    Eating under 1200 calories M-F then going batsh!t crazy on weekends is a surefire path to disordered eating.

    The biggest bonus of weight loss is improving your health. While you are doing that, learning how to eat properly will definitely be an asset in the long run. I don't mean that you have to "eat clean" all the time, I mean find a balance that works for you. It will take time, trial and error, and you may have really awful days, but finding that balance is key to losing the weight AND keeping it off.

    Also, you have some other very good suggestions here. Hitting protein and fat macros helps with maintaining lean body mass...do some more research, you will find your way. Best of luck.
