Losing weight boils down to simple math. When you burn more calories than you consume you will lose.

The only surefire way to know you're not eating too much or too little is to measure your portions and track your calories. Then there is no guessing if you're eating the right things, too much, or too little.

Talk to your Doc and NUT. I got to a point where I was burning a lot more than I was taking in (according to my fitbit). They told me to increase my calories- I upped them slightly by adding in Snacks instead of just 3 meals and I lost 5 more lbs quick.

Now I have hit another plateau, but that is another story.

I agree with Missy. I measure & log all my food. Still do, even at goal. The reason I continue to do this is when I eyeball a serving it is always more than what I think it is. And a little here, little there will add up quick.

I went in for a fill yesterday and we talked about how to measure protiet and volume is one cup per meal and to cut up my protient (steak) put it in a cup and finish the cup off with veggie so that 13 gr of protient per meal and not over my calories for the day...and to eat every 4 -5 hours so that my body is always working breaking down and using the food. tracking my food is most important hope this helped

#1 tip: Focus on developing habits.

Exercise everyday, record every meal,

Even if it's only 5 minutes and you don't count the exact calories once you can do these 2 things without effort it gets easier to record specifics and eventually figure out how to increase burned calories and decrease calories consumed.
