Never join a weight loss program that asks you to reduce calories. This reduction in calories is very unhealthy for you as it sets a new set point for your body. Calories are required to fuel your body and when you under eat, your body will slow down your metabolism and cannibalize muscle to meet the calorie intake.
At some point, you can't reduce your calories any more and your metabolism will be very slow. If you repeat this cycle, it will get more and more difficult for your body to loose weight. There is hope you can turn this around following these easy weight loss tips.

Studies show that if you eat 100 grams of protein in one meal would be the best and give your body a big boost in nutrients.
Protein especially essential as we grow older.

Prioritize protein and healthy fat. If you double your protein intake and include healthy fat, your need for carbohydrates will naturally go down.
Eat Closer to the Earth: Remove processed snacks
Eat nuts, vegetables, and fruit. There are so many benefits from the minerals and nutrients found in these whole foods.
When eating protein make sure it comes from an animal or plant source and not a processed source.
On this note, supplement with a protein shake or protein bar when necessary but check the ingredients. A lot of protein powders have unhealthy ingredients. A lot of protein bars have far more sugar and not a lot of protein.
