc.

Eat 500 calories below maintenance for 3 days, then eat maintenance for a couple of days. Repeat the cycle. Zig zagging your calories like that will help you break through a plateau. Also, no sugar or starchy carbs!

Water only! No soda, iced tea etc. Lots of veggies, fresh fruit. Take a walk every night. It will come off!

The only beverage in my house is water or seltzer. I NEVER drink soda or any sugary drinks!! I will def take you up o the extra veggies thing. I try to eat alot fruits but this time of year is hard bc there arent many things in season except apples (which i always have one a day of). If i can find blueberries i get those for my greek yogurt in the mornings.
