    Looks like you very easily pinpointed the area that you need to work on, which is great cos now all you need to do is fix it.

    Ideally you should
    *Read the stickies at the top of the forum about health and nutrition. There is plenty of excellent information in there about what foods you should be eating.
    *Find out how many kcals you should be consuming for weightloss. (Easy formula is bodyweight in lb x 12
    *Set up an account with myfitnesspal so that you are aware of how many kcals you are eating daily.
    *Make sure you are getting enough protein. Generally at least 1g per lb bodyweight is advised.
    * Stick at it!!!

    Best of luck!:)

    (EDIT: If your diet is full of meat, fish, eggs, vegetables, fruit and some nuts..well then you've got a fairly good base to play with!)

    When you are eating,lay it out for us - warts and all. Its not even a case of eating the wrong stuff- you are easting too much

    The stickies will be great, change the food you eat and find out how many cals you are eating now and how many you should be - dont have to follow it to a tee.

    If your diet is whole actual foods, it will be very hard to do the dog on it
