How healthy would you rank my diet - one to ten? -

Okay, this is modified from a lot of junk and salt and crap, so im pleased with the changes regardless. But Im curious what other people think (im aiming for healthy weight loss, slow and not massive amounts quickly, so theres no point in telling me to eat a lot less, not gonna happen!) Thanks guysbreakfast: applesnack: bannanalunch: cheese sandwich on wholemeal bread, no butter, one packet of jacobs snack a jacks, one 4 finger kit katdinner: 2 grilled pork chops (visible fat removed) one jacket potato and sweetcorn, low fat chocolate mousseevening: two slices of wholemeal toast (no butter) with philadelphia (full fat), 3 vodka and diet cokes and a packet of hula hoops.

very good baby doll.

4I won t tell you what to and what not to remove from your list, but just my opinion, I would push some of your dinner /lunch/ evening down to the breakfast list. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.I don t get what the difference is between dinner and evening is though. If you have dinner, earliest by 5pm and evening by 8pm-10pm, you re body will still be digesting those lean (but still fatty) pork chops. The you ll be going to bed with that Philadelphia and that can t be good. Just throw one slice of that wholemeal toast (no butter) with Philadelphia (full fat) for breakfast, I think that would be a little better;-) Just my two cents. Take it from me hun, I m dieting too!!!

3 or 4

For a start...you are eating way too much food in the evening.Try to eat the bulk of your food in the morning, to give you the energy to last the day. Cut out chocolate and replace with some fruit and have a substantial breakfast.I would rate it 6.5.

I think that you should have a bigger breakfast. Only an apple in the morning isnt going to give the energy you need to go through the day. Only an apple will encourage snacking. Maybe try kellogs special k with berries, its very nice, and filling! Then you wont have to have a snack, but carry one just in case, to stop your stomach growling! Lunch is great, maybe takeway the kit kat and replace with fruit(Try to vary it!), and have a bottle of water, instead of coffie or tea (they stain, and can cause acid erosion on your teeth). In dinner add more vegatables. You need vitamins and minerals in your diet. I have my dinner at 7 or 8 o clock, then you wouldnt have to have that evening snack. But then you will have to have a snack between lunch and dinner, just the toast with philadelphia will do, and if your going to have coke, at least have full fat, coke is a treat really. Maybe submit it for pinnaple juice. Pinnaple juice gives you feel good hormones in your brain. Try to only drink when your going out with your friends, and then limit it, one of you needs to stay sober to pay the taxi fare!

7. you eat wayyyy too many sweets in one day tho, thats where you go wrong!!!get rid of the alcohol and diet coke, drink more WATER! and try to only have one sweet a day. and try to to gradually take sweets out of your daily intake, and maybe have a sweet once a week have one cheat day.

Better than the average american. Still a bit of sugar though. You need alot more vegetables and fruits. And just so you know, your doing a good job, but you should eat more in the mornings and less in the evening and drink 3 32oz cups of water per day. Ice water burns 300 more calories than room temp water.

5. Start out good. Lunch is iffy. Dinner you have corn and potato which is 2 starches. The Diet cokes have a lot of sugar.

2.5

0 because you dont have a real breakfast. Not having a proper breakfast throws your chance of losing weight in a healthy manner straight out the window.do you have 3 vodka and diet cokes everynight? thats too much (increases you risk of many nasty chronic diseases in the long term). your not eating enough vegetables. although it is good that you are choosing wholemeal over white.you are still consuming alot of salty foods (2 packets of chips in one day????)your also eating to much in the evening. try less and lighter. you have your day the wrong way around. more in the morning less in the evening.try drinking at least 2 litres of water aday. it helps your liver metabolise fat and leaves you less hungry.if you want any suggestions email me

Hmm, 6. Evening and night seem to slip a bit.

vodka and cola ?!? yuk. sounds like you need some jack and steak. to go with that cola. but seriously, sounds like something you should not eat everyday (or want to). but it does sound somewhat healthy, just throw in some leafy greens, or toss a salad.

7.4try heavy breakfast, and skip evening snack

You need a bigger breakfast,and get rid of the vodka and coke and the packet of hula hoops. 6/10

It starts out good, but gets worse as the day goes on... I d give it a 4... Not too horrible, but vodka and coke give you a TON of calories.

an apple for breakfast isn t gonna giv u enough energy for the dayalso, to improve weightloss, u shudnt b eating anything to do with bread or pasta after 3pm because it will store and not b burned off.are you going 2 b exercising during weightloss program of urs.exercise is the most important part wen it comes to weightloss

