Thread: Please check my diet

Looks pretty good to me,although I`d up the protein in meal one by eating more egg white.Keep your ptrotein high while trying to lose weight in an effort to hold onto muscle tissue.

your calories seem a bit too low hun... you dont want to risk putting your body in starvation mode and loosing muscle.
Id add a bit more protien to meal 1 and 3 (6shrimp doesnt have much protein). in meal 3 I would switch the pasta to either brown rice, sweet potatoes/yams or beans/legumes. even more oatmeal if you wanted!
what sort of fat free dressing is it? many of those are loaded with sodium and added sugars.
I also dont see NEAR enough fats in your diet. 15g is incredibly low. add in at least another tablespoon of EFA's, flax, olive oil, fish oil caps and/or fatty fish, natural peanut butter, nuts/seeds in moderation.
also.. what sort of cardio are you doing? 5 days seems a bit much. are you doing any HIIT (interval style) cardio?

Thank you so much for helping!

How many calories do I need to loose weight (body fat)?

How come whole wheat pasta is bad?

The cardio I do is not HIIT.. it's usually either a spinning class, aerobics (step or kickboxing) or just elliptical or a bike for 30 min.

Thank you!

at your weight, 110lbs, start at multiplying your weight by 12. try at the level for a bit and see how you make out. can be adjusted from there. I also might add that adding one day of a higher carb with more calories will be beneficial in preventing your metabolism from slowing too much and bring hormone levels back to normal levels.

whole wheat pasta is a bit too processed for dieting. an ok choice when tryin to gain and/or maintain. more complex less processed varieties are better.

not bad choices for cardio then. for a change perhaps change a couple of those cardio sessions to interval sessions for 20-25 minutes.

Does that mean that whole wheat bread and fiber one are not OK when dieting either?

FIber one cereal is fine, I wouldnt rely on it soley as my carb source though. and yes wholewheat bread isnt ideal either.
