I have been trying to lose weight for some time, eating less and walking more. Surgeries in the past have not been kind to me but after letting myself go I want to get healthier. I started skipping breakfast because I assumed less calories means less weight right? But my family and friends criticize me. I looked online too and I see different answers. Any help pls?

Hi @becomingbetter

How are you today?

Its tough to look online for things about diet, there are studies that prove everything is both good and bad. I think everyone is different, so I wouldn't take everything your family/friends say to heart. The best thing you can do is to ask your doctor/nutritionist what is the best thing for you and your body type. I think eating less and walking more can be a healthy combination.

Let me tag a few other members who may have experience to share with you.

Do you eat breakfast? Have you lost weight? What did you doctor tell you to do?

Take care,

Lizzi

Don't skip breakfast, you can lower your intake of breakfast.