I went on Thedailyplate.com and calculated what you ate in terms of Calories, fat, protien, etc. Here is what you ate:Calories: 2,510 ----- My guess is that this is too high!Fat: 113g ----- Your ok here, but try to reduce the sat fat Cholest: 278mg ----- to highSodium: 2,504mg ---- WAY TO HIGHCarbs: 235g --------- your good here.Sugar: 67g -------- not to bad, but not to great eitherFiber: 26g --------- The more the better!Protein: 91g -------- To low.I would give you a 5. You are on the right track, but I don t think you truely understand what all you are putting into your body. you have to understand the mechanics of weight loss first, and then relate that to how your food will help or hinder your goals.Weight loss is as easy as Calories in versus Calories out.You have to burn 3100 calories to equal one pound! So for a 5 5 women who is 140 pounds, has an seditary lifestyle (When not working out, she is sitting at school or work, doesn t really do much physical labor in her daily life), her body burns 1200 calories just being alive! So she must eat 1200 calories to properly fuel her body for living. If she does no more physical activity, then she will gain weight if she eats over her 1200 calories. (and before you quote the daily recommended 2000, you are correct in thinking that 1200 is to low to get your recommended balance of food groups . However, we are talking weight loss and not food groups here. ) Ok. So if she is eating 1200, then she is breaking even and won t loose any or gain any. Now add a work out that burns 500-600 calories six times a week. That will equal your one pound per week.Go to the daily plate.com to find out how many calories your body burns daily. (remember when they ask you how active you are, they aren t including exercise because that is calculated seperatly.) Then once you have your calorie intake goal, use the myplate calorie calculator to determine what you are putting into your body.My personal daily calorie goal is 1220, but I work out really hard and burn 700+ calories per workout. So I eat 200 calories 15-30 mins before my workout (so that I don t shock out, or get sick feeling. Since my calorie intake is so low, I need to fuel myself right before my workout to help me get through my workout without feeling bad.) That way, I am netting 500 calories burned a day. (1220burned + 1220 consumed - 700burned +200 consumed = 500 net burned)I do this 6-7 days a week, and I m loosing about a pound a week. In the last 20 weeks I ve lost 15 pounds. (The first five weeks my body didn t loose any real weight, but I was also not regulating my calorie intake before my workouts..... so my body was fighting to keep the weight. Eating 100-200 calories before your 45 -60 minute workout is very important!!) Good luck

4 maybe a 6 ....Breakfast - you need more to start your dayLunch - cheese + KitkAt = alot of fatDinner - looks fine, but how do you eat the same thing over and over?!?Evening: you should be eating in the evening (2-3 hourse before bed) ...

You need to increase your breakfast size. Eat a big breakfastIt is interesting to note that 80 percent of the people who are overweight eat a small breakfast or none at all. Eighty percent of thin people eat a large breakfast. Your breakfast should consist of as much as you want of the following items. Everything listed should be organic. Apples, pears, berries, kiwis, pineapples, grapefruit, plums, peaches, prunes, figs, rye bread, raw butter (raw means not pasteurized and not homogenized), raw milk, plain yogurt (this means no sugar or fruit), wild smoked salmon, beef in any form as long as it��s organic, chicken in any form as long as it��s organic, lamb in any form as long as it��s organic, tuna, sardines, eggs, tomatoes, peppers, salsa, celery, carrots, any vegetable, potatoes in limited amounts, coffee in limited amounts made with pure water not tap water with raw milk or cream and raw evaporated sugar cane juice or honey as a sweetener, real tea (not tea in tea bags).Also dont forget to drink water, People think drinking water will make them gain weight and be bloated. The exact opposite is true. If you are overweight you need to flush the toxins from your fat cells. Water is absolutely needed for you to lose weight fast.You could add in a salad before lunch and dinner also. I don��t care if your lunch is a cheeseburger, French fries, and a pint of ice cream, add to it a big, huge salad and eat that first. You��ll be amazed that you lose weight. The salad can contain anything you like as long as it is only vegetables and they are organic. The salad dressing should be organic olive oil and freshly squeezed lemon juice, or organic vinegar. If you really want to speed the weight loss process use organic apple cider vinegar. Add some organic sea salt, fresh ground pepper, or some garlic for taste. Absolutely NO diet sodas or diet foodDiet sodas have been called the ��new crack�� because they appear to be so physically addicting. They actually make you fat. The reason they are promoted so heavily is because people become physically addicted to them and they are cheaper to make than regular sodas. I did an interesting experiment with people who drank diet sodas on a regular basis. For two weeks they replaced their diet soda with regular high-calorie sugar sweetened soda. Amazingly, no one gained any weight. Even more shocking was 80 percent of the people actually lost weight. One person lost seven pounds! This was stunning to me. Diet foods fall into the same category. Do not eat anything that is being presented as a diet food. They are loaded with ingredients that will actually make you fatter, and make you physically addicted.For more free tips on how to lose weight check my site there is a link to it in my profile.

I give u a big 0 ZERO.If u believe this is a diet then u should be really st..id.

4 , coz if u r aiming for a weight loss u should follow this: breakfast - eat like a kinglunch - eat like a queendinner - eat like a pauper

2. There are more nutritious methods that would allow you to lose the same or more amount of weight and in fact eat more. Eat less in the evening and more in the morning. When you sleep, the evening carbs are stored. In the morning, you have time to burn the carbs throughout the day.

4 :(Not enough leafy greens and vege, except for the apple,banana, jacket potato and corn.Instead of diet cokes, you could juice some fruit and vege. and drink more unsweetened white or green tea, or just plain water.Enjoy and indulge in your favourite snacks, but portion and frequency is important. Think small and infrequent :)Weight loss is achievable; slowly. It has to be coupled with exercise too, for overall success.Hope this helps :)

why do you have so much after dinner???

I rank it 8 out of ten!
