    A typical day would be

    Breakfast 40g oats made with water and 1 scoop of diet whey proten
    Lunch 125g sliced beef with a cup of vegatables
    Dinner 1 Chicken breast,cup of broccolli,cup of cauliflour,cup of spinach

    Snacks

    100g of 0% ft free greek yogurt with a handful of strawberries
    Grenade Protien bar
    Handful of almonds

    Sometimes the chicken breast is replaced by steakburger or chickenburger or maybe battered cod

    You need to put that lot into something like myfitnesspal to get macros and calories.

    So what does it say? That's the important part. It's not about specific "good" or "bad" foods, it's about total nutrients.

    This is very simple: if you're not losing weight you're eating too many calories.

    Don't track your exercise. Only track your intake.

    Don't track your exercise. Only track your intake. Keep lowering calories until you lose weight at the desired rate.

    Chew gum.

    If you eat a diet high in fruit, vegetables and lean protein hunger levels should be tolerable.
