What are the 10 do's and don't's so I can get back on track?

[Delajuana 2]

I had to have my portal replaced three days ago. Apparently I had no restriction for over two years and did not pay attention due to personal tradegies. I lost my husband to stomach cancer and my father to pancreatic cancer almost to the day the next month. I've neglected my health and I need to get back on track before my next visit for a fill.

I have been watching what I eat and excercise about thirty minus Mon-Friday. Saturday and Sunday about two hours. I belong to a fitness club and enjoy it.

Please help, all responses would be appreciated!

I am so incredibly sorry for your losses ((hugs))

I can only offer tips based on what works for me, but maybe they can help you too. My "biggies" for losing weight and staying on track are:

1. Tracking and logging the calories for every piece of food I put in my mouth. It's the only way I can be certain I'm not going over my daily calorie allowance and it also holds me accountable to what I eat.
   
2. Never eating more than a cup of food per meal
   
3. Eating at least 60g of Protein a day
   
4. Drinking TONS of Water. I sip either Water or green tea pretty much all day long.
   
5. I don't eat if I'm not physically hungry, even if that means skipping a meal or eating at weird times.
   

Best wishes to you, you can do this!
