Here some suggestions

thanks sara, what is SF syrup and i a good recipe for making pancakes with oats?

Did you even attempt to create a diet that was some-what healthy and balanced or did you just hope that, by posting anything, someone would come and write a diet for you??

Quick nutrition lesson:
Most things 'normal' people eat are crap. Stay away from most things that are pre-packages, wrapped in brightly coloured foil, have mostly ingredients with numbers after them or foods that are dipped/coated or rolled in anything and deep fried.

You want to focus on whole foods. Things that are the least processed and that are going to offer you nutrients.

Good sources of carbohydrates (for energy) are things like whole or rolled grains, legumes, sweet potato, fruits and low fat dairy. If you do ot mind bread then sprouted breads or pumpernickel bread are your best options.

Good sources of protein (for your muscles) include lean red meats, game meats, chicken (breast), lean turkey, all forms of seafood, tofu/soy, eggs and low fat dairy.

Good sources of healthy fats (for energy and for your health) include unsaturated fats from nuts, seeds, fatty fish, olive oils and avocado.

breakfast(6am): cereal

Processed cereal is crap. Cardboard may actually be more nutritious than some types. Replace it with scotch oats or thick-wholegrain rolled oats. You also need protein in this meal. Some eggs/egg-whites or some cottage cheese would be options. Some healthy fats would not go astray either.

Add another meal after breakfast and before lunch. 6am till 12.45pm is too long between meals. You want something with some good carbohydrates, some lean protein

lunch(school)(12:45pm): a slice of cheese pizza

Pizza?? Good carbs, lean protein and (preferably) some vegetables..

lunch(home)(3:30pm): one plate white rice with about half a chicken(5 pieces)

One plate?? How much is 'one plate'. Swap this to basmatti or brown rice. Make sure the chicken grilled/steamed or baked (no added fat). Add vegetables.

evening(6:30): 3 pancakes with syrup

Check out the recipe section of the board for a plethora of good pancake recipes but they all follow the same basic principles: grind oats (how ever many you require), add some egg-whites/cottage cheese/protein powder, some vanilla essense and some cinnamon then cook as normal. Other options include adding things such as fruit.

SF syrup is sugar-free syrup.

dinner(9pm): chicken

Add vegetables and some healthy fats.
