I’m 14, 5’2, and wheigh 120…I know Im not truly FAT, but i still want to lose whieght. I have a little bit of a tummy pouch and i HATE it…Over the summer I did slim fast and lost 25 lbs and then stopped cause i thought i was ok, but now i find myself hating my body. Ive tried going back to slim fast, eating super haelthy, and barley eating but nothing seems to work anymore!!! I dont eat junk food regularly and never eat bread. I exercize 2-3 times a week and have been taking green tea pills to lose fat but nothing works!!! I dont know what to do anymore. Ive tried everything but i cant lose the fat!! Please help me!!!

P.S. I get super bad cravings for junk food and i always want to eat for some reason.. I dont give in though…If its too bad ill grab and apple or something but most of the time I dont think i really need to eat. Should i be concerned? Im also a vegitarian so i dont know if that plays a big role in it or what…

I eat no more than 1200 calories and do 100 reps each of inverse crunches, leg lifts, and "jack knives" a day. about 3 days a week, i swim laps for about 20 minutes. a daily meal plan for me is:

breakfast- serving size of special k with a splash (literally, i dont like a lot of milk in my cereal) of 2% milk and a peach or apple.

lunch- light n’ fit yogurt with about 1 tbsp of grape nuts mixed in and another piece of fruit.

dinner- depends on what my parents are making haha but usually pasta or chicken with some sort of veggie…it ends up being between 300-500 calories, no more or less. sorry thats vague.

i only drink water and don’t really snack at all but if i do it fruit, pretzels, rice cakes, etc.

oh and im 16, 5′ 3". i started almost a month ago and i’ve gone from 147 to 140 lbs. my goal is to be 130.

i’m sorry if this is too much of a mouthful haha.

Ok here’s my plan : 5:30am eat cheesy white (no yolk) scrambled eggs w/ whole wheat bread and milk. Around 12:00pm eat salad w/ Italian dressing. water with an apple or something. Then 5:00pm eat either baked fish or chicken. or whole wheat noodles pasta.V8 juice and brown rice. some veggie or broccoli w/ cheese on the side. Also, by drinking water between meals or during lunch, id drink a gallon of water everyday. and not eat after 6:00pm.

is that a good meal plan? here’s my workout scheduled : every day workout by jump rope, hiking, walking, hula hoop, or dancing for an hour or more. plus volleyball at school

is that a good workout plan. im planning to do all of this for around a whole school year. and could you determine how much weight i would lose mabey. thanks so much! -me

So, I just started this diet about 3 days ago.

Basically you eat a ton of live things…(fruits, vegees, unprocessed foods- or close to it)

Basically, what I eat… 1/2 serving of whole wheat oat meal, cherries, and half a serving of snap peas for breakfast. For lunch, I have a small spinach salad with light balsamic vinigrette dressing and other vegees mixed in. For dinner, I have steamed spinach and a few oz’s of raw tuna. For snacks— geez — Banana, snap peas, negtarine, egg whites, raw spinach, and an apple. ————- That’s around 600 calories.

It’s sooo much food. The point is to basically stuff yourself with live foods… To lower your PH level… My friend followed this diet, and actually lost 10 lbs in like 15 days.

Well, I was just seeing what everyone else though of this diet… and to see who else has all tried it.

I haven’t lost any weight yet. But you are supposed to do this lil diet for about 2 weeks, stop for 3-4 days and go again..

Breakfast- 1 cup special K cereal with red berries(120), 1/2 cup vanilla soy milk(50), an apple(80-100)= 250-270 calories

Lunch- Tomato soup(190), veggie thin crackers(150), and a pear(100)= 440 calories

So far= 690-710 calories

Snack- Applesauce(90), 1 cup light cranberry juice(40)=130calories

So far=820-840 calories

Dinner- Morning star griller patty with french’s mustard(170), 4 morning star ChiK’n’ nuggets(190) and some light string cheese(70)= 430

Altogether=1240-1260 calories for the day.

What should I replace/not eat, and is that a good calorie range to aim for?

I’m 5’7"
151.5lbs.

Okay I am going to try and run 4-5 miles tomorrow, crunches, leg lifts, toning videos. but I don’t know if it will happen FOR SURE because of christmas. but Im going to try.

So Ill wake up late and for lunch, which choice should I have?

1. Kashi oatmeal (8 grams protein, 150 cals), Kashi cereal with skim milk (180 cal, 13 gram protein), 3 egg whites, one pear, one small apple. And a granola bar before I run and stuff.
so that will be 630 calories. and I wont eat again until dinner.

