I'm a 16 yr old female student, trying to lose fat. i'm currenly 120lbs, but am aiming for 100.? |
I'm on a diet trying to loose fat, and for the past 2 weeks, i've been averaging 1600 calories a day, and i do 30 min vigrous exercise on the exercise bike most days, which burns about 300-400 calories. Every few days i do weights. I spend lots of time studying and working on the computer. I used to eat at least 2000 something calories a day, but at the moment, i always feel hungry. i have alot of stress in my life锛宎ny relation? Now, I have 2 weet-bix and a glass of milk for breakfast, veggies or salad for lunch or sometimes a sandwich, and dinner is small portion of rice with some meat and veggies. snacks include nuts and fruit. I often feel rundown and find it hard to concentrate, and even dizzy sometimes. At times, i have blurred vision. My weight seems to be on a plataeu now. I'm not to sure if my current calorie intake is okay. I've checked out my base metabolic rate: I burn about 1600-1800 calories without doing anything Any advice on what i should be doing please? For a 16 yr old 120 lbs sounds about right. (How tall are you?) I would go ahead and stop with dieting, if you are getting dizzy you aren't getting enough calories, with too few calories your metabolism is going to slow down to preserve what weight you have. Continue with the low-fat diet, but increase the calories. I would instead focus on sculpting and toning my body. As you add muscle mass, your weight may increase some. You might want to join a club or come up with a goal to aim for like running in a certain race. Then measure your progress according to that goal instead of focusing on how much you weigh when you step on the scale. Do daily exercise and ovoid taking fatty food and remeber you should daily workout. You are at nomal weight.You do not need to lose any weight.If you are worried about the way you look then just tone up your body. How tall are you? Unless you're shorter than 5 feet, you are at a healthy weight. Make sure you are eating either wholemeal or granary breads, long grain rice, wholemeal pasta and unrefined wheats. They will take longer to digest and keep you full longer. Try eating porridge for breakfast, that will keep you full longer. Make it with skimmed milk and artificial sweetener to keep the calories down. If you are exercising hard you may need to increase your carbs a little, it sounds as if your blood sugar id dropping and making you dizzy. Give it a try. If things don't improve then I would suggest that you get medical advice. PS Make sure you keep your fluid intake high...at least 8 pints of water a day. I am not a doctor, but I was slimming down for wrestling in high school. I cut way back on my intake, usually one meal a day and such. I had the same symptoms you are having. Turned out I had low blood sugar which could eventually lead into high blood sugar or diabetes. You need to get seen by a doctor and explain what is going on. BTW, 120 is not bad at all and if you did want to loose some weight, slowly is the best way, it tends to lead to less medical problems. You didn't mention how tall you are. 120 is a healthy weight for somone in the 5'3" range down to 4'11". You shouldn't shoot for 100 lbs. unless you are 5'0". |
