What should a 23 year old female eat daily?

This forum is not a place for specific answers. You probably need more help than can be provided by most at this time and in the place. Fried foods (when done properly) are not as bad as you would think… As a note fast food restaurants do not fry properly, they fry for speed using things that are frozen.

If you are looking to lose weight by diet alone then the easiest thing to do is create a food log and note everything you eat and the calories that they are. You can find books to give you the calories on an apple etc. If you are in the US most restaurants will provide you with the nutritional information of their food upon request. I believe that the FDA requires this. After a week long log, figure out yoru daily caloric totals and knock about 300 calories off a day. Through 7 days that is 2100 calories or about a pound a week. Best of luck, though I didn’t really answer your question. Email me if you need mroe information.
