I'm working on losing a bunch of weight at the moment. Gave up drinking for lent, and decided what the hell might as well get in good shape. I'm keeping diet pretty simple. Drink lots of water throughout the day as it helps you feel full. I generally eat the same food as I did before, I just cut the size of my helpings in half. Focusing on eating way more protien and way less carbs. That's about it. I'm running almost everyday so I've started losing weight pretty quickly. If you put in the time to exercise, you're naturally going to be smarter with what you eat because you don't want to waste your good efforts. Exercise, lots of water, more protien, less carbs. Working pretty good so far.
