If you're NOT following a specific plan
Besides a calorie deficit, what else do you watch (or helps you lose easier)? I understand clean eating and eliminating processed food is best for you, but do you also watch your fat, carbs, or protein along with a calorie deficit?

Can we talk protein?
Im curious if any of you have adjusted your protein amount up or down to see if it helps weight loss? If so, what were your findings? Im not necessarily doing % like 25/5/70.

Too much sugar in fruit
I do really well keeping all my nutrition in check with what MFP says I need on a daily basis. Sometime going over in Protein, which I think is ok.
