Answers:
all three are carb heavy! if u want to lose wieght have oats and skimmed milk for bf, or eggs. 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.Health Question & Answer

Hi,

What you are eating is not a Low Carb Diet....it's a low calorie diet. Apple, Banana, and Orange juice contain Fructose which is a carbohydrate. You are probably eating around 250 grams of carbohydrates.
You will probably loose weight, but most of it will be muscle weight. You need to have a balance in order to properly loose weight. Protein helps your muscle, the more lean muscle you have the more fat you burn. You body also needs good fat to do many of it's function.

Hope this helps!Health Question & Answer

Where did you get the idea that is low carb.?
That is starving but it is not low carb.?
The carbs in your assortment are simple carbs and are the ones that should be limited. You want complex carbs in your diet.

And you need to pump up the proteins or your body will consume it own muscles.

Not healthy and NOT low carb. Fruit is very high in carbs, even though they are "natural" sugars.
Low carb specifically means more fat, more protein and LESS of things like fruits and starches. Sounds like you need to do a little more reading about it.
And yes....you NEED protein.Health Question & Answer
