Your efforts for losing weight are going to give you wonderful long term results. People who eat fewer calories on a daily basis compared to people to eat too many, are living longer and healthier throughout their lives.
Just compare your body to a truck. If everyday, you are putting a ton of stuff (tens of pounds of fat for your body) in your truck, not only will it get wear and tear faster(arthritis, muscle and back problems), but it will need maintenance more frequently (heart, circulatory problems, massage and exercise).
You want to make sure that you never go below your basic metabolic rate level of daily calories intake(between 1200-1600 per day).
-Make sure your breakfast is a good size meal for you with at least 15 grams of proteins
-Don't go more than 4-5 hours without eating anything (want to avoid blood sugar lows and highs)
-Eat your real foods meal for breakfast and lunch, and have your shakes for dinner
-Never go to bed feeling hungry
-Finish exercising or yoga 20-30 minutes before your meal, you may tend to eat less
-Do breathing exercises when you feel low energy and then drink water.
-Do not forget to drink 2 liters of pure water daily, and any other drinks on top of that if you are still thirsty
-Always make sure you have a small portion of fat and or protein with your snack to have the satiety effect last longer
-Enjoy your favorite foods once in a while even though it is not low GI in small servings.
AND HAVE FUN! )
