    To lose weight? Measuring my food and hitting a weekly calorie goal.

    To get the body I wanted all along? Lifting heavy.

    Figuring out my TDEE - then filling those calories with a lot more protein and fiber than I was having. That along with getting my butt moving more. I started doing Kickboxing, which I love, so it makes it a lot easier to be motivated to go to class.

    Eating whatever I want at a moderate calorie deficit (approx. 1750 a day) and exercising regularly (4-5 times a week).
    I aim to eat a balanced diet for nutrition, but I don't deprive myself of things that I like. :smile:

    1: I don't cut anything out, I just eat less of it.

    2: Over-estimate calories consumed, under-estimate calories burned.

    3: TDEE - 15-20% (That translates to about 1800-2100 calories consumed daily)

    Patience.

    Logging EVERY LITTLE THING.

    Sticking to my calorie goals.

    Reading my log and finding the high calorie items that weren't important to me and dropping them out of my diet.

    Eating anything I wanted within my calorie allowance.

    It wasn't hard. It just took persistence.
