Is this a healthy diet if i want to lose weight? |
i'm 17 years old, female, 5'6, 139 pounds. breakfast: yogurt cup, 60 calories lunch: 1/2 cup lettuce 1/2 cup fat free cottage cheese 6 baby carrots 10 cherry tomatoes green pepper slices 1 medium apple 1/2 cup skim milk snack: yogurt cup, 60 calories dinner: chicken breast 1/2 cup brown rice 1 cup watermelon cubes 1/2 cup corn, tomato, and avacado salad 1/2 slice wheat bread exercise: 45 minutes running 25 minutes biking 15 minutes rowing machine 15 minutes hand weights 10 minutes abs 15 minutes toning and i drank plenty of water. what do you think? is this a good plan? i think i'm getting about 1000-1200 calories. For your height, I think 1000-1200 is too few calories, especially considering the amount of exercise you're putting in. You'd lose weight even if sedentary on 1200 calories. I'd bump up the calories to 1800-2000. Otherwise it looks fine. You're doing all the right things, eating healthy and exercising. The only problem I see is that you need to eat more for breakfast. How about a bowl of oatmeal with a banana and some milk? Keep up the good work. If you're working out that hard, you're going to want to bump of the calorie intake just a bit so your body has protein to repair the rips and tears in your muscles. Not excessive. That's a good start. Once you start to see results, then you may want to increase the calorie intake a bit more. Of course, that's if you're looking to build muscle. If you're just looking to get toned, then not necessarily. Good luck...keeping up with diets are tough. Edit: By the way, 139 is close to average for someone your height and age. i'm not an expert at all...but it sounds good to me. i too, am trying to lose weight. i eat a bowl of cereal in the a.m. and take a vitamin. for lunch i eat a salad or a turkey or chicken sandwich on wheat. i drink water throughout the day. for dinner i eat a salad, a baked lean piece of meat/poultry, and some rice. and i walk for an hour 5 days a week. i make it a habit to not eat after 6 p.m. real good hope it works for you. this a good plan but you already sound skinny 5/6 at 139 thats pretty good! |
