everyone above me has missed some vital information to pass onto you. Fat is 100% the most filling macronutrient, followed by or equal to protein. CHO are usually NOT filling. My advice to you Eat calorically light food (whole foods tend to be very light on calories… ie Potatoes are hands down the most filling carb).…

for optimal body comp … you should spread your protein over 4 feedings. I personally think more if possible. Dr. Layne did a bunch of work on the leucine threshold and amount of times you should feed protein. basically… it's not ideal to eat all your protein in one sitting … by maximizing muscle mass …. you maximize your…

i usually don't record veggies…. i have a "unlimited policy" on calorically light veggies. i typical count my startch/pro/fats. Also i use a good greens supplement with supporting vitamins. Nobody's perfect so … we all lack something. :)

actually it's entirely possible, people who are metabolically damaged due to yo-yo dieting can have trouble loosing weight .. even at extreme caloric deficits. Look at your past 3 year diet history, how many times you've been on low cal diets … then if often… look into metabolic damage.
