- yes you are good
- dam stait
- I think that "hard to chew" diet will get frustrating quick. Eating right isnt about stuffing cardboard down your throat.
- wow, yea that going to work i wish i could do that. your going to make it
- A man needs 2500 calories, but your diet sounds great, just watch out for bananas, and if you exercise, drink extra water , and eat protein.
- i believe it will work if you stick with it, GOOD LUCK
- Good plan. I do about the same thing - low calorie diet and working out. I put a pork chop covered in seasoning, cubed potato, and chopped onion in a glass covered dish in the oven for a half hour. I also have a small rice steamer, and I cook one cup of rice with curry while putting a chicken thigh covered in spices and frozen green beans in the steamer tray. I also eat salads for breakfast and popcorn from my hot air popper when I need a snack.
- If you stick to your diet, it should work out just fine for you. Good Luck!!!
- Why two pieces of chicken and how will it be cooked? One piece of skinless baked or broiled chicken should be sufficient. As to dry salad - which can be majorly B O R I N G - you can squeeze some lemon juice on a salad in lieu of dressing to pump up the flavor. And do keep in mind that salad isn't necessarily low calorie. It depends entirely on what you put in the salad. If you load it down with diced chicken or pork, boiled egg, sunflower nuts, cheese, croutons a whole sliced avocado, etc. you defeat the reason you had a salad to begin with. Lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery are all low calorie considerations. Even the chicken, avocado, etc are okay in SMALL amounts. The key is to be sensible about it. I can't tell you the number of times I've seen people load a serving platter -sized portion of salad onto a plate because they're on a so-called diet that later wondered why they weren't losing weight. Your program looks reasonable for losing weight so long as you are not overlooking calories in the areas I've mentioned. Brown rice is a better alternative to white rice by the way because it has more fiber. I think you will definitely lose weight with your planned diet and exercise program unless you have some underlying metabolic or endocrine disorder that interferes.
- Your diet sound very good. There is one important macro nutrient missing - FAT. Yes, I said it - fat. It is very very important if you want to lose weight. Yes that is true. Flaxseed seed is a proven supplement to reduce weight. Include that and some fatty fish (tuna, salmon ) in your diet and it will be perfect. The workout plan also seems to be good but I suggest no high intensity cardio on your leg day (unless it is during separate sessions). Your leg day should the most intense - squats, deadlifts, cleans, etc. This leaves little energy for a 30 min intense cardio effort.
- well it looks good, but it is important that you stick with it. Coz I tried same thing last year, I stick with it for 2 months and indeed I lost some body fat and gained muscles. But soon enough I got back on my regular junk food habits. Also, try to add protein shake in your diet.
