What I mean by processed foods is, eggs come from chickens, apples grow on trees, so where did your poptart come from? If your answer is Aisle 7, then THAT is what I mean by processed food. You need to start incorporating more lean protein (skinless chicken), vegetables, fruits, and water. No more overindulging in cookies, cake, fruit snacks, those fake 'jam packed with good-for-you' supposed 'healthy' cereal bars, etc. Soda is a killer, and you need to slowly wean yourself from it. I'm telling you. Would you rather eat all of that and feel like crap at the end of the day, or would your rather do good for your body by providing it with nutrients and feel great? You know that saying "You are what you eat"? Well, it's true!
- I can't tell you what to do in terms of exercise because I don't know what you like. I personally prefer the treadmill and the stationary bike, but you might like something else. You really do have to go to the gym and try out what you like. I know that this wasn't the answer that you were looking for in terms of exercise, but only you know what you like.
And the person who suggested drinking chocolate milk when you feel hungry was wrong about that. You should eat things like fruits and vegetables when you feel hungry in between meals, not sugary beverages. NOT that milk is bad for you, but come on, CHOCOLATE milk..?
This is what you need to start eating:
- Salad (forget the high fat Ranch dressing that you're used to).
- Lean protein.
- Fruits.
- Vegetables.
- Whole grains.
- Water!
- An idea for breakfast in the morning:
Lowfat plain yogurt (packed with protein), fruit, almonds (healthy fats).
You could eat a diet that consisted of a ton of junk food and could amount to 1,200 calories (for example), or you could eat things like what I mentioned above, that would also amount to 1,200 as well. The difference between the two, is that the healthy diet has nutrients that nourish your body, but the junk food diet has no nutrients and does nothing for you.

You should eat fruits and veggies, of course. And just don't eat too much junk food or fattening foods. Well, depending on how much weight you want to lose, it may be possible to lose it in 3 months.
