I'm still learning the in's and outs of all aspects of the diet but I lost a fair bit of weight without even trying all through the magical power of fibre. Will make you feel fuller, fuller for longer and has health benefits to digestive system. As a side you'll find foods higher in fibre are slower burning and have a low rating on the glycemic index.

Looking and what you normally eat there is not an overwhelming ammount of fibre in the diet. Should be hitting at least 24g of fibre per day. Put in perspective a half a pizza will have about 4g (rough guess). I found just trying to hit the 24g a day made me eat better because it's mainly found in healthy foods.

If you can start eating brown breads, brown rice, veg, wholemeal pasta and you'll soon get it up. But easiest way to get in the full ammount would be your breakfast. All Bran is excellent. 2 small bowls a day or 1 big bowl will get you the minimum ammount of fibre you need.

Will let the others educate you on protein, fats and carbs
