The only physical activity I actually like is biking, and I'm screwed because my bike got stolen years ago. Stationary biking is really, really boring; but even if I got a real bike, Santiago is not friendly to biking. Like, at all. There are no bike lanes and the streets are really dangerous because everyone drives like a loon.

I'll save the links. Thank you, Thene. I abhorred the idea of calorie counting... it's strongly associated to EDs in my mind, because I actually know people who make an obsession of it.

As I explained in another comment, I already cook at home! I cook myself all my meals, and you know I'm vegetarian. I make all my stuff from scratch except for the pasta and the bread. (Which sadly are things I really like. Like, I really love pasta to death. It'll be so boring to ditch carbs. This is why I was referring as "rabbit food".) *sigh*

I'm sure there's things other than carbs that you will be happy to do without though!

Calorie counting sets a lot of people off, yeah - it's much like budgeting with money; not everyone who does it is a total miser, others just want to live within their means without stressing too much. It's just information - until you've LOOKED at the math, you often don't even know what's doing the damage. I certainly had a few surprises, eg. the overuse of cooking oil.

As I explained in another comment, I already cook at home! <-- yeah, I was just noting that you will definitely want to keep eating your own food! It just might be slightly different food. You'll probably find a lot of favourite things that aren't at all 'expensive' caloriewise, so you can just emphasise those while moderating the more 'expensive' things. (My major outlay is meat, lol. At least you won't have to worry about that).

ETA: btw, check here before you set a calorie goal: http://www.younglifenorthdekalb.com/fitness/bmr_meal_calculator.php BMR is a good check on whether your calorie goal is too low to be healthy & reasonable.
