Heck No, that wont work only because you're not eating enough. Have you ever heard of "fueling the fire?" Well your body is a fireplace and in order to to get your fire blazing you need to keep "feeding it". So meal ideas is like this:
Morning-7a.m-Bowl of cereal, oatmeal, girts, along with fruit of your choice and an 8 oz. glass of fat free milk.
Lunch@10: Turkey breast sandwich on wheat bread w/ lettuce, tomatoes, and fat free dressing or fat free mayo or just go to Subway and get a deli style sandwich, along with a fruit of choice and a glass of water or a diet drink (crystal light)
Snack@12'ish: Cottage cheese w/ fruit and a glass of water or try Wendy's side salad w/ fat free dressing and a fruit of choice and a glass of water or diet drink(crystal light)
Evening Snack@3pm:Fruit of choice and cheese and crackers.
Dinner@6p.m.:Veggie of choice, meat of choice and a dessert of choice ( fat-free of course, ex:pudding, jello applesauce,etc.)
Late snack@8/9p.m: Fat Free popcorn, Unsalted pretzels, a bowl of cereal (no sugar), Low fat yogurt.
Drink, Drink Drink alot of water. And 30 minutes of exercise a day, that should do you. Well good luck. Hope that helps.

If you eat the same thing everyday, your metabolism will become use to it and level off, causing you not to lose any weight. Your best bet is to cut your calorie intake by 3-400 calories a day. Remember--do NOT go below 1200 because then your body will start to store your food, bc it thinks it is not getting enough. 3500 calories equals 1 lb. Also, eating 4-6 small meals a day will help to boost your metabolism. To figure out how many calories you need go to this calculator and figure it out. Good luck!!

You're more likely to lose and kick in your metabolism by eating several small meals thruout the day instead of 3 larger ones. Break up the meals/snacks to about 5 healthy ones a day - drink lots of water and focus on what you are eating rather then how much and how many calories they have.
Eating lean meats, veggies and avoiding sugar and white starches will help greatly with weight loss.

in the experience that your in basic terms eating 800 energy an afternoon your physique is in starvation mode and attempting to maintain each and all of the nutrition your eating. try upping your energy a touch extra like interior the 1200 section and proceed mutually with your workout and you need to start seeing some outcomes.

when you get hungry mid-afternoon, eat fat free yogurt or a piece of fruit. drink lots of water and get 30 minutes of exercise and you should lose weight. if you don't eat enough calories, though, your body will go into starvation mode and you won't lose weight.

eating healthy foods will keep your metabolism high, but eating little slows it down and you will burn calories less efficiently. it not how much you eat it what you eat. and exercise.
