What are some inexpensive, uncomplicated, and effective things you've done to lose weight? Help me out pleeeaaasse.
I calorie count and try to burn at least an additional 500 calories a day. 3500 calories=1 pound so by burning at least 500 calories from exercise and maintaining a healthy diet, it is realistic to lose 1-2 pounds a week. Maybe even more depending on a person's weight.
I used to do this, but then a friend told me not to count calories or eat fruit or grains. I got so confused and disheartened that I just gave up and started eating junk again.

Edit: I highly recommend that you eat your calories as much as possible and not drink them.

I use myfitnesspal to track calories. This really helped me see how many calories I consume. I'm a bad snacker so a piece of this and a piece of that so when i was tracking I was like :_25: I ate that much
Why not eat fruit

do those meals still have a lot of salt? i remember years ago hearing that but i haven't looked again to see if that has changedstart off trying a lean cuisine diet... or portion control. my stomach shrunk.
do high powered workout.
don't buy sweets... simple as that. skip that damn aisle!
stop thinking about food... focus on something else and start listening to your body instead of looking at the clock.
eat when you're hungry, nothing more.
I weighed 218 at my highest, I'm now 165. I lost all that weight over 5 years. each year, I get smaller and smaller. It's way easier to maintain weight loss if you do it over time and not just in a rush. I still eat out and eat bad stuff once in a while, but won't gain weight.
Most importantly, treat it as a lifestyle, not a diet. Results will last longer and you'll just be healthier overall.

I have a hard time knowing how many calories are in food or even just restricting in general. I hate feeling hungry. So for lunch and dinner I try to make half my plate greens, then a good portion of protein, and a cup of rice for energy (I've found that I feel cranky without carbs)
Ill have a junk meal like once a week. Also establishing a workout routine will help reduce your appetite. I aim for 2-4 liters of water a day. I've realized that sometimes thirst gets misread as hunger. But if I'm really craving something I go ahead and get it. Sometimes I go through junk food phases (eating tons of twix or gummy worms), but once I'm done with it, I'm basically done with the food forever.
if you plan on juicing fruits, don't get the juicers that remove the backs/chunks from the fruit. i've incorporated juicing into my diet and if you get the ones that JUST give you the juice you wont be getting nay benefits from the juice. the blender is 10x better because you get EVERYTHING. the chunky parts are fibrous and nutritious.
if you plan on consuming the jucing mixture outside of the house, make sure you get a bottle that has a straw that wont get plugged up easily.
what i usually put into my blended fruit mixtures: apples, kale, spinach, orange, cucumber, grapes, etc. basically whatever is in my refrigerator at the time of mixing. if you're looking to add chia seeds and can't afford it, you can use pomegranate seeds instead, as pomegranate seeds are a good source of fiber and can fill you up quickly.
a quick warning: this mixture can be very filling
I steam a lot of my poultry now and mostly everything is plant based. I drink a lot of tea and I run everyday. I lost 40 pounds.
I also fast as well (be careful with the negative and ignorant comments. They will say that you are killing yourself which is not true.)
