How to improve diet/weight loss?
Hey all. I'm a 18yo male who's recently lost some weight just from cutting back on the sodas, ice cream, snacks, etc. I weighed about 220 and am now down to 170 (though still have a stomach bulge and fatty pecs). However, I've now started P90X here and there..I usually do an exercise every other day, not every day as recommended.
I drink atleast 64 fl. oz of water a day. My diet meal consists of two poptarts and a fiber bar for breakfast (520 cals, 14g fat, 100g carbs (47g sugar), 11g fiber, and 8g protein) and then usually a Subway sub for dinner (~1000 cal, always on wheat bread) and maybe popcorn for a late snack.
Where and how can I improve my diet to promote some slimming and weight loss? I plan on going into the gym for muscle building within the next week or so, but really want to make sure I've got my dieting and such set. Thanks for any help

Hello, is anyone on the Quick Weight Loss Center Diet Plan?
If so, how do you space your meals or schedule your meals. I have breakfast, Mid A.M., Lunch, Mid P.M., Dinner and a snack. I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to space my meals. Also, I don't get home until 6pm and they say do not eat after 6. But with my schedule that's kind of difficult. So any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks...
What Do You Think of My Weight Loss Diet?
What do you guys think of my diet to lose fat? I generally recommend this to people:
Breakfast: Oatmeal, 1 whole egg, 1 orange, and 2-3 tablespoons of all natural peanut butter in the oatmeal (to increase healthy fat intake)
Snack: Oat bran bread and a serving of lean chicken
Lunch: Serving of lean beef/ lean chicken/fish
Snack: Either a small serving of fish, or scoop of Whey protein mixed with all natural peanut butter, water and fruit, especially if after a workout
Dinner: Serving of fish
Before bed: Cup of cottage cheese, or a scoop of casein protein
You sure? I haven't actually been able to count the grams of fat in this diet yet, I'm pretty sure that's not too much fat.
I know the protein is sufficient, I never had time to see the actual quantity of grams of fat and carbohydrates in this diet. The diet should be 30% healthy fats and 30% carbohydrates.
I know it has no vegetables, I don't want to make the carbohydrate intake too high, Vegetables aren't as necessary as most people believe.
They only provide micronutrients (vitamins/minerals). If you are having fruits and a multivitamin then you should be fine.
Kmsca-It really doesn't matter much how you cook the egg, you could make a sunny side up. Also, you should use extra virgin olive oil, that's a healthy oil.
This is basically the diet I gave you, don't know if you noticed, lol. Like I said, make sure you calculate everything, I haven't had the time to calculate myself, so I'm not sure if the diet meets my exact recommendations, my diet was just an approximation with examples.
Thanks Pat, other than that you think the amount of fat is good for a 1,900 to 2,000 calorie diet?
Is this a good weight loss diet?

Dinner - One of the following: Pasta with chicken or beef and a low fat sauce, jacket potato with tuna or low fat cheese, rice with chicken or beef and a low fat sauce, noodles with veg and a low fat sauce

Does anyone recommend any good fast weight loss diets?
I want to loose weight without using a fad diet and I want to loose weight naturally, but fast at the same time. Please give me a 7 day schedule of what I should eat or a recommendation of good foods. Also do you recommend skipping lunch? I always get bored, skip lunch and end up snacking, but when I'm not bored and skip lunch I don't snack. I am a teeensy-weensy bit overweight according to wii fit..
