Is my DIET schedule any good? Advice Please...

[SirMack]

Basically I've reduced my Meal Portions in half, and am adding more fruits/veggies to my diet as well as consuming about 128oz of water a day. Any good? or is it a bad diet? Not sure yet on what type of foods I should eat for Lunch/Dinner, but I am currently eating cereal for Breakfast, and Lunch (Wheaties, Raisen Brand). Thoughts?

Post exactly "what" you're eating for snacks, lunch, dinner...etc.. I think you'll get more help/opinions that way.

Duh! I'm sorry about that.

Right now I'm eating just a Bannana, Carrots, Celery, Apple, Orange, etc + 16oz of Water for my snacks. Usually its only like 1 Apple, or 1 Orange + water, etc.

My Morning meal is about 1 1/2 cups of Wheaties, Shredded Wheat, or Raisen Brand. Lunch is usually the same because I dont' know what to eat and I never have much of an appetite so it doesn't affect me much.

Dinner is usually a small portion of Red Meat, 2 cups of Rice, 1 cup of Peas or Corn usually with 16-32oz of Water.

I don't know what else I should eat, as I'm still doing research. But the biggest thing I'm trying to do now is drink more water, and eat less. Any thoughts?

what are you stats and goals?

Are you weight lifting and trying to build muscle or get cut up? Or just very fat and want to lose weight?

Water for dinner?
This diet will make you Anorexic. It will put your body into starvation mode.

I'm sorry, its my fault, I made that list up very quickly.

When I say "DinneR" i mean like a "dinneR" + 16oz of Water. I havn't been able to list foods yet because I'm unsure of what to eat, i'm quite ignorant in what type of foods to eat, etc.

Basically like I said earlier, Breakfast = Cereal, Lunch = Cereal, Dinner = Small portion of Meat, 2 cups of White Rice, and 1 cup of a vegetable.

I'm basically 254lbs and wanting to get downt o 200-210 lbs.

Thanks for looking, it means a lot to me that there are so many people on these boards that are willing to help.

You are going to lose weight...but also A LOT OF MUSCLE. Your bodyfat might even stay the same.

Your goal should be to lose fat.

What kind of diet do you call this?

Do you realize you have NO PROTEIN?

This is a perfect diet to lose large amounts of muscle mass and retain your bodyfat. It is very unhealthy and lacking in vital nutrients that your body needs for health and fat loss. It IS possible to reach your ideal weight but I promise you that you won't like what you look like when u get there. 1st things 1st you need adaquate protein and EFA's, then u need to drop your carbs or at least switch your sources to more fibrous greens if you NEED to eat carbs at all.

Well, I'll be working out daily for 30min-1 hour, and will be doing high rep, low weight total body work outs M W F.

So, what should I add/change to make this a better diet? So I can lose a ton of weight and keep as much muscle as possible?

Bro...change everything.

You don't understand basic nutrition. I recommend doing searches on the site for a few hours and learning about calories and nutritional ratios.

There is MORE than enough info on this board to help you and then some.

Could you perhaps give me a list of some things to look up? Perhaps a progressive list of what i need to know etc.

I basically just to lose about 35-50 lbs, and then once I get down to the weight I like I want to start bulking a little, to the point of being slightly cut. Any thoughts on the best way to get there? or any good tips?

Thanks again for letting me know.
