now, my plates are all 50% greens. GREENS. corn isnt green, neither are mash potatoes.
then a carb, like brown rice..and a tiny bit of meat when i eat meat. when i quit meat on weekdays, the weight came off very fast.

weekends i maintain portion control, but i kinda eat what i want. it placates my inner fat guy.

During my time as a personal trainer, most peoples biggest failure point I seen was diet discipline. Clients would come in and work there asses off, but id never see their body composition change. When I'd start grilling them on their eating habits, all the skeletons would come out of the closet.
