this is what i posted on my thread but it includes some tips and stuff that i did to lose 6kg (:
I've been on a 1200kcl "diet", I cut out added sugar, and use minimum amount of salt if needed, eat rye bread and only use wholegrain rice / pasta / bread etc instead of norm. For snacks I get a 0.1% yogurt or quark, and fruits like bananas, grapes, and apples. Eat berries, and oatmeal for breakfast, and drink LOTS and LOTS of water per day. For dinner, I usually make either salmon, or chicken. I cut out red meat completely. I could eat chicken in things like low calorie risotto, or with 4% cream and vegetables. With salmon I usually eat 1 and a half potato. If I eat bread, I usually add one slice of cheese, and two slices of tomato. Other good foods are things like, green beans, "viili" or greek yogurt (natural) and to make it taste better, add for example bananas (: To bring more taste to chicken i usually use curry. I also like Vitalinea, it's a bit sweeter drinkable yogurt, that has no added sugar. Also eat a lot of salads, either with salmon or chicken!
I use myfitnesspal to make sure i stay in the calorie deficit and can easily track what i eat and how much my exercise burns calories.
or for example:
chicken + wholegrain rice + corn, paprika, peas, tomatoes, a slice of low fat cheese and a pepper = easy stuffed peppers
I have recently added drinking 1 table spoon of apple cider vinegar mixed with 2,5dl of water, before meals (it helps with bloating)
Also eggs are my best friend, I always boil them or make them in extra virgin olive oil!
I do have cheat meals, usually rye chips and dip, or Subway wholegrain bread. I have cheat days once in two weeks, but it's ok to have one every week if it's more sustainable
I walk 10 000 steps per day (not necessarily at once tho lol, and it's not as bad as it sounds, i like walking) and then do chloe ting beginner friendly workouts. I have about 2 active rest days <3 This is easy if you walk into store, or walk your dog, etc. instead of going to the store with a car. For me, walking to the store is 2000 steps, and if I go to the store at my city's center, it's usually 10 000 steps altogether.
If I'm graving something sweet, I'll eat Halo top ice cream. (not the whole pot tho)
It's low in calories compared to normal ice cream.
also if u wanna like, join me with my journey we could be pals and do workouts together and keep track and post results? It could help with motivation (: also another thing that would help could be watching results videos, and health related stuff that have tips etc. I follow body positivity tiktoks to keep my mind on track too
