Skip that.
I love the fat on a juicy steak. I do, however, prefer lean hamburgers, turkey, bison or Kobe.
I don’t mix proteins such as cheese in my omelet. Gross and I also don’t care for pizza with any meats. All veggies and a super crisp crust, otherwise I just knock off all the goodies and eat them, tossing the crust, which I rarely like.
White bread? Can’t stand the taste, except if there is a ton of peanut butter and jelly on it but, I don’t buy white bread.
Whole wheat everything is best.
Eat 2-3 things at a meal. Protein, Starch(red potatoes are excellent, sweet and don’t require butter - hate Idaho or baking potatoes and will only eat the skin) and veggies or fruit.
If you are going to junk out then that counts as a meal or even two. You are done for the day. Big bowl of popcorn with a stick of butter? two meals.
Milkshake? 300 calories and counts as a meal.
Eat tons of veggies. They fill you up, are delicious, chock full of vitamins and minerals and H20, which we all need.

Avoid carbs, especially corn and products thereof. Whole wheat is no good either. Throw out the margarine and bring on the real butter. Drink whole milk, not 2%, not skim. Never buy "fat free" anything because they take out the fat and re-thicken with corn starch. Following the above diet I lost 108 pounds in seven months.
