I need to start working out, but some diet modifications allowed me to lose over 10lbs in 2 weeks. It's startling how much diet actually affects weight, and I ate better than a majority of americans as it was. I cut out a greater portion of means. I eat more plant based foods now. And the meat I do eat, I eat in even lesser portions than I did before. I didn't eat a lot of snack foods before either, but even less now. If I want an even snack now, I toss together some pickled beets, pickled cucumbers, and some olives. Maybe a couple small slices of smoked gouda or sharp cheddar, and/or some almonds. You will find that as time goes on, you body actually becomes satisfied with smaller portions. So you will eat less, but not feel hungry.
Keep up the good work man.
