Well I really wanna lose some pounds so i decided to go on a diet.
Can annyone tell me if the diet plan I made up is good? ^^

5.20AM Waking up, getting dressed
5.30AM Jogging (one hour)
6.30AM Breakfast ( Cornflakes [without sugar just plain normal cornflakes] without milk )
7.15AM. Cycling to school (1 hour ) or going by train (Cycling to the trainstation is like 10 minutes)
10.00AM A snack (A piece of fruit)
During lunchbreak[12.45PM-1.15PM]. (2 Slices bread )
2.10PM or 3PM cycling home
5PM. A snack(Piece of fruit)
Around 6-7PM Dinner (Not eating the things with a lot of fat)
8PM Dancing
10PM Sleeping

It sounds like you are not eating enough. Two slices of bread without anything? What the? Cornflakes without milk (are you lactose or hate milk or something?). Your breakfast is probably 100-150 calories, your fruit if big are a total of 200 calories, your bread is anywhere from 100-200 total and dinner varies. So without dinner you are probably eating 550 calories.

You will lose weight doing this, if you can sustain it. Then once you stop eating this way and eat normally, the weight will come back.

@ hax

Ah thanks ^^

Hehe I'll edit the plan then x3 I don't wanna put milk in the cornflakes because I heard milk has a lot of fat D:

I think you need to read up on some nutrition guides to give you an idea of what you should eat and how much.

You don't lose fat by cutting fatty foods. You lose fat by cutting calories. If all you care about is weight loss, you need to lower calories, but in this case, your calories are so low.

Milk is not bad for you o_o. Drink it. You aren't even eating enough, so if you like it, include it. Get 2% if you are really worried. Try skim if you are absolutely dreading milk.

Spend some time at these forums if you really want a good eating plan. You'll learn how to properly eat for life, not just for a temporary diet.

if you keep this diet for like a month im pretty sure your going to die o_o

lol maybe not die, but you need to know its not good for you

1. your burning way more calories than you take in, your body wont be able to handle
it. because your not eating the energy you need to do all that exercising and not be
fatigued .

2. its just not balanced/healthy

a piece of fruit is not a meal , neither is 2 pieces of bread.
my example of a meal : an omelet, a piece of bread, some fruit , rice
or some thing like : a steak, rice, potatoes ,some fruit ect

and you do NEED fat in your diet because there is such thing as good fat needed to maintain
a healthy body.

also not eating slows your metabolism down , which is why people who eat 3 full meals a day
have a good metabolism.

basically, just have lunch and dinner than is fullfilling but eat REAL food not junk food.

I agree, you should eat a smidge more. At least some milk with your cereal! D: And maybe with it, a piece of toast or fruit? And for lunch, at least have a sandwich instead of just two slices of bread.

[XiaoMeiMei]

I think you need a more balanced diet, and eat more in the morning since that seems like when you'll need most of the energy.

[suzic87]

I agree with what everyone said and eat a more balanced diet of fat, protein, carbs which include stuff like chicken, fish, wholegrains, fruit and veg.

A lot of people are disollusioned that fats and carbs are bad because of all these fad diets have surfaced e.g. atkins etc... however these are essential for your body as long as you are eating the righ types they are fine.

You may think milk is fattening at least it adds calcium to your diet

Here's a list of foods you could incorporate into your diet:

Why you need fat in your diet (and not saturated stuff!!):

p.s. it is reccommended you eat at least 1200kcals a day as a minumum

[songhye]

I think you're overexercising & you need more food.
You're gonna die just eating that much. o.o 550 calories
idk your weight and height but i know you need more than 1000 calories to live

[Honey.bee]

Wtf, that is terrible, please don't kill over yourself to shed some pounds. I ate around 300 kcal a day before, I couldn't exercise AT ALL because my metabolism slowed down way too much. I had to lie down and nap. -_-

& milk is good for you, don't cut it down. If you're so insecure about it, get skim milk or low-fat ones. I love drinking them when i'm hungry, they keep you going until for hours.

[Crystall]

Ah thanks for the advice ^^
Lol xD My knowledge about dieting is really bad o_O

[ngpossible]

If you're going to be exercising, I'd suggest a higher intake of protein such as chicken breast. There's no need in excluding meat from your diet.

When you first wake up, drink a lot of water because it begins your metabolism. Your metabolism slows down after you eat dinner. Each cell recognizes that you're not going to eat anymore and will slow down your metabolism by holding on to the fat in each cell as much as possible. It slows down dramatically when you're sleeping.

If you wake up and start exercising thinking you're burning more, you're wrong. It's in fact the opposite. You're exercising, but your cells recognize that there's no food to feed off of and it'll hold on to the fat as much as possible. Therefore, you'll work twice as hard burning your calories on an empty stomach. I'd suggest drinking some juice and having some bread (for the carbs to give you endurance and energy) at least half an hour before exercising.

Eat six small meals rather than having three big meals. Make sure you eat at least three pieces of fruit a day, drink a lot of water, eat your veggies, get your protein, and exercise. It's far too difficult cutting back food and increasing your exercise load and trying to stick by it. Rather, gradually change your meal plan and keep up with an exercise routine that is ideal will help you lose weight and be healthy in the long run.

Sorry so wordy...nutrition major so there's a lot to say

[shanel]

Eating a high protein rich diet 3-4 times a day in small quantity after regular intervals is really good and along with this diet if a person can get some time for a work out for around 1 hr is great. This is the best way to keep fit and cut the body weight. Though cycling and dancing is also a good exercise.

[rachilde]

I would suggest purchasing a diagram of the food pyramid.

[cncissweet]

dont u pass out from cycling/jogging 2 hours before school?!
it will wear u outtt

and u eat barely anything

[sweetiexpie098]

Hahaha it sounds like a good exercise plan!
Lol you really inspire me but I would never be dedicated enough to wake up that early to go run...
And I think you should eat more for lunch...2 slices of bread is too little and you wouldn't have enough energy ^__^;;
Hope you can acheive your goal!

[angelairshow]

Skim Milk.

And eating that little of calories will make you lose weight, but it will just come back.
Why torture yourself like that when you can lose weight and eat enough to be full?

[loverlyxcth]

This is what I do and it helps me lose half a pound a day,
I did it consistently over a period of 2 months
but i dont think you should do it o.o;
it's just what my plan was

b - apple (90)
l - bagel (300)
d - 2 light&fit yogurts (60x2)
total - 510

then elliptical for 2 hours

[tayloor_]

Eating a big breakfast actually helps your metabolism

sooo maybe eat a bigger breakfast?

[Crystall]

Thanks for the help all :3
