I went on a radical eating change! I have dropped my carb(bread/pasta/rice) intake down to one serving a day. I no longer eat meat (except 1-2 a week) but I do have an egg a day. I also don't include dairy in my diet. I do however eat all the fruits, veggies, and seeds/nuts I want. Example of what I eat (what I had yesterday) ...
Breakfast: One egg (anyway I want it - usually scrambled with seasoning/salsa/spinach/etc) scrambled with fresh spinach in it
A handful of fresh strawberries (or baby carrots)
Snack ~ apple and a handful of cashews (sunflower seeds/nuts/apples/bananas)
Lunch ~ black bean salad (currently my favorite ~ in it /corn/black beans/tomatoes/lettuce)
Snack ~ 1/2 if a cold papaya(anything like the first snack)
Dinner ~ grilled tofu wrapped in nutritional yeast and onions, grilled yam, grilled corn on the cob, spinach leaves(fresh) w/salad dressing
And to drink, all day, WATER!
After a week of eating this way I treat myself to a meal off. I usually eat meat. There have been a couple times instead of a meal off I would have an ice cream cone.
I have been doing this since January and have seen dramatic weight loss. I do walk 5 days a week for roughly 25 minutes, sometimes longer.

Good Luck SS it is always hard to get started with any eating changes.
