Okay,
I weigh 300 pounds, and im a male 15 years old, and 5'10
When I wake up.
I eat Special K Cereal about 120 Calories
I go to school (I don't eat lunch at school, I never have)
I come, and I might eat a plate of grilled chicken breast with brocolli.
Then I jog/walk 5 miles.
Is this an okay diet? or should I cut down the portion of my after school meal.
ALSO. when I don't have school here is my ritual
Special K,
then about at 12-2pm I eat a subway sandwhich 6 inch, which is about 300 calories.
Then I jog/walk 5 miles, and I eat another 6 incher which is about another 300 calories.
Should I cut down to salads then subs?

That sounds great!
Add a few pieces of fruit to eat between breakfast and dinner. Change it every day so you can maximize your nutrients.
Don't cut down to salads. If you want to cut carbs, do a wrap. You need the carbs since you will be running/jogging/walking.

First of all, you should try to eat at least 1600 calories a day, otherwise your body is just trying harder to store fat because it thinks it's starving Which, it actually is.
Second, you need to add a little more variety. Fruits are a great 60ish-100ish calorie snack to eat during the day. Fish would be great to replace the chicken with every once in awhile since, not only is it less fatty, it has those wonderful omega 3 and 6 fatty acids. Also, different veggies add different essential vitamins and minerals... a good rule is to keep your meals as colorful as possible. And to eat several small meals rather than only breakfast and dinner. Again, eating so little causes your body to store its energy, rather than keeping it readily available for you.
Start bringing a lunch to school. Just something small, maybe tuna on whole grain with a low-fat yogurt.
You are on the right track, just don't restrict yourself so much ;-)
Good luck!

you wont lose fat this way - undereating. evne if you do lose its just water weight and muscle plus you dramatically slow down your metabolism which makes fat loss in future even harder.
find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
dont try to lose more than 1-2lbs a week - its not healthy to lose more.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried - no junk food.

I think you need more good quality nutrition and better exercise.
Here's my Weight Loss Program through Body Building and Nutrition. It works!
If you want to lose weight, Don't Use Diet Pills.
They are bad for you. Most of them are just a scam or they are addictive. Counting calories is a pain in the butt. It will drive you nuts. But, losing weight is simple. You just have to do the right things.
Fad diets sometimes work but, you can be sure that at least 25% of the weight you lose will be muscle. Then when you stop the diet you will gain back all of the weight you lost but no muscle. So, you will have 25% more fat than you did before! Fad diets just
aren't worth the bother.
Fasting or skipping meals will teach your body that famine is about to happen and your body will begin to store more fat to get you through the next period when food is not available.
Here's a simple trick that can help you lose weight without doing anything else. Drink a litre of water as soon as you wake up in the morning and then drink two more throughout the day. You'll notice a difference the first month.
Here's a better way. For every pound of muscle that you add your body will burn 3000 calories (1lb) of fat every day. That means that just by having an extra pound of muscle on your body you will burn a pound of fat every day! So, add muscle!
This is the fastest way to add a pound of muscle. Squats and Pushups! You do them on alternate days; squats one day, pushups the next. And you do them SuperSlow style. That is, you do the easy part twice as slow as the hard part. That way you fatigue the muscles quickly. Then you rest the muscles for 48
hours which gives the body a chance to make new muscles.
Squats should be done with a wide stance and all the way to the floor. Pushups the with palms shoulder width apart and all the way to the floor, then all the way up. Use the full range of motion of the muscle group you are trying to develop.
The idea is to tire the muscles out completely so do a set of squats until you can't do another, then rest for a couple of minutes and do it again. Do that 3 times and you're done for the day. The following day, don't do squats but do pushups. Do them the same way,
go down twice as slow as you come up.
You will lose weight fast, unless you add more junk food and fat to your diet. Instead, eat at least 5 to 7 different raw vegetables and fruits every day. Cut out anything that comes in a bag or package. Cut out all processed foods, soft drinks and sweets. Eat more grains and less red meat. Check out the Food Pyramid.
If you really want to give your body the best
possible chance to be healthy and fat free, go to infinity2.com and order their weight loss formula and Essentials for Life. That will give you all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and probiotics that your body needs and will keep you feeling better and healthier. They also have a Proteabolic Mass Formula for serious athlete who want to build muscle mass quickly and safely.
Weight loss without exercise is not good. You need to eat healthy, exercise and get your rest. You will feel better, look better and be healthier. Try it for a week. You will notice a difference. You will feel better and that will motivate you to continue.
Losing weight only in specific areas of the body is impossible. You can't just lose weight around the belly, for instance.
If you want tight, rippled abs, do crunches and leg raises every other day the way I described above.
Good luck!

you % extra breakfast. lots extra. a banana won't carry you over. attempt to get a fruit, a dairy, and a carb on your breakfast. so like an egg, somewhat toast, and a banana will do. no bagels. way thank you to many carbs and energy. bagels are undesirable nutrients ordinary ingredients. attempt to have a salad with tofu or a boca burger or something like that. or have a hummus or pb sandwich on total wheat bread and a salad. dinner attempt to no longer have salad each night. it is not pleasing and you will in all probability finally end up binging till now you bypass to sleep. attempt to have in step with threat like a veggie burger or some total wheat pasta or some soup or veggie sushi like california rolls. you ought to establish you get a minimum of 1200 energy with that lots exercising.

You are really not taking in enough food. I know you probably didn't want to hear that. You are sending your metabolism into starvation mode and the body will use that as a signal to store what food you are consuming rather than burning it. Good luck.
