Is this diet healthy and good for weight loss? Hello, I want to keep fit and lose weight. I'm still at school, so basically what I do is sit on my bum in class all day, but I do exercise for about 4 - 5 hours a week (and more when I have time). I want to know whether this diet would help me lose weight or not. Breakfast: Banana, orange, low fat yogurt. Sometimes I have cereal. Lunch: School food (usually rice/pasta, meat, vegetables, a piece of cake - the meat and rice have a lot of oil added, so they are really fatty...) and a cup of milk. Dinner: An apple and yogurt. Sometimes with cashew nuts. Please tell whether this is a good diet or not, and if not what changes I should make. Thanks in advance! P.S. Please only answer if you actually KNOW what you are talking about. I asked "Is this diet healthy and good for weight loss", not SHOW ME HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT, so please stop posting links. I live in a boarding school. I cannot eat anything other than school lunch.

Is there a simple vegetarian weight loss diet that would be easy to follow in a college environment? I'll be going to college soon and I am overweight. While most people gain weight when they go to college, I'm nearly ashamed of eating in public so I'm hoping it will be a great opportunity to lose weight. I will probably make breakfast in the morning but my other 2 meals will be from dining halls. I was wondering if anyone knew a good vegetarian diet that would help me lose weight quickly without requiring I go to the grocery store often and buy ridiculous and expensive natural products.

Does this sound like a good diet plan to lose weight? Ok, I am 22 years old...5'8" tall....and I weigh 165 lbs. I want to lose 30 lbs before next summer comes. I don't have the money to pour into these weight loss plans and groups and diet pills and remedies!! I have to do it the old fashion way. So here is the diet I am thinking. Breakfast: 1 orange and a glass of 1% milk Snack: Homemade Fruit Smoothie Lunch: 1 can of Progresso Soup (I love these!!!!) Snack: Cheese Slices with Crackers and lowfat Ranch Dinner: 500 calorie meal Late Night Snack: 1 orange and a glass of 1% milk And if I exercise atleast 30 minutes a day on an eliptical machine. Do you think I can lose 1-2 pounds a week with this diet or am I dreaming? I really want to lose weight but I don't want to have to go to extremes. Please give me your honest opinion. I appreciate all your help and tips. Thanks!!! I see alot of you recommending weight watchers. I need to be able to stick to a dinner that all my family will enjoy. My husband works all day and me and the kids eat different lunches but we all sit down and eat dinner together. It's to much of a hassle to cook 2 different dinners. What kind of food does weight watchers entail. Thanks for all the tips I'm getting!!

How does my weight loss schedule look? am 13 and I am way over weight. I love fruits, its just that my mom works a lot and usually brings home fast foods, and that is why I am overweight today (about 60-100 pounds overweight) I talked to my mom and she agrees to cook healthy meals. I am a very organized person, so I made myself a schedule of how my summer days will be like for the rest of the summer: Wake up Exercise machine –250 calories Breakfast (20 grapes, 1 apple) +150 calories Snack (2 cup lettuce + dressing) +50 calories Exercise machine –150 Early Dinner (whatever my mom makes) - +300-400 calories Exercise machine –300 calories Late Snack (fruit or vegetable of my choice) +50-100 calories Exercise –200 Total: intake: 600 burned:900 LOSS OF 300 CALORIES This I beleive will help me lose weight fast. I know what all of you are thinking, 600 calories is not enough for me, but I usually do not eat that much! To me 1000 calories is a lot without eating fast food . That is not all what I'll be doing in a day, I will also be like watching tv and reading and stuff like that. I will eat meats during dinner. Maybe sometimes breakfast. And I am a GIRL (so I'm a dudette. lol) also, I usually only eat 800 calories a day, so this is just a small step down.

