I am realizing that I eat very badly. At this point I am literally trying to get on board with healthy foods, and how often I should actually be eating.

I’ve learned most people don’t realize how much calories they consume in a day! I know I didn’t until I started journaling! It’s not an easy thing to do...eating healthy...there will be ups and downs in the journey. Just keep trying & learn what works best for you! Just remember...this is a lifestyle change...not really a diet!! Good Luck to you!!4

Welcome, you've come to the right place! You don't have to force yourself to eat things you don't like. Just log everything you eat and come within your daily limit. Of course as time goes by you'll realize that there are lots of "healthy" things, like veggies, that are a lot more filling for the calories. You'll figure it out over time, you can do it, good luck!5

I logged for 7 days before changing anything. It turned out that I was maintaining obesity with a Monday-Friday calorie deficit and a Saturday-Sunday calorie surplus. The lesson learned was that I didn't have to change everything. I just had to work on 2 days. That was hard enough. It's been 2 years and everything has changed, but that was by the slow accretion of lessons learned.3
