    I dont really follow a diet... Im on a healthy lifestyle. I eat right , stay between 1200 to 1500 calories. I exercise between 20 to 60 minutes a day( some days more). I log in my food and exercise everyday to make me be accountable. I make wiser choices on food. We use to eat red meat and full fat ground beef and tons of tortillas. Now I make meals with chicken, fish , once in the while have red meat. and every so often I let my hubby choose what he wants for a cheat day. Like last week we had pozole....which wasnt that bad in calories. We also switch up our exercise routines.....

    I try to limit junk, keep my proteins, fats, and carbs balanced. I set a weight loss goal and then eat the proper amount of calories to loose wieight at the desired level. It works for me. I try to include a lot of fiber in my diet also from food and supliments. I am going to further refine my food choices as I go for better results.

    I try to stay within my calorie goal range. Lately, I try to eat more lean meats and vegetables. I tried going cold turkey and limiting all carbs for two weeks. Although I lost a lot of weight and inches, it only gave me more of a craving to splurge on the wrong foods afterwards. Now, I simply try eating less carbs and filling up on less starchy foods. I have found that limiting fried foods, junk food, and take out foods to one day a week works for me.

    I find lower carb high protein works best for me personally. Currently following the 27 day diet, stay within zone macros most of the time.

    I like Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet the best. I have tried weight watchers and Paleo in the past and I find that eating clean is a balanced approach to nutrition that I can maintain as a lifestyle.

    I am trying to keep within my 1200 calories. I also find that low carb and high protein works best for me as I am training alot now. I try to keep my carbs at about 100g but this doesn't always happen. But generally I eat good healthy food trying to get my carbs from veg. I do have a treat day on a sunday but then since I am starting this challenge I decided I'm scraping that cheat day!!
