I hate doing cardio so much, but I try to at least do 20-30 minutes of cardio then 45 min of weights 4-5 days out of the week. Also, I diet; no fast food more than once a week, 1500 calories a day (this is so hard for me to reach but I drink protein shakes after my workouts to help), and eating lean meats, vegetables, and fruits. I don't want to be bodybuilder massive, just in shape.

If you work out every day, that's CRAzy unless you need to lose like 100 lbs.
I basically only eat vegetables, fruits and tree nuts. I do eat noodles when I break down though. Sometimes I don't make it over 1000 calories a day, but I lost 65 pounds so far because of it so whatevs. Only drink water and LOTS of it. If you drink water constantly throughout the day your metabolism increases. Just avoid 30 minutes before and after eating. I also do cardio for an hour every other day.
All of you guys eating under 2000 are setting yourself up for disaster. Yeah you'll lose weight at first, but your metabolism will slow down drastically. It will catch up with you in the future, trust me.
I'm recovering from an ED and I'm gaining weight again after losing 70 pounds by starving myself and working out like crazy. It's not fun.

Whoops, I typed that as I was rushing into work this morning. I meant to put *2500 calories, at least. I would die under 2,000 especially with the muscle I need to maintain...

I workout every day because I just really enjoy working out and like my workouts are never full on intense so in order to see results faster I do it everyday unless I'm just tired or sick then obviously I'll give my body a day or two to rest and recover
