Answer 1

You have the right idea.

If you really want to shed the weight, cut out all the fruit and NEVER drink juice, even if it's 100% juice as there is just too much sugar in it. And the 15oz of milk is extreme; even if it's skim.

The calories look a tid bit low. Have you added them up? You should take in a minimum of 1800 cals.

The first things you want to eliminate from what you eat are: sugar, fried foods, and white flour. You want to eat as natural and unprocessed food as possible.

Sugar, anything with it is bad. From Coco-Crispies cereal, nearly all sodas, to a small bag a M&M's. All turn into body fat fairly quickly.

Fried foods. Chips, french fries, etc. All have very high levels of calories and fat. Cut out mayonaisse while you're at it.

White flour. White breads, spahgetti, Ramen noodles, most cereals, tortillas (corn & flour).

Your going to want to eat 5-7 small meals/snacks in a day. That may seem like a lot of eating, but look at it this way. Say your lost in the woods and you need to make a fire that will last all night. Will the fire last longer throwing all the wood you've collected into the fire once or twice during the night, or if you toss a couple of logs in once every 45 minutes-hour?

Your body is pretty similar. You need to feed it a little bit every 2-3 hours to keep it burning fat. The longer you go in between meals, the more likely your body is going to store what you eat as fat. This is because your body doesn't realize that there is food everywhere in the world we live in. It still thinks your a cave-man. And cave-men didn't get to eat very often. Sometimes once every 3-5 days...starving. So our body is designed to store what we eat as fat, because fat has the most energy (calories) per pound. So, if you sleep all night, then skip breakfast and don't eat until lunch at say 11:30am...you probably haven't ate anything in 12+ hours. So, your body thinks your starving, that there is no food to eat. Then you eat a nice, greasy, calorie-loaded slice of pizza. Your body will then store most of it as fat because it thinks there is a food shortage.

Aim for 250-300 calories at each meal/snack.
Also try to eat 20-30 grams of protein at each meal. And of course, your going to want to keep even healthy carbs to a minimum (less than 80 grams a day).

The healthiest carbs are:
Yams
Oatmeal (no sugar)
Sweet Potatoes
Brown Rice

OK carbs are:
Whole-grain bread/buns/tortillas (whole-grain should be the first name on the ingredients list)
Fruits

Aside from the carbs listed above, your meals should consist of:
Chicken breast
Turkey breast
Tuna
Salmon
Egg whites
Almonds
Low-fat cheese (cottage, string cheese)
Lots of vegtables
Lots of water

You need to drink 1 gallon (128oz)minimum per day. Water is what carries the toxins and fat you burn off out of your body through your urine. It also helps keep you feeling full and does wonders for your skin. If your urine isn't clear like water, drink more.

Also, take a multi-vitamin (like Centrum).

If you were to do cardio like ride a bike or jog for 20-45 minutes everyday AND diet, you'll be several sizes smaller in no time. But remember, losing weight is 90% about what you eat, not how much you exercise.

Bodybuilders and fitness models basically eat this way. Not only is it low calorie, low carb, high in protein and natural...it controls your blood/sugar levels and how your body uses the food based on the glycemic index.

Good luck!

Answer 2

I think that part of the problem is that you do not eat right. You must get a proper nutritional diet where you eat five or six times a day and you will lose weight and feel much better. You also need to exercise as well but start out in moderation you do not want to overdo. Check out the source below they have some good stuff especially check out the article at the bottom of the page.

Answer 3

You really don't have to do all that. I was the same weight you are a month ago and now I weigh 200 even NO EXERCISE and its easy than ever. Go to www.differentu.com and look under weight management they have great all natural products and if you call the number on the site you will get a weight loss coach for free and they will tell you how to use what you want and its that simple. I could not believe it at first but it really works. I lost 8 lbs my first week and the rest fell off the rest of the month. Try it they guarantee their results and its really affordable. Gob bless!!

Answer 4

For the most part, it sounds good. As a teen you need 3 servings of milk products per day, you also need a fat serving every day (Olive oil is best) and you don't have to deprive yourself. You can still have pizza- have one or two pieces with a salad, and balance your other calories for that day. You have to work it to fit your life, not just while you are losing. I add tons of veggies to help bulk up my meals, I can eat a full plate of food and be satisfied. If I crave something, I have learned to have a small bit of it and enjoy it.

Answer 5

Hi,
I've tried all different diets, and the weight loss is only temporary. I finally tried diet pills on the market are made from Hoodia. I saw this stuff on ABC News. It's all natural and safe, and it works! My wife took it for a month and dropped 20 pounds. I took it for a month and lost about 13 (but I didn't exercise).

I bought the natural hoodia from this website: http://www.alllsite.info/free-diet-pills.php . I checked the web site address so I can post it here and I saw they're running a promotion now to get a free 2 week sample for only $4.97! I'm going to order this supply for my wife and give it to her for Christmas =)

Answer 7

well, the exercise is good.. the food is good too, but you cant eat the same stuff every day.. soon you'll get bored and crave other foods.. if you change it up and have more, different, healthy foods, then you'd be fine. But other than that, it sounds great:-)

I wish you good luck!

I also recommend sparkpeople.com It's a free weightloss support site and calorie counter.. If you want to join, you can tell them that I recommended it to you..my sn for that site is 140_to_105

Just stick to it, and you can do it!!
