    Good luck to you! Love the positive attitude. A few tips to get you going:

    - Buy a food scale and use it religiously! You need to know exactly how much you're putting in your body. If you "guesstimate" you will be wrong 100% of the time.
    - Log everything you eat. Don't get in the mindset that you can only log sometimes. You need to have a history of what you eat to help you know what your triggers may be, know what you are lacking, etc.
    - Don't give up just because you go over. Make up for it during the week or just take it as a lesson and move on. Bumps in the road will happen, this is not a straight line
    - You are accountable for you. Everyone here can push you, but if you aren't honest with yourself, it won't matter what anyone else does.
    - PERSONALLY: Calories In vs Calories Out (CICO) is the way to lose weight. Anyone who says you HAVE to eat clean, low carb, keto, etc. are fooling you. While they may lose weight faster, it is not something you can normally stick with. Science has proven that CICO is how you lose or gain weight. So eat that pizza, eat that burger, don't force yourself to have salad every single day. Eat the way you want to live your life, just learn to do it in moderation.

    Good luck to you and add me if you like (as well as anyone else)

    Why I agree with the gentlemen above about calories in vs calories out, if you're serious about seeing your body change I would remove this kinds of foods until you understand how your body works and get to a place nutritionally where you can reintroduce some comfort foods. Unfortunately losing weight is not easy and you have to sacrifice something good luck on your journey crush your workouts and make smart choices
