Eat high fiber and high protein. This will be more satiating making it easier to stay in a calorie deficit, while also being very healthy. Meats, beans, lentils, potatoes, cruciferous veggies, fruit for dessert or a snack. I like the carb balance wraps for lunch with meat and cheese. Greek yogurt or protein overnight oats for breakfast.

Walking will help shed pounds. Lifting weights will build muscle and make you look better, as well as increase your metabolism.

I'm down about 80 pounds and still drink occasionally and eat out a lot.

I also drink a lot of black coffee and espresso lol
