to make things easy and not look at numbers and wonder why immediate results aren't taking place and to condition the hunger pangs. is simple. begin to consume vegetables raw, if at first you are "wanting" some dressing like mayo types use less than a tspoon. beans rinsed cooked or raw, nuts and grains raw nothing added or very tini amount of oil. couple of ounces of fish with it works great. you change vegies and rotate them all giving you a couple of large bowls a day. and for breakfast a sugarless cerial like shredded wheat with raisins nuts and a couple of drops of milk. you'll find that in a month you'll begin to see a dramatic change in not being hungry between eating that. basically eating nuts fruits and grains and vegetable with very small meat protein, by the way theres plenty of protein in the vegies and beans, will satisfy your body's need to fuel, and build. just get away from ranch and mayo and sugar and salt, no sodas, beer or daily alcoholic drinks. rarely eat breads for a while. don't drink gallons of water daily. if in the evening your wanting a snack. something like micro'd apples mixed with oatmeal will be a big thing. and if you can do this you'll drop weight and fat with it. working out and not alot will keep you trim. you might start to realize that the lack a fatty meats is a good result.
