Ok, he had more to say than that. He gave me some information (a diet plan for diabetics, although I'm not), talked to me about the different types of foods I could eat and suggested I keep a food diary. I also asked about whether it's healthy for me to be a vegetarian. He told me it was perfectly fine as long as I was getting my B12 and D vitamins.
But the basic summary was eat less and eat healthier. I knew that, but at least now I have a better idea of what types of things I should cut out an what's a safe calorie intake for me if I want to lose weight quickly.
Final ruling: Less food, less weight.
