Default Re: tl;dr? health/weight loss help?

Yeah, Arch's tip is one of the best there is. You don't need to count calories if you prepare meals by volume in containers or cups or however you want to do it. I would just set up a reasonable amount of food across your regular number of meals that is similar to whatever you're already eating, but slightly smaller in portion size so that you're a bit hungry in the evenings.

If you're losing weight too quickly add to your portions, if you're losing weight too slowly or not losing weight cut back.

Keeps everything simple and avoids meticulous counting and is, IMO, more effective since most people track calories incorrectly anyway / their TDEE is wrong.
