[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 737361, member: 4152"] Oddly, if I eat very little meat, I gain weight. Even if I eat in a healthy manner. I suspect I need a high-ish amount of protein intake. Right now, I’m actually trying to formulate “rules” for myself.Personalized. I go to WW too. I need to lose weight that I gained largely from prednisone. So, there is some calorie restriction. I’ve lost ten pounds. I only eat sugar as in dessert three times a year: my birthday, Christmas and our anniversary. One portion. It is working out well because I don’t crave it in between. If it’s not one of those days, I simply don’t eat it. The downside is that for several days after one of those days, the cravings are back. I hate that. I look forward to when they leave because it’s freeing. I also am avoiding things with sugar in the first few ingredients. I need to create a strict rule re flour. Working on that. But, I can tell you it is rare for me to have flour now. I also just had to set up a rule of only one fruit a day because I was binging a little on fruit. I eat a moderate amount of meat and a lot of vegetables. Raw and cooked vegetables. My salads are very large. I think rice puts weight on me, so I avoid it. But, I will eat a half of a baked potato now and then. I have greatly reduced dairy. The only thing I eat (dairy) for the most part is feta cheese. I do eat small portions of meat/fish/chicken almost daily. My biggest restrictions right now are sugar and flour. I’m consider limiting my Truvia to one packet a day. Already have cut back. No sugar (of course) I might have a small diet soda at most once a month. I tend to drink water or coffee. And my biggest increase is vegetables , of which I eat many: cooked, raw and sometimes juiced. [/QUOTE]
