Yes it is enough.
If you eat about 1200 calories a day.
for example
Morning: a piece of toast and a little cheese (20grms.)
Snack: an apple
Lunch: 200 grms cooked! vegetables 100 - 150 grms. chicken or other meat or fish (grilled or boiled), some salad (homemade dressing, no oil)
Snack: another piece of fruit
Dinner: one piece of bread and some cheese or an egg

Drink plenty of water and avoid fat and sugar

I did this and I lost 9 kg in one month

When the body gets used to the smaller amount of food, loosing weight slows down, but you will still loose.

When you follow this plan, you will stay healthy.

Try to exercise as well, but not too much, as you might have sugar cravings.

In any case you should check if you are healthy before you start any kind of diet.

If you are not sure you should talk to your family doctor.

Hope this helps.

It is possible, I've done it. But it does take dedication. The most important thing is portion control - take careful note of serving sizes! Try eating off smaller plates and eating slower so you will eat less. Be sure to eat more veggies and fruits and smaller portions of red meats. At the time, I saw a nutritionist and she said that any type of food that had more than 9% of its calories from fat was something I should only eat a very very small amount of.

Don't completely cut out anything or you will fail and end up binging. The point is not to deprive yourself or stave yourself, it's about making better and healthier choices.

Also exercise! I started out walking 15 min a day and after the first week bumped it up to 20, then 30, etc. The increase in length of time will keep your metabolism from getting stuck for too long in a plateau. You should try and exercise every day but skipping a day here and there is ok just try not to skip two in a row because it makes it a hundred times harder to start back into that routine, trust me!

Good luck!! :)

Diets work but if you have a problem with emotional eating it will destory your diet everytime if you are not aware of it. Here are some tips to help your success:

The holidays can be stressful... and unfortunately, many people reach for food as comfort. If you find yourself regularly eating in response to stress, anxiety, sadness, boredom, anger, loneliness, relationship problems, or poor self-esteem, try to break the habit with some of my strategies below.

Learn to recognize your hunger. Before you automatically pop something into your mouth, rate your hunger on a scale of 1 to 5 -- 1 being ravenous and 5 being full. Make every effort to avoid eating when your hunger is a 4 or a 5.

Find alternatives to eating. Make a personal list of activities you can do instead of eating. Perhaps go for a walk, call a friend, listen to music, take a hot shower/bath, exercise, clean your house, polish your nails, surf the Internet, schedule outstanding appointments, watch television, look through a photo album, etc.

Keep a food journal. Logging your food will help to identify your toughest timeframes. It also will make you accountable... so perhaps you'll be less apt to reach for unnecessary food.

Three-food interference. Make the commitment to first eat three specific healthy foods before starting on caloric comfort foods (i.e., an apple, handful of baby carrots and a yogurt). If after that, you still want to continue with your comfort foods, give yourself permission. However, most of the time, the three foods are enough to stop you from moving on.

Exercise regularly. Daily exercise relieves stress and puts you in a positive mindset, which provides greater strength to pass on the unhealthy fare.

Get enough sleep. Research shows that sleep deprivation can increase hunger by decreasing Leptin levels, the appetite regulating hormone that signals fullness. With adequate sleep, you'll also be less tired and have more resolve to fight off the urge to grab foods for comfort.

Good carbs like celery and carrots will never make you fat. Bad carbs like cake will, but you don't need to know the whole science of glycemic index and load. It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way we have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle.

Find out about fastest way to lose weight, gradual ways to lose weight, most effective exercise, good and bad carbs and anti-water. Lose bodyfat and retained water which also makes you a lot fatter (bloated). Links page has gov. BMI calculater to find out just how much overweight you are (teens plug in your age to compare to others your age). Get latest info like American Heart Association does not want you to eat more than 6 ounces daily of meat, fish or poultry. Most important-- make sure to read the last "fat loss tip", first before anything else, to see the number one food that causes Americans to be fat.

My mom has lost 40 in about 5 months but she drinks nothing but water, measures her food, watches calorie counts and exercises on the treadmill 3 hours a day. It is possible if you really try. I have heard that drinking 8-10 8 oz glasses of water a day helps more than anything...(probably because you walk back and forth from the bathroom every 15 minutes LOL)..Good luck.

If you are serious about losing weight, the calories in the food you eat should be less than the energy you use. You will have to increase your metabolic rate , and plan your diet carefully. Formulate your own weight loss plan and you will lose weight faster. More details available at http://tinyurl.com/m7ckx

completely regularly occurring. My son lost his hair approximately that element whilst he grew to become right into a toddler. My daughter lost some hair yet not as much as my son did. I took my son to the wellbeing practitioner as i did not comprehend better, as then i grew to become right into a well-known time mom, the wellbeing practitioner checked his hair and mentioned he can see new hair in the follicles and the hair it is falling out grew to become into only all the way down to hormones. He checked the hairs have been falling out thoroughly ie with the inspiration. do not issue your self over this. the toddler would have distinctive lenght hairs yet quickly the toddler could have greater hair. regularly at toddler age the hair incredibly starts to thicken.
