What kinds of diet have you tried?
Weight Watchers "Core Plan", was my first serious diet ever. I lost about 25 lbs from that 1st effort. I tried it a few other times with lesser success. Also tried WW points counting, but that wasn't for me. Then later down the line I was on a dietitian prescribed semi low fat and low carb diet. I lost almost 40 lbs on that, but the eating was not my style so I've resisted going back on it. Since, I occasionally follow a MyFitnessPal recommended diet. It's also lower fat and lowered carb, but not as restrictive. If I truly stay within allowances, I do lose weight. Trouble is it's hard, unless I'm really motivated.

What healthy and low calorie food do you really like?
