Answer 1

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 2

4 cups of coffee is too much. caffeine makes you get fat and unhealthy. you shouldnt drink 4 cups. maybe 1 or 2 the most a day.

you should eat fruits to lose weight like

apples

bananas

oranges

theyre all good nutrientious fruits.

about a thousand calories is good for a day .

also try exercising. like running for 30 minutes everyday if you can. it's good for you and burns a lot of calories.

Answer 3

It isn't much to eat, but it's bad for your health.

Try swapping half of the carbs with fruit or veggies for two reasons:

1. Carbs are fattening, fruit & vegs arent

2. You need your vitamins, so fruit & veggies should do the job.

I have an easy tip to know how much food you should intake in each meal.

Make sure that 3/4 of your plate is fruit & veggies, then ONLY 1/4 should be meat, dairy, or carbs.

Answer 4

Caffine makes your body hold fat cells, so I'd try cutting back on so much of it to start. The burrito not a bad idea if you used whole grain tortilla.

Take your wieght and times it by 7. That is the number of calories your body needs a day to consistantly lose weight. As you lose weight, remember to recalculate.

You need all food groups, why not add a piece of fruit or raw veggies or salad in there for snacks or lunch. If you eat too less, your body goes into starvation mode and you won't lose any weight at all.

It's best if you can eat 6 small meals a day, 2 or 3 being snacks, handful of nuts, fruit, string cheese (light or fat free), low calorie foods in between meals to keep your metabolism going.
