Answer 1

You can eat much more than that and still lose weight, try to get 6 meals everyday spaced 2-3 hours apart to keep a fast metabolism, replace soda/beer/fruit juices with 8 cups of water. Find out how many calories you burn daily and eat 500-1000 calories less than that. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains for carbs, lean meats for protein. Aim to lose around 1-2 pounds per week.

Answer 2

why do you want to lose weight? your already skinny! but anyway i think you need to increase your fruit and vegetable intake and maybe also add another snack

Answer 3

sounds good. just increase your veggie intake.

for a workable diet -

here is what my dietician suggests - follow a practical diet. start your meal with a soup or a huge salad. this fills u up. Make sure your plate has this ratio - 50 per cent veg, 25 per cent  carb. potatoes, corn and peas come in carbs category. 25  per cent protein.this will prevent cravings too.an occassional treat is OK. have a snack every three hours. fruit ,ideally berries, or soy nuts. just 2 tbsp of soya subsides hunger pangs. have a protein shake too, if you want. it will fight the fat and give you extra energy to exercise. switch from white rice and bread to brown. eat 900gms of veggies a day.Needless to say, NO soda, chips, cookies! Lose a kilo a week. that is  permanent loss.  pick an exercise regime you like.  

get a pedometer and  try to take 10,000 steps everyday.

Answer 4

looks like you'll consume less calories than you need so you should lose weight.  try the pen and paper diet since it's a calorie budget and lets you eat the types of food you like and still lose weight.
