Wait a minute, you bumped your post from over a year ago with this declaration?

A consistent calorie deficit over time is the one and only thing you have to do to lose weight. As far as hydration is concerned, all water based fluids count. You don't have to get some arbitrary amount each day. You can use the color of your urine as a guide.

Can you tell this to my cat, please? He won’t take it from me. (And was therefore hospitalised with dehydration and severe constipation earlier this month, which is no small matter when you’re 19)

Of course, he’s trying to gain weight rather than lose it. And seems to be doing the opposite of saving money...

...hey, anyone want cat pictures?

Wow i didnt expect everyone to be mad at me.ive been overweight for over twenty years and ive had enough.im just trying to find a plan that works.i hope to find a plan this week and if it works ill let you know.

May I recommend not continuing on with the 800 cal you were boasting about yesterday?

I suggest starting by logging what you are eating now for at least a week. Review those logs to see what changes you can make that will get you to your goal without being a significant sacrifice. There is no need to follow a specific diet plan, there is no need to make this harder than it already is. Focus on the things you want to add. If you want to increase fitness, focus on adding in activities that you enjoy (or at the very least tolerate). If you want to increase fruit and veggie intake, focus on adding in at least one serving of veggies with your meals, and a fruit or two for snacks.