Will this work for temporary, but quick, weight loss? If I have a 16 oz protein shake for breakfast, a 16 oz protein shake for lunch, and a 16 oz protein shake for dinner with a Caesar Salad, will I lose weight? I am not planning on using this long-term. Rather, I am going to try and use it as the detox part of my long-term lifestyle change. The shakes would be homemade. I am thinking it will work, as it is pretty similar to the Slimfast plan, right? I need opinions and/or advice. Thanks. P.S. I have lost 30 pounds in the last 3 months and know it will comeback if I don't make the right changes. As stated before, I am using this as a stepping stone detox period to help develop my self-control. I don't mean detox to cleanse my body, I mean detox to help me with my self-control. I figure if I can have the mindset to do this, then I will be able to make the proper lifestyle changes for the long-term. Also, I am using a very healthy recipe for the shakes and taking the extra vitamins and such needed.

Weight Loss Training and Diet good enough? Hello, a while back I posted a question about how to lose weight, I am slowly losing but surely. I just wanted to check with any health nuts or guru's on how my training and diet are. Training Jog: Not very long but I keep a fast pace. Weight Training: Home Gym: I lift 4 weights that are pretty heavy, I do 2 sets of 20, then work on my calfs and legs with the leg attachment. I do 1 set of 10 lifts on my legs. Then I do 20 sit ups for 3 times and 5 pushups 2 times Diet: Breakfast: Usually some rye toast with cheese on it and a banana or apple with some water or juice. Lunch: Usually a banana, some fruit snacks, a sandwhich and a granola bar. Supper: *Usually I slip up after I come home from school by chowing down on Dorito's I came home today and ate 3 chips before deciding to change and I went out for a jog. But for supper, usually all the foodgroups. Yay or nay? Help me make changes so I can lose weight and eventually work on my abdomin and reach that six pack!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you add to my new weight loss / beauty regimen? I started out at 257 pounds (5"7") on 04/28. I'm now 248 on 05/08. I have been walking on my treadmill 3-4 times a day for 25-30 minutes at different speeds. Sometimes between 2.3-2.9 mph, sometimes just a straight 2.6 mph. Sometimes I swing my 3 pound weights as I stride, other times I just carry 8 or 10 pound weights at my side as I walk on the treadmill. I am having a vanilla Carnation Instant Breakfast in the morning and a meat & veggie Lean Cuisine (no pasta) for lunch. Then a sensible dinner. If we have spaghetti I don't have the garlic bread, if we have tacos I don't put sour cream on it etc.. To help keep my skin from looking like a shar-pei I have been using a Mary Kay granulated buffing cream & netted sponge every time in the shower and then I follow with a Mary Kay anti-aging firming body cream. I tried to find shea butter at Target but the ingredients start out with water and other stuff.... What else can I do to help me lose weight, build muscle and make my butt NOT FLAT?! I have also increased my water consumption tremendously, quite my flavored coffee and started drinking Green Tea. I am using the full line Mary Kay skin care on my face, including the Microdermabrasion so I think my face will be okay :)

How do this Schedule look? (for weight loss)? I am 13 and I am way over weight. I love fruits, its just that my mom works a lot and usually brings home fast foods, and that is why I am overweight today (about 60-100 pounds overweight) I talked to my mom and she agrees to cook healthy meals. I am a very organized person, so I made myself a schedule of how my summer days will be like for the rest of the summer: Wake up Exercise machine –250 calories Breakfast (20 grapes, 1 apple) +150 calories Snack (2 cup lettuce + dressing) +50 calories Exercise machine –150 Early Dinner (whatever my mom makes) - +300-400 calories Exercise machine –300 calories Late Snack (fruit or vegetable of my choice) +50-100 calories Exercise Dance –200 (500 on the screen) Total: intake: 600 burned:900 LOSS OF 300 CALORIES =) This I beleive will help me lose weight fast. I know what all of you are thinking, 600 calories is not enough for me, but I usually do not eat that much! To me 1000 calories is a lot without eating fast food I have an excersize machine that counts how many calories I lose, so I think that is a great thing to help me lose weight! Also when I say excersize dance, I mean DDR (dance dance revolution) That also counts the calories I lose, except it isn't always right. So I believe that 500 calorie loss on that machine is pretty much a 200 calorie loss.

