Answer 1

Sounds great to me. Keep in mind u shud have no more than 300 calories per meal, n good u kno that lunch shud b a little less n breakfast n dinner a little more. GREAT that ur running, best exercise to tone everything n look n feel great. Make sure u eat a piece of fruit or suttin RELE light an hour or so b4 dinner and after dinner. It helps keep ur metabolism runnin. The 300 crunches however might make u bulky. Try Core Secrets so u can work every muscle. Its important to do a little weight lifting, so check that out. Ur doin fine though BEST OF LUCK! Only a cuple weeks left!! <333

Nothing works equally for everyone. I have listed below, some of my own methods. Only you know how your body works, so you will need to design your own plan. But, one fo the most important things to remember: DO NOT USE THE WORD DIET. You will be automatically telling your brain that you are depriving yourself and will only increase your desire to eat. 1. Cut back on daily calorie and carb intake. (My weakness was the carbs. The more I ate the more I craved.) 2. Don't completely deny yourself of a favorite, not-so-good-for-you food, you will only want it more. 3. Limit meal portions. Eat several small meals a day verses 3 large meals, with small snacks in between. Giving your stomach something every 2-3 hours will increase your metabolism (fat-burner, converts food into energy). 4. Slow down when you eat. Most people eat so fast that they do not give the food a chance to reach the stomach to send signals to the brain that you are full. 5. Increase your daily activity, if even the slightest. Throw in a walk down the block and back, or a walk around your house or office building. Make it simple, and then gradually increase activity time. 6. Don't have unrealistic expectations. Slow and steady weight loss is easier to maintain than rapid weightloss. 7. Don't get locked on a number for your ideal weight. The way your clothes fit and how you see yourself in the mirror is a better truth teller than any scale. If you do over indulge (kind of hard not to with the holidays coming up), cut back a bit for a day or two. 8. Don't ever forget, You Are Beautiful. ♥

Answer 3

I would suggest some changes, but you've got the general idea.

1. Instead of running 1 mile, run for a certain length of time. Maybe 15 minutes if you are starting out, working up to 30-45 minutes, 4-5 times a week.

2. 3 pounds per week is a bit fast - you might lose that your first week or two, but not consistently over time.

3. You aren't eating enough. You are still growing, and your body needs a constant energy suppy. You could train your body to starve, and when you return to normal eating, your body will prepare for your next diet by storing as much energy as it can - as fat on your hips, legs, and tummy. In addition, you could harm your growth - you never know when your body wants to grow, and you could damage yourself by starving at the wrong time.

It's better to keep a food diary, and use it to learn what foods are good and bad, how to cook, and what a real 'serving' of food should be. You don't always realize how much you eat, but you notice when your jeans don't fit. Writing everything down helps you stay focused, and eat less junk food.

Answer 4

Most doctors would tell you that you are not consuming enough calories to build your metabolism up to burn. Too much dairy is in your diet as well....TRY THESE SUGGESTIONS....

Breakfast-Special K & Skim Milk...or 2 meduim eggs cooked anyway(do not use cheese or butter) & 1 piece of toast

Lunch-8oz of salad(include tomatoes, cucumbers, alfalfa sprouts, salad greens, & uncooked spinach) + 4 oz of either Tuna(packed in water only) or Grilled/Boiled Chicken...use a spray on dressing

Dinner-either the same as lunch...OR.....4 oz of cooked veggies(squash or broccoli or cauliflower) with 4oz of lean meat(chicken, tuna, or beef)+ 1 piece of toast

Drink no MORE than 120 oz water daily, BUT no LESS than 90 oz. You may use Crystal Light once a day.

NO SUGAR, use splenda...if you must use salt, try sea salt...use MRS. DASH to season everything you eat.

DRESSINGS-Spray on...or make up the Good Seasons, and use apple cidar vinegar instead of white.

BUTTER-use I can't believe it's not butter-spray

Use Olive oil Pam to spray your pans when cooking

Take a good multivitamin & B6 & B12

***Remember ONE thing....MUSCLE WEIGHS MORE THAN FAT!!!! Sp while you are working out, if the scale goes up, check your clothes, if they are looser, then you will know you are gaining muscle.

Depending on your height, you may not look right at 110lbs. This diet that Iisted above is one that I have used for quite a while, and I used to be a personal trainer.

Answer 5

That sounds like a really good plan! If after the first week you aren't losing as much as you'd like to, try increasing the distance that you're running by a half mile or so, and eat smaller portions, and that should help. Good luck!

Answer 6

An omelet with cheese sounds like it would be more then 200 calories unless of course you are eating 1 egg and a small amount of light cheese.. Lunchtime should include real food. There is no replacement for real food.

Where are all the whole grains, fruits and veggies??

Answer 7

See this site below for lots of different tips on losing weight like sleep, sunlight etc. Also do not drink shake. It is not food but a man-made chemical monstrosity.

Answer 8

15lbs is a lot to lose but it looks like you'll be staying healthy...you also have to remember...with working out you'll get muscle...which weighs more than fat.. so if you don't quite make it to 110, its because your quadriceps and calves...abs..have all become stronger. you also have to consider water weight, which could be up to 3lbs. but make sure you're hydrated. even after you're 5 weeks of working out keep it up. you'll be toned and look great! good luck!
