I am seeing posting and when looking at their food diaries it is a nightmare. Take it from an old lady who has lost a whole ton of weight in my life. I know how to do it just have a problem keeping it off because I am also a gourmet cook and I love to eat what I cook.
You can have bread but cut back to 2-3 slices a week and do whole wheat vs white. A little pasta goes a long way. You can have a slice or 2 of bacon a week. It won't kill you. I see people staying below their calorie intake but everything else is out of control. You need a balance. If you don't eat a good healthy diet you may lose but you are not making choices that are going to keep the weight off.
You don't have to deprive yourself but for God's sake stay out of McDonalds if you are serious. Learn how to cook. It is fun and you will feel much more satisfied. If you are eating packaged meals you are filling your body with sodium and crap that will make you sick. If anyone would like recipes let me know I will be glad to help you out. some of you are asking for a stroke or heart attack and I am not some kind of health nut believe me.

Good luck on your journey OP!

I'd suggest you read up on credible nutrition advice before spouting off.0 -

But by your own admission, your own cooking is your downfall?
It think its more important to learn balance - you can have these things once and a while, whether it be a McDonalds Burger or Twice Cooked Pork Belly - but overall you need to eat more of the healthy stuff to stay within your healthy weight range0 -

This gonna be guuuuuuuuuud!!

^^ This.Eyes on your own paper, thanks.
And ^^ this.
But seriously, who cares? If I'm happy and losing weight by staying under my calorie goal but eating McDonalds for every meal, what's it to you? Simply restricting calories regularly enough to be losing weight consistently is a pretty big accomplishment for a lot of people, and eating under a certain amount of calories [no matter the food] is still healthier than not doing anything at all.0 -
please don't judge others for how they live their life... just do your own thing and keep it to yourself.0

Only thing that would make that white toast better is Sunnyside up eggs....and bacon. Dirty, dirty bacon.0 -
