Answer 1

You havent eaten enough - i think its between 850-1000cal - body needs 50cal/hour just for basic functioning (like when you are in coma) and thats 1200cal/day for a person under 150lbs.
if you are studying...you need more calories and especially healthy fats for your brain (nuts, avocado, fish etc)

Answer 2

depends on your body, Judging by what you wrote you don't seem to be a tall or large person.

To be honest what you had sounds good. I would avoid pasta in general since pasta is generally prepared with a lot of unnesssary oil and fats (such as butter or some of that nasty yellow cheese).

The fruit and veggies sound great!
Honestly I suggest you eat more protein such as lean Turkey, roast beef, beef jerky.


Don't get offended overall your diet seemed small to me, but still very good and healthy :)


From my own personal experiance with weight loss Cardio and strength training are the key along with a balanced and proper diet. But I have tried undereating and to be honest It wasn't any more effective than eating nomally and working out.

Answer 3

If u wanna lose weight, u should burn off the calories u eat, but u didnt over eat. Sounds liek u ate pretty healthy, unlike me =P (but I burn em off)

I think its good as long as u dont eat over 1,400 calories? But idk
