"Lo que" is "what" or "the thing that" in English...
That's what I mean - Eso es lo que quiero decir.
I saw what you did - Vi lo que hiciste.
Did you find what you were looking for? - Encontraste lo que buscabas?
.....I hope that this has helped.

"lo" is a pronoun that is replacing something and "que" in this case would translate to "that"
Por ejemplo:
No preguntes lo que tu pais puede hacer por ti, preguntate que puedes hacer tu por tu pais.
Don't ask what your country can do for you, ask yourself what can you do for your country.
