Try eating more raw food. Raw fruit for breakfast is great for most people. If you consume dairy, I fruit smoothie might be a great option for you as well. This is really quick, easy and nutritious. Drink lots of purified natural spring water. Try to avoid processed sugar and flour like breads, cookies and cakes. Calories are not as important and eating real, unprocessed, nutritious food.
Awesome! Glad to help.

it will work for a couple of days or weeks... depending on how patient you are. but after that patience has gone your going to gain a lot more weight than you have now. try a fair weight-losing style... try this:



1.set a goal

2.start today

3.no shortcuts

4.find your inspiration

5.be happy



example:

1. lose 5lbs in a month (a moderate goal)

2. i'm going to cut off eating junk food or eat less of it. shop for fruits and veggies. balance my eating habits with meat. stagger my eating times (eat around 5 times a day, breakfast being the largest meal and dinner being the smallest meal) in addition to that, try eating dinner before 6pm. and eating a large breakfast can be difficult at first... its kind of something that is practiced. and... exercise around 30 minutes a day (as simple as walking, jogging) and make sure you eat something before and after the exercise, don't exercise empty stomached and make sure the replenish yourself with lots of water... drink 8 glasses of water day or more, preferably... it will help a lot!

3. no shortcuts! don't drink water and not eat anything. or exercise and not replenish yourself afterwards

4. i'm losing weight and gaining lean muscle because i'm impressing my crush... or doing it for my children, for my family, for my friends, for me!

5. be happy... after all that hardwork... always have some fun time. maybe after losing 5 lbs (your goal) celebrate by eating a burger :) and fries :) then start again to step 1 =)
you should be having atleast 1500 per day and if you are excersiing you should have even more
Well,in order to lose weight,you have to burn more calories than you eat. Bearing in mind that you burn around 60 calories per hour(that's one calorie per minute)when you sleep,and you also burn calories by just doing regular,everyday things. But the exercising obviously helps. You're diet seems alright to me,just keep eating a variety of foods,and exercise a bit more(about an hour a day)and you should get good results. :)

You r doing opposite. Your BF should be heavy and dinner absolutely light.Calculate your BMR and then see how many calories u can eat.
the key is to use more calories than you take in. i would cut the lemon cake out of diner, and the ketchup out of the subway sub, and add in like a peanut butter sandwich for lunch, and i would run for an hour, or 3 miles a day, whichever is faster.
You need at least 1500 calories a day to stay healthy, and if you're an adult, you'll be losing weight with that intake too, if you do 40 minutes of exercise.



I'd recommend changing your grocery shopping habits, and you'll eat better, guaranteed. A subway sub, cheetos, and fruit punch are all things to avoid, except to treat yourself. Buy more fruits and veggies. Vegetables are very filling, and don't have a lot of calories, and most importantly they are nutritious and good for you.
