my biggest problem is this.. what do I eat?? I've gotten so used to eating fast food crap I don't even know where to begin on a healthy diet.


btw where do I get one of those cool things in my sig
OD knows his stuff!

For starters drink a ton of water. Shoot for a gallon a day if you can.

Lots of healthy meats- turkey and chicken breast, lean ham, lean ground beef, etc.

No fried foods, ditch the sweets/junk food.

Whole wheat bread instead of whites.

No transfats....those are some of the basics.

Ideally eat some smaller meals instead of 2 big ones like a lot of people do.

Consider chewing your food slower/taking longer to eat. Prevents you from overeating.