Achieving a weight loss goal? My bestfriend is 15 years old weighing 175lbs. Her goal for going back to school this year is to lose 20lbs and not to be ashamed in a swimming suit. Her diet consists of eating scrambled eggs with bacon for breakfast, skipping lunch, and eating a regular supper. I try to tell her that this isn't safe. She hates excersizing and I told her if she found the right program I would gladly help her. Any suggestions on a good excersize program and a weight loss program, or atleast a safe way to do it?

I went to the doctor and weighed 105 lbs in Early May and later every day at school id skip breakfast and lunch and eat a sandwhich as a snack after school and then dinner. but now the scale says 115 =[ starving obviously does NOT work. but eating the right about of food each meal does help. i cant always count all the calories everyday. but i run on a treadmill for 30 min. once ina while (maybe 5 times a month lately) but im starting to run for an hour each morning on the treadmill (past two days), take a shower, and eat a late breakfast. then i eat dinner and sometimes have a snack b4 that. i cant buy weight loss foods or pills. unless i can use some household pill to help. my mom doesnt know i want to lose weight but she did overhear me on the phoen saying to my friend i think im fat. im a size xs in hollister, and a size 0 in pants. anyway i weigh 115 pounds and i want to lose weight. help me?

Is this considered harmful rapid weight loss? To help treat a liver condition that I have, I was told to lose weight. Through eating mostly vegetables, fiber, fruits, chicken, fish and avoiding potato chips, junk foods, beef/pork I have lost 15 lbs in over 6-7 weeks. I certainly don't starve, I eat an adequate good breakfast and decent lunch and dinner. I do moderate cardio 5-6 times a week for 40 minutes. I know rapid weight loss can worsen your liver if u have problems with it but is this considered rapid weight loss? Is there a point where I have to cut back on the cardio and eat a little bit more to keep my weight from losing? I would also appreciate what would be considered harmful rapid weight loss. Thanks!

Is this is a good weight loss plan for a teenager? I'm 15 years old, 5'5, 121 pounds or 8.8st and I wear a size 8-10. I know my BMI is well within normal range but BMI isn't a reliable indicator of how normal your weight is when you are still growing. I'm quite chubby and the fat isn't spread evenly (I would like to sort out my legs, thighs, stomach and arms). I will be in a bikini for most of summer so I need a good body in about 2 months. Am prepared to put dedication to losing weight and toning up, I want to lose about 10 pounds. I have made a weight loss plan for myself so can people tell me if this is okay and suggest exercises to help tone the areas mentioned above? Plan: Breakfast (6.45am)-glass of tropicana smooth orange juice, a banana Snack(11am)-an apple Lunch(12.40pm)-slice of ham, potato salad, iceberg salad(no dressing or croutons), glass of water and an apple. Snack(5.30pm)-a banana, cup of green tea Supper(6.30pm)-something hot and healthy(nothing too sugary or fatty), glass of water and an apple. I walk briskly for about 40 minutes total each day. I do sport for an hour two times a week, and on days I don't have sport I plan to jog for 30 minutes after dinner or before. I walk dogs for an hour one day each weekend. Should I jog the other day too? I also plan to abide by these rules: Only green tea No white bread No chocolate No fizzy drinks (soda in america) No junk food No cakes, muffins etc. I do need to lose weight, I am very chubby. I don't think the weight statistic is a realiable indication of how the fat looks on me. Also as a toning stomach exercise I'm moving my legs up and down at a 50 degree angle 50 times three times a day.

Lunch: Granola bar, baked chicken, rice, vegetables. Dinner: Spahgetti and meatballs... (no soda only water to drink with it). The above was an example meal plan. During the last 2 weeks, I'll go on the master cleanse. (Also, soda and coffee will be forbidden, only water) Do you think I'll lose 25 pounds or more? Do you have any suggestions... please help!!
