Your diet could be improved.

See below:
Breakfast: 1 cup of 1% milk

Only 10 grams of protein here. Need to boost to 25-40.

Lunch: 1 cup of boiled rice
8 oz of baked-chicken
green vegetables made of brussel sprouts, cabbage, brocoli and just a bit of shredded carrots (all cooked)

That's too much protein in a meal probably. This meal would work better as 2 small meals (just divide the meal by 2 and eat it 3 hours apart. I cup of rice is like 400 calories, so that's lots of carbs in a meal.


Dinner: A cream of wheat cooked with the following ingredients:

4 heaping tablespoons of cream of wheat
1 cup of 1% milk
2 cups of water
1 teaspoon of salt
4 packets of Nutrasweet
2-3 apples

Too much carbs, not enough protein. Don't eat that many apples in a meal. Night time is where you should cut the carbs.

You need to eat more meals, include protein in each of them, and essentially aim for 5 meals of 400-500 calories depending on your energy expenditure, with at least 25-35 grams of protein

Hi, sorry for delay in reply. Thanx a lot for your reply and answer. What i will do is that i will buy a good protein-powder with a good flavor [flavor is very important] and I will add it to my morning milk and to my night dinner [cream of wheat], although I don't know if protein-powders could be cooked, i mean if it wont lose its values when cooking it

damnit, what is going on here? nobody is gonna give him any more diet advice than what Pete gave him?

if you want to lose weight eat at least 5 meals a day, preferrably 7. minimum 25g of protein per meal. your calories need to be 40% protein, 30% carbs, 30% good fats. you need to take in less calories than you are burning, which you are, but they need to be spread out throughout the day and higher quality foods. an apple a day is good, more than that is excessive. drink a gallon of water a day. use fish oil and green tea extract supplements. fish oil contains omega-3 fats which are very healthy and help burn fat. green tea extract has ecgc which can increase metabolism and help burn fat.

oh ya, and eat more at breakfast. eat as soon as you get up, it gets your metabolism going. and whey in the morning is no good because it digests too fast. i suggest a few eggs and one cup oats, and maybe your glass of milk as well. whey is only good post workout, otherwise use casein protein for the slower digestion.