2. Chicken veggie patty (80 cal), 1/2 cup brown rice (150 cal), one pear, one small apple, Kashi go lean bar (150 cal), 1 cup steamed broccoli.

I know the second sounds healthier, but would the first be all that bad? it has so much protein. but is it too many carbs?

because for dinner, I know I am having amy’s organic veggie lasagna, 1 cup green beans, one pear, one small apple.
so I dont want too many carbs..but the brown rice has so many carbs.

gosh, just please help me out. pleasepleaseplease

any other suggestions? i’m trying to stay under 2000cal. i workout every day

Hi im 90 and 5’4 i had to eat more than I usually do b/c i needed energy for an audition.. but i didnt make it so now im depressed and feel fat.. Please help me. I run very long distance 4 times a week and stregth train then i have master ballet on days i dont run

I had Breakfast: Instant oatmeal with fruitloops on top

Lunch: A boiled egg and a mini Whole wheat dinner roll with some apple and grape slices

Then i had a non fat latte

THen i audition for A ballet summer intensive that i didnt get itno 90 minutes of master ballet and lots of stress

Dinner: a six inch subway sub with a turkey salad (no dressing)

I didnt deserve any of this food i feel like! I didnt make the audition and i usally work out alot more than this like run Alot of miles (not putting how much i run, for the safety of people who have eating disorders reading this). But i had to eat for energy for that audition that i did so well in but Didnt make it!!!!! Ugh im so upset! did i eat too much and how many calories is this!

Okay, so this is what I have laid out to eat tomorrow, and I’m going to stick to it. I know that the food quality isn’t that good, but it’s a h*ll of a lot better than what I had been doing before. I plan to keep in calorie range like this, and then work my way into more veggies and fruits, and only drinking plain old water. Right now I’m accostomed to taste that I’ve had my entire life, but if I can ease into it, then it won’t feel like such a big change. Understand? So don’t rag on me for the food choices. I’m looking at calories right now, and then within the next month, food quality, such as fiber, carbs, less sodium, ect.

Applesauce= 80
Sandwich(Cheese and wheat + french’s mustard)=290
mandarin orange=50
capri sun=60
lunchable=270
apple=80
veggie thin crackers=150
light string cheese=70
and then a sparkling water=0

I will be drinking tons of water throughout the day, and I have about 30mins of PE and then a vollyball game. I usually play at least one game, if not two.

I know that it’s not a lot, and compared to what I was eating it’s practically nothing, calorie wise, but I wan’t to make a difference. I’ve gone long enough being chubby. I’m 5’7" and 154lbs. I used to be 145lbs. My goal is 125-135lbs by the end of september 2010. That’s a lot, but I can do it if I have the will.
This amount of calories equal 1050(roughly), and if I eat a big breakfast, I get sick, so I ususally stick to applesauce or something and eat more in the afternoon, which might not be smart, but it’s what works.

Breakfast:
-organic cereal with skim milk
-a 100 calorie yoplait light yogurt

Snack
-a cup of blackberries

Snack
-1 really big apple

Lunch
-220 calorie protein bar

Snack
-some carrots

Snack
-a handful of unsalted almonds

Dinner
-a veggie burger with 1 slice low fat cheese, a wheat bun, and some ketchup
-some green beans

For exercise, I plan to just run like 2 miles because I ran a lot yesterday. I will also do some sit ups and stuff like that. So, is this good for today?
When I don’t plan out my meals, I either don’t eat or I binge.
I’m a vegetarian so I never eat real burgers.

Hi, my 7 month old baby had a little weight gain problem… I was exclusively breastfeeding him until I went to his 6 month old check up and I find out he didn’t gain any weight since his 4 month check up and he was really low in the charts (he weighed 13 pounds back then and now he weighs 16)… the doctor suggested to supplement with formula and to start on solids (I also decided to take the nursing herbs and teas to increase my milk supply)… and so far everything’s going well… he eats rice cereal, banana, pear, apple, avocado, sweet potato, butternut squash…. He eats 4 times a day:

7:00- Breastmilk
11:00 1 tablespoon of cereal mixed with an ice cube of fruit and a little bit of formula, plus a bottle of formula (6-8 oz)
3:00 1 tablespoon of cereal mixed with an ice cube of a veggie and a little bit of formula, plus a bottle of formula (6-8 oz)
7:00 Breastmilk

What do you think about his meal plan?? any recommendations??

I eat an energy bar for lunch each day; should I eat a salad instead? Whenever I eat a lunch with a salad, baby carrots, and an apple, I feel very bloated and fat but when I eat just an energy bar I feel full and better about myself.

What should I eat?
