    It's mostly about how much you eat... but....

    What you eat affects your hunger. High fiber low calorie foods make you full on less calories.

    My plan (most days):

    Breakfast ~ 500 cal:
    Kashi GoLean Cereal (2.8 oz) w/ 1% milk
    Chobani Yogurt

    Lunch ~ 4-600 cal:
    Salad (Fast-food salads are OK, homemade are better) w/ chopped, grilled meat (usually chicken)

    Dinner ~ 4-600 cal:
    Same as lunch... usually homemade, sometimes Panera

    Evening ~ 100 cal (if I'm >100 cal under goal):
    Hood Mini Ice Cream Sandwich (100 cal)
    and/or Irish Whiskey (~100 cal / jigger)

    I often go under by ~200 calories. My daily goal is 1662... I figure that if I am eating a salad out (especially McD's) I can add at least 100 calories of extra cheese, etc that they load on. Less than 400 calories for a McDonald's salad (w/ chicken & dressing) my REAR... there's just no way that's possible with the amount of cheese they put on. (Magic cheese, anyone??)

    This is fairly low carb (carb load is in the morning).
