Watching your calories is pretty much the same as portion control. If you follow the serving sizes as well as give yourself a daily calorie limit you'll lose weight.

Back when I was 17 I lost around 75 pounds just by watching the number of calories I took in a day. I went from around 260 to 180-190 over the course of a couple of months. Stuff like cutting down the amount of cereal you pour into a bowl, or how much stuff you put on a sandwich really helps.
This was all without exercise too, as I just stayed inside and played Ragnarok Online the entire time LOL. It would have helped immensely if I had exercised though, 'cause I would have built muscle and gotten more energy.

I'd post a before and after, but I don't you'd want to see the former beached whale that was Cello.

Well you also have to burn off more than you eat. I don't exercise. I wish I knew how many calories I burned a day so I could just confine myself to less than that, because I hate exercise lool.

Yeah when I was around 16 I lost 50 pounds but I gained back about 20 from being in college and having unlimited of pretty much whatever I want so now time to diet again. xD

I've gained a lot back as well, seeing as I don't get out much anymore. ;_;
Now that it's summer and I have some yards to take care of, though, that's been helping out a lot. It's giving me more energy to do stuff, so now I'm exercising in addition to dieting.
I've already shed a good two pounds so far.

Nothing like the internet encouraging you to lose weight.

I wouldn't do it though because I can't do stuff like that with other people. My exercise abilities are so low that the things you would have to do would kill me.

You know they say if you snack throughout the day instead of eating 3 full meals you'll be healthier and lose weight faster?
YA I CONFIRM THIS. And it's the worst because I want to gain weight but I love eating and I eat a lot throughout the day but yeah what a dilemma >;((

Life's too short to be starving yourself.. then again, if you're starving yourself you'll be making life even shorter. Screw the whole calorie thing if you're gonna be tormenting yourself over it. As long as you're healthy what's the big deal? I used to fret so much about how much I should be eating but at the end of the day I've learned it's more worth it to me throw my arms in the air and fill my fatty and sweet cravings with some real hot cocoa and some good cheese. Cause why not?

.. getting some now..

I used to worry about eating too much, then I started properly hydrating myself and so when I get a little peckish I have a drink of water and most of the time the hunger is satisfied and voila I don't overeat.

I need to start doing that. That's seriously probably the best way to fight off hunger between or after eating a meal. I suffer that since i'm so used to eating ridiculous/family portion meals.

It's totally a good way. Like right now I'm doing it, although that's because I forgot to bring something with me to eat and I can't get away to get food for a bit. Dx

I'm like Yoshi and follow what Toujours said. I can't eat big meals/a lot of food at once anyways or else I start feeling ill so it's all good. I just eat whenever I feel like eating and when I go out I only tend to eat half of my food and then I eat the other half a little later. Or in however many portions it takes.
