Going On A Diet

[Robstar]

Hey I'm going on a calorie counting diet and I was wondering if anyone here has had experience with this and can recommend easily available low calorie foods. I'm aiming for between 1000-1500 calories a day. It's tough!

Yeah I'm down with those things, all veggies are pretty good. Do you mean greek yoghurt?

an uncle did a "tequila and cheese" diet, that was all he had in a day...... it lasted two days and didnt make him lose weight but he had a really fun time LOL haha

greek is good
also there is Yoplait ones, (don't know if you get them in AU) but they are rather low in calories, have no fat and taste good.

The only diet i've ever done was a chemical diet (google it)
It was reccomended for people going into surgery.
It's a crash diet, and pretty damn extreme! Not to be taken lightly.
But... it is effective. I lost 10lbs in a week!

You don't need to go on a diet - behave yourself.....

Diets = bad
Eating the right food = good

This is true.
A male should eat 2500 (or i s it 2000?) calories a day. As long as you do regular exercise, then you should be fine.

this is probably better advice than any I can reasonably offer
seriously, I am a rather large man, so it's altogether possible that I have no idea how to eat right
now, if you want a good recipe for bacon-wrapped meatloaf, or a breakfast casserole, I can probably help there.

Yes we have Yoplait.

Basically it is all about healthy eating but controlling your portion sizes - something I've never been good at! And cutting out alcohol *wwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
