Use a food journal and keep track of the calories and nutrients you eat.  A 1500 calorie a day plan is a good one.  These links will give you all the help you need.

Answer 2

Read the nutrition labels before you eat whatever you're eating and write down the number of calories. If you're eating something without a label (like an apple or something) go to www.calorieking.com and type it in.

Good luck!
