My diet! Big Breakfast and 1 meal during the day. Do not eat 5 hours before sleep time.
I start the day with a good breakfast, egg whites with cheese, turkey bacon or avocado, mayonnaise and hot sauce, on whole wheat bread, coffee with creamer (fat free) and 1 t/s organic sugar, or, oatmeal and cereal. A light lunch or dinner. Another coffee during the day and 2 or 3 cups of waters. No exercise until April (no time). The trick is to stop eating 5 hours before sleeping. Don't get me wrong sometimes I screw up my schedule, sometimes I eat cookies but no milk. Milk stays in my system longer and makes me weigh heavier the next day. I believe eating before sleeping is bad since my metabolism is slow and at night it stores fat making it difficult to lose weight. I rather be hungry in the morning than at night. I'm an active person but that's after April, I usaully workout 3 times a week and run once or twice at the park. I like cardio with weights and Crossfit style exercises.

The trick is to, not to eat before sleeping. Set your alarm to 5 hours before sleep time, to alert you to eat something or stop eating. No soda, no fast foods, no beers until bbq season, no juices, fat free choices if it taste good, minimum meats (since it takes longer to process) but still need your protein, I do love my rice. I need to incorporate fruits or vitamins. I'm a family man so if everyone is informed of your dietnchanges is very helpful.

Keep in mind that my goal is to lose 15 pounds, so if your goal is higher, exercise is a must. Anything cardio combined with weights. For example: air squats, jump rope, squats with weights, jump box, then some running or walking, or, pushups, chin ups, crunches, curls, kettle bells swings, shrugs and more running or walking. Anything to keep your heart rate up.

The difference in my diet comparing it to before, I never ate breakfast, had a heavy lunch or no lunch at all, just bread and coffee and since I was hungry at night I had a heavy dinner, about an hour or two before sleeping. No bueno, for my slow ass metabolism.

TRY IT! it might work for you.
