Answers:
If you want to lose weight, think breakfast, lunch and dinner with two snacks in between meals.
For breakfast you might have a slice of toast (100 calories) with scrambled eggs (200 calories) and a glass of low-fat milk (80). Total: 380.
The next snack would be a low-fat diet yogurt (100 maximum). Total: 100
Lunch might consist of a meat and salad sandwich, with 2 slices of bread (200), capsicum, tomatoes, lettuce (100) and a piece of ham (100). Total: 400
An apple for a snack: 80-100 calories.
Then dinner might be a piece of lean grilled chicken (200) with roast pumpkin, potatoes, carrots (300). Total: 500.
You could have your whole day at 1480 calories, which is probably too little but your portions of food might vary and calorie counting isn't precise.

When losing weight, never think extremes. Next time you go to a chinese buffet, eat a little of the things you truly like and drink plenty of water to help you feel full. The same goes for occasions such as birthday parties. If you can't truly avoid all the "naughty" food, eat a little of it but not as much as you used to. That way you are sure to lose weight, as weight loss is about eating less than you currently eat now.
I don't have a high regard for "skinny bxtch". I have read that book and at one stage followed their diet plan, but you have to understand that the whole purpose of the book is to convince people to become vegan (consuming no animal derived products: eggs, meat, fish, gelatin, milk, yogurt). This isn't a sure fire way to make you thin.
I am also 16 and have struggled with food for a few years, however now that I am truly eating in moderation, I am slim and fantastic. Remember, fruit, vegetables, lean meats and low-fat yogurt (but watch the sugar content) are your friends.

30-40 pounds would take about 4 to 5 months. You'll have to exercise everyday, run/walk at least 30 minutes.
Eat smaller meals, like 4 or 5 a day. Eating less but more frequently will jump start your metabolism. Don't drink any soda, if your really craving a sweet drink drink juice every other day but for the most part stick to water.
Eat vegetables and fruits as snacks. If your really craving choclate and all that get slim fast bars they taste great and are really low in calories.
Eat only fish and chicken, stick to the lean meats, and absouletly no rice way to fattening. Stick to only grain bread too, but if you can don't eat bread or much carbs at all.
Stick to this and you could lose it in about 4-5 months. Good luck girl!Health Question & Answer
