FF XIII is the sterotype train . I personally hate if just for that . <| sep |> Google Katy Hearn ' macro calculator and input your information . When you ' re done it ' ll give you how many calories , carbs , protein , and fats you ' re supposed to be consuming . Often people will over eat and also under eat . You want to make sure you ' re giving your body what it needs . Carbs , protein , fats are called macronutrients aka macrosTry those numbers out for a week and see how you feel and your body feels , if you feel like they don ' t do anything then adjust them . Because everyone ' s body is different . You can track your calories , carbs , protein , and fats aka MACROS on an app called Myfitnesspalyou input your food to show you if you ' re meeting your MACROS . Cutting out processed foods OBVIOUSLY works . Adding more vegetables helps a lot ALWAYS . I can ' t say much about the dairy and milk and meat because I ' m vegetarian and that has helped me as well if that ' s another form of nutrition you ' d like to look into . Also , EXERCISE . Not JUST to lose weight or build muscle but for your overall well being . Running or jogging for 30 minutes 3 x a week and weightlifting too . Drink the amount of water you ' re supposed to daily . Also on myfitnesspal you can check your cholesterol , sodium , sugar , vitamins , etc to see if you ' re exceeding or not meeting them . All of this is important Also , don ' t stress it . You ' re forming a habit and there trial and error so don ' t worry if you fall off , just as long as you get back on again and I promise you eating well and exercising will change your life ! Good luck !
