What is good food to eat and not to eat when losing weight?

fruits and vegtables, lean meats (chicken, fish, etc.)

Avoid Fried foods and/or foods high in sugar (desserts, soda,etc.)

Eat smaller meals (at least 4 a day)

No junk food
No take away
No greasy food (fried etc)
No soft drink
No snacks/sweets

Walk everywhere and get regular exercise. After a few months you won't miss eating junk food at all. I'm not overweight, but I stopped eating junk food and soft drink to stay healthy and now I can't stand the taste of them. Soft drink is seriously disgusting once you get off it. You can taste all the artificial crap in coke.

All the above = WIN

Become an alcoholic, I swear I lost like 20 pounds in a couple months when I drank like crazy. lol

But seriously, don't do that, drinking is bad. >_>

I would just stay away from high calorie stuff, fatty stuff, the usual. Try to eat lots of veggies and fruits. I'm no expert on the subject but I think it's pretty obvious right off the bat what stuff should be avoided.

This dude is 100% right. I just tried some Coca-Cola after a year of not having any and it's just horrible. I don't know why I drank so much of it a few years ago.

But in all seriousness, it doesn't always matter what you eat as long as you exercise. Drink plenty of water and eat a lot of fruits and vegetables but aside from that, you can eat anything you want to.

I used to do that when I played soccer/football a lot. I was really tone and slim, but as soon as I stopped playing soccer, I started gaining weight, although my diet remained the same.

Have: salad;

Avoid: cake.

:P

No no;

What he said, only eat twice as much veggies, fruit, and meat as normal, drop all carbohydrates and sugars, and eat more frequently. No soda at all - not even diet - goes a long way.

Well I used to Weigh something around 270 this time last year. Was frigging rediculous. So I just Started eating less crap, and excersising more and I'm now about 196, since a couple months ago. Ive gotte n a bit complacent with it recently, so Ive slackened off, and I'm gonna keep working on it till I'm like 175 . But this s how I did it. Complicated, but worth it, and its not following some awful fad diet either..

First off, Find your BMR (Basal Metabolic rate), which is how any calories a day your body burns naturally, through breathing and heartbeats etc, then eat less amount of calories than that a day. To put on or burn a pound, you must eat, or burn off around 3500 calories respectively. Therefore, having a total calorie intake of 500 calories LESS than your BMR, a day, will result in one pound lost in a week (500 x 7 = 3500 calories burnt off = a pound.), so 1000 calories less than your BMR a day = 2 pounds lost per week. Etc etc.

Longest post I've ever written I think, haha.
