I calorie count and that's about it. I've found that I've adjusted what I will eat based on this. So I know that I can eat more fruits and veges and I will. While I can't eat that cup full of Mac n cheese that I so desperately want, because it just won't fill me up.

Yes, this seems to be what I am heading towards. I suppose most of what I eat tends to be low GI, when I look at it, and I always like to have protein with my meals as it fills me up. I find some things that are supposed to fill me up just don't - whoelmeal pasta, for example - so I just avoid those.

Mostly just calorie counting here, and using MyFitnessPal to keep accountable and check nutritional levels, fiber, protein/fat/carb proportions etc. Meat as a condiment with lots of veggies (homemade soup works well here for me). Things that are already portioned out, because I'm busy with work plus 3 other people in the family to cook for, who eat all differently...so I do like Fiber One bars, popsicles, yogurts - and of course apples and grapefruits (natural portion control!)

Oh, and I try to walk or run/walk 3-4 times a week, at least. I was a dedicated runner a few years ago and am easing back into what I can do as a slightly arthritic 49 year old (which is a surprising lot, really)...

Calorie counting is pretty much it! I do try to get fruits and veg in there, because I know if I wasn't mindful of that it'd be carbs all day long.

I only really count calories, but I keep a casual eye on fat and carbs via MyFitnessPal, just to make sure neither ends up at obscene levels.

I only calorie count, I think that if I try to count too many things I will get tired of it and just won't count anything. I do try to eat foods that are lower in sodium just because I don't want the water retention. But basically, I eat whatever as long as it's within my range.

It's really helpful to see the various calorie counting diets. As I said, my diet is pretty strict and limited but it works for me. However, I know my daughter can't follow a strict plan so I'm happy to see many doing well on a more causal plan.

Keep on truckin' everyone!

I calorie count but I am mindful of protien, fiber and sodium but my fitness pal keeps up with it so I just attempt to meat those goals.

I do Weight Watchers and also keep track of my calories on My Fitness Pal.
I don't count carbs or anything else, just calories and points.

High protein, high fat. I'm toying with the idea of going Paleo or maybe Paleo + dairy, while still tracking overall calories.

I did primal eating for a while, then I went the total opposite direction and became a vegetarian lol. A great primal/paleo resource is Mark Sisson's website/forum, marksdailyapple.com

I just started calorie counting and it has truly opened my eyes to how much I was eating ( I mean over eating). I have found measuring my food and counting great. It feels satisfying to know exactly what and how much I am eating. I am focusing on trying to include as many healthy foods into my day as possible. I feel good enough that I am eating about 200 calories below my goal per day. I think the "good" foods are very filling and satisfying, but there is no denying that my sugar tooth calls to me late at night!

So far just calorie counting and it is working well. May start watching the carbs to not sure tho. I haven't been at this long.

I get the crazy hunger with pregnancy and have gained 80 pounds with each of my first three pregnancies-and lost the weight after each one. I'm currently working on my fourth journey down the scales, older and wiser about food choices and exercise, BUT...

The first couple times were strictly calorie counting smaller amounts of unhealthy food and no exercise. I'm sure I was starving! Ha! One Taco Bell burrito, grilled cheese, lean cuisine. Subway was eaten a lot. It can be done.

That is sooo impressive! I'm simply amazed!!!
