Portion yourself to 5 small meals a day that includes snacks (Cliff bars, not potato chips) and two larger meals out of the 5 (chicken & asparagus is my favorite, especially grilled). Don't just eat healthy, you have to exercise with it to keep up with your body changing otherwise you will have loose skin and you will look nasty. I recommend weight training as that will keep your skin tight and you will feel confident in yourself at the beach. Other than that just portion yourself, eat only a little bit & wait 20 minutes to let it kick in, I promise you will feel full as you need to let your stomach shrink. Good luck, I went from 230 to 155 in about 1 year, its easily possible. Currently im 160, 6 foot, and run everyday, swim, and weight train. Its all about the committment and thinking to yourself "I cannot wait to see my results in a month" because it really does pay off. Good luck man and if you have any questions PM me!
